    Why is this news? Do many devs not fix buggy saves?

    I’ve sent more than a few to a few different devs at their request, it helps them immensely to have a buggy save, because sometimes they can’t recreate the conditions.

      I remember having a Far Cry 3 save bug that went unfixed for years (idk if it ever even got fixed). I would keep 2-3 different saves handy just to not lose all of my progress.

        Right but that’s a hell of a different situation than saying you are on your own, we don’t want your save.

        Pretty sure EA/FC has a bug reporting feature if not an email or forum you can use to submit saves and talk about issues and they get looked into.

        Not everything CAN be fixed, and sometimes it’s not a “save issue bug”

          Yeah, this was a long time ago too when things were different. I know many people had the same issue though to no avail, and with a ton more hours under their belt.
