Crytek, Please Remove Save File Copy Protection

Post » Thu Dec 02, 2010 5:08 pm

Hey guys, I just read this thread: http://www.gamesas.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=42&t=24117 but it seems to be going ignored by Crytek. I am glad there are others venting similar issues.

Does anyone know how to get in contact with Crytek regarding the save being copy protected? I personally have lost at least half dozen saves due to being unable to back up my save. Unfortunately this generation of consoles aren't as reliable as past and this locked save nonsense just makes it worse.

I am actually considering going for the platinum trophy, as it is I am 2 chapters away from finishing it on normal and plan to replay and get collectables etc to 100% but if I am going to run the risk of losing my save then it is not worth it.

Several games have been corrected by patches to unlock the copy protection such as Motorstorm 2, Resident Evil 5 and Dead Nation (lost my progress on both due to this originally).

I'd also like to ask if anyone knows if online stats are saved online, as in if I play on a different PS3 do my stats carry over and are not locked to the PS3/copy locked save. It may seem like a silly question but when my PS3 broke on me before I lost all of my Red Faction Guerrilla stats, they are kept online but you start from scratch unless you have the save, and the online file was locked!

If anyone from Crytek manages to read this can you please comment on the issue?

Thanks in advance.
