Please use this thread going forward: Save Game Corruption (Disappearing Lots/Error 800 or 801) | EA Forums - 5037272
I'm sorry to hear that. It's a great game. I hope you'll reconsider and play again at some point. I was pretty much devastated when my game corrupted last year. Losing a save that I had played nearly every day since early 2017 really hurt. But I love the game, so I salvaged what I could and started a new save. After 10 months, I haven't seen any indications that the corruption issue is going to show up again. I've been watching for it but other than the known bugs, most of which have reported here, there's been no sign of it and my save is fine. So, don't let something like that cause you to abandon the game.
Hope this helps.
No, it’s not a great game; it’s buggy beyond comprehension. Many of us in this thread stopped playing since for rent, because the constantly coming back corruption destroys the enjoyment.
CGrant56, Honestly, i am really happy for you, that the bug did not came back in your save and i hope it stays this way. But that does not mean this is given for everyone.
I also had the bug, started a new save and it corrupted the new save again.
and I know more people where it came back instead of staying away. That's just sad.
Some others feel the same way, which is why we are looking for a solution and don't want to accept the situation.
This is simply not what i would call a great game if i always have to worry that my time, effort and love i put into my save could be destroid at any time.
So good for you that you have stilll fun with the game and are happy with the state its in but please dont expect this from everone here.
I also would love to come back to play the game and put as much love and effort in it like i did until last year, but its simply not possible in this state.
