Re: [April 2nd] Lost account progress
@SHO🤭TER_HD This appears to be happening to everyone, and I'm honestly very annoyed and how EA/Respawn fixes it will determin if I still play the game or not. I have NO issue dropping this game if we don't get our progress back.
This started out with bugged ranked badges. This should of been an indicator that we were going to get reset. My guess: A cheater is doing this, since Respawn is "still looking into it" and they were very quiet about the ALGs hacks. However, who knows.
As you can see here, I have the account wide stat cards shown next to reset ranks: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/Incorrect-rank-rewards/m-p/13598288/highlight/true#M113446
Now it shows:
Which is pretty bad because it also gave me the silver ranked rewards, meaning our progress from S19 was also deleted up to some point, which most likely is around the time cross-progression was being added in.
Yet, like I've said in the thead, these aren't my ranks, this is:

I wish it stopped there, but:
I'm also annoyed that it reset my progress on the Shadow Society event and on the battle pass. I was around level 80 on the battle pass and I had exactly 9,800 points in the event before today, (7 days x 1400 per day, yes I no life'd Apex enough to get THAT done), and I had did the damage, play 2 matches, get kills/assists for today's, and gotten 3/5 captures, and had yet to win a match. I had gotten off due to cheaters as I decided to take a short break. I posted about that here: https://answers.ea.com/t5/General-Feedback/Matchmaking-something-s-wrong/m-p/13614142/highlight/true#M112284
Which clearly isn't true, because I've been playing S20:

Meanwhile it gave me back my crafting materials and coins from before they were spent in the Final Fantasy event, along with Apex Packs that were earned before the event went live. This would of been nice, if I only got those back, and nothing else was changed or missing.
Also my account level says 407. On the stat tracker shown above, it says my level 1446. (The first 500 levels is from the old cap. The next 500 levels is the leveling through the level 500's badge to the green Octane stim level badge. This means that my current "level" that you would of seen on the badge is level 446). I've lost 39 levels.
The only thing this "revert" changed that I want to keep, would be my linked Steam account. Steam is "linked to my EA account", but not to Apex anymore. I had removed it to try to readd and refresh it, as it was showing friends on my Steam list who I was no longer friends with, but after linking, it took me to accounts.respawn, where it said my Steam friends wasn't public. It wasn't, so I changed it, retried, and after an hour, it still said it wasn't public.
Of course when I reloaded Apex to see if its still linked to show that it was again, its now unlinked again. I wish Apex has all your friends in one place, like how Fortnite does. If you add someone on console while on PC, they would show up. Switch to your console, and they're gone. Add a friend while on your Switch, they're gone when on your Xbox, PC, etc. Friends list aren't cross-platform and Steam used to be cross-platform with Origin/EA when you linked the accounts in-game, but not anymore, and linking no longer works. I talked more about this here: https://answers.ea.com/t5/General-Feedback/QOL-Add-Global-Cross-Platform-Friends-List/m-p/13531267/highlight/true#M111766
I won't play Apex, open packs, use Legend Tokens, use Crafting Materials, use Apex Coins, or do anything that would change my account's stats or state until EA/Respawn gives word that we can play and progress wouldn't be loss, as in if I use the coins, or craft items, get kills, etc. it would simply be merged with the stats I had earlier this morning, rather than overriding. I want my account to have a better chance at being fixed this way, and I suggest others do the same. The only thing I did do, is readd my tag.
In case they don't fix this issue, good bye Apex.
P.S. they should extend the current event or just give us all the event items from the prize tracker since our progress got reset, as if we play now, it would just cause issues.
