I am deeply upset by the announcement that Activision will be resetting all Cold War prestiges on December 2nd.

What was the point of even having levels then? What did I work so hard to grind for? For it all to be erased? This has made me never even want to play a future cod game again. The community should be very loud about this. You wanna reset us to Level 1, fine. But taking away the 27 prestiges we worked hard for is unacceptable. I will not be playing future cod games if this is the case.

To clear up some of the confusion, here's what you can expect when Vanguard's Season One arrives (with more info to come as we get closer to Season One launch):

  • Current Prestige Progression will be memorialized in Black Ops Cold War, Warzone, and Modern Warfare.
  • Keep Your Unlocked Content - All earned weapon, loadout, and Prestige-related content will remain unlocked.
  • Prestige Emblems & Stickers - Players will retain access to all earned Prestige Emblems & Stickers.
  • Prestige Keys - Players' Prestige Key collections will remain intact. Playing in any title will continue to earn Prestige Keys in Black Ops Cold War at every 50 Season Levels.
  • Prestige Shop - Prestige Shop content in Black Ops Cold War can still be unlocked after Vanguard Season One begins. Players' current Prestige status will carry forward in Prestige Shop requirements, so that any content that requires a Prestige Level will remain available based on Black Ops Cold War Progression. Black Ops Cold War Prestige Icons will also be available in the Prestige Shop as custom icons.
  • Prestige Master Ribbons - Players' Prestige Master Ribbon progression will carry over into Vanguard, with 6 new Prestige Master Ribbons being added to the system.
