I've had this same problem. I also read the release notes. From my understanding, it sounds like you should be adjusting the level with the up and down arrows rather than typing the number in. Correct?
The thing is, I've tried that. I started out with a weapon at level 60 that I obtained as a drop. On my first attempt I just deleted the text in the field and entered 70. In game, this did nothing. - Next, I duplicated the item, tried again, and got nothing. - I then read this and attempted to change the item level with the arrows on both items. Nothing happened. The only way I could get said item with a new level of 70 was to create a blank item and re-enter all of the affixes.
Since then, I've tried changing the item level on several other items with the same results. Entering the text does nothing. Using the arrow controls does nothing... IN GAME. Every time you load the savefile in the editor it WILL show the items at level 70, but there will be no difference when you load the game on a console. The only way I can get the items I want to be level 70 is starting from scratch.
Now, with all this being said, I could be doing something completely wrong. If so, I'd love to know what that is. :) P.S. I am playing on an Xbox 360.
