So after 17 hrs and 25 mins on a new game, I got hit with the horrid save/load bug for the first time. I was totally bummed and decided I wasn't gonna start again till they fixed this and released the Infected update. But before throwing in the towel, I decided to try something (I'm really enjoying this game since the recent 2 in 1 update) and it worked!!So here's what I did step by step. First I hit the Home button, pressed Menu and exited the game. Then pressed Menu again and went to Manage Game, scrolled down to Saved Data, selected the file (NOT Delete All) and then selected Delete From Console (DO NOT select Delete Everywhere). I had to do this twice, after the 1st time, the file was still there. After that I just loaded the game back up, then it began to Sync Files (can't remember if this started before pressing menu or after). During the Sync it froze a couple times (once around 60 something % and again at 99%) I thought it wasn't going to work, Hakuna Matata though, just give it a min and it'll go. After that was done my saved game was there (the save was a couple saves prior to the one that was corrupted, 30 mins game time, I think it took me back to the last non-corrupted save file). I have since played past that point, saved and loaded the game with no problems and I can now "Just Keep Swimming". I hope this helps everyone, let me know how it goes and pass the info to your fellow Divers. Maybe this will also help the devs figure out the issue so it can get fixed soon. I'll update this if I have another save/load issue.

What? No, no, they're asking for the error message displayed when it won't work, as they've put more checks in. This will allow them to see where the error is occurring in the code. So, if you have a broken save, can you post a screenshot of the message displayed?
This is the message I get every time I try to load a save. I have multiple saved games trying to fix the problem and I get the same message on all of them.
