yeah thats was i also thinking, but does it save also my settings like camera and setups from MP lobby?

@IcemanNL55It uploads all your game data so I would assume so.
I assume you could also save any game save data to any compatible external storage device.
The main backup option is PS+, which I deliberately do manually rather than having is set to happen automatically. The risk with automatic is that your main game data could get corrupted but this then syncs to the cloud before you realise there is a problem and then you have not useful backup. Obviously the manual approach only works if you remember to do it periodically.
I just had a quick Google to check anything hadn't changed to give another option, and actually it looks like it has:

Alternatively you can back your game data to an USB stick following a similar procedure as the one mentioned by Ultra.
A workaround that is easily doable on the ps5 would be to either screenshot or record short clips of you going around your settings and then upload them somewhere.
Obviously not very practical as you cannot import it again later, but it is still a log of your settings somehow 🤷♂️
I doubt of the back up of the game or screenshots, because when you update the game, i am affraid the back up the bug with the connection fail? What do you think
Or just delete the game, reinstall and then with screenshots make it personal.
- mariohomoh3 years agoHero (Retired)@IcemanNL55 Sorry, but I'm not sure I got what you mean. Are you asking if there's a risk of a bug breaking your online backup?
If you back it up to a pendrive, a future bug can't reach those files. You know the bug at the moment with the connection to service.. error code playfab etc.
If i make a backup of the game, would that bug come with the back up, or is it better to unstall the game and install it 100% new. I only back it up because of the personal settings and setups, but for that i can make clips
- ScarDuck143 years agoLegend@IcemanNL55 I don’t think it will as it seems to be an issue at EA/Codemasters end
Than i dont have to reinstall it and only back up my game for if something happend
- ScarDuck143 years agoLegend@IcemanNL55 On ps5 your game save data is stored in a different folder. If you deleted the game. And reinstall it. Your save game data will be unaffected. Providing you obviously don’t delete it.
I have reinstalled the game a few times. After big patches and I can continue where I left off no problem Okay thanks and even your car setups for open MP lobbys
- ScarDuck143 years agoLegend@IcemanNL55 I don’t play mp. However I have no issue with my custom setups and I believe they are all saved in same location
