PC Corrupt Save Game/Resetting Speed Points

I was playing Most Wanted today and my PC crashed mid race, after starting up the game i was informed that my save game was corrupt and after pressing next the game started from the begining. 

I was about 50% through the game and had just beat the bugatti veyron, now im at 0%, i have no cars and i still have all my speed points. Is there anything i can do to get my save back? 

As soon as the game started again the new save was automatically synced with Origin, so im guessing that overwrote any previous saves that i had in the cloud.

    When a save file gets corrupted, there's really no way to recover it (or an older version of it) because Most Wanted's autosave feature is constantly overwriting the previous save file. Sorry, it's gone.

    Thanks for the reply . I can always replay the first half of the game in a day or two. The thing that's weird is i still have 700K speedpoints even though i started a new game.

    There is one, small hope mate.

    Go to Origin

    Right click on Need for speed in games library

    Show game details

    Click the "cloud storage" tab, (upper left)

    On the right is "restore save"

    Check the time stamp under that button, with any luck it might get you some of your game progress back.

    I tried that after it happened, and no luck. 

    According to EA Support on Twitter i might not even be able to get my speed points reset, so my game is now completely useless. 
    I have 700k speedpoints and 0% completion. By the time i get to 100% completion there would be no way my friends would ever be able to catch up. I bought this game so i could play against friends, now it's just a waste of money.
