This absolutely pissed me off..Has this happened to anybody else?

My psychic powers tell me you play on PS3.

You are correct sir

Yep, known bug for PS3 users. Sorry. u.u

I think there is a workaround but I can't think of it offhand, I don't own a PS3. It has something to do with loading a prisoner save to make a new game.

I had the same on PC. Now I use different save folders but it was very annoying

Oh! That reminds me i plugged a flash drive in my ps3 to put my save file on to it so i could play it at mu friends house..it should still be on there

I hope it is, and if I were you I would keep my main save on the flash drive until that bug is fixed.

Thank you for mentioning PC..it made me think of my flash drive

That just happened to my husband and I last night.. He had already been playing for a while and finally got me to play. So last night I set my person up and played. At one point I did look to make sure his file was still there and it was. But then tonight when he logged on his save file was not there. We thought it would be the same as Oblivion which we both have save files...this really svcked. He had done so much more than I had. If I would have known this I would have not set up my character yet. I really hope they fix this soon. It was a major bummer for my husband to lose everything he had done. I felt really bad.

PS3 bug, happens to me to, luckily i dont start new games until i'm done with my first.

Save your old file to a USB before starting a new game, if the new game overwrite your old save files, you can still move it back to the ps3 and it should be fine then.

Wow that's some pretty [censored] up [censored]!!!!!!!!!!!!

That shouldn't be possible. Unless you're talking about the 3 autosave slots. Those are constantly overwritten.

All my save files vanished from the load screen for me.I checked the save game folder and only the 3 auto saves were in it everything else just vanished.never had a issue like this before.I had to delete the .bak of the end of the file name to get it to work i lost a lvl 60 pure mage was rather pissed off about but what can you do the game is broken

One of my saves mysteriously disappeared too, and I am on a PC. I think some of those PS3 things aren't PS3 things.

Anyone have this happen on xbox 360?

Many people will have several characters played at once, so I wonder what is causing this? I don't plan on playing more than one character at once, but it's still nice to hear of this issue.

I'm running 11 characters at present (long story) never lost a save so far on 360.

I have two saves on the ps3. I can make a third, try to make a fourth and poof, the third one has been overwritten. I like trying out as many builds as i possibly can and having them getting overwritten is incredibly annoying.
