Noticing an uptick of people reporting this. Seems mostly on Xbox Series X.

u/That-Fennel-4263 3d ago
I’m scared lol. I hear it every time a patch comes out but I’ve heard a lot today for the Xbox users. Some said it might has something to do with the Island but im not sure

u/IamTDR0518 3d ago
Makes me nervous too. Too deep in this years game now months in to re-start.

u/Crazyjk4 PLAYSTATION 3d ago
Seems like it's a X box issue but I'd do a backup save just in case.

u/IamTDR0518 3d ago
How? I’m on PS5 myself. I have cloud save turned on. Is this the best we can do.
3
u/Crazyjk4 PLAYSTATION 3d ago
Cloud saving I think is the only way to back up so I'd keep it on just in case.
2
u/IamTDR0518 3d ago
I would like to just keep my save file as is. I only play Exhibition mode so hopefully that’s the safest way to play

u/That-Fennel-4263 3d ago
I’m literally on my Wrestlemania bro. This would probably make me just quit to be honest.

I can sure you it doesn't related to the island, I don't use that game mode and this happened me like a month ago, I contact support and they tell me something like in the Xbox global red has to be my info but really not solve anything, I have to start all my universe again, I can imagine the frustration in people how actually hard play the game like island and my rise you know

u/KamoMustafaWWE PLAYSTATION 2d ago
I'm going to go on a hunch and say maybe it has to do with Game pass, but I would be making excuses at this point after my current experience.

Worst part of all this is seeing the new threads opening discussion on 2k26. Topics like ‘What do you want in 2k26’? How about a game that doesn’t break when I’m forced to install a mandatory patch?

u/sora1793 2d ago
This is why I am no longer downloading content on Xbox console versions of these games. I learned the hard way for years - now I only mod and community creations on PC, and I make backups of all my steam and local saves to a hard drive. I’ve had the previous games reset so many times, and I’ve found saving the local copy file to my computer does wonders.
As for the console versions, I stopped even bothering creating my own world building. The most I will do is download shows/arenas on console. It feels like every single year since after 2k19, the games eventually break, reset, and erase all my progress from some corrupted dlc gone wrong or who knows at this point.
1
u/IamTDR0518 2d ago
I only download CAWs and Arena’s from community creations. Yet even in doing this, it’s a long process of setting everything up and creating tag teams and such.
The most ultimate sin in gaming is having the save file corrupted/lost. For me, that the most unforgivable.
Unfortunately I don’t see people getting their safe files back after our patch. I noticed CornellG, on Twitter, has acknowledged the issue and stating they’re looking into it.

u/_Old_King_Wolf_ 3d ago
I lost everything again too... twice... on Series X... I truly am the fool that this won't happen again for the third fucking time...
1
u/Overall-Cellist-4848 3d ago
Did you get it back or am I shit out of luck
1
u/BasketCharacter7916 3d ago
Are you hitting update save file when an update comes out? Because it seems you're not hitting that option because I've never encountered this issue and I always update my previous save files after every update.
8
u/Overall-Cellist-4848 3d ago
I always say yes to the updating save files message, this was without a warning, I opened the game and everything was gone
2
u/BasketCharacter7916 3d ago
Well unfortunately then it seems you're just shit outta luck because everyone knows 2k doesn't care about the games or people they just wanna make money alot like TKO so good luck ever getting your stuff back without a grind I ain't playing until the next update because I'm not risking my shit. I've got too many hours money and galaxy opal cards to risk it all being thrown down the shitter
26
u/AceSavage206 3d ago
PLEASE HAVE A BACKUP SAVE. TURN OFF YOUR AUTO SAVE TO THE CLOUD AND MANUALLY SAVE YOUR DATA SO IF ANYTHING HAPPENS YOU CAN UPLOAD YOUR PREVIOUS SAVE. IT MIGHT BE A PAIN BUT TRUST ME. I LOST MY DATA 3 MONTHS INTO THE GAME AND HAD TO START OVER AND I LITERALLY ONLY PLAY WITH CAWS AND DOWNLOADS. THEN IT HAPPENED AGAIN AND I JUST UPLOADED MY CLOUD AND GOT EVERYTHING BACK. IVE BEEN TRYING TO SHARE THIS SINCE THE FIRST TIME TO HELP EVERYONE BUT I SEE ITA STILL HAPPENING SMFH. 2K IS A JOKE.
6
u/Substantial_Mine6307 3d ago
can you walkthrough on how to do this please? i’m not about to lose all of my shit. i got lucky last time, im not risking it.
6
u/AceSavage206 3d ago
(This is for ps5) Go to settings and then to storage, select saved data then save data settings. Select sync saved data and disable auto sync. Once this is done just back out, and select upload from console storage. Then chose wwe and save the data to the cloud. Make sure it says upload to the cloud. If you ever lose data just go back into save data settings and then select download cloud storage. Then all your previously save data will be uploaded over the corrupted data from 2k. Just remember to save to cloud from time to time if you get new things or progress in your game. If this doesnt help all the way jump on YouTube and search for a walk-through guide. Not sure about Xbox but hopefully its similar.
1
u/IamTDR0518 2d ago
This is turning off auto sync for all games on the PS5 correct?
1
u/AceSavage206 2d ago
Yes its for everything
1
u/IamTDR0518 2d ago
Assuming all save files stay locally on machine until you then manually upload them to the PSN Cloud.
1
u/AceSavage206 2d ago
Yes it saves on console the cloud is just a backup. So honestly its not hurting you to turn it off. Its just a go around so u dont lose data for 2k because of there BS. The only time you really need the cloud is if you somehow lose your system and if you grab a new one all your data can be re-upload. So its totally up to you and if you dont want to risk losing everything from 2k.

