lolwut? I'm up to 3 second autosaves with 2 bases (one a terrain unedited wooden hut) and an NVMe. It doesn't hang for the full 3 seconds, but that's what it reports as save time. And they supposedly fixed the terrain bug.

Plus the weird extra unwarned freezes introduced with mistlands, and the weird new input lag, and the new enemies that force project - striking you without ever touching you with a simple wave of their mandible...
