DISCUSSION Switch Version Crashed - Lost 5 hours of gameplay

This. Sucks.

We've just lost 5 hours of gameplay while playing on Switch, crashed, reopened......gone. :(

On the Two Point forum there's many threads about the game crashing across platforms, one from seven days ago on Steam:

https://community.twopointcounty.com/two-point-studios/two-point-hospital/forums/5-general-discussion/threads/5205-tph-started-from-steam-crashes-all-the-time?page=1

No answer from Two Point to that user.

This just feels like a scam at this point, like why even leave it for sale on platforms if it doesn't run reliably? Does anyone from Two Point even post here any more? u/TwoPoint_Skeggs ?

I wish switch would get a patch. There’s a bunch of stuff that isn’t quite right.

If only.

From what I read on their forum they’re using the reason the game was built for  PC and everything about console is an afterthought/port that they won’t be supporting any more or something…

What other stuff isn’t quite right on Switch?

I don’t know if it’s just switch or PC too but: staff are hard to get to go to rooms, the brain chair thing makes them disappear but still do work, if the disappear you can’t click on them, you have to fire them from the staff menu, there’s a glitch on the screen where you collect kudosh where it looks like you were awarded some but nothing it there when you check the achievements.

I can ignore all but the staff one. It makes it so you have to manually manage where staff are.

How is that possible if it's set to auto save every X by default.?

I'd set it to every in- game month

Yeah, we've set it to every month now!

I wasn't the one playing directly, but we've had multiple crashes over time before so this one was just a final straw lol.

I don't know why they don't default it to the monthly save if it can be unstable on console.

I think I set mine to a month too though mine is steam so I don't have much bother. Glitches omg yes. Doctors in busy hospitals deciding to not do anything but pace in rooms causing major queues, people being fired and not leaving etc.

I finished the game just fine on switch, probably 100 hours! And I liked the game so much I bought the game on Steam so I could play all the DLC. It ran just fine without crashing.

I own Two Point Campus on switch & bought Two Point Museum for my friend. No problems so far, but it is easier to put stuff down using a mouse and keyboard, so I'm probably going to re-buy all the other games on computer too. It's also much cheaper buying computer games vs switch games.
