tonkie18 Posted April 16, 2023 Share Posted April 16, 2023 Hi sorry if this is a stupid question. Where is the data saved? Ive been boosting the bombs and blocks with two turbo controllers every now and again over the last few months. The issue I have is my PS4 is in bad shape and has a tendency to crash.. a lot. So this makes it harder. I now have to close out of the game every 1-2 hours to ensure it doesn’t crash. Most of the time closing the PS4 down completely to let it cool down. So I’m not getting very far. Also because I am playing on other consoles at the same time, I have the internet switched off.. so I’m assuming it’s not saving to the cloud.. so where is it saving? Or has all my progress been lost if it has crashed? I can’t find any button to ‘save’ progress so I’m just wondering where it’s getting saved and whether I need to have online switched on? That will make boosting the game even trickier as I won’t ever be able to play anything at the same time and can’t leave it overnight incase it crashes. Any help would be appreciated.

grifteskymfning Posted April 16, 2023 Share Posted April 16, 2023 I would just buy another PS4. Not sure about the UK, but a perfectly fine first gen PS4 is around £40 here in Sweden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonkie18 Posted April 16, 2023 Author Share Posted April 16, 2023 I have another PS4 but it’s in storage and was just using this one til it died completely. It runs small games and is fine if it’s not on for too long. Thanks for the reply, But it’s not really the answer I’m looking for thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it isn't overheating, then the HDD is on its last legs. Get an SSD instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Each user can manage saved data in PS4™ system storage. Select (Settings) > [Application Saved Data Management] > [Saved Data in System Storage]. Check here. It'll be a list of all saves. If it is there, you may want to temporarily connect online just to upload to the cloud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
