Update to 1.0.4 Deletes All Saved Games

Please explain your issue is in as much detail as possible.
Today, I started up Battletech and waited for Steam to update the game to 1.0.4. Once I got into the main menu, I could no longer load my campaign or any saved games. The buttons are grayed out, as if the saved games don't exist.

Steps to reproduce the issue
- Start a campaign on version 1.0.3
- Update to 1.0.4
- Start game
- Notice that your saved games are gone
- Rage quit and go spend more time with your family

Same problem here. Opted out of beta and things are fine again thankfully. I'm not using any mods.

Same issue here - was in public beta, no mods, showed 1.0.4-2800. Only option under campaign was New. The Load and Continue were grayed out. Exitted, opted outof Steam public beta. After download was still showing as 1.0.4-2800 but my campaign save was there.

Same report. Your save games still exist you just have to opt back out of Beta. Which means I am done playing until this is fixed because out of beta the game is too unstable for me.

Highly frustrating and really killing the experience for me.

Ok the Beta turned into the Regular game when 1.0.4 came out. So if the beta was stable enough for you to play then now the regular client should be stable enough to play. Because the beta patches turn into the regular client when it gets updated.

In the main forum thread, it's come out that it might have been changes to the save-game file locations that were in the Beta 1.04 but not in the Main 1.04.

Same, hundreds of weeks into a campaign and the only option is now only "New".
No mods, straight Steam install.

After all the problems with launch, having to constantly micro manage things like save games so it wont take 3 minutes to load a screen, having to restart my pc every time i want to restart the game(or any other game after playing this- what is it doing?), etc etc etc Now this? Can i be certain its going to run?

Did you opt-in to the beta path on patches?

If so, try opting out.
