    What happend??

    Enable cloud save( go to settings - system - storage - cloud save - enable)

    When you start gow 3, select cloud save instead of your HD storage, play a quick match and it'll automatically save to your cloud storage.

    Now switch back to your HD storage by simply changing the storage on the options.

    Repeat anytime you want to backup your data.

    How much time did you waste on your online character?

    I have to wonder why they felt the need to use this cloud crap instead of just keeping our saves on our HDDs.

    How to use cloud saves instead of system saves?

    Hi Jinx Illusion,

    Unfortunately if you picked the wrong one, and a new save went to the cloud there is no way to go back to the previous one. If you haven't saved, you can try resetting to factory, to use the latest cloud save.

    So if you haven't re-saved on top of the previous cloud save, then there is a chance you'll download just the cloud saved data. Keep in mind too, you'll need to reinstall all your apps and games. If you don't play online, any game saves you had offline may
    be erased.

    My cloud saved game app. IS UNFORMATTED!?!!?!

    Hey there Ramos,

    Sorry to hear you're having issues with your Cloud Saving.

    There is a game save stored in the cloud, but cloud save storage is not active on this console.



    To turn on cloud storage on this console: From the Dashboard > Settings > System > Storage > Cloud Saved Games > Enable Cloud Saved Games.
