    Wrong. There is a way. And suffice it to say, I reckon it's pretty disturbing that the players figured it out while the trusted EA experts declared there's no way out of it, most likely forcing a lot players to ruin their files. Now, this works if you've set your system to upload backup data to the online cloud. And you might've already overwritten your files @whoishenryruff, but just in case, check this post out from some cool dude on Reddit:

    Worked for me! The backup might be a day old, but that's better than nothing, right? Good luck man! Hope it can work. 🙂

Had the same issue, but did not have auto-upload enabled. Fortunately, the PS4 made a local backup when I ran the update yesterday (the update appears to corrupt the save file). Now I have two data files, the backup and the corrupted. I was able to delete the corrupted save file and then relaunched Battlefront II, which loaded the backup save file. All is good now - and I uploaded the save file to online storage.

You can delete the corrupt local save file by going to Settings > Application Saved Data Management > Saved Data in System Storage. Select delete, then select the corrupt save file to delete - it will clearly say Corrupted.

Hope that helps someone else.
