alexPSCE 0 Posted July 9, 2014 thanks codemasters for fixing the issue on pc, hopefully that means that your console using customers will be fixed soon. i still have an outstanding question, ill end my post with it for codemasters to answer (not pessimistic customers): can we expect our saves "resurected" from this patch, or is the situation such that we must start over regardless, just now with assurance that our next save wont be corrupted? thanks~alex98sc10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NoSskilz 1 Posted July 10, 2014 I am not playing this game till they fix it fix the 360. It will be the last CM game I get on release. Now it 2 games in a row they screwed up on game saves. Its probably best to wait 3 months after release to make sure they got their shit straight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Operator1 4 Posted July 10, 2014 @Loore : In the process of fixing the corrupt game-save issue, did you guys discover any clues as to potential causes? For those of us on consoles who have not been affected & have not yet been issued this patch, is there anything players can do (or avoid doing) to take preventative measures against losing our saves (until the patch becomes available to us)? Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks. I read somewhere that it was a glitch related to car tuning and car setups that caused the corruption bug. Loore has stressed several times that the bug was unrelated to Grid 2's one and it seems to make sense since Grid 2 didn't have car tuning / car setups.And from personal experience? No. The bug happens randomly once you've got a couple hundred races online. It might have something to do with the cars you buy so a good idea might be to try and just use only Loaner cars but eh... I'm not sure that's a real solution. Nobody in their right minds would WILLINGLY drive a loaner car.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Think that's moer a question for @Hatta rather than @Looer given @Hatta oversees the F1 games while @Loore oversees Grid Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Did your garage get fixed if you had cars that said they were worth $0 ? Supposedly the save corrupt had something to do with the garage and liveries from what @loore mentioned in another thread.

DLZ72 0 Posted July 11, 2014 it's not going to fix it . I had to start over to play, so it overwrote my progress. unless you all have that info saved for us we are all still screwed. I'll keep an eye out for patch , but I'm not playing it again till then & still may get rid of it & all other Codemasters games i own & never purchase one again if I have to start it all over like grid 2 done to me twice . I'm fed up with your co. releasing unfinished/untested racing games. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
todd 5 Posted July 11, 2014 where should i save my file until it gets fixed, so i can still play and the saved corrupted file doesn't get overwritten? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SublimedNine 0 Posted July 11, 2014 Not sure that you can, if you re-start the game it overwrites your details going from what other people have said on here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
