Important Update for X4: Foundations Players Regarding GOG Cloud Saves

[Gregory]

We would like to bring to your attention an important update from GOG that will affect Cloud Save functionality for X4: Foundations. Starting August 31st, 2024, GOG is implementing new storage limits for Cloud Saves. This restriction limits the available space for Cloud saves to 200MB per game, i.e. 200MB for all saves for that game combined. This change could result in the deletion of your save files stored on GOG's Cloud if they exceed this limit.

Key Points to Note:

• Cloud Save Limitation: GOG has announced that any save files exceeding 200 MB per game will be deleted after the specified date. This means that continuing to rely on Cloud Saves might not be viable, since X4: Foundations will often have save files which, in combination or potentially even individually, exceed this limit.

• Back Up Your Saves: We strongly recommend that you back up your Cloud Saves locally using GOG Galaxy before the deadline. This will ensure that your progress is not lost. You can manage your Cloud Saves through GOG Galaxy by downloading them and reviewing your saved data.

• Disable GOG Cloud Saves: To avoid any complications, users can disable the Cloud Save feature using the GOG Galaxy settings. This will prevent any potential issues related to the new storage limitations.

We understand that this change may be inconvenient, and our aim is to help you navigate it. If you have any questions, or need assistance, feel free to reach out to the GOG support team.
