Speed Points rising up when I'm not playing NFS

Deleting the save file?

1. You keep your speedpoints (those you deserve for playing the game + those you got because of the bug) even if you delete your savegame, because the information about the amount of your speedpoints is stored on the Autolog servers - it is true, you won't get more of the speed points that are related to the bug, but still your overall speedpoints score is "corrupted"

2. The problem could happen again until Criterion is actually fixing it. You tell people to delete their savegame so they lose a lot of their progress in the game (except the speedpoints) - but what if that bug occurs again? You are an -bad word- if you say this is a solution. Criterion has to fix the bug first - there is no excuse for not fixing it.

Sure, Criterion has to fix the bug, but on the question of video game morality, and "fake" speedpoints, let me ask you this: have you ever played a game in which you kill someone, e.g. BF3? Well, if you want to get into video game morality, stealing (e.g. you gaining speedpoints for no fault of your own), is a lot less worse than killing, right? If someone offers you a million dollars for free, no strings attached, would you take it? Sure you're gaining speedpoints, but it's not your fault, if you want to be impeccable at THIS VERY MOMENT, then I suggest not playing NFS until a patch actually arrives, because some of us can't even play the game because it keeps crashing after concours (e.g. Me). Nevermind the constant gameplay crashes when finishing a speedlist after concours.

No wait, i think this is in most parts a missunderstanding. I am not questioning videogame morality or morality at all, at least not the way you think i do.

The only thing that is "fake" is the amount of your Speedpoints. But deleting the savegame will not erase your speedpoints. Deleting your savegame will come with a loss of legit progress. So you keep your fake speedpoints, but throw away legit game progress?

Gameplay crashes were not a huge topic in this thread, so let me ask you: does deleting the savegame prevent the game from crashing? If that is the case, then deleting your savegame makes sence, even before a patch fixes the bug that causes the fake speedpoints.

Oh, by the way. I am also one of the people who are experience that speed points bug (see page 1).

Yes, but the reason speedpoints aren't "deletable" from your autolog profile, is to prevent hackers from messing up your account. I think it's better to keep all those speedpoints rather than start with 0 speedpoints a new, if it really becomes *that* much of a concern, I'm sure you could pop EA an email asking them to downsize your speedpoints to such and such a value, but don't be counting on it; what's done, is done.

*Gameplay crashes are a much more severe problem as it will cause EA to lose gamers: speedpoints, not so much.

Have I contacted the "support", I'm still unsolved.
Each fought game that occurs, I gain about 500,000 sp, I already have some 18 million sp.

Very friends have abandoned me because they think I use some sort of hack, I'm getting annoyed with this too much suffer from the problem of disconnection with the game servers.
