Lost Stats

[veer477]

After my vista trial period expired I try to run my Call of Duty 4 file in Windows XP which it worked but all my Stats are gone. :(
My profile and stuff is there but it reseted my Stats :sad:
Now I have to do it all over again. { I was a 2 star General }

well the thing now is that you shoulda backed it up. its tied to your cdkey, so folks: if you back up your stats now and again and then keep your same cdkey, then overwrite it w/the backups when things go bad, it SHOULD work.

Hmmm .... Perhaps the stats are stored locally and encrypted using your CD key and another undefined key. If you try to use your stats with a different CD key, it won't be able to unencrypt your stats.

The same thing happend to me. Thats why we don't play silly games where we are incharge of our own stats, unlike Bf might I add. BF FTW!!!

i didn't install it again.
Its the COD4 that I ran in Vista. The user profile is in the installed directory so its not like it sits in ur my documents or somewhere like that. The way I see it ur user stats is kept with ur user profile stuff. U can even lv up by not being online and only playing multiplayer offline. So its not kept like Battlefield.

Have you come right Veer? I had to do a full reinstall of my Vista last week. I copied the entire players folder (C:\Program Files (x86)\Activision\Call of Duty 4 - Modern Warfare\players) not just the specific profile and mine is running as before, no probs. Maybe that could help the cause

It reminds me of this one time i hit a major lag spike in WoW and it disconnected me, it happened every 5 minutes and i lost everything!
No, i'm only kidding, never lost stats on WoW! :D

[veer477]

Man last night was ORSM!!!!111oneoneeleven

I took my pc to my ISP and try to sort out my lag. Turns out its a routing problem on his side and we managed to fix it locally ... now to get it fixed via the wireless... but there's hope!

Anyhow, i played online for a bit with sintax and carryOn and sniped a few boys (amazing how kief it works when u no longer have to anti-lag/project-future where the oeks will be when u shoot) ... that , and some claymores did the trick and i was awarded ... with BF2's nice drumm roll nogal...

...wait for it ...

MY BASIC SNIPER COMBAT BADGE :D :woot: :hooray: :sharp:

... which is kinda odd considering I already have my veteran badge :crazy:

... maybe BF2 awarded me for playing like a n00b :rolleyes:

[Hoss]

...and this has what do with COD?

...and this has what do with COD?

oh flip ... i thought the topic was "lost stats" - didnt look at the main forum it was under :sad: ... i didnt wanna derail, promise.

[sirfortie]

Is hoss game leader for COD now??
Hey....wat happned with 2142 anyways?

[Hoss]

No he's not COD leader, just the moderator, and he'll show further interest in 2142 if he is not the only one playing

[TG]

I don't see why he couldn't be COD leader too.

[Voicy]

What [-]Askari[/-] thatgeek said.

[senorblinky]

Is the Voice a leader now?
I vote for him!
