Just got this email from Ubisoft. Everyone who got Star Wars Outlaws at launch are forced to delete their save game

Is this an issue everyone has who played ? Or is this something related to playing earlier then intended by changing the time zone? Like maybe at the proper launch time had the proper build/patch? But I wouldn’t hold it past Ubisoft if they are making everyone make a new save. Now I get the saying “wait awhile before buying”
Your own fault for playing a game so early. Especially when with Ubisoft.
Everyone on PS5. From what I’ve been able to tell, it’s platform specific.
Dont be surprised to receive trash when you buy something that came from a garbage dump. Yes maybe every once in a while there is a diamond in the rough but typically you will indeed receive trash.
What did you expect paying extra to play an unfinished game? 🤡
One more example of why you SHOULD NEVER. PREORDER. GAMES.
Stop incentivizing “early access” price hikes? They should be paying you to beta test their game not the opposite.
Calling EARLY access a “launch” is deceptive. I hated how long AC Valhalla was too but can we please keep hate mobs strictly a response to things that matter in this world at least?
Like you LITERALLY got what you PAID FOR homie. Enjoy your second playthrough
This new “Pay money to play the game early, except it doesn’t actually work properly” business model seems suboptimal for the customer. It’s not just Ubisoft. If I recall the Suicide Squad early access period had server bugs that rendered the game unplayable.
Charging money for something and not delivering it seems to be the newest “improved” business model for the gaming industry. Not a fan.
It’s hard to feel bad when people keep falling for the same clown traps.
Are you surprised?
“We rolled out a maintenance”, who says it like that?
😂
Patient gamers stay winning. I’ll wait until Black Friday when this inevitably drops to $30 and the more egregious bugs have been patched.
This is pretty common for betas/early build games for updates to break saves, at least they tell you exactly how to revert to an older version so you could still play yours it seems
This is why I don’t play games at launch anymore from any dev, regardless of reputation. Give them a month or two to work out the inevitable issues.
I am going to really love this game sometime in 2026.
Paid beta 😂
Everyone gets what they deserve.
If only it was a AAAA title, this would never have happened
You played an early access game, surely this wasn’t unexpected.
No sympathy. People never learn
Yeah I’ll buy this when it’s 10 euro.
Gotta love that 3 day headstart!
Yet another reason why always-online DRM is evil and anti-consumer.
They do say “*if* you continue on a prior save, you will face progression blockers.” Implies they aren’t forcing you to the latest patch but you will have a bad time if you don’t.
Super annoying. But the game is a fun time so not a big deal.
Why are you guys buying games on release?
I remember the save bug with watch dogs legion when it came our. That was the last ubisoft game i paid money for
I look forward to playing this game when it’s finished
Yah it’s pretty common lol nothing new
TLDR
Don’t
Preorder
Games
Honestly, if you bought a Ubisoft game it’s on you
This is what y’all get for being unpaid bug testers.
Surprised anyone bought that game at launch tbh
Who the fuck bought this game anyway
It’s starting to get to the point where I don’t feel sorry for anyone who buys an Ubisoft game anymore.
We all need to really come together and boycott this company.
