(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Hey guys, after many times trying out different methods, I finally got my rank to stick, the only bad thing is that my stats have stuck too so I have like a 200+ killstreak.
To get my rank to stick, I ranked up to rank 50 on LAN and maxed out (no XP left for prestiging) I then left the LAN lobby and pressed Player Match, I then pretiged before entering an online game. I then played Team Deathmatch until I was about Rank 12.. After each lobby I would buy what ever I had unlocked and keep changing my CTAG anfter each game. When I reached level 12 I left my PS3 on until 00:00 GMT when the contracts update. I then turned my PS3 off using my controller started Black Ops back up.. clicked on Player Match - I was rank 1 no prestige, i was gonna cry but then it came up as a black loading screen & I got a message saying something and the last sentence had my rank at which I stopped at (lvl 12 prestige 1). I then pressed Player Match again and I was rank 12 Prestige 1

NOTE: I did this on my main account but bypassed to get reset so I think you need to be Rank 1 with no online games played.

Here's a pic of my rank and you can add me to look at my combat record..

you do realize that theres no need to buy anything or play any games right?... just leave your ps3 online until playlists are updated... just felt like telling you

Oh well I wasn't taking the risk lol **** spending your time doing LAN for that long to **** it all up ( as I've done many times before )

how do u know playlist updates

One way of telling is when you try and join someones match or lobby it will say the player has a newer playlist than you and you can't join.

lol good shit guys

how long do you have to wait till playlists are updated??

Check my other thread to see what time the contracts update wherever you live. Another way is when it is nearly time for the contracts to update when you press Contracts at the very bottom it will say ... minutes until you can buy new contracts, hope that helped.

So I can't do this on my main?

Yes you can. Yesterday I went from prestige 2 to prestige 6 doing the glitch and today, when I went started my PS3 and went to Multiplayer, I got the same error as OP. It sticked, but not on prestige 6... And yes, with this account I played online matches before and zombies too on PSN.

Hope this helped.
