[quote name='Buuhan1']I'm refusing to play anymore till the patch is released, and honestly, it's painful.[/QUOTE]
Backing up your save to a flash drive, deleting the corrupted save, and restoring the backup has been confirmed to work. You can even save a backup to another profile and restore it from there.
I wouldn't stop playing because of it. I would do the following though:
1.) Don't play for too many hours in a row
2.) Save constantly
3.) Avoid the Shadow Broker mission (which is where most of the corrupted saves happen)
Besides that, there isn't anything major that should prevent you from playing the game. I'm not too optimistic about Bioware fixing this quickly, despite their quick response in the official forums. I feel like that was damage control.
