Corrupt?!?! Noo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

DAMN THEM! DAMN THEM ALL!

I came back from dinner tonight (birthday lobster hehe) and I turned on the cube. Everything booted up fine. Then the message from HELL came up:

Data corrupt. Must delete files. Ok?

I said no like fifty times and it still brought up the same message. Does ANYONE know why that happened? I'm using a Memory Card 59, first party.... And I'm bloody pissed. The only thing that really was a highlight for me was I was finally able to use my MUSASHI, and my brother and I both found MAGs offline. But, nothing else was big, just played with some people. It totals to around 44 hours so far in a period of 3 days... those files were special. I lost like ten Rares, five of them g-class ;_;

Has this happened to anyone else? If so, any suggestions so it doesn't happen in the future?

Hmm. Did you ever reset or shut off your GCN while it was saving? That's the only reason I can think of.

Dyne · 12-30-2002, 11:27 PM

Never. Never, ever....

;_;

Well, maybe it was the opposite. Maybe it was bad that I left the Gamecube on for 14-hour periods.

Hmm... only thing I could think of is if you turned off the system during a save. You sure you never quit, popped off the TV, then hit the system not realizing it was saving?

I use a 251, never had it happen. Doubt anything is different with the 59.

Dyne · 12-30-2002, 11:34 PM

Never ever... I was really careful too..........

Oh well, at least I'll have experience under my belt.

gekko · 12-30-2002, 11:41 PM

Ya, but experience doesn't get 40 hours of play time back. That could be another character just as far along.

And you lost 10 rares? I've only SEEN 4!!! 3 I've seen in a game, 1 was dropped on Pioneer 2 because it was only a Flowen's Sword.

Dyne · 12-31-2002, 02:06 AM

Yeah, I found two rares just sitting around on my first day. I found MUSASHI and a photon drop. About 5 I got from my friends, and the other two I picked up. I feel so EMPTY ;_;

All I've found so dar is 2 P-Drops, a Booma's Right Arm, and a Blade Dance. Can't even use any of them. So I gave the Blade Dance and Booma's Claw to my brother and I heard P-Drops can be traded in an online quest for Add Slots and other good stuff...

Edit - Dyne, losing a character has got to suck. I'd be pissed...

I havent had any problems with my Mem. 59 and I've had it before the 'Cube even came out.(Although it wasnt used until it actually came out, duh) But Im with everyone else, you might've hit power when it was saving. Or maybe a family member did and you never knew

..................

Gah, it MUST be my little bro!! Grr! Thanks....... He always did play without my permission. I think I'll go kick his ass now and delete his new character. See how he feels.

EDIT: Naw, that's kinda cold.... oh well... I'd rather spend time leveling up my sexy new character. My other one was SO ugly... I'd rather stare at a chick for hours on end than an ugly man-android thing in armor.

well maybe now you won't leave your GameCube on when your brother is around...

I also would rather look at a chick for some time in a game rather then a guy.
