New save system
- You will now be presented with 5 save-game slots (each of which can be used for any game mode).
- Your existing saves will be mapped into these slots
- Selecting an empty slot will start a new game, allowing you to then pick which game mode to play from the mode select menu
- There are now two sub-slots for each save-game – one for auto saves, one for manual saves
- Starting a new game with no existing saves will take you directly to mode select
- If you experience any problems with the new save system, be sure to let us know!
