If im correct they have said you will get special ranks for doing stuff as a team.So i would suppose there will be a ranking system like BF2 or Wolfenstein ET.

I personally love the idea of unlocking new games special weapons and items!!!

I thought you will just get XP for each campaign and when the campaign is done it resets.

In wolf ET some game severs saved XP from one campaign to another
wich was cool as you had the full set of upgrades at the start and do some pawnage to newbees

hanging on a server till you have level 4 everything, then abusing players who have just joined isn’t my idea of fun. The game was developed with xp reset as a feature, not a flaw

(ArmouredFist) #9

abusing players you mean ownage it’s a fact of life. War is not fair or life for that matter The team with the better skilled players is going to win
there’s no way around it and I don’t hang on a server till maxed out
I hang on a server because it is fun and rewarding haveing level 4 everything
And as a new player on a server i stick with it till my skills incress
no matter how much i am being owned And i like to think of my self as a fair playing player letting newbees win some

The System is fine as it is now. You earn XP during your campaign (probably 2-3Maps) and after the campaign is finished all will be reset to zero!

I really dont know what is wrong with all that statwhoring players outa there. There is nothing they could be proud of “look i have that uber cool Icarus-Ribbon for beeing in the air for about 738231 hours now”. These are approximately 738230 hours they have been useless to their Teammates, damn! :x

I DISLIKE THAT BF-FRANSHIZE!

Firist time I actualy saw someone say that xp whoring is a good thing.

I admit I enjoy playing this sandbox mode every once in a while but makeing it an official feature of the game would be worse than adding special unlockable weapons.

So yes, you do get XP points just like in ET and no, they are not permenant, they reset every three maps (one campain). You’ll just have to wait for some mode to change this.

i pray that for the console version the xp system wont be permanent either. i like the campaine stile. though i don’t know how campains will be implemented for consoles :?
this permanent skill bf like stuff ruins every game imho.

I am sure the console games will have the same facets as the PC game. XP will only be saved until the end of the campaign, then everyone will be reset to zero.

People seem to be mixing up in-game XP with the “persistant rank”. XP gained in-game will be lost after each campaign, noone knows how the persistant rank will work, except for the fact that there will be no benefit in terms of unlockables for higher rank. SD may come up with an extremely off-the-wall ranking system, such as ranking people by who does objectives…imagine that, whoring by doing objectives! \o/

So there will be XP.
It will not carry over campaigns.
It is not necessarily anything to do with the persistant rank.
It is most likely carried over to the console versions.

the system like in ET is fine but gaymod(cough*jaymod) ruines it.

Don’t know why you guys hate XP save so much. It might suck if you join a server where the lvl 4 class abilities swtich over to other classes, i.e. flamethrower with adrenaline and flak jacket, but if this isn’t the case then it doesn’t matter how much xp you have. I bet if this game doesn’t ship with XP save then that will be the first thing the community mods.

I will say that I used to love doing the xp reset every campaign. I’m real good at getting xp, so I used to be able to see my name at the top at the end of every campaign.

(Senethro) #16

XPsave is a sign of the WoW mentality invading FPSs, which is doubleplusungood. Time invested playing shouldn’t mean you get to play EasyMode Adrenaline/Flak Jacket Medic forever.

(SCi-Fi) #17

I think what ppl mean abt XP is that ppl will just find ways to exploit
certain ways just to get “POINTS” and in so spoiling the game just for the
sake of gettin “THE POINTS” instead of playin the game in the way it should
be.

Take BF2 they had loads of different exploits which ppl did over and over
just so they got the points or medals, with doin so they didnt give a
monkeys abt the battle that was goin on around them.

I dont mind the idea of XP but its the unfortunate ways that many will go
too in gettin them ie…cheating or exploits which is a shame!!

I don’t play golf myself, but I think the handicap system is a great idea that makes it more exciting for everyone who plays by giving newbies an advantage when playing against better players.

XP promotions does the exact opposite. :stuck_out_tongue:

You call yourself a fair player, yet you think having increased everything against someone that has nothing is ownage and not an unfair advantage?

knock knock
who’s there?
Hi! It’s your old pal hypocrisy! _o/

(SCDS_reyalP) #20

The thing about unlimited XP save, is it is just a reward for having been on the server a long time. Giving people a gameplay advantage simply for having a lot of spare time doesn’t seem particularly fair or interesting.
