papawhiskey89 0 Posted August 20, 2014 Had high hopes for this PC patch but still not able to fix my corrupted save. I thought the patch would recover corrupted data? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
saxerrts 0 Posted August 20, 2014 so @pappawhiskey89 you have the new PC patch and it did NOT restore your corrupted save? Doesnt give me very high hopes to get my save restored when they release the console patch. If it does not restore my save I will move heaven and earrh to get a refund. I refuse to wait any longer for CM to fix something that has been going on since release of game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Really sorry to hear it hasn't @apawhiskey89, the dev team have asked if they can get a copy of your save file to take a look at.If you can go to into “*steam install dir*\userdata\*userid*\255220” and send all the files in this folder to communitysupport@codemasters.com I'll pass it on to them. It would be helpful to know the spec of your rig so please send that over too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NoSskilz 1 Posted August 20, 2014 Im on the 360 and it looks like upgrading the cars is corrupting the files. All I did was run the Lancia Delta challenge and went from Gold to Plat and when I was done went to my cars and to the Lancia. One thing I thought was strange was the car jumped from lvl 14 to level 20. I upgraded the car in 2 more spots now a total of 3. Iwent and cosed the game out like I should then went back to check it before I back it up and it was corrupted. Luckly I backup my save after each session so I dont get pissed off if it does happen. Backing up to a USB might take afew minutes cause you have to check your save first but its worth it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AlainAlexandre 0 Posted August 21, 2014 Great, after promoting this game even after two account blocked with the save corruption bug here is what I get as a reward 30 minutes before a club event I tried to do to keep guys playing: my 3rd account just got locked with same problem. WHOOOoOOOOOoHOUUUuUUU !Restarted it with a save game I made this week... Just lost a bunch of cars, 27 online levels... About 8 hours racing. Is it coming or what ? Most addicted fans are getting REALLY pistoff. Not for loosing save game... No, for loosing it constantly and have to wait for a fix to be released among 354 other fixes.Please, other time something major like this affect the game, fix that alone, then release other fixes.Save corruption are driving customers nuts !!!!!!!!!!!!

M1Rasco 0 Posted August 21, 2014 After my Corrupt Save on my 360, I was able to start over with two separate save spots using copy onto the backup spot every time I finish playing the game. I no longer play any portion except the challenges every week ,without any purchases of vehicles or upgrades to the only car in my garage. This Sucks, but I have almost made a million dollars so.. I guess the fun of car purchase/upgrade will wait for the coming winter..I mean Patch. Most likely a Sasquatch will come by the garden first.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
saxerrts 0 Posted August 21, 2014 Went to a NEW REVIEW released yesterday on this game and you guessed it, not one mention of any bugs or pronlems? How the hell could a reviewer not hear of these issues or did he just not want to mention them for fear of the big bad wolf knoxking his door down. Disgraceful. I am not saying I dont like the game, but for any consumer yet to have purchased it, I would certainly want to know about them. And I find it hard to believe that the person reviewing the game didnt.

saxerrts 0 Posted August 21, 2014 @loore if it is true that the ps fix is ready why are rhey not releasing it? Surely they are not in bed with Microsoft so why not get the fix live first? Seems to me that would be what they would want to do, beat xbox. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

People power let's put a stop to these cowboys once and for all. See my earlier post. I got a refund from MS. I've seen at least one person on this forum getting a refund from Sony and Im sure Steam would cave if you kicked up a fuss in numbers.Take the money away from 'em.......Thats the only solution and the problem with Codies over the last 4/5 years will not be fixed until this solution is taken up by the consumer.
