ALWAYS losing progress

Every single time I exit the game I lose progress (about 5~10 mins. worth).

 

I always go the main menu before I quit the game.

 

I can only play for about 30 mins a session so 5~10 mins is big for me.

 

Is this normal?

 

Also progress on my great works is just moving back and forth

Can't say I have had this problem before. I haven't noticed any losses exiting to menu or just quitting. Sometimes server connection drops or whatever and I have to quit and restart and I lose some time then.


Definition of success; like getting the juice from an orange, just suck and suck until you suck seed.

This occurs to me as well. I'm not sure how often the game saves but it seems infrequent and it doesn't always save when you leave the game from my experience.

Since exiting to the main menu then selecting quit and allowing the game to sync before shutting down I haven't experienced any problems.    Fingers crossed.

Yup.  Happens to me most games.  Extremely annoying.  I've had several games "crash" back to the main menu over the last few days and lost hours of progress. :cry:

...and the same here.

 

Carefully quit to main menu then from game, wait for the "sync with server" dialogue to vanish on its own, come back to wonder why I have no power, oh the power station I plopped twenty minutes before exiting, has been erased because despite telling me it was syncing with the server, it clearly wasn't.

Happened again today.  Lost around 2 more hours of real-time play.  My entire refining complex, my move to advanced utilities, about a quarter of the city in zoning, 1st upgrades to trading and oil HQs ... and millions in revenue.  Very annoying :cry:  :angry:
