2nd time my save got ruin due to sync issue, total 150hr gameplay, (60hr 1st time, 90hr 2nd time).  Now my cloud restore point is ****** Jan 12.  why can't they go back to the old fashion save etc etc, instead they put the crappy cloud sync.

This is why I NEVER save to the cloud.  I play on Xbox 360 and every save it to the system's local HDD.  If I need to backup a save for some reason, I use a USB thumb drive.  Also, saving frequently is probably a good idea.  If my latest save somehow gets corrupted, I will lose no more than 30 minutes...

I disabled cloud storage right after I first installed Origin. Good old saving method on your HDD still works and when you are reinstalling the game or you'll get a new computer, simply transfer the folders from Documents and you're good to go. Although what pisses me off that every now and then cloud somehow manages to activate itself and tries to sync my data.

 

And as Poisd2Strike said, saving your game often really helps mitigate the damage - and not just quick and autosaves, but hard saves. There has always been an occasional game-breaking bug present (for example Silverite Mines in Awakening).

[Rizilliant]

Yea i am disabling too.. Its not only annoying, but confusing when it tells you they dont match up, and you would assume choosing the newest time/date would be correct... Wrong.. I lost several hours this way.. ALWAYS choose your computers save, or disable cloud.. Origin sucks!  Well, anything tied to EA does, so.. yea..

Glad I never tested it (one of the settings I disabled)

It is up to YOU to manage your cloud saves vs your local saves. If you made the mistake of syncing your saves to cloud and in the process lose your local saves, that is your own fault.

Ignorance is unfortunately not catered for with things like this.

 

A lot of us were very quick to disable cloud saves, knowing how easy it is to make that mistake. Perhaps you should have done the same, realizing you don't fully grasp the concept of syncing.

Honestly your entire post sounds very apologetic for biowares cloud storage and very condescending toward the op. Forums generally get upset people and your post isn't in anyway or shape helping the op. It's just a blatant in your face response. That type of behavior is why threads get locked.

XBone doesn't have an option to disable the cloud save, or the automatic sync-to-cloud function, but so far, I've been lucky that nothing bad has happened. If I ever run into the problem that others have had, I'll probably just switch to playing offline until I'm done my first playthrough, to avoid accidentally deleting anything important.

[Frenrihr]

Yeah they always desync, fisr time it happened i was stupid enough to let them overwrite my computer saves, then i logged to my game and found that i lost all my progress, i was mad, real mad, and from that day everytime that **** happened i will just dismiss all the cloud thata for my computer saves.

*edited*, there should be some sort of guide that explain this to users in game so you can be careful about this, they just let this happen of course people gonna have this problem and its not the consumers obligation to know this is the producers obligation to explain their *Edited* systems to the consumers, we paid them.

Apologetic? Not at all.

 

You can't blame Origin/Bioware because you pressed the wrong button. "sync to cloud" vs "sync to local" should be self explanatory. They assume some level of intelligence from people using their service.

If you have a feature, regardless of whether it's known for destroying your game or not, and it breaks your game you come to the feedback forums to talk about it.

What your essentially saying is "hey dummy! You shouldn't have done it, and you should feel bad for even making a post about it!"

Bugs or not you make a post about it on the feedback on the forum because that's what this forum is about, feedback. Cloud v hard storage has always favored hard storage, but people who chose cloud feature will experience issues. It's up to bioware how many issues users may experience with their system to figure it out and if no one reports it then the status state the same.

Intelligence or not, your argument is flawed.

But deleting the wrong batch of saves is on the user, unless the messages given about the saves are somehow inaccurate. I'm still not clear what went wrong for Rizilliant. Why wouldn't the newer saves be the ones you want?

[line_genrou]

I never store my saves on cloud ever since Witcher 2 and how it slowed the loading process

Deleted:  Double post.. Grrr! 

[Rizilliant]

Were you heavily picked on in school this week? All of your posts are unnecessarily rude, childish, and ignorant.. Grow up fella.. Being the "internet tough guy" has the exact opposite effect your hoping for.. No one is impressed, or intimidated!

 

Some of the posters here may very well be young people, who have not yet gained said knowledge.. I highly doubt you were blessed with full knowledge of everything at birth! Pull your head, out of your... Yea... Just grow up!

I wish i could tell you.. To this day, i cannot wrap my head around it.. One might think i mistakenly clicked the wrong button, but that is not what happened.. Ill not claim to be a copding wiz, but id put my money on it being the result of EA produced software...  *shrug

Cloud saves are garbage with steam too.

 

First thing you should turn off. Ideally, back up saves locally as well.

I agree, I was just posting because I found someones post a bit overly condescending. The OP's already sour about his situation. I WILL SAY that rereading his OP I can imagine why someone would be annoyed rather than sympathetic with his situation. OP you gotta chill out when you make feedback threads.

If Bioware implements a broken feature it is on them. No matter how much you are paid to say otherwise.

[Kantr]

Steam also does cloud saves and it's settings are even less clear than Origin. Just use local all the time, that should be obvious.

 

If you really want to complain, do it on EA Origin forum not Bioware (who have no control over Origin)

[devSin]

BioWare doesn't implement anything.

Origin handles cloud sync on PC, and the system is responsible for it on console. It has nothing to do with BioWare, though they should suggest to all users that it be turned off unless you're absolutely sure you need it.

[Wurm_king]

I had the same issue with the C&C collection. it happens when your machine drops its connection to the internet for only a second. the game tries to auto save and instead of asking for your permission it just saves locally and when you try to load it later the local data does not match the cloud and well you get the issue you have now. its why I hate origins.

[bug_age_inquisition]

if that happened to me i would never buy from bioware again. wow.

[C0uncil0rTev0s]

While Dubya75 has a point there's a lot gone missing in that message.

 

You see, cloudstorage was designed to help people save their files in the Cloud, so player can access those from literally anywhere. Secondary goal was to help people keep and automatically organize their savegames in case something local fucks up.

 

So if the feaure that was invented in Origin, is supported by DA:I and is turned on by default it has to work right, no? And the case op describes is the feature not working properly.

 

You can't blame a cop for chasing robbers, which are not a part of a banking system and are not supposed to be by default feature of banks, right?
