Ok, so as has been said multiple times (and rightly so) neither of these things are fixes. What they are, are pathetically lazy. Instead of actually addressing individual issues on a player-per-player basis, as would be the professional way, you're just implementing a blanket reset right across the board. Those players who donated credits or goods to improve reputation and influence, will they be getting refunds since they'll now have done that for nothing? And exactly WHAT issues with military ranks have been "fixed" by having all progress since 1.3 lost?? I had issues with my Imperial rank, I had to do 5 naval ascension missions before I finally got the Duke rank I was owed. Since I was affected by issues which then, finally, worked, am I still losing my ranks and going back to my pre-1.3 rank of Earl?

Finally, those who are saying that they will stop playing if their games is negatively affected by these so-called fixes... that doesn't work. Frontier Developments have the money you paid for the game, they don't care if you don't play the game. You need to go public, show the result of these "fixes" in videos or screenshots. Make potential customers aware of the FD routine for "fixing" issues. If it stops people buying the game, THEN Frontier Developments may actually start using QC and in-house testing, may actually start listening to beta testers, and may actually implement proper fixes to issues, including those that were first brought to their attention during the days of Beta 1.0x and yet still keep cropping up every time there is a major update...

Pure craziness.. I mean listening to the BETA testers, after they called on us all to test.. That's absurd!

But on a more serious note.. I certainly won't be BETA testing again. No point.

Arrghhh, I was working on getting my empire and fed rep up, and I REALLY hope this update hasn't rolled back all my work. Guess I have to waiting until 5pm to get home and check.

Should we take this literally? I.e. if I get stuck 14k LY out, I will go back to Shinrarta Dezhra at the next login (which is where I last docked)? And what happens to collected exploration data?

Probably not. Some systems were pretty obscenely bugged for rank missions, you could basically go from Marquis to King in less than one hour. I assume they have backups to compare your rank gains to and if you weren't going from zero to top rank in less than a day, you should be fine.

well what about those who didnt get a promotion ALTHOUGH they did succeed and should? what about those how had some buggy promotion missions and some "working" ones? but succeeded in all of them but did get the promotion only for some? instead wiping their hard earning, theyshould add the missing ones caused by the buggy promotion missions. we dont talk about jumpin a half dozen ranks in a hour. we are talking about days. days full of costs, time and bounties caused by promotion missions.

so before fingerpointing on "easy" rank-promotions, dont forget those who had problems too but other kind of problems with those nasty 1.3 bugs.

Unfortunately, I had an Imp rank mission give me a Fed rank. I also had three Imp Rank missions give me no rank. But I srill made it from Master to Count over the weekend. If I lose all that progression (considering how many missions I did to accomplish it, and that a couple of those missions were really exasperating ), I'll be somewhat annoyed, but that seems likely.

This is frustrating.

Let's just wait...and we'll see. I hope it will be literaly as the changelog text...
I'll will be angry too, since I grinded 2 days to get the rank of Prince (I was Earl) and I was stuck because no other rank mission popped since yesterday, with nearly TONS of rep and normal mission achieved in various imperial systems....

i'M IN...
And, as I supposed, I'm still Prince :)
Changelog was clear
