Saved games lost

Post » Thu Apr 07, 2011 6:47 pm

I've seen a lot of people complaining about corruted saved files. I don't get a corrupt file message. I just don't have the files to load. I've only played about 5 hours, but it's still annoying to start over every time. I select continue playing and it ALWAYS starts me out with the tutorial with Sunny behind the salloon. I go back to the menu to load a saved game and the last one available is #4. I've saved 7. How can I fix this? Any ideas?

Use hard saves, i.e. go into the UI and save that way. The latest patch was supposed to fix it, but turns out it didn't.

I always save three times, and overwrite the oldest each time. Just helps with annoying bugs, glitches and errors that pop up at random times.