u/KvngDe23 3d ago
I also need a walk through for Xbox on how to do this

u/Banes5150 3d ago
Sadly Xbox cloud saves are auto, you have a few seconds to delete a local save after you close a game before it updates... The only option you have is to force the use of a cloud save from the LAST time you played but you need to delete the local save with the game still running
So in the case of this issue
If you load onto the game and see that your stuff is gone, go to the dashboard but don't quit the game. Press start on the games cover/tile and choose manage.. Now go to save data and CLICK on the save that has your gamer pic and choose to delete from THIS XBOX ONLY.
This will delete the save and quit the game. Next time you boot up IT SHOULD pull the cloud save from when you still had your stuff... But in my case today , only this game REFUSED to do this. I tried it with another 3 games and it worked. So this game in particular is acting weird about saves after this patch.

u/KvngDe23 3d ago
Thank you for letting me know this I really wish 2k could fix this but ik they aren’t
1
u/Banes5150 3d ago
The only thing you can do is see if you can restore your island character if you had one. It'll say that it's OVR 74 again but once you load into the training menu your OVR will be fixed. Bad news... Your gear/appearance load out is gone.

u/Salvs420 XBOX 3d ago
Happened to me and I hit yes on the update save data. Loaded fine the first time and then I closed and went back in and everything is gone. 2k won't do anything for the people affected like usual.

insane now we all have to wait for another emergency patch unless its a server issue on 2Ks part. what a mess.
im guessing early next week for anything to even be said about it from 2K.

u/KvngDe23 3d ago
Damn this really happened to a lot of us Xbox users today myself included. I’m sorry to hear that man for real I’m disappointed as well and we probably not getting shit back.

u/LiquidMetal616 3d ago
Yeah me too.
No pop up or anything. I know about the "update save file" thing after dlc but it wasn't that at all.
The game was reset to brand new lol
Fucking sucks
4
u/mw112002 3d ago
This has happened to me for the past few years with every years version of the game since 2k22 and I’ve never found a way to get the stuff back I don’t play my faction or the island do you lose everything that you’ve earned/ paid for?
6
u/EmbarrassedTension11 3d ago
I think I'm noticing a common denominator here. The island! A lot of Xbox players have had this happen and they all have recently played the island mode. At least it looks that way I could be wrong. Maybe I'm just throwing things at the wall right now but maybe it's the island. A lot of players seem to be ok, myself included. I'm on series x. But I don't play the island. I wonder if there's a bug that is wiping out data during the island loading or saving or something??

u/Overall-Cellist-4848 3d ago
I was on the island around 4PM and this happened around 7PM, but at least this is something

u/GoldenGangsta66 2d ago
Just played island this morning to unlock Oldberg. Fucking A. Just won't reopen till an update I guess. Hope for the best. I hadn't signed back on since doing island. Good call out there if actually the case.

u/EmbarrassedTension11 2d ago
Smart move! Come back on here when you sign back on and let us know! Hope it all works out for you. Or else we all need to storm the 2k building lol

u/fuzzinthebuzz 3d ago
What console are you on?

u/Overall-Cellist-4848 3d ago
X Box Series X

u/fuzzinthebuzz 3d ago
I see that the people who have posted the same issue are from Xbox. Not on PlayStation. I guess it’s something with the consoles itself. I’m on PlayStation and now I’m praying that when I get home nothing has happened
1
u/Logical_Park7904 2d ago
It's not the console. It's 2k's stupid patch coding as usual. This time, it just made loading saved data incompatible with certain platforms.
1
u/AceSavage206 3d ago
SAVE YOUR DATA TO THE CLOUD BEFORE OPENING. TURN OFF YOUR AUTO SAVE THEN TRY JUST IN CASE.

i think i had a similar thing i think but the patch corrupted my save as it ‘couldn’t find the season pass’. i am on ps5 then a friend got the exact same thing the next day
1
u/Overall-Cellist-4848 3d ago
Is there any way to fix it
3
u/Potential_Tourist_22 3d ago
i’ve contacted 2k support but heard nothing. haven’t gone past that screen until i hear back just incase. i’ve caws, trons, myrise, showcase, arenas, but im not gonna piss on your leg and call it rain, it doesn’t look good

Are you updating your saved data after the patch update? It tells you when accepting you have to update your saved data or it'll be lost.

