More than one save?
There can only be one game played at a time? My girlfriend enjoys playing games as well and she wants to create her own character and play her own game very disappointing if there is not any way to have multiple games going.

if she enjoys it that much then she has to buy her own copy simple as that

Well that's too bad Assassin's Creed Origins offered 3 saves so you could have three different characters at once. Considering that we live together and we share the same gaming PC it would just seem easier and honestly cheaper to just own one copy with multiple save slots. I guess she will just have to wait until I finish the game and then she can start her own.

Maybe they went in half on the game? Why shouldn't they both be able to enjoy the game? Ubisoft completely mental for not additional save files in this game. Especially when console gamers can get as many as they want by signing into different profiles. It leads me to believe having additional save lines added wouldn't be a very hard thing to accomplish.

Does anyone know where the saves are stored so we can swap them manually? I can't find them.

copy paste your safefile to somewhere safe, make new character?

Check in here - C:\Program Files (x86)\Ubisoft\Ubisoft Game Launcher\savegames. I have some saves in there, some are from Far Cry 4 also though so you'll have to look at dates of files and maybe experiment with backing up somewhere else and deleting to see if a new game starts, then you can try copying back, etc..

Do you realize how ridiculous that even sounds? If you're going to join a discussion, offer up some solutions, not smartass comments that do not contribute. I'd like to be able to have multiple game saves myself so should I buy a copy for each one??? sigh...

I agree I dont like the idea of only one save, I do not wish my Son or my brother to play on my character as we all use the same PC for the same thing, Other games allow more then 1 save this should not be any different. So yes I say they need to put in a resident Game save feature that allows for more then 1 save file. Right now I think that all saved files are remote and not local to the computer as I have read about someone already being banned for some stupid thing and he got his account unbanned but he lost all his progression as the ban also deleted his account saves on the remote servers although I do not know if this is true or not cause as I said I read it online and not everything is true that you read online. lol

\in the uplay only version they get stored to the drive you installed uplay to

Program files X86 \ Ubisoft \ Ubisoft game launcher \savegames \ *a folder with a long series
of letters and numbers Varies from system to system as thats your Uplay ID * \ 1803

for the Uplay only version

the folder for FC 5 is different for steam users and no one will tell me what it is so far .. i have a uplay only copy so yea the steam version ALWAYS uses a differnt file folder

but yes you can always back up your SAVES .. make sure you shut off the uplay cloud save sync settin in Uplay setttings .( it causes more problems then what its worth )

and see this page

in case you need to move to a new PC

https://support.ubi.com/en-US/Faqs/Details/kA030000000enCFCAY?name=how-can-i-manually-back-up-my-save-game

but i do know steam versions always change folder num,vber so they can lock you into only buying DLC on Steam

so if ya got the game on steam post what folder number your saves go to in that ubisoft game launcher folder

again here its 1803 - Uplay only copy , i'm sure steam changed it for stem buyers like they did with FC 4 and primal

with Far Cry 4 it was

with the steam version of the game, saves your game to

C:\ Program files X86 \ Ubisoft \ Ubisoft game launcher \savegames \ *a folder with a long series
of letters and numbers Varies from system to system* \ 856


the Uplay only version they go in
C:\ Program files X86 \ Ubisoft \ Ubisoft game launcher \savegames \ *a folder with a long series
of letters and numbers Varies from system to system* \ 420

i forget the folder number for Primal .. i have it saved some where ..just too lazy to look now
+ i wanna go play some FC5

good luck man
