‘I'm on xbox, so no backup save”.....read the owners manual.
Find out how to Disable the auto save feature and start manually saveing your progress.
For the PS4 I manually save when we reach a new tier level or every hour.

i understand your anger and frustration over the many ways you can glitch die in the new updated version of the game.
the only defense is to restore your game save.
Suggestion: go to the Xbox forums and start a petition to rollback the auto save feature.

Ummm, the game itself tells you it saves automatically. Try not to be so condensending.

It's easy enough to backup and download saves on PS4 (I did it all the time for GM) but I guess on XB1 it's much more complicated.......but folks have talked about a way to do it.

I’m glad you posted this. Promoted me to have a look. I’d assumed it wasn’t possible. Wish I’d known before I based jumped of a building a missed the parachute button! D’oh!

Yeah, it's really easy for us on PS4. As soon as I die, I quit the game and download the last save from the cloud. Whenever I am done with a dession (and sometimes in the middle), I will upload a save. I just save or restore "all" each time.

I don't believe he was being condescending but who knows.

Either way, there is a way that XB1 owners can back up their saves but it may come with risks and/or be more difficult than a simple process. There was a thread around here somewhere where it was explained or a link was provided.

......but that's your choice if you want to believe and research it. I'm just letting you know that there may in fact be a way as even one forum member who had been swearing up and down it wasn't possible eventually conceded (albeit with a "no so cut and dry" retort). I believe there were others on here who also confirmed.

If I were able to try and confirm it for you I would but I don't own an XB1.

I've seen the directions and they seem legit but that aside they game will automatically save to your selected device. There's no way to do that just from the basic options and his comment made it seem rather rudimentary to accomplish.

bugsoft´s internship:

- I´ve tried to fix that bug and now I have a glitch wich erases the save file.

bugsoft´s comercial director:

- call it ghost mode and deploy it as a new 'feature'.

Yes the game saves at points during game play.
what we are talking about is a save state that is separate from the game auto save.
So
Copy your Ghost Mode (revenge slot 1) file to a usb stick
Start the game and you play for an hour then you die, at which time your Ghost Mode file (revenge slot 1) is over written by the in game auto save causing your character to be whipped.
close the game out
Take the file on the usb stick and overwrite the file on your system.
restart game and select your restored character.
All progress made during that previous hour is lost, but you character is alive again.

Hummm. I got Tier 1 in Ghost Mode - Xbox One - And I don't think we need to recover saves. I died a lot, at first because of glitches, then, after update, because of my own "noobieness", Rested for a while and came back to Wildlands. Tried again and again. Now I am on my 2nd tour to Tier 1 (Tier 39 now) and still think I don't need recover saved game: Recon and kill, recon and kill - I am playing it in Extreme difficulty, full HUD for Tier mode and Extreme, no HUD for fun. No complaints so far.

@Joe_Goulart you are playing tier one mode, the OP is playing ghost mode + tier one, two different game modes, try it and then you will see what he is talking about

Made a shortcut to the save folder.
Ctrl-c, Ctrl-v before each game start.

@gap computer, you misread his comment, he is playing tier one ghost mode. I've done it. I've lost 4 or 5 characters but I made it and all it took was patience.
