I got on today and my online rank for Gears went from 54 to a 1. Why? I didn't cheat? I don't have a modded xbox/ controller. What did I do wrong?

Yeah, I thought it was a glitch too. But I've played 3 matches and now I'm a level 8 and I don't think it's going back to normal. Plus it's showing me the achievement tracker for achievements I've already obtained.

you should try to report this to Xbox Live customer support to find out what is going on and see if they can retrieve your stats back

That sucks dude, though it really sadly doesn't surprise me, there's been nothing but hastle with the Gears 2 online since it came out, first unable to find games and such, and now rank resets.

The same thing happened to me when they released their latest dlc and you could play online with a silver account for a couple of days. I was only lvl 18 and I rarely play online so it didn't bother me too much.

I heard that Gears2 had some online glitches, but this is the first I've heard of a rank reset.

That's nuts. I'd deff call a hotline or something to try to get your stats back if it means that much.

Thanks for the help guys. I'm not going to call and make a big deal about my rank being reset since it's only a number and doesn't show your real skill in the game. I'm just mad that it happened. Stuff like this shouldn't happen :(

Haha I thought they fixed this? Go figure Epic doesn't do anything right and yet they have blind followers who still pretend their games are the greatest.

Man, that blows. I'm sure it's persistently tracked online, but are you sure you're not loading the game from anything other than the device you saved your game on?

I had heard that it had something to do with signing into your profile while the game was loading. Epic claimed that they fixed this but thats what might have happen to you.

Has anyone been in a match with hackers yet? I was just in an Execution match with some, game was super slow, I started with 100 frags and over 1000 shells for my Shotgun.. every time you killed someone you got an insane amount of points (can't remember the exact number) You earn so much points that you go into negatives and lose your rank. The hackers gave themselves more health and could down you in 1 shot from the shotgun. My friend said everyone went down to rank 1 (he was 68, so he was pretty damn pissed) The hackers kept their ranks. So I'm going to stick to the first till this is sorted.
