hedgemont missions disappeared and im stuck on the first city

after tutorial, in the first two missions game told me to go to shop to level up, but the shop wouldnt let me and the few purple missions i had disappeared. after doing a few missions (that i couldnt see in the map) i ranked up and then i could get the lvl 2 box open, (i still have the first box locked) i got the 250 purple credit,my friends had got the 250 in the first level up. Currently im doing the missions with my friends to help them get their game going forward while im stuck at the first city kicking dust. Seems like im ahead of the game always.

Any suggestions what to do?
