In game, the perk will show for example 4545/5500 headshots needed for level 5. As soon as you disconnect the game and check the "achievements" in the main menu it has reset back down to a lower number.

Sometimes this is the number that you originally get when you initially start the game (before playing any to increase said perk). And sometimes it's slightly higher.

Does anyone know why this is happening? This has been true through 3 reboots already and different maps (user created or official). It's really aggravating to get say 200 headshots in a session and not have it count at all once you exit the game.

Is it just me or is it bugged?

Sharpshooter perk delevelling

I've got the same problem as you but I've got lower level. When I reach 3 level of sharpshooter and end the game my level is not saved and I must do this again. Please help me with that.

It takes up to 10 seconds for it to send the value off to Steam. Also, there is a possibility that it's getting lost in Steam's system and not getting sent off to Steam's Database.

Since this is the first I've heard of such an issue, I'm assuming that it's not due to the game, which hasn't changed in that respect since launch, but rather due to some outside factor, such as Steam(which changes every week).

I've noticed the same thing. Over the past two days, I have leveled my berserker damaged from 2.3 to 2.5 -eleven- times, and it never sticks. Some friends of mine are also having the same kind of problems, the damage just resets after each map change/disconnect.

I've having the same problem with commando and firebug damage. I've waited much longer than 10 seconds; this is a permanent-type memory problem. None of my friends can level their perks. One of my friends even lost a little damage somehow. Please talk to Steam and fix ASAP, perks are a big part of this game and no one can level up...

I have this problem as well. I recently got level 3 firebug. As soon as I returned to the main menu to check the perks, it reset back to level 2.

When this gets fixed we should get like a double exp event or something.

I have something similar but not exact, my perks have frozen their progress and I cannot gain progress what so ever.
