Please add Migration back
Returning to the game after months was a shock to me when I realized my character progress, missions, exotics and all other things were just gone. hundreds of hours of progression and work to my outpost just disappeared. I tried using the old .bat. way of migration and it does not work. Please add the migration option back as the game seems undesirable to come back to after this.

Elissa - Producer AdminHi there,
Back in December, Icarus changed where it stores your game data. We migrated from a central server to storing your game data on your local PC. You can read more about this in our Week 53 update: https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1149460/view/3611354355089820956
For the three months after this change, everyone loading the game had their data automatically migrated and downloaded locally. In March the central servers were closed and we no longer store your game or character data. Unfortunately we can't restore it for you.
However, some community members have been sharing instructions for altering your game files in order to build your characters up a bit quicker in our discord: https://discord.gg/surviveicarus . I've attached a screenshot with that. -

TbirdHow can you delete everyone's data after only three months and without warning??!!?!?!?! I've been updating the game each week and just because I haven't launched it, you deleted my 187 hours worth of character and items? That's ridiculous. How do you not put a warning in the update title at the very least? I will never buy a game from you again, what a waste.
