@asukojo question, if I don't complete a challenge and lose a star then that's it ???
so I will never get to 110 BP lvl ?

@maximas1986 No, the stars are just a unit of measurement. You can gain as many stars as you can gain exp, but it’ll only stop being useful at lvl 110.

  @hayhor Lolz not really xD. If you base that on other season playtime up by this point xD. I think I played less than 30 hours since launch of S7 :P. I think it might even be between 24-28 hours.
  
  Compare that to preseason-S3 and by this point I’d already be at 50 hours xD. You guys are just slow! Get to killing ppl! Or just join hayhor for fun extravaganza

    @asukojo losing 54,399 xp or cxp weekly, can't remember now, was neither here nor there last season.
    Now taking away stars is a different matter, as stars are what good boys and girls get. So to lose a star is to imply you're a bad boy or girl. There lies the real error. 😃
    I am also minded of a quote from a popular pirate film:
    "Take what you can!" 😃

  Well, I'm level 16 as well, lost 5 stars but I don't really care, as I'm not worried about not being able to max this Season, especially if they give us 10 extra levels.
  The previous Season BPs were the same , though. A player at 53999 / 54000 XP went straight to 0 / 9000 XP on weekly resets. No one cared about the loss of up to 53999 XP, for the simple fact that this wasn't very visible in the UI. And it wasn't a bug, if they would've kept that extra XP into consideration, players would've jumped up by almost 3 BP levels on each weekly reset.
  My guess is that the "new" system is mostly updated UI and settings adjusted to linear instead of logarithmic advancement. it still relies on the previous Challenge Points internal currency. Maybe devs didn't have enough time to rebuild the entire system, or maybe they wanted to have the option to revert some of the changes easily and safely (avoiding forced level downs in case of more serious issues).

    @DoYaSeeMe In previous BP (logaritmic), reset XP is fine since the next one is 9K, so easy that you don't really feel it.
    But this time is different (linear) so it's painfull the get those star, especially for people who get it from weekly challenge and just play for fun (XP).
    If you lost in average 6 star/week, time 11 weeks = 66stars = 6.6 level.
    Respawn basically steal the star so force player to play even more or can't make it to max level then put money to level up.
    Imagine how many stars they steal out of from million players which potentially a huge revenue for them.
    A penny is not a lot, but million of pennies are huge money.
