The game changed my campaign difficulty, ruining my legendary run

Currently beyond furious. For the last 3-4 months, I’ve been chipping away at beating the game on legendary. Once I got to the Repository mission, I ran into an issue. The game changed the difficulty to Heroic. Luckily I caught this half way through, and changed the difficulty back to Legendary. It happened again during Silent Auditorium, and I again changed it back. Now I realize, my run was ruined by this glitch. No achievement. No service record showing I beat the game on legendary. A almost half year project with the little time I have to play games, ruined. To say im pissed is an understatement. All the bs I went through to accomplish this, immediately invalidated. The fact that im going to have to rerun this entire game from start to finish again and face all the bs I had previously triumphed over is like a massive slap to the face. I dont know what causes the game to change the difficulty of saves on its own, but it needs to be patched ASAP.

I did it making sure I only used load game rather than continue, but even now with load game, since update it changes from legendary to heroic, which is why I always double check it’s on correct difficulty before loading.

I know tickets have been done about it, iv’e sent one, so 343 are aware of it, hopefully it get’s patched soon

It´s a game
the important thing is that u had fun(?)
it is all that matters: have fun :smiley: XD
ur ego need that achievement, we all have been through that

With mission replay available, you might be able to just replay any missions that weren’t cleared on legendary? I think the missions list on the campaign map lets you know the highest difficulty a mission was completed on
