try having your rank reset from 43 to 7, thats my situation. Its a known issue, infinity ward are working on a patch but theres currently no eta on it. So all you can do really is either play, and undoubtedly have you rank constantly reset, or just play something else till they patch it, cos its not fun losing nearly 3 days playtime :(

Actually, this has only been happening for about two days so far. It was perfectly fine before but there is a problem now. Any ranks you gain, challenge you complete, and kills and deaths you get will not be recorded. It sucks. I did so well on Friday and it didn't record my stats. I was getting games where I went 39 kills and 1 death or 56 kills and 6 deaths. I was on fire that day. I did this well for a couple of hours. I went from a 2.09 K/D to like a 2.55 K/D and it didn't register. I was so ultra disappointed. And my friend had a 45 kill streak that day. The kill streak stayed on the leaderboard but on his stats page, it didn't stay. Hope it does cause it would really suck for him if it didn't. Really hope they fix this.

the problems been around since the games release, check the infinity ward forums for the latest info on the patch for the ps3, theres also some temporary solutions to get your ranks back etc, but unfortunately what worked last week doesnt work now, so my rank is lost, many people are having the same issues, so just wait for the patch and you'll be fine, hopefully you will get your rank back, but im pretty sure mine wont return

Ok people this issues should not need to be dealt with in a patch. It's simply an issue with the data not saving to the database. This could have happened when they were testing something for that patch and accidently shut something down, or maybe their database was just overloaded with data and won't accept any more. If the latter is the case, then I'm sure they are working to get either another server or a larger server to hold all of the data but remember they need to transfer all of the old data as well as the database structure to the new one.

For now, do what I've been doing. Try things in games you normally wouldn't but might be fun, since you don't have to worry about your kdr going up or down. For instance, I spent one round trying to take down a chopper with my Desert Eagle. haha

The rank problem started 2 days ago. Not since the games release. Those were different issues that are being addressed in the patch.

There was never an issue with the data being recorded or received before so I don't know what you were referring to. This has nothing to do with the Downloading Game Settings.. issue. It's completely separate. So no the problems are not getting worse.

Also, while I agree that this stuff shouldn't happen, it's people like you who make things worse. Sometimes in order to fix a problem, you actually create a new one but in the long run its for the best. Please look further than 2 seconds into your future and also realize that its just a game.
