# Hood Warfare 2 Level or Unlock Progress Changed? Investigate changed Hood Warfare 2 levels, unlocks and attachment counters. Preserve before-and-after evidence without destructive resets. Canonical: https://hood-warfare.com/hood-warfare-2/fixes/progression-display/ Published: 2026-10-25 Updated: 2026-10-25 Page reviewed: 2026-10-25 Evidence: Reviewed game references + suggested player exercises Version scope: Prepared October 25, 2026. Official changes through 1.0.2.0 and dated community observations are distinguished from suggested exercises; no independent client tests. ## Quick answer Compare account level, the selected weapon challenge and cosmetic progress separately. Preserve before/after evidence before deleting files or assuming a permanent reset. ## Which progress value actually changed? Identify the record before attempting a repair What changed Capture this Do not assume Account level appears lower Level before the match, end-of-match display and next menu That a different attachment requirement must also have reset. A weapon is unavailable Exact weapon, current level and lock text That a launch-week secondary unlock list guarantees the current requirement. An attachment counter differs Weapon, attachment, printed condition and before/after count That every kill in every session counts. A cosmetic remains locked The exact skin requirement and selected weapon That account level alone earns it. A loadout seems missing Selected slot, equipped weapon and build That a saved setup and earned progression are the same record.

In an October 12 discussion, players reported falling levels and lost access to unlocks. A developer-tagged reply described progress not catching up with the server and promised a fix. Other replies disputed that explanation or continued reporting unexpected values. This is a historical exchange, not a diagnosis of every present-day case. Patch 1.0.10 separately reports fixes to progression display at the end of a match and loadout presets not saving. A corrected display, a synchronized account and a restored preset are different outcomes. Record which one you observed rather than collapsing them into “everything reset.” The thread supports preserving a before-and-after report. It does not support a guarantee that waiting, restarting or editing a file will restore a particular account. Do not use another player's old reassurance as proof your current data is intact.

Record the installed version, current level, selected loadout and exact unavailable item before changing anything. Read the condition on that item and separate a level requirement from a weapon challenge or skin goal. If investigating one challenge, keep the same weapon, item and session type; note counters before and after a completed attempt. Return to the relevant menu and compare the same field. Record whether the change appears only at the match end or persists afterwards. If values remain inconsistent, keep the original captures and prepare a dated report with the failure sequence. A planned comparison is not a reason to spend hours farming an unreliable counter. Stop once you have a clear repeat case. Bot or custom-room credit remains a separate rule to establish; a missing increment alone cannot prove a global progression reset. ## Which actions should you avoid as a first response? Avoid deleting unknown save or configuration folders, downloading replacement progression files or making multiple resets before recording the evidence. These actions can erase the setup and sequence needed to explain the fault. There is no verified local save path or universal reset procedure provided here. Steam file verification checks installation integrity; it is not an account-progress restoration service. An explicit account restriction likewise belongs to its issuer's support route. If the fault is simply a wrong selected slot, use the current equipment screen to correct it before treating the result as missing ownership. Keep a blank progress comparison card and use the evidence submission guidance for a correction or case report. The progression guide explains the three tracks so the report names the right one. ## Sources and scope - [Hood Warfare 2 · Steam store](https://store.steampowered.com/app/5155360/Hood_Warfare_2/): Release, Windows requirements, modes, customization and progression; checked 2026-10-22. - [Steam discussion · level resetting](https://steamcommunity.com/app/5155360/discussions/0/594069880290965227/): October12–13 historical player reports and developer-tagged synchronization explanation; other replies contest it.
