Save Game is disappeared

[SchnaseL]

Hallo, i start my Game and i dont can load My Save Game or resume... it’s disappeared...

I am not sure what you mean sometimes you have to do a little more in the level to quick save.

You probably bought the game on epic so you may have a similar case to mine.

When playing this game you have 2 options: Open the launcher and run it from there or launch the game directly from the .exe file (launcher not running). If you play one way you must continue using it or the save isn’t available.

I use the directly .exe, I'm playing for 3 days and it always worked. Today I start the game and the savegame is gone

[Götterdämmerung69]

lol. No epic forums?)))

[SchnaseL]

Dann würde ich nicht hier fragen oder...

RIP then. If Epic had cloud saves it wouldn’t have happened.

[SchnaseL]

yes, I see that too. epic is ♥♥♥♥

Hey so I just ran into this issue, If you launch from the executable it saves the games not to the Saved Games/Metro Exodus/Random Numbers/ but just to Saved Games if you copy the saves from the other location to the root of the Saved Games folder you get your saves back

Still no cloud save in 2019? thats a bummer

Same happend to me too andI use EGLauncher aswell. This is the solution, check both run form .exe and run from launcher.

I ran the .exe and there was my save game! Anyone from Steam experienced this too or only EGLauncher?

Lots of people have lost their save files, completely corrupted.

So for me I had to do the reverse of what was described above: in my c:\user\****\Saved Games, I copied all m3_* files and user.cfg into the
c:\user\****\Saved Games\Metro Exodus\2acdd442ac444f3bb23098e221395d31\
folder and the game finally recognized my save. For me this might be a consequence of previously launching the game from steam via "Add non-steam game" --it now tells me to launch the game from the epic launcher :-(
...But at least I got my save back...

i have the same problem on steam. The game doesn't show any saves ((

Faced with that issue and thought that everything is gone. In the main menu I pushed the button not to "proceed the game" as usual but to "load the game" and it suddenly starts from the beginning of the first chapter. I was on the last chapter. Thanks to gaming gods I snooped around the main game folder and found some saves here "\Metro Exodus Enhanced Edition\shared_saves". So if you are in trouble just copy them to the folder with saves from the game.

Disable steam cloud saves fixed it for me. All of a sudden one of my old saves (the most imporant one with the most progress) popped up again.
