Well... Save Corrupted?

Post » Sun Apr 24, 2011 9:20 pm

I honestly played for a good 10 hours on release, and I went to get on this morning before I leave for work, and the game states that the save I have has content that is no longer available... I didn't even add the Pre-Order bonus, have no DLC on the console for the game, and then I click continue anyways, it tells me the Storage device does not exist.... So what the hell happened to my save? because none of them work, and I am extremely pissed right now...

That would help, if I wasn't on the console version.

So does anyone have any idea if they are going to fix this issue that is going on right now? Honestly, I would love to continue playing knowing that when I save I can trust that I will always be able to go back to that save and be able to use it and play on it...


I hope someone can help me here.

Two thoughts.

1) Have you tried going to the Bug forum for your console?

2) I've always been paranoid about save file corruption in gamesas games. So, I tend to do alot of manual saves - typically, I keep a rotating set of at least 10 manual saves for each character.... once I'm up to as many saves as I want, I start doing the new saves over the oldest one. And I try to save often, like every 10 minutes. Quick & Auto saves just aren't enough.

You can read about it and add your complaints to this thread:

There are also some quick fixes in there and info on where to find your saves.
