I've had both these things happen to me. The first was deleting an old save and losing the lot - how cr*p is that? Why didn't they warn us? Why offer the option if it's going to screw up all the saved games?

I've also had the "dropping like a stone until you're all killed" effect as well, and I wasn't submerged when I saved either.

I'm carrying on with the game, but honestly these bugs suck!!

True they suck but, once you get into a game and understand the stupid little bugs....you will not care because this game become a drug and you will do anything to keep it going

You are so very right I'm totaly hooked already. I just think it's shamefull that these companies charge money (and quite a bit sometimes) for a half finished product. If I was to behave like that at work .... well we know the rest don't we?

Anyway as I said I love the game and can't wait to get back to it

True, I got this game about two years ago. Played for a while and went on to IL2. I just happend upon the GW super mod and have not stopped playing since I loaded it on to the hard drive. Thankfully we have some talented individuals that create these mods for free and make the game what it should have been. So no complaints here mate More mods to come plus SH4 that I hope the developers put in what they have learned the hard way with SH3. I can't wait to see what the modders do with SH4

GW is a brilliant mod and creates a totally new experience to the game. It is true that there are a few 'issues' with savegames etc but it's not the end of the world. The game is stable and very addictive. After I've installed GW I never looked back. I cannot even remember how the stock game look like
