if you're wondering, no, this isn't me bashing th e MP. so, my friend came over so we could play horde. and he brough his memory unit. so he plugged in his MU, and we started playing horde on Courtyard. when I picked up a longshot, the tutorial popped up. when I got a perfect active reload, achievement progress popped up for the reload achievement. and when I got 1 kill, the seriously achievement showed up at 1 kill out of 100,000. so, the progress bar for my achievement will show up even thought I already have that achievement. the thing I'm REALLY mad about is that I had 48,000 kills, and now I have 93. so, in a since, almost all of my progress is gone. I've almost lost my insipiration to play anymore.

So, you aren't playing a game anymore... For a simple achievement? :|

that's not it. it just feels like all the time I put into that game was for nothing. I mean, I'll play it again soon, it just angers me how all the progress I had was erased in an instant. because I've put well more than 150 hours into it.

He was probably keeping track of it a lot, if this happened I would get disheartened too.

Well read your topic. "Gears 2 is almost dead to me now." Do you realize how useless it is to throw away such a good game just because it doesn't say how many locusts you really killed? It's up to you, but if you do want to get rid of it, I'll be happy to take it off your hands.

The same exact problem happened with me, the seriously 2.0, the party like it's 1999 and another one I can't remember. Now I can't even get into a game to get those up again.

There's a lesson to be learned here... real gamers should not have friends.

I FINALLY got the urge to play it again today. I really enjoyed it, obviously. even though my stuff is gone, I'll get the number back up eventually, though. the only thing that pissed me off when playing was that me rank was reset back 0. I was 25 now I'm 0. other than that, I'm enjoying the game now more than ever. :D

I've heard about this a lot from the Epic Games forum.. also happens if you play split screen online apparently.

What rank did you lose?
