I have this problem randomly when I start the game: the Load Option/Continue option sometimes appears, sometimes it does not.
I'm betting that there is a timing issue between when the game loads its startup screen and when the saved files are associated with the game. It happens whether I ESC the initial video or let it lay all the way through.
I have a pair of Raid 1 SSDs and Dual graphic cards on my PC, so it's a very fast startup. The fact that sometimes the saved games appear and sometimes they don't leads me to suspect this timing issue.
Please let us know if this is a problem, and if so when your programmers plan to address it (did your testers test on very fast-I/O, graphics PCs?)
Thanks!
