Game Saves

[Painless]

What is the point of having a save game feature if you can't load a game?

I have saved several times during a mission, quit the game and when re-starting the game I am not offered to load a game, nor can I load a game (the button is greyed out) and the continue button does absolutely nothing in the globe menu.

Does this game have a save game feature? Or do I have to complete a mission in a single sitting?

Good evening.
This is not how the saves should work.
If you close the game after a save, when you load it back, it should offer you to load it.
Here is the full description of the save feature:

If it does not work this way, please provide us more info about it. Like - which mission was that, what did you do, your log-files (you can see where to get them in tech support thread).

It does not work that way. Like Larry, I got lucky once, but since then, every save was met with having to restart the mission.

I guess the thing is with the bug we are fixing with tomorrow's update.
It works like so for now - you load a mission and receive a black screen. What you need to do is press Spacebar to start playing the saved game, otherwise nothing will happen.

I had to just unistall the game. I would have like the option of picking saved games from a list... With this it's too buggy. My saved game became corrupt on battle of the bulge and kept going to black screen. That mission its self was so laggy and kept degrading the longer I played it.

I can certainly understand that. I cannot stand checkpoint saves.

I find that in time I will purposefully not play and or start checkpoint saved games.

Our saves are not checkpoint ones, the thing is you can only have one at a time, it is a quick save mechanic, not a checkpoint one.
With checkpoints you are not able to choose the time when the save is done, with Quick saves - you are.
