I've grinded this game since day one, why do you guys keep spitting in grinders faces? You had a great opportunity to reward players who play the game a ton but instead you are demoting us... there goes 1400 levels wasted.

@DemonicTim what was there to grind after reaching level 100?I'm well beyond that 100 cap but I'm not complaining as I knew before hand I wasn't getting much of a reward for continuing to play outside my enjoyment of the game.Now you can actually begin to grind to reach level 500 and earn all the rewards and it shouldn't be much of a challenge to you or anyone else who says they are above 1,000.And to add on, no one else knew you were said level, but now they know what level you are thus how much experience you have with the new badges being added. This is much better than telling people, "Hey you can't see it but I'm level x ".

I do think the same even if the 100+ levels are unofficial. We played more than they who reach 100 now. If the gap will be different then we should have at least the calculated level. I mean If your level is 500, with new update 400 or so.

Hi, Lee from Respawn talks about this a little here. The level cap is 100 right now, even if enough XP has been earned to get past this, and folks will be level 100 (and be given the 14 Apex packs) when this change rolls out. However I understand that a lot of hours were put in (I'm a bit past 100 myself according to apextracker) and we'll send this feedback to the studio but I can't make any promises.

Thank you. And also, we as 100+ players could have an extra badge or a good amount of crafting metals according to the unofficial levels we had. (I'm 486, by the way.)

@DemonicTim I am lvl 804 and i am very happy with this change. The other thing is who really checks the lvl leaderboard and what do you achieve by being high level ?I think the most important thing is kills, rp. Also from the day this game started we were told lvl100 is top and that is why the game doesnt show us beyond that. Getting your unofficial Lvl from a 3rd party website doesnt really makes sense and it doesnt say you are a great player it just says you spent a lot of time.Dont get me wrong, i hate this game and love it at the same time so i am not here to defend anyone :D

This is a joke. I'm level 1100. I get back down to level 100 and get the Same reward as a level 101. I have all items exit already which means I only get crafting metals from those 14 spec packs. Now I have to grind up for new cosmetics? Level badge? You should retroactively reward Pepole that are level 1000 + with all new cosmetics badges etc. We are the Pepole that return to the game and grind.

@Bestburrito4u maybe the level badges will prestige at level 1000+
Maybe you will get a prestiged gold level 100 badge with a grim reaper and a pile of skulls.

It's just respawn spitting in grinders faces again and again. SBMM is another frustrating thing they've done. I'm about done with the game. They focus on changing everything but the bugs in the game. Xbox still has RP alt 4s. Its just turned awful. 40k kills I'm about to just give away

People grinded the level leaderboards, I was mostly grinding xbox kills leaderboard until they added skill based matchmaking now even that's pointless. Now theres nothing to grind in my opinion. You could grind the 7,000,000 exp sure but that's just a month or two play time, and it's not something you have to work for.

Tbh, I just skimmed through the change notes but I didnt see that they explicitly said they were gonna reset all levels. On the contrary, it said: "All players will be retroactively awarded any Apex Packs they should have received under this new system" in bold so I assume that we over lvl 500 will just get a bunch of packs for free?
