Same Crash on Switch (67869)

I was previously experiencing the loading screen crash from saving in my cyclops. The patch released and my save became playable again, but not for long. I'm now experiencing almost exactly the same crash at "Loading 40%... Loading world 10%". This time it does get far enough to play voice lines and show crush depth notifications like I mentioned in my last post.
This time I saved in my PRAWN suit in an area that I believe is called "the junction" or "the river" or something (near the Disease Research Facility), at the bottom of one of those green underwater rivers.

Had my save busted previously with the cyclops problem and was really excited to get back at the game, only to have it die on me again less that a day later
Yep, I started experiencing similar problems this morning. I saved last night in my Prawn Suit, whilst exploring the Inactive Lava Zone. I tried to play this morning... "Loading 40% (40s)... Loading world 10% (15s)", then it crashes.
same here! I've been doing a massive overhaul of my base for the last couple days- including 2 moonpools, one incomplete. now anytime I swim near them or go above my base's top walkable depth (which is 64m) my game crashes. this is already my second attempt at a playthrough and my base took way too much work to just start over again before its even finished ??? hopefully this gets patched soon
You probably didn't lose your save on the Switch, the game just crashes before it can load it. They should (in theory) be able to patch it and you can pick up where you left off. It just sucks that it keeps happening. I picked up the game on launch day, and there has been significantly more time where it doesn't work than when it has worked...
Playing on the nintendo switch lite, digital copy of the game
Yeah, have the exact same issue as you I assume. Had just finished a very important part of story progression at a very low depth and after the final chevron encoded, saved and jumped through. Now the save is corrupted. Had also been boomed by the Cyclops glitch but college starts again tomorrow so maybe for the best
I found the final area first then the thermal plant, did finding one of those do it?
I'm pretty sure it's not the lava zone causing the crash, active or inactive. I had been down there several times before entering the Thermal Plant (couldn't find a P tablet for ages) and saved at least 10 times. Typically had been saving outside the suit just in case but obviously, as shown by me crashing, was not remembering to do it every time.
