If you were about to fire up Call of Duty to play a round of MW3 or Warzone, only to see your level reset to 1, you’re not alone. Below I’ll explain the level 1 reset error in Call of Duty.
MW3 GLITCH *RESET EVERYONE'S STATS* (LEVEL 1 ERROR) Modern Warfare 3 Servers Offline
When you’ve spent countless hours leveling up, completing your loadouts, progressing through your battle pass, the last thing you want during your Call of Duty gameplay is for it all to be taken away prematurely. So when you try to log into the game and see that your level has been reset to 1, you’d be terrified.
However, I assure you that there is no reason to worry. You may be facing this issue due to server-side errors, as various updates, patches, or bugs can disrupt the game, preventing you from accessing your loadout, battle pass, or even launching the game. This can also lead to other minor issues that you may experience, such as the Minot Hawthorne error.
