[UNOFFICIAL] FALLEN STARS! ~~ Rank RESET Club ~~ + reduce screen freeze

What he said.
Where did the sticky thread go for the rank reset issue?
100s of people posted in it and not one response from any moderators about the issue....and now its gone?
And people with inquiries about rank reset are having their threads deleted?

FOR SHAME EPIC.
PEOPLE SHOULD UNDERSTAND THIS MAJOR PROBLEM AND UNDERSTAND HOW TO BACK UP THEIR DATA.
IF YOU ARENT GOING TO OWN UP AND FIX THE ISSUE AFTER NEARLY 8 MONTHS (NOT INCLUDING GEARS 2) , AT LEAST MAKE A STICKY IN THE MAIN GEARS FORUM OR IN GAME LETTING PEOPLE KNOW THEY NEED TO MAKE A BACK UP TO SAVE ALL OF THEIR TIME AND EFFORTS!!!!

I've been a fan of EPIC since gears 1 released and have supported and played all three for hundreds of hours on end, not even thinking of hearing peoples complaints and concerns....the game was just so damn good.....til now.

ILL THINK TWICE BEFORE BUYING OR RECOMMENDING ANOTHER EPIC GAME.

Shameless bump.
Where did the rank reset sticky go????
it just disappeared....-______-

Reset on 5/18/2012...Red 46....I almost broke this game in half!!! this is BS, only game I've played that "reset" my stats. Horrible. Probably gonna go get the new ghost recon and trade in gears of war 3.

[Xx t0rqu3 vT3c xX]

I really hope they have a solution to this soon. I was a RED 94 when I was reset last week. I was so mad that I wanted to throw this game away and start playing assassins creed!!!! I have restarted again. I have played this game since gears of war 1 was released and have never had any issues with this game until now. Needless to say I was not a happy person. I play this game with my son and daughter. They have taken pre-cautions so that this doesn't happen to them now!!!! EPIC you need to give us some ANSWERS!!!!!

[manster]

Got reset a few days ago, was at Red Level 71 (271, red) .. don't care much about other medals but how the heck would I get back my War Supporter Onyx again.. anyway thought I would report

[PugdogsDaddy]

Happily now there is an Official thread on the Rank reset issue I have decided I am now only going to continue this page as a place to talk about the issue

OK So I assume you have been rank reset and that is what's brought you here, Rank resets occur due to a corruption of your "player data" file. You usually won't know that your player data file has been corrupted until you boot up the game and press start at the main menu and see that you are now rank 1. Unfortunately, once you have pressed start at the main menu your corrupted player data file will also overwrite your server data when you pressed start. That is why EPIC cant do nothing to restore it, as soon as this happens there is NO way to recover your data unless you made a backup beforehand.

Official thread was closed ,are there going to be any more "Official Threads" opening up soon for my "Fellow fallen"? thanks,all have a good day.

[PugdogsDaddy]

Is there going to be another "club" like this one on the new "Gears"game coming out?Thanks for all the help,much apreciated.

[chewydipps]

ya buddy add me to this bs list. Was reset June 3rd 1:30 pm central.
first re up 87, 7 onxy medals and was reset when i turned the game on. so close to my lobotimizer.

[bwg79]

Why would you make this club exclusive? You try and fortify a group who have been afflicted by this reset glitch then you exclude people? If you've stopped adding because you can't be bothered to continually edit the post by adding others then that's understandable. If you've stopped adding because you want a special elite group with a small number then that is petty and sad. I was reset in December, 24 onyx medals and a golden lancer lost.

[PugdogsDaddy]

Don't know how you lost the Golden Lancer,that is a Gears 2 cheevo,should not have been affected and,what the hell are you talking about anyway ? If for any reaspn you think this "club" is exclusive and anyone thinks they are "special"....think again.Only club where nobody wants membership,trust me.Retro stopped updating this long time ago and the "official" thread from Epic was closed.This just a place to vent a little bit is all,relax dude.

[bwg79]

Golden lancer was given to those who played Gears 3 during launch week, so it has everything to do with being reset. Believe me, I don't want to be part of this club and wish I wasn't reset in the first place, just thought it was lame that someone would make such a club "exclusive". I'm well relaxed, just venting. That is what this thread is for right?

