[QUOTE="Admin, post: 64594, member: 1"] Following this week’s [URL='https://www.ign.com/games/star-wars-outlaws']Star Wars Outlaws[/URL] update that forced some early access players to restart the game, Ubisoft has offered a make-good: an in-game trinket and some loyalty points. In the wake of releasing [URL='https://www.ign.com/articles/star-wars-outlaws-patch-1000002-new-save-ubisoft']Star Wars Outlaws patch 1.000.002[/URL], Ubisoft warned PlayStation 5 players that they might have encountered issues with their current save if they were playing on the older version of the game. The solution: start a new save. Here’s Ubisoft’s initial message: Players complained that they were forced into losing hours of progress through no fault of their own, a loss made all the worse by the fact that it occurred during Star Wars Outlaws’ early access period, which was reserved for those who paid more than $100 for the Gold Edition. Now, Ubisoft has offered a make-good to affected players: an in-game Trailblazer trinket and 100 Ubisoft Connect Units. These units are Ubisoft Connect loyalty points, which can be used on in-game rewards and Ubisoft Store discounts. Here’s Ubisoft’s latest message, sent to affected players via email: These units are already being called “worthless” by some disgruntled players. “I lost 15 hours of progress,” said [URL='https://www.reddit.com/r/StarWarsOutlaws/comments/1f3k86w/comment/lkevjks/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button']redditor 00schneider[/URL]. “Well, I explored a lot so I took my time.
