Re: [FIXED] Save Error 22
@PoptartJuniper Thank you for your reply! I did read the post about the error.
When I experienced error code 22 the first time in May, I did try the troubleshooting steps and they did not work. Deleting saves and content from the library did not work either, unfortunately.
When I first got the game and started purchasing packs in February/March, there were hundreds of lots and characters that were added just by the game itself into my library. I scrubbed my library of that content when the error code first popped up. I deleted everything from the library and older saves and the error code still appeared. What was nerve wracking for any player is that when you tried to overwrite a save, the error would delete the save!
I found a workaround that allowed me to keep an autosave, a previous save, and the newest save of a playthrough. I was able to continue playing and save to the library without any error when deleting the previous save before loading the newest one.
Following the newer updates in July and August, the workaround eventually failed me and error code 22 reappeared. Anything involving loading or an autosave: traveling to a lot, entering CAS, even entering build mode from the map, the error would take you out of the game and prompt a restart, and of course manually saving was impossible.
What is troublesome is that I have less saves in my library and less manual saves than before May and when I experienced the error the first time. My Xbox has enough space to save the 267MB file that I have. The library does not even tell you the saving limit so you can determine where you are when it comes to saving (ie 300 KB/ 1 GB or something like that).
It is just weird to have less saves and less content in the library (nothing ever downloaded from the gallery) to still have this error code saying there is no room.
Please forgive my frustration and if I am repeating what you already know. I just want to share my experiences to try to help to fix this issue since EA is aware of it and because it is literally making the game unplayable. It feels terrible to see other bugs get fixes while there are players who can’t even play the game at all. ☹
Thank you for your help!
