Warning: Map overwritting glitch still in Halo 4
Posted By: pete_the_duckDate: 11/12/12 12:37 p.m.


The same glitch that could cause maps to be overwritten in Halo: Reach is also present in Halo 4:

"Below are the steps for triggering an overwrite of a previously saved map. Basically, do NOT use “Save Map” after re-entering a map you left and had not previously saved when you HAD saved a map before starting the new one.

1. Launch Forge
2. Create a map and save it with a unique name and description
3.Open any default (built-in) map variant in Forge
4. Go to the Start menu and select End Game
5. Re-enter Forge without changing the map
6. Go to the start menu and select "Save Map"

You will have then saved over their previously map.

Again, to avoid this, do not hit “Save Map” when you are editing a new map you’ve never saved before. Use “Save As…” instead."

I've added a warning about this to the Q&A Thread on Waypoint. Please let people know, I already lost one map myself :-)
