I've Found A Workaround For the Saving Glitch (Xbox360)
Hello,
I've recently had my savegames acting strangely after downloading the last two episodes on my console.
I had 2 save files. One (SLOT 1) was for making decisions as I would if I were personally in the situation and the other (SLOT 2) was to do the opposite to see how the game plays out and what things I could have missed if only playing in one style.
I was able to continue my first save (SLOT 1) as if nothing changed, no problem. After completing the game, I went to my alternative save (SLOT 2)-(which was up to the end of Chapter 3) and tried to start Chapter 4. The save I chose read 'Chapter 3.'
When I loaded the game, it took me all the way back to Chapter 1. I mini-panicked and quit back to the main menu to see what was up. When I checked my save file again, it read 'Chapter 1.' (SLOT 2) When I loaded that save, it loaded the Chapter select menu and pushed the selection up to Chapter 2.
From there it gave me the rewind option on the rest of the Chapters and I chose Chapter 4 and it worked with all my previous decisions intact (Including Chapter 3). Unfortunately, it was late at night and I passed out mid-decision on a question and woke up to an automatically shut-off Xbox.
I booted up today to try to continue and it loaded me at Chapter 1 again, so I gave something a try...
---The Final Method---
I loaded Chapter 1 (SLOT 2), then once the cutscene started (before answering any questions) I pressed START and quit back to the Main Menu.
After that I loaded my save again which now read 'Chapter 1' and it pushed the Chapter selection to Chapter 2.
I loaded Chapter 2, then once the cutscene finished showing my previous decisions and started the gameplay, I pressed START and quit back to the Main Menu.
After that I loaded my save again which now read Chapter 2 and it pushed the Chapter selection to Chapter 3.
I repeated this one more time to get my game to Chapter 4 and I was able to pick it back up from the beginning of the Chapter with all my decisions intact.
---End Method---
I hope this works for some of you having troubles out there. It's worked out for me, so far. I haven't quit the game, yet, so I'm not sure what's going to happen when I power down, but I'm going to at least finish out the Chapter in hopes that my decisions shall carry on to Chapter 5.
Good luck!
