Update ate my saved games.

I am really lucky I posted my lvl 112 saved game to nexus mods. Seriously, I would of liked to have had each one of my play throughs for using in dlc. Ugh, the ancient AI is still missing from SAM node on Meridian.

    @VladVonCastein Hey, your saves are at My Documents\Bioware\Mass Effect Andromeda\Save on the C drive, regardless of your game install, so you can check there and make some backups for peace of mind. 

    Thanks David, will check this out later 😃

    I am currently holding my breath...  Recently ran out of space on my c drive and with the advice of the community here, I uninstalled and reinstalled MEA onto my D drive.  That was also during the time the patch was introduced.  Havent played the game since then, so no idea if my 600 hrs worth of saves would be there...

    I create a saves backup folder and copied all saves to it, then deleted most saves in main folder to make room, as pc has a 500 save limit and I had over 300 saves between my 3 complete plays. This way if something happens I have backups of most of my characters.

    Yep, For any long game that stores saves locally I'll always be sure to keep extensive backups. 


    Thanks for the posts.
