Xbox One standby mode causing save issues for The Witcher 3 – report
A few reports on Reddit and The Witcher 3 forums have cropped up yesterday of users losing save progress when putting their Xbox One consoles on standby while the game is running.
The issue can be manifested in a couple of different ways. Some are reporting that upon turning the console back on and resuming the game, they get the message “you cannot save right now.” For others, the game gets stuck on the loading screen and would lose a few hours worth of progress when it eventually works after restarting.
If that happens to you after turning the console back on, restart the game and see if you’ve lost any progress. If you did, delete local save files and download the ones in the cloud, provided they’re older. Otherwise, restarting the game should automatically load the most the recent save.
Until this issue has been resolved, it would probably be best to save and close the game manually after every session.

Mickers_is_my_fav_jr Weird that this glitch was in the game at launch imo.
Wouldn't it be more likely for there to be bugs at launch because they haven't seen all the bugs because there hasn't been that many people that play a game before launch.
The whole standby feature on Xbox One causes me problems all the time and I constantly have to unplug and reset my xbox to play certain games and get all kinds of things to work.

Staggie Really contemplating buying this game, worth it?
It seems like a lot of fun. Kind of reminds me of Skyrim.

I would imagine this would only concern a few amount of people, if you don't put your Xbox One on standby mode, you should be fine with the game.