Sorry I just didnt have the time to keep updating the list, I would still be updating this list to the day


As for the Flaming Retro Lancer it is the only thing im missing also. Unfortunately when you profile reset you lose the Week 1 ribbon

No worries Retro! With the amount of people getting reset, the club would need updating hourly. Pretty sad.

[PugdogsDaddy]

Extremely sad and recently has been happening more frequently,that and the freeze issues that are not being addressed are very sad the way it is all being "not handled".On a side not,how are you Retro,hope all is well.I just might take you up on the "maintaining" the thread seeing that every other thread or discusion that mentions this gets closed.

Funny thing is. I logged on my friends xbox and my acc was at 94.
So weird but better then going all the way from 1 to 98
Still i wrked hard for my 98 and id like it back please

[f8l nm3]

Gamertag- f8L Nm3, Green Lvl. 70 sum, about 20 onyx metals, and a crap load of skins, including ivory and Savage Theron, which looked so nice together. I'm not even sure if i can re-unlock them again, they might be locked for good.

Since Epic can't fix the problem, maybe they could give the Fallen Stars an exclusive skin, like these salvaged/rusty ones. To signify our crappy gun collection.

http://forums.epicgames.com/threads/...-Rusty-Weapons

[Savage Decap Elite]

All I want back is my savage Theron and ivory skins I'm already over the stats I was a level351 with 17 onyx

[jutkendokenobi]

i had it happen from level 146, at first i was a bit inconvienced, alas the feeling quickly passed. sure, i had certain stats erased, some stayed, actually had my collectibles erased after the first completely accidential and unitentional reset, no biggie, gave me something to do until Gears 4 comes out. i have heard from other players that these unforeseen and unavoidable misfortunes happen from time to time, in the gaming world there is darkness and light "such is the nature of things". hopefully no other accidents happen to people, it is most unfortunate but an accidential occurrance to be sure. right?

[ARCHER MIKE]

i finally finished this game. 2000gs. the stress of being reset even though i had 2 thumb drives used only for this game made the 3.0 achv a nightmare. i got reset in january and lost skins and stuff that i won't ever see again. for some reason my thumb drives did not work to get my info back and i had to start over. so that is why i was so stressed about being reset again. hopefully this gets fixed before the next gears game. time wise the first 40 onyx medals were nothing compared to the last 25 onyx medals. i think the last 25 took twice as long as the first 40 combined.

happy 4th of july and good luck to those of you who do a 2nd attempt at finishing GOW3

[PugdogsDaddy]

I just recently posted something about being frustrated about not being able to get 3.0 because of my reset back on New Years Eve.It of course has been deleted.Why,I do not know other than it being something negative about the game.I love the series,love the game and the only thing I need is an answer on what to do after a reset to get the locked achievements.Not too much to ask,save all the time now that is not the issue.Thank you anyone for your help.There are threads but none of them from Epic direct and they require to wipe out campaign progress and I have done it twice on insane and do not want to lose anything else.Peace all have a good weekend and happy hording.

[SugarRiceDaddy]

I had a few Onyx Medals, my horde stats were all the highest rank, i was level 58. I was playing on the map trenches on insane round 26, when we failed the round and my friend had to go for a few minutes, then once my friend hadent come back for a few minutes, my other friend left, then i left to play a different game. Then when i came back i was reset . The same thing happened to me in gears 2, you really think Epic would have fixed the problem then.

[Mr Technicolor]

Rank blue 94, 41 onyx medals. Nice to know I'm not alone in these depressing times. LOL

What exactly was happening at the time? I was turning in a Silverback as the wave came to a close and the game froze.

In your own words, please describe what happened prior to your rank being reset.

The wave had just come to a close I was turning to return to cover in the Bus Station Spawn when the game locked up, handset was entirely unresponsive for a good 3 minutes, although ambient sound continued but the only way to force the game to end was to pull the plug on my Xbox, pressing the power button did not work.

I returned to the game and boom lvl1. Whoopie-do.

I can be philosophical about it as I'd only just gotten back into playing the game after several months away. Personally I'm waiting for the next gen to roll on into town so I don't really care too much. but I imagine there are many people who're mightily hacked off about this.

236 levels down the swanny. Ah well such is the nature of gaming, it's all for naught in the end unless you're planning to win cash somehow.

Ah well 250Gb rather, as if it makes any odds.
