Yeah we get how frustrating this must have been. With the upcoming data decentralization changes we talk about in this week's news post there should be fewer issues like this in future, or it will be easier to recover as the key player and load out data will be stored on your PC.

Post this over on https://icarus.featureupvote.com/

It's extremely frustrating for us, and I have personally reached out to both Valve and Epic about the issue. Unfortunately, we are the ones who get blamed. I will keep putting pressure on.

In the meantime, I suggest that any game you have this issue with, raise a steam support ticket. They might close it, but perhaps the quantity might make them look at it.

The only option we really have is to abandon the use of the content packing system Epic provide as part of unreal. But this would mean the data is entirely unpacked, taking up enormous disk space and increasing load times by an incredible amount.

This situation represents a concern I have, that engine manufacturers and digital stores aren't blamed for issues with their part in providing products - and therefore, they aren't incentivized to solve the issues.

Welcome to Icarus.

Also - this will change soon. In the week 49 update we mention that with the upcoming 'data decentralization' change mission rewards will be granted upon the completion of objectives, rather than the completion of the prospect. So no more waiting for all players to leave the mission before you get the reward, or losing it all to a bear on the final stretch.

Thank you for identifying this hiccup! Team is on it, and you get a gold star (in theory, I am all out of actual gold stars but it's the thought that counts)

You activate the "most requested change" in the game since its release and you make it a local save so the ONLY way you can play with another person is if the ORIGINAL CREATOR OF THE WORLD is online. It's bad enough that this STILL does not have dedicated servers (*ya, ya I know you're working on it) that we can host and/or play on BUT you make open world survival mode A LOCAL SAVE to the original world creator's PC. So when PLAYER 1 has to get off to eat his din-din, player 2 has to get off as well and can NOT go back into the world because it's on PLAYER 1's DAMN COMPUTER! And when Player 1 is at work, player 2, 3, 4 can't play the stupid game, why - - BECAUSE IT'S ON PLAYER ONE'S HARD DRIVE. Who in your planning department came up with this little ditty - FIRE THEM. We re-installed this game based on the new mode and th...
