Think I might be avoiding co-op for a bit!

Bought it today, looking forward to home time.

Haly, i noticed you were selling games on overclockers, you can trade in your fifa 09 in gamestation for £9.99 and get dead space or any of the other new games this week (was just in there and they had a poster up).

Thanks for the heads up But I'm trying to cut back on games mainly so it'd only encourage me to buy more which knowing me will probably happen anyhow
Cheers though

I'm gutted.

My daughter wanted a little go so we played through on her profile and when I had the chance I came in as her little henchman.

Just reloaded my game and all my stats are reset, permanent. I have no skills points, no abilities, no renown, nothing. As I don't have the renown I should have I can't continue the quest I was on.

So I need to restart, end of. Finito. Not happy, really not happy.
Did you load your own hero or just use a generic henchman?

I can't really remember. Had my daughters profile loaded, was sat playing it with her. Got prompted to press start on a 2nd controller whilst still an orphan.

Played a while, she got to the gypsy camp. It let me pick a save, I selected my game and picked a character. Played a short while. She quit and saved and we turned it all off.

Came back an hour later loaded my save and all my abilities, renown, everything is 0.

I've just played through the start with a fresh character but when I get to sync my pub game character I worked hard to get all 15 items for it won't let me.

I actually feel pretty low; I've lost any desire to play it any more, I've also been close to packing the whole thing up and getting rid of the 360. It might seem like an over reaction but as Nokkon et al. will tell you I've been looking forward to this for years and was loving it up to now. One single thing has stopped me continuing.

Another glitch discovered in the game causes those who take one of their heroes into co-op with another player starting a new game. Apparently, when leaving childhood, all experience and gold will be wiped from the co-op character. Lionhead hopes to address this glitch in a title update, but advises players to only play co-op after the childhood stage has been completed.
That sound about right?

Extends the longevity though!
But thanks for the heads-up. I'd recommend the memory card.

Edit: Packing up the Xbox360 over one glitch is very extreme even with the game in question being the disappointment, think of all the hours or joy you've had, or the little gems you've uncovered such as Chromehounds, it's a shame, but certainly not the end of the world. You may have lost your stats, but they can be re-earned, and as for not having the items from the pubgame, at the end of the day (horrid cliche) you got the achievements for them but you'll be starting the game the same as the majority of gamers all over the world... including me.

I've replayed the pub games to get a few of the basics I really wanted back and I've started back with a new character.

Still a right bloody pain though!
