10 hours wasted because you can't have more than 1 save....
Fix your broken game.... Started a new game and lost all my progress when the game auto saved over my exsisting game... Negative review posted!

Why you didn't save the game manually

So let me get this right, you give the game a negative review because you yourself did not save your game?

And yes, you can have any number of save files.

This is from your review: "When the game auto saves it auto saves over ALL your exsisting saves.... SO DISGUSTED"

I'd like to point out that it's completely false. If you are using the autosave (which is a safety/backup system) as your main save then it is you who is completely at fault.

Nope, I clearly saved another file labeled "USA", yet somehow it is now gone... I got ♥♥♥♥♥♥ out of 10 hours because of their ♥♥♥♥♥♥ save system. I am unsubscribing from this discussion. Just want the devs to know that their game is broken and wastes peoples time.

If you made a save, then you either have a local save or a cloud save (depending on your configuration).

It autosaves 3 times before it overwrites anything
autosave.hoi4
old_autosave.hoi4
older_autosave.hoi4

every time it saves it renames the old saves down the line first

As was pointed out previously in the thread though it is a backup system. If you don't save your games manually they will be lost which frankly shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone

When loading save files you can either load them from your local drive or from the cloud. By default any game you manually save will be saved to the cloud as I recall.

should we tell him how ironman works?

He he he, then he / she is playing on Ironman. There you got only one save and the rewards on Steam.

If you cancel the hook on Ironman he / she can save up to max. of the hard disk. But there are then no rewards on steam.

If the young guys would watch and read correctly they won´t to drop a brick every time. I personaly :steamhappy: that the young guys today are so stupid. Learn reading and checking first, in order to avoid that.

We older guys haven´t had so much electronics like today and readed the instruction manuals etc. first. And if there isn´t a instruction manual anyone (electronics / printed) we check the Menus of the Games / Programms longer to see what the rules are in the Game / Programm. So we are in order to avoid to drop a brick. :steamhappy:

I think I have done this so far. :steamhappy: But I think it will make him / her the life easyer, if you would do it. I can´t this, because I laugh so heavy about the Main Post and the stupid young people from today.
