my FM3 game save progress gone, all gone

[y2blade]

I just dropped out of lobby with Mr red barron and a few others and re-booted....it has started me up as if I've never played it before...I've just done the Audi R8 race and chose the Fiesta as my "first" car

gone into my garage and NOTHING.

I am now showing as level 1 ... all the DLC is showing as in the dealers but zero cars in my garage

my saved decals and things are still showing in my paintshop though

from what I can make out it seems to be the game progress missing


my online ranking is still the same Pro 20 but my career level is on 1



WHAT THE F-CK!!!???

either my HD has had a hissy fit or something is not right


anyone else having this nightmare tonight?

seriously guys if anyone wants to gift me a few handy cars I will be very greatfull

I'll gift you some cars to get you going mate, might be tonight, buyt I'm sure we can get you sorted.

[jonesey]

im trying blade but your friend list is full

[y2blade]

Ian thank you

Jonesy I've made a space

thankyou all in advance

I'm pretty miffed by this to say the least as you can imagine, I dread to think how many hours I'd put into my game so far

[jonesey]

i've got a macca f1 with your name on it

[sheps]

I'll get some across. They may not be of use though

[The_Jackal]

email Turn10 they might be able to help. I've heard of people recovering from this.
Its worth a try just incase it works.

seriously ANYTHING will be better than what is in my garage right now....

Ford Fiesta
Fiat 500


that is it!


on reflection this could be a good thing as I had so many cars that I never touched after buying them and many that were rubbish for online play, this time round I'll have a better idea of what is worth buying/building/tuning for each class

still not overly happy about it, but it's not the end of the world


all car gifts greatfully received

thank you VERY much Guys

It is bloody shocking starting from scratch when this time yesterday I had over £2million CR and most of the cars worth having, with the majority of them tuned to the top of different classes and very well set-up






as a side note I have (another) a new headset on the way

[Robatr0n]

That sucks Chris.

If you need any cars, let me know and I'll gift them over to you.

[mrmr96]

Is it not possible to recover your progress from xbox live in some way?

Have you got a list of cars you need in particular or for a specific race? I'll happily send a couple over sometime.

[Polarbert]

You'll probably know this already but when you're not playing the game, jaff on an endurance race with an AI driver and it will earn you some extra credits.

If someone can gift you an FXX you can do the road america endurance which can earn 85,000 credits in just over an hour. Which is fine if you're otherwise engaged. I've been doing it when I go to the gym. Mainly because I can't be arsed coming up with a good enough design to flog in the storehouse.

[y2blade]
