Another issue is that the game auto-saves constantly. It was put in to prevent duping where you drop the item and dashboard,

I believe the primary reason is to maintain progress given that you can’t make your own incremental saves through the menu much as you would in Skyrim or Fallout. The game has always made plenty of saves.

And let’s not turn this into a duping discussion please.

About a week ago I experienced a crash and when I relaunched the game a large yellow/orange bar progressed across the screen before Claptrap started dancing and the result seemed to “roll back” a session, and not in a helpful way. I lost the last three SDU upgrades I had purchased before the crash. Fortunately, I discovered I still had the money and was able to rebuy them. The experience felt less than friendly, and petty.

The alternative to the game rolling back to an earlier version is you completely losing the save file due to file corruption. Either it was loading the .sav.tmp file equivalent on XBox, or it was redownloading from the cloud. If you want to make sure your cloud syncs are fully up to date, you need to quit and restart. I believe the backup save files (if it’s the same as BL2) get updated whenever you switch character.

The ugly Claptrap progress bar just seems to be the new standard since the most recent patch.

The one during the Claptrap dance sequence is a progress bar for initialising the shaders. PC has had it a bit longer. Personally, I find it reassuring to know that Clappy isn’t simply stuck in a loop - that’s usually when I go grab a drink.
