Possible solution found for Mass Effect 2 save issues

M2G Writes:

Someone has posted a handy guide as to how to avoid corrupt save files in Mass Effect 2 on the PS3, which should be handy until Bioware can solve the issues.

People this is my guide posted originally in Bioware's official Mass Effect 2 board. My nick there "Valkyre4" needs to get the credit not a copy/paste random dude...

You can find the guide here:

http://social.bioware.com/f...

This is an outright lie and those folks at made2game.com need to get their facts straight!!

TANUKI5598d ago

I haven't played ME2 long enough to have this occur, but if it's happen to a majority of people, it could happen to me. So, thanks.

TreMillz5598d ago

well save issue hasnt happened to me so im good...for now :(

BattleAxe5598d ago

What a bunch of jerks over at made2game.com...Looks like another bullshit site along with Lens of Truth, Gamingbolt and Ironstar.

I bought this game the day it came out, but I've decided to wait for a patch before I start playing.

wotta5598d ago

Ah sorry, never realised it came from the Mass Effect forums, I will credit you and change the story to reflect this.

Valkyre5598d ago

Ok thanks, It's just that I hate it when people copy/paste without giving credit where its due.

Hope this helps alot of people with the problem.

Redempteur5598d ago

why do i need to be signed in to EA servers ? this isn't need for speed .. is there a need for online interractivity ? i don't get why.

distorted_reality5598d ago

News updates mainly. But considering there's only going to be limited Cerberus updates until ME3 launches, you don't really need it.

Valkyre5598d ago

You dont have to. There is option not to connect with EA servers. The problem is that the game encourages you to connect with them and the default setting is set to "on".

You can disable it and you can play offline just fine. But if the corrupt data has something to do with EA servers, you just need to avoid them entirely, thus the guide I wrote.

Blacktric5598d ago (Edited 5598d ago )

Game also sends gameplay information about your choices, if you imported a save/played the interactive comic, which class did you choose, which weapons you've used the most, etc, to Bioware. Which helps them shaping Mass Effect 3 and other games.

OmegaSlayer5598d ago

Valkyre, this is half joke, half curiosity.
How many times you tried all those different steps and how much time in trials and errors did you need to get to make the guide?

distorted_reality5598d ago

I'm wondering what the actual underlying problem is though....never had any issues at all with the PC version, and I can't see the save system being completely different on every platform.

Is very weird.

Bolts5598d ago

Fallout Vegas for the PC had a similar problem to this where saved games would get corrupted because of some odd issue with Steam cloud.

Bro missing companions: Legion, Grunt, Samara/Morinth, Javik, EDI

anast531d ago

Legion, Zaeed, and Jack are my favorites.

RiseNShine531d ago

To think that Bioware at some point was capable of doing games like this, you see those characters and remember them like good old friends, and now check ME Andromeda, Anthem, Veilguard etc and wonder what the hell happened.

anast531d ago

They lost too much talent.

IAMRealHooman531d ago

some in andromeda are decent, I agree with peebee and Vetra being good companions. Except Liam he's trash tier

anast531d ago

Liam lol I can't stand that dude.

IAMRealHooman531d ago

it's like bitch but your shirt back on, your not blue or spikey get away from me

SimpleSlave779d ago

"I started playing games yesterday" the List... Meh!

2 - else Heart.Break()
3 - Shadowrun Trilogy
4 - Wasteland 2
5 - UnderRail
6 - Tyranny
7 - Torment: Tides of Numenera

And for a bonus game that flew under the radar:
8 - Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden

Loved Alpha Protocol in all it's glorious jank. Great game.

SimpleSlave779d ago (Edited 779d ago )

Not only glorious jank, but the idea that the story can completely change depending on what you do, or say, or side with, makes it one of the most forward thinking games ever. The amount of story permutation is the equivalent of a Hitman level but in Story Form. And it wasn't just that the story changed, no, it was that you met completely new characters, or missed them, depending on your choices. Made Mass Effect feel static in comparison.

Alpha Protocol was absolutely glorious, indeed. And it was, and still is, more Next Gen than most anything out there these days. In this regard at least.

Pity.
