I downloaded both the new patches and it played great for about an hour and a half until I went to fast travel and the game crashed. I rebooted but now every time I try to load a save file the loading screen comes up but the file never loads. The pictures in the background change and the roulette wheel keeps spinning but the file never loads. I'm losing my patience with this game sadly, can any offer any advice?

I've tried deleting the system cache and installing the game to my HD but neither worked

11:10 am EST,

Can't load game either, screen comes up, wheel spins, background changes, the tip doesn't and the sound goes off after the first loop.

I'm with ya man, its a shame I can't play this game more often then I can. How do I fix this?

The only advice I can really offer is to try deleting the patch, and play offline/decline the patch updates from now on until there's a positive fix for everyone.

Yah I lost my last save for my level 7 character. The wheel would just spin forever. I decided that it was corrupt and deleted it. I had a save (not to far back) before that so I tried that one and it worked. That save that was corrupt was the one I tried to load under the broken patch. I haven't tried my level 35 character yet though. I'll try it later today when I have time. I'll post if I too have a problem with that one.

The only way I can now play my previous saves is by deleting the Update and Dead Money, I'm so gutted. How can they f#ck up so badly?
