Steam Engine Resets COD Black Ops Level

call-of-duty-black-opssteam

Hoping someone might be able to me with this.

I play CoD: Black Ops multi-player on-line a bit, I think I'm a prestige 5 level 47? Or at least I was, until Steam reset my settings.

I had some internet trouble, but after one bout, steam synchronization says it couldn't sync my files and to keep playing. So I select to keep playing, and it's fine. Until today, when I played and all of a sudden I was back to prestige 0 level 1 in the middle of the game. And no matter how many times I restart, it hasn't come back.

I've sunk a fair bit of time into this game, so I'd like to know if I can get my score back.

Any thoughts? Thanks in advance for your help!

I have encountered this exact same problem before with Steam Cloud, but with the game Brink instead. What you need to do is sync your game with Steam Cloud. This will solve your problem by resetting your game back to the previous save that's floating around up there in Steam Cloud, which in this case is your level 47 character. HOW TO DO THIS: Right click on Black Ops in Steam Library, and click properties. After that, click the Updates tab, and uncheck the box that says Enable Steam Cloud synchronization for Call of Duty: Black Ops, close that window, than enter properties for BlOps again, check the box, and exit. There may be a prompt asking if you want to restore, etc. and just click "Yes". That should restore your character to it's previous glory.

Hope this helps!
