Unlocks not saving - Potential workaround - Please advise

Post » Sun Jan 30, 2011 10:13 pm

Hi guys,

We received a tip from a community member who suggested this as a work around for unlocks not saving:

The default mutiplayer screen is bugged and will not save anything you unlock whilst in that screen (Weapons, attachments, mystery dog tags, suit modules).

The only work around i have found and which has worked for many other people is to join a server, preferably an empty one and unlock any equipment etc in that screen.

After you have finished that leave the server so it says "Updating Profile" then exit the game and start it again to double check but all of the unlocks should now be saved.
So, essentially you should try unlocking your items whilst being connected to a server, instead of doing it from the main menu.

Please give this a shot and let us know your results :) This will help us find the root cause of the issue and resolve it completely!

Thanks!

omg what a s***** way just fix it.... next time rls a game when its finished -.- the beta worked better Oo

hi,

I removed the g_enableInitialLoginScreen = 0 command out of the autoexec.cfg and now I am able to save every Unlocks, Kills for the modules...

If you use this command delete this.

He's right! It works!

Remove this command and then it works! :)

Cry-Adam!! Put this on the first page as solution!!

P.S.: I know this is not the right place, but in this was you probably read it:
Please allow the server admins to make slightly higher round times without "loosing" the ranked status...
At least for Capture the relay and Extraction. I think it would be more fun to play maybe up to 10min a map.

Not for me - I don't even have an autoexec.cfg (unless I'm missing something huge, and I don't think I am) and I'm definitely still having unlock issues. I can actually see the name and loadout of the custom class I unlocked, I just can't use it. It's teasing me.

I just reached lvl. 30 and my suit modules don't upgrade it's like playing at lvl. 1. This is because my unlocks are not saving and it's so frustrating to keep trying to unlock the module levels. I never expected this game to be so bad. I have tried many advices , none seemed to work. There needs to be an official fix for this stupid problem.

I don't know if anybody has the very same problem as I do but my problem is that the first half of my "support bonus assessments" got locked again after a server crash several level ups ago and it doesn't want to unlock again. Check the pictures I put up and you can see that these should be unlocked by now. :/ I hope we'll get some patch soon that will fix all these stat tracking problems since these issues are pretty annoying. :/

Btw I have already posted this in another other mp stat problems topic but since it has about 26 pages I thought I would write it here as well so that this glitch or whatever it is will more likely to get some attention. :P

Ooh and I also have my profile on "default".

Its just not even a 50% workaround for me.

I've got the PCs "limited edition" (just if s.o. needs to know)
and play at ranked and official servers

fixed with this workaround - "Normal" equipment settings are saved, when done while connected to a game server.
unfixed - secret Dog tags are ALLWAYS lost after server switching or game restart and have to be unlocked again.
unfixed - "limeted edition" Bonus equipment has ALLWAYS to be unlocked again, after game restart.
unfixed - Server filter has to be set up again after leaving a server or restarting a game.
unfixed - some suit features need to be unlocked after game restart every time (in my case: armor feature is shown as equiped in the overview screen of my 1st own class, but if i switch into the settings of this class it is unlocked every time I restart the game -,-)

So lets be serious ppl..... this is ridiculous!!!!!
U need to fix this with a real patch and don't put us off with some crappy "workaround"! -,-
You've spended so much work and money in programming such an entertaining, most times terrific looking and motivating SP but you are unable to programm an expirience featured MP that SAVES the XP? OO

I bet Gabe Newell can't stop laughing his ass off -,-

I thought it was just me losing my weapon-upgrades but apparently it's yet another bug which needs to be fixed. Beginning to wonder why the game has been released period. This must be the most unfinished piece of software-crap EVER. Yes we got a workaround for this yes we have a workaround for that. FINISH the product BEFORE releasing the game!! I realize no game can do without patches after release but this is getting to the point of being ridiculous, even scandalous. Reallly feel screwed and we haven't even kiss&cuddled before you ripped me a new one. :( Hope you're enjoying my money!!

i agree. it is like we are unpaid beta testers. don't release a game until it's finished ffs!

And what if I already used my 5 custom mystery dog tags, they didn't save, but now I can't choose them again? Lol, the game was using for some time one of these dog tags, even thou in menu it appeared locked (you know, since it desn't save them). How to get refund?

I would also like to ask a question - where's this custom digital (or something) scar weapon skin? Can't find it anywhere..

And... finally.. since thanks to this limited edition giving you acces to level 5 from start - shouldn't I have something more then 1/1/1 in stats? I somehow can't find a way to edit it..

for me it kept resetting them so i could pick them again...

the Camo skin is under the Scar weapon menu... where u can select attachments, barrels, etc. near the bottom.

Image

to use the holo attachment u have to unlock an Attachment Unlock first which is pretty stupid imo since i thought the point of the LE was to get access to preset class loadouts as it says on the LE pamphlet that comes with the LE of the game.

yea i had the same 1/1/1 in stats, but when i got to rank 7 it now has 2/2/4.

Image

edit:

my rank has dropped back to rank 6 now:

Image

but yet it's rank 7 (so glitchy):

im guessing that the people in crytek just wanted to say a big ,"f- you" to the gaming market as it releases its 'final' crysis entry. they got real fans, then they made some game with frickin flash player and charged $60. i would not have bought this if i had heard about how terrible these glitches are. Alas, pre order. ive recently had my weapons and modules set to 0 kills, and i am currently level 25. (guess whos pissed the **** off here.) we'll just have to wait and see if crytek can get their head out of their ass and make a patch, because right now i am a beta tester that payed $60... to BETA TEST.

Ok: To the 40% of you saying "my stuff aint saving bra. fix dis fo me"

This thread is a WORKAROUND. Didn't you read that when you clicked?

This worked great for me. I'm unsure why people complain that they lose things when they disconnect, but come on! Sure you lost 1 skill assessment. It's called log back in and get it again! And the XP loss through disconnection isn't major either! Cry me a river! You lost 200 XP that you gained through your 1/9 score. So what? It isn't that big a loss. I would like a fix for this, but other than that I have no complaints about the game besides these 2:

The Nano Catalyst Bug.
This bug, the unsavable (until now!) unlockables.

Loving the game Crytek, keep them coming ( Debugged please :) ) and hope to get a nice patch for the aforementioned bugs.
