Sudden Module Reset, lost all progress for no reason

Post » Thu Dec 06, 2012 7:12 am

The weirdest thing happened today.

I just joined for a few rounds of IA with some friends when I notice that I am casting a shadow in Stealth mode (I had level 3 SE so that should not happen). Although it has happened before that the game seems to forget that I am level 3 and sometimes randomly casts a shadow anyway, gameplay seemed a bit rusty, so I wanted to change my load-out and there I see it, all the modules at level 1, no kills except for the ones I made during my first match of the evening.
Earlier that day I played a few rounds too and everything was just fine, and a few hours later, for no apparent reason, all module progress lost !!!!!

This is unacceptable!

I am now level 39, 4th reboot (rebooted a week or two ago). And I am ranked 195 th player worldwide. Not really a noob anymore I would say ...

When I go to the weapon customization menu, all my guns are unlocked (except for the Gauss and Mike), all the attachments and scopes that I unlocked earlier are there ...

Also, I rebooted to get the CELL skin for the GAUSS, it is supposed to unlock at level 39 I think, well it didn't...and I am pretty pissed about it too.

What the hell happened here ???

So this on goes out to Crytek, explain !!!

For the record, I am NOT going to work up my modules again to find myself punished by another glitch or whatever later on again, I want to know what is going on.

When I was third reboot, i noticed that my retriever module (it was level III at the time) also suddenly reset back to level one for no apparent reason, but it was just that one module. Now it's all my modules, reset all at once...

For crying out loud, it's frustrating!

Imagine that, but a reset of all your stats + level 3x. Then you know how I and flywheelem3 felt.

I noticed when I re-boot'd; when I first unlock a class, the mods show as level III (if I got them to level III) ...until the next time I logged in.

I feel for you mate, **** thing to happen.

I've also had retriever reset to level III, and I just never used it again. It's nothing compared to what happened to you guys though. ):

Turns out all of my skill assessments and weapon assessments also reset, so it looks like I will unlock weapon attachments that I have already unlocked, haha. Can't believe that's even possible...

I sure hope C3 will be a much better build and more stable game, cause damn...

Oh and by the way, I got my CELL Gauss at level 40, so the info I got seems to be incorrect.

I think some of your other stats have gone too Greevuz :-(

...any idea what caused it? Or just one of those things? Did you have all your Dog Tags?

Yeah I'll have to dig a bit deeper in my stats to see what actually all reset'd.

The funny part is that I have Weapon Attachment unlocks now for things that are already unlocked. So they are just accumulating now.
For what caused it, I have no clue, it never happened before and I have done nothing special... The only explanation I can see is that my console had a few freezing problem a few days back. Sudden image freeze followed by the impossibility to unfreeze so I had to switch off the console a few times. It's the only thing I can think of.

I also don't know where the stats are saved, on the local hard drive or on EA servers?

I took a look into it, it's worse than I thought.

To keep it short, What remains: My World XP rank, my weapons and their unlocked attachments and my unlocked modules

But: Modules have all been reset to level 1, zero kills accounted for.
In my Leaderboard data, all has been reset: playtime, number of kills, wins and losses, skill kills etc...

Also all Skill Assessments have been reset to zero, lost everything!

What makes me wonder now, leaderboard data is not stored locally on my console? You need server connection to access it. So... EA servers **** up?
I always wondered how sometimes good players in my friendslist managed to have very strange (meaning: almost nothing) playtime while highly ranked, now I know!

That is REALLY freaking lousy. I know what that's like because my bro made a new account (PSN) awhile back to get away from the SAME problem! It's all good now though he's almost lvl 40.

It has happened to me too Greevuz. It's a glitch or some kind of **** like that in the game. But look at the bright side. You haven't lost your exp in the leaderboard. Flywheelem3 used to be 6th in the world and suddenly one day the game reset everything for him. He not lost his weapons and modules but close to 30 million exp point. That's **** ain't it!

I had less XP, but the same happened to me 3x times, but I didn't lost my stats only, I lost my guns too! I only had the assessment 'Reboot' still unlocked. Everytime I left the multiplayer, I had to customize my equipment again and retriever resetted all the time.

Thanks for the support guys! You are all great.
It should not have happened though, not to anyone! Such a meaningless reset should not be acceptable, it's just unfair.

The first week I was seriously pissed off by it, now that I restored the most useful modules to level III, I can cope. But still, Not sure if I will go through the trouble of upgrading the other modules since most of them are not really useful in multiplayer.

If s*** like this happens in Crysis 3, I'm gonna sue Crytek. For real. Personally I've just had the Retriever glitch, which is common. It's hard to believe that a game this big can have such glitches.

Same thing "nearly" happened to me. Hopefully I've avoided it.

I was playing on a 1 bar red connection (IA, a few of the D4RK and DOA clan were playing) ...so I was getting thrashed :) ...anyway second game, I noticed it took a long time to join the game from the loading screen ~ and the lag was awful.

I noticed from doing an air stomp that there was a delay; and I'm level 3. I got killed and noticed that ALL my mods were level one. So I left the game, checked my classes - and they were all level 3.

Went to find another game ~ dropped back into the same lobby. Again on a red bar, as the game started I noticed all my mods were level one. So I left before any game data could save.

So far, everything is OK ~ if you notice your suit mods aren't at the correct level, leave the lobby ASAP.

Good to hear that you didn't lose everything!
It must be the weirdest glitch the game has, and it seems to be more common than I originally thought..

I heard this mostly happens when the host of a private match disconnects while you are in the loading screen.

...whatever caused it for me, probably happened in the loading screen.

Everything seems OK now, except when the game starts (as your character loads on the game) ~ all three suit mods are level one. Although, when playing game and in my custom classes they are all level three.

Considering deleting my data from the PS3 and re-loading it, never really played the campaign anyway ~ so hopefully will not lose anything.

Just an update ~ for anyone who is interested.

I've deleted all my game data; only thing I seem to have lost is Retriever III ...that's back down to level one.
The Dog Tag I was missing, is still missing. Not had chance to play, so not sure if suit mods show as level one at the start of the game.
