How do I disable auto saves for this game? The game is making an auto save damn never every 3 minutes and each time it does, it freezes the game and sometimes crashes it. How do I disable auto saves? I am playing on Xbox Series X because I cannot afford to spend $6,000 for a gaming PC with parts that will be outdated in a months time.

It sadly can't be done.

Also, FYI, a $6000 gaming PC will last you for YEARS. My ~$3000 PC back in 2013 lasted me 6 years, and was still working fine when I sold it in 2019 (still regret I did that, it was a good machine).

My problem with PC gaming is the costs and the parts being outdated every year with new ones being made and not meeting minimum specs of certain games with every passing year. Like if I buy an Nvidia 4070, next year oh hey got 4080 now and you need it to run the next game released that year because it wont work with last years model. PC gaming master race my ass!

Not looking to get into a PC vs console discussion (to each their own, and I respect that), that's actually because the PC parts are upgraded so quickly, so does the games need to be to fully utilize those improved components (which, frankly, NO ONE needs - that's just marketing). Same with consoles - you want to play the newest titles, you need to buy a new console.

And you can do a lot more with a PC than a console. No idea if you can check the email or watch a movie on a console. I chose PC because I can do everything on it - including my job. And if you have a RTX 4070...that thing rivals my RTX 3080 - at almost half the price. :|

But you really don't need the newest and greatest hardware unless you want to play the latest titles at max settings.
In my PC I mentioned above, I had a GTX 1080 between 2016 and 2020. And unlike consoles, older PC parts can be used for other things - use the old GPU to add more monitors, use the whole thing as a storage server, keep track of a Twitch stream (I don't know, i don't stream at all), or use it as a media center to the TV.

I don't buy into that "PC master race" BS. It all comes down to need and preference. I have had a NES, SNES, N64 and PS3 - after that, I did most things on a PC, including gaming. But then I am pretty much stuck in 2015 gaming, because i HATE online requirements (Steam can burn for all I care). Hence buying my games here on GoG.

Sad to hear you can't disable the Cyberpunk 2077 autosaves, but that's not a console exclusive issue. I got my games on an NVMe SSD, and even that stutters sometimes if there are a lot going on and THEN.the game wants to save on top of it all.

I bought a "gaming" PC in 2015 Nvidia GTX 730 I think it was only $300 for the whole computer pre-built, can't even run Fallout 3 or New Vegas on it without issues. And now every new computer is forcing Windows 11 which half of my games don't even run on Windows 10 so even less will work on the newer OS. Yet Newest OS is needed to run the newer parts. And the most current pre-built I can find with the current parts Nividia RTX 4070 is $6,000. PC gaming is expensive.

Dude, the GT 730 is trash. That's not even a GTX card, and the x30-suffix is a bottom tier card. Only thing lower that I know of is the GT 710, and that thing can barely play 4K video without stuttering.

I agree that PC-gaming is expensive these days - like many other things, it suffered heavily under Covid-19. Add the scalpers, excess Nvidia greed, and you got a recipe for certified fleecing.

Depending on what games you want to play and at what resolution, I would suggest the RTX 4060 instead, or the older RTX 3070. Would work very well for 1080p gaming. Buying some parts used could also be an option to save some money (pictures of the CPU-pins and / or the GPU actually mounted and working in a system would be a requirement for me).

But this is getting off topic. Has the main question been answered satisfactory?

Funny thing is, that question you found on Microsoft came from my own friend who had the same question. We were posting this autosave question on multiple sites to see if anyone has a solution because we have not found anyone who has an answer and CD Projekt Red refuses to reply to our bug reports.

I'll leave the question as unanswered, maybe some day we will get an update that will let us change more of the game settings.
