Lego Avengers game will not save

we just got the Lego avengers game and it will not save our progress. We have chosen a slot to save progress, have hit save several times during playing, and hit save and quit upon exiting. This is getting very frustrating since we don't want to have to
play from the beginning each time. Any help is appreciated

:)

 

Oh Yeah! HULK SMASH!!!

Lego Avengers will be the best superhero game ever.

 

Xbox One: Lego Avengers - unable to load saved game

(Note: This is for Lego Avengers, not Lego Marvel Superheroes. Lego Avengers was not an option in the dropdown.)

I have been playing Lego Avengers on my Xbox One for 6+ months. Today, when I went to load my save game, the game was displayed normally (45% progress). However, when I clicked to load the game, it started at the beginning:

...

1. I Pressed A to select Load Game. My game (45% progress) was listed in Slot 1.
2. Pressed A to load the game.
3. Pressed A to confirm loading game.
4. Screen got to Load successful, then said that autosave will be in Slot 1. I pressed A.
5. Instead of starting where I normally do with this saved game (in Central Park), the game restarted: pans to the sceptre, Maximoff's holding hands...after the opening scene, it gets to gameplay (Hawkeye and Black Widow in the snow). If I quit at that point,
   it just takes me to the game start screens.

I have made a system change since I played last -- added an external hard drive. However, since I have done that I have been able to successfully load saves from a different game (Fallout 4). Did adding the external hard drive cause a problem for Lego Avengers?
Is there a problem with my saved game?

Please advise.

Thanks!

 

You can find computers with a blueish glow in game.

That are your save points.

Save there and you'll start from there the next tlime you start the game.
