patterabbit Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 Since I almost threw out my 1500€ computer in desperation in trying to desperately getting a game I have basically waited 18 years for to play, I thought I would enlighten people who run into similar problem like I have had. If you can't save the game and always get "failed to save" and options wont save either, it's most probably because your 'documents' folder is not in it's default location C:\whatever. I had myself moved all documents and such to another drive, which I later also had removed but still included as a default save location for documents. There are a fast and a longer solution for this included in this link to the official forums: http://forums.2kgames.com/showthread.php?149216-Can-t-change-options-or-save-load-games&p=2119646#post2119646 Anyway if you are in a panic to play, just create a new user on the computer and log in as the new user and start up steam and run XCOM - and now you can save!
