This game is totally dependent on navigating a net of campaigns (excellent concept) but is consequently totally reliant on dependable and retrievable saving. Otherwise consistent progress is problematic and requires repeating a series of activities already accomplished. And of course such a loss could always happen again.
The success of this game and its enjoyment is really jeapardised if game saves cannot be fully guaranteed for all players.

I've disabled online saves - you do that by clicking on the little cog icon which is on the top right of the game launcher. Never had a problem with any of my save games since doing that.
