Yeah just came back to say the same. Unless the game requires an online connection, it doesn't appear to save. It supposedly saves every 10 seconds, and before closing the game I hit the save button, but upon restart it starts as if there is no save data at all.
While it does save online, after this update, if the pc doesn't have connection, it should have a backup, and with backup, if the user blocks the internet connection from the app using the firewall, shouldn't it be possible to play and have a save after quitting? It would only bring a little bit more work to the user, to block the connection to the app, but it shouldn't be hard to do, that is, unless you need to have first saved online before, which i'm not really sure...
Edit: Too bad this version doesn't have the changes of that specific patch, as it doesn't have the options that should have on the options menu
They can't do this sadly , bcs it's cost money,resources and etc. No one do this. It's better to wait this game with discount and play it or just avoid it.
