You may or may not be aware that the perk for starship shields is currently bugged, and working in reverse. If it’s supposed to add 20% to your shields, it is actually subtracting 20%. Kinda surprised this hasn’t made the first wave of bug fixes....
I think the bug is also related to assigning crew members to your ship that have the shield perk themselves, because I’ve had it trigger for me twice and Vasco was a crew member both times.
There seems to be a problem with the Shield Systems perk at either rank 2 or 3 that causes you to LOSE shield strength rather than gain it. It can occur inconsistently since I only have the issue on one of my ships and only now that I’m in new game+, but it’s causing my Razorleaf to actually have max shields of around 270...
Okay, I might have found a fix but I didn’t think to reload any saves to verify it 100%
I took my bugged ship out and boarded a random low leveled enemy ship, cleared the hostiles on board, and undocked while in the new ship. I then boarded my original ship again and when I undocked again my shields were displaying the stats they were supposed to.
I think adding another ship to your collection might correct the glitch, so buying or finding a free one could also help. Or I got lucky and it randomly fixed itself, hard to say for sure.
My loading screen looks like it completes, then it flashes black, displays the loading screen again, but after the flash the loading animation has stopped and the screen is completely locked up....
Had the same issue the other night. After several attempts to load my autosave and a restart of my Deck, I finally fixed it by loading a much older save first then loading the more recent save from there.
In case it helps anyone figure out a pattern to the issue, my bugged save was on a space station and the old backup save was on my ship in orbit over some planet.
I’m putting this together because I posted a while ago about using IRC to acquire ebooks on Reddit, and there was a metric shit ton of interest from others in learning how to do it. Much of this info is available on the net, but it can be difficult to track down if you don’t know exactly what to look for....

Is anyone who are on steamdeck seeing their game freeze when trying to load a save?
