NFS Payback, Can I recover my save from cloud?

Hello

I was playing Payback today and had a power outage that shut down my PC. After I launched the game again it said my savefile is corrupted.

I deleted the files from Documents and launched it again and it still says file could not be read.

Is there a way to manually get and replace the files with the latest cloud save? I know you could manage could saves back in Origin, but EA App doesn't have anything like that.

  • Hello @Colt_Dracula,

    Unfortunately, there is no way of getting back progress since it locally saved. If the saves were cloud saved, then you should have gotten back your saves automatically.

    Best regards,

  • Huh...

    I re-downloaded the game to my pc after doing a clean install once and had my save back.

    When I launch the game, a save folder keeps appearing in my documents again and again even if I delete it. Maybe it is corrupted in the cloud. 

    The one at "username/Documents/Need for Speed(TM) Payback" is the only place saves are located locally right? If so it is bringing the corrupted one from the cloud.