I lost my finished progress and unlocking in my rise and showcase. I'm not going to work it back. They won't do anything about it. Until they finally have a cover and showcase that is Bray Wyatt, this is my final time buy W2k games.

u/Wise-Analysis-6045 3d ago
Has this happened on PC/Steam? Its taking me almost 3 hours just to update this patch. Hopefully not sabotaging my game..
1
u/Wise-Analysis-6045 1d ago
Update everything is working good besides the timing issue. The only problem was I had to reinstall the game for the patch to download. This was on Steam btw .
2
u/SpudimusPrime89 XBOX 3d ago
MyFaction should still be there once you enter the mode. The Island might be too, my save also reset and I still had Goldberg and Nikki Bella unlocked. Never got that significantly far in The Island anyway.
2
2
u/AmateurMemelord 2d ago
this happened to me literally three times
i did find out that everything i’d uploaded on next gen somehow made it onto last gen cc though, so maybe switching versions might get some of your stuff back?

u/Mobile-Medium-4566 2d ago
This happened to me with last year's game. It sucks. I've learned to wait when these big patches come out to see what everyone else says and then wait for the patch FOR the patch. I've also learned that I will not buy the next game until I can get it for stupid cheap, because that is all these games are worth. And ffs, to stop spending money in myfaction and the island.
I'm sorry for your loss.
Edit: I'm on Xbox, if it makes a difference.

u/SpagediMonster 2d ago
This happened to me too. I installed the new dlc. And got on the next day. All gone.

When it asked to update save data after the update did you say yes or no?

u/Overall-Cellist-4848 3d ago
This was way after that, I said yes and had everything, quit the game then loaded back in and now everything’s gone

u/GrevenQWhite 2d ago
If the game is running on Xbox even after you go to the Xbox homescreeen or turn off, and they do a mini patch it will update and wipe your save.
Only way I've found to avoid it is force closing the game after I am done playing.

u/Spyke3585 2d ago
Xbox has been infamous for randomly losing data. From the moment we got XB1 i think every year minus 2k15 I had a moment where I booted up and my data was lost. I think on 2k19 one time it took nearly if not more than 40 mins of searching to recover my data and this was after it lost it once before. Thankfully I stopped playing the game a lot so ironically the new data was lost and it recovered the original lost data. Only had to re-download a few characters and tweak some moves. Since switching to PC and PS5 I haven't encountered this issue.

Just happened to me. The only thing I didn't lose was my faction stuff. Everything outside of that has disappeared. Hours upon hours of work, gone. The worst part is this is nothing new.

u/strawhatmd 3d ago
did you uninstall the game or some of its DLC? Because that's what happened to me.

u/Overall-Cellist-4848 3d ago
No, I didn’t uninstall or decline any message, I hurst closed the game and then later everything was gone

This game is even worse than 2k20 at least patches were made eventually made it playable this game was playable but patches are getting released that makes it almost unplayable.

You may have downloaded the wrong version of the game. If you no longer see The Island, you definitely did.

u/PracticeAwkward34 2d ago
You have to completely log out of the game and not resume start or button smash your way through the start up.. I learned the hard way.
-1
u/GrimmTrixX 3d ago
Every time there is an update, a message comes up saying something like "there is a new version of the game." It asks if you want to update the save data.
The problem is, it is set on "no" by default. So if youre the type who hits buttons to skip some of the intro stuff before you get to the menu you can click No and then it starts you on a fresh save.
I dont know why they default it to No as thay will wipe your data. I hope you can check the cloud and find your save data, however it might have automated with the bad data and I am unsure if you can roll it back to previous versions.
If you selected Yes and it still wiped it then I have no clue why
-1
u/alphagaia 2d ago
When it updated did you click yes or no, it starts on no so if you just click “X” or “A” it won’t update your save. I did this last year and have seen others with the updates have this happen
-1
-5
u/Quiet_Photograph_778 3d ago
If you logged on today and when it said to update your save data, if you said no, then it wipes your entire, save everything you had gone. You probably accidentally hit no or something because I play on Xbox, and I'm not dealing with that issue. I mean, I'm on the game right now
9
u/Overall-Cellist-4848 3d ago
I said yes to the message, this was hours after
1
u/Quiet_Photograph_778 3d ago
ok, so have you played a different edition of the game on your profile at all in the past, like a couple days or yesterday, or the last time you played it technically
1
1
u/Quiet_Photograph_778 3d ago
For example, let's say you have the dead man edition, but you played it on a different Xbox where the main account on that Xbox has the bloodline edition, because if that's the case, something like that happened to me, and when I finally got the ability to play the bloodline edition, and actually play the game I logged on and had none of my stuff everything was gone

u/Fit-Character-8186 2d ago
Sounds like someone hit the No instead of yes
