Hello everyone, I have a question. Ive checked many forums on this subject and the results are mixed.
I recently purchased a new hard drive and i lost all my xp points and levels on cod4 when i reinstalled the game. I didnt know it was possible to save my profile until after it was too late. I tried to contact IW on the subject but basically im sol.
I recently found out that its possible to swap out my mpdata file and start off as a level 55 with all the weapons and perks. however, i am unsure if this is something i could get in trouble for.
I dont want to be banned or labeled as a cheater but on the same note i dont want to have to go through the process of leveling up again. I lost my xp when the game came out before the first patch when i joined a hardcore server so this would make the third time having to level up.
The biggest issue people seem to have is the fact that the levels and perks were not "earned" but for many who have already leveled up and in many instances several times it is just a time saving issue.I personally feel it should be no problem because it doesnt give me any more of an advantage than i had a few days ago it just puts me back to where i was. If i let my kids play on my profile for a few weeks the end result would be the same. I would have my levels back but i would have not earned it "myself". I understand this presents a problem especially when it will be used by people who never even tried to level up they just want to start out a level 55.
I just wanted your take on the issue and i will respect your opinion, Thanks
