Re: Am i the only 1 botherd with the saving system ?
Yes, it would be nice if the actual time/date stamp of a saved game was visible. The internal (game) date would be a nice thing to see as well.
Another thing that is missing: Delete a game! You have to use Windows Explorer to go into the game directory and manually delete a game right now.

Re: Am i the only 1 botherd with the saving system ?
Why didn't you type a descriptive name when it asks for one?
I don't name my saves "slot 1"...
At the very least I'll put in:
"Game 1 - main"
"Game 1 - Last bigbattle"
and such.

That's a good thing but it'll take time to write or to come up with a disprictive name.You'll have to keep changing names after things such as finishin a quest,doing bounty hunting but u encounter a pirate so u'll have to save between or before, saving halfway through,etc...

Buh, wha?
Save 3 times per encounter???
If you're wanting to eliminate all risk, why not just turn on the invulnerability cheat code...

Personally, I only save once or twice per session, and believe retreat from a superior enemy is a perfectly valid combat strategy.

Re: Am i the only 1 botherd with the saving system ?
I save when I quit and when I win some major conflict. Otherwise the Autosave is good enough backup for me. I can always replay one system.
As save game names I use shipnames so I know which slot refers to which ship.

Re: Am i the only 1 botherd with the saving system ?
Hmmm...i guess i never thought of it that way.I just liked this motto "Better safe that sorry".That's why i kept saving,just in case.But as i said,i never thought of it that way.Without the risk element the game is no fun.I've started a new page in playing recently.Thx guys
