More context.
You all came back after months of not playing? Because yes, that's exactly what the last update was about, resetting everything to implement the new progression system.

Oh well then I guess that's it for me and this game... I am not going back to playing begginer level missions and whatever to gain money after I already did that...

I didn't play it every day but was fun to play once in a while with friends, but I guess that's it.

Thank you for the answer we weren't sure.

Just play the challenge mode. You get free T3 equipment there and on top of it you get 5000 $ for guessing the ghost right 3 times, which allows you to buy 166 flashlights per person. And you're lucky, as we've currently pretty much one of the easiest possible challenges, so the best time jumping back into the game and you get a nice sneak peak of what you can expect in the late game.

They changed the game to have a "Prestige" process where you will be leveling up, prestige to get an overall "badge" increase (with some perks), and start over again.

You don't have to re-unlock the missions and ghosts again, but you do have to select your equipment upgrades and save up cash.

Technically, what's happened is you are auto-Prestiged into Prestige 1. If you level up to 100 and upgrade your stuff and collect your monies again.. when you prestige to 2, it will be just like you are now (though with a new badge and I think some extra loadout slot and such?).
OOORRR you can just stay at Prestige 1 and play the game with fully upgraded equipment. I think you can level to 999 before you cap out and just sit there until you actively prestige.

To put it simply though... your levels and money were doing nothing but sit there as big numbers on a screen before. The loss isn't "functional", so to speak. The special armband that you can make with your pre-patch levels captures all that work you did into "a big number on your plaque/shoulder".

It'll take maybe a couple days to level back up to a point where you have mostly Tier 2 equipment and are back to what you were before the reset. At that point, the difference from one game to the next will be just like before.. maybe a few new things along the way if you decide to upgrade stuff.

One minor addendum to this, If you previously played prior to the update, you should've been auto-prestiged to Prestige 1 as described; This keeps all maps and difficulties unlocked.

However, Some people experienced the level reset bug between the last time they logged in and logging in post update- So they didnt have a save to be auto-prestiged and get to pick their level badge from; So they start level 1 prestige 0 with difficulties and maps locked.

To have this remedied you need to go to the Phasmophobia discord for support and contact mod mail.

Its pretty easy to get the tier 1 stuff unlocked. especially right now. The challenge mode is easy and youll get 5000 at the end, enough to unlock stuff and have money to spend.

And actually the way the leveling system works is that you can prestige at lvl 100, anyone that played before has prestiged to lvl 1.

Still a good game to play, even you have start from scratch

Switch to Challenge mode and it'll give you a loadout related to this weeks challenge and just ball with that on a map you like, it'll only be 1x rewards but more than enough to start out. It sucked getting reset but it's actually nice to have progression!

This has literally nothing to do with this thread's subject.
