Online Reset Glitch SOLUTION!

[XBlackoutX-6]

I figured out a SOLUTION to the glitch where randomly your entire online progress would be reduced to level 1. I am going to tell you exactly what happened to me (in explicit detail), and how I avoided the reset. NOTE: this will not help people who already reduced themselves to level 1 and saved.

 

First of all, I was aware of the glitch when I first started levelling up for the online trophies. I was always worried it would happen to me. Because I'm extremely paranoid, I was always watching for it. Today was the day it occurred. I was already level 30 overall, and with Bane, and level 28 with Joker. The game froze mid-game, so I had to turn off the system (no big deal, it freezes a lot). When I turned it back on and went into online however, I noticed my Arkham Online Rating was 1. WHAT!? I immediately shut the system off in disgust. I went back online and checked again. It said 1, and tried to start saving, so I immediately shut it off. Then I went and sent a scathing email to WB Montreal. Sometime later, I logged back in again, hoping that because it never saved, it wouldn't count. Sure enough, it read 87 for my Arkham Online Rating. YES! 

 

Online it just like offline play. If you shut off before it finishes saving, you're progress won't count. I guess eventually it was able to read my true online progress. 

 

So ALWAYS make sure to look at your level after every disconnect and when you first login. Make SURE it's correct, or shut it off before it saves. I hope this will save someone the heartbreak that I saved myself.

Doesn't doing that corrupt the save file, I mean it seams dangerous on an already broken down online. This could really screw up someone who is playing singles campaign.

Honestly, turning it off in the middle of a save did nothing to my data when I was getting the "I Am The Night" trophy (whenever I died, I would immediately turn it off before it finished saving, and it had no repercussions). I figure the same logic applied with this glitch. 

 

I think game saves are different than they used to be in games. I think the program tries to create the new save first, then erases the old one after, so turning it off in the middle would never corrupt the data (because at any given point, there is a file to read). But I don't know, I'm not a game designer.

What you need to do is simply copy your save data from you multiplayer onto either a USB stick or copy it to the PS+ cloud then reload Batman Arkham Origins multiplayer and it will create a new save for your multiplayer but all your stats and levels will all be the same as before

except not, because it happened to me while at lv 21 and I've tried that strategy 10 times and it didn't work
