We are looking into this issue and hope to find a solution quickly.
However, can you please try something for me? If you select the save you wish to play, then select the last Episode you played (would be Episode 4) on that save and hit Play, the game should start you at the beginning of Episode 4. Once there, exit to the Main Menu, and tab back over to Episode 4 and the Continue button should be available. Also, if you select Rewind, you should see all the available checkpoints, up to where you last left off. Try to load Episode 4 and you should start where you last left off.
Hi everyone,
WARNING, SPOILERS FOR EP 2 & 4!
I was having the same issue, i installed EP 5 today and wanted to start it, just to see that all my saves stood on EP 1 (i had finished all previous episodes). So i tried the solution you implied, Matt, and it worked, but only partly. I can now, after starting EP 4 again and then going back to the main menu, continue and rewind. So i started the last chapter of EP 4, just to make sure everything was in order. Well, it was'nt. All my decisions are still scrambled to bits. Ben is alive, but in my original savegame i dropped him. Kenny refuses to go with me, because i was to selfish in the past, but in my original savegame he was my best buddy and came along gladly. So i went back to the episode selection screen of my savegame 1 and had a look on the stats of all the previous episodes, and there, too, all my decisions were just wrong. Apparently i did help kill Lily´s father, when, in fact, i was shocked when Kenny dropped this saltlick on him...
Frankly, just right now i am kinda pissed... I really enjoyed this game so far, the different decisions and everything, and i always tried to do and find everything there is, so i spend close to 15 hours on a savegame that is now, possibly (hopefully not), lost.
By the way, my other two savegames have the same problem, and they contain the progress of my girlfriend and one of my buddies, who, i think, will be just as little amused as i am.
I hope you find a solution for this fast...
We are working on a solution for this issue, and hopefully can submit this to Microsoft soon. We do apologize for the problem you are experiencing, and that the workaround has not been successful.
