Since the release of Far Cry 2, many have been plagued by the save game bug. Our own MajorGamer aka XxWhoDeyxX85 ran into this bug about a month after the release. it Imagine spending 20+ hours playing Far Cry 2, tearing your way through the story mode leaving a sea of bodies in your path only to find that your save game is corrupted! Luckily, for those who haven’t already encountered the bug, we won’t have to worry anymore. The creators of Far Cry 2, Ubisoft has released a patch fixing this bug. Unfortunately, this patch won’t help anyone out who has already suffered the bug. What does this mean? Basically, if your save game is corrupted, you’re out of luck but if you start a new one you don’t have to worry about your save game getting corrupted a second time.
