wow can we just pass around the clan leadership to the ppl who've been in the clan for a while? hehe. Can't wait to get back to WH (i'm in Europe and won't be back home for another 2 wks)

Yeah we should do that if it works. Custom sountracks..so awesome, got like 10 new trophies already...woot!

I shot down a Warhawk with a tank yesterday, but I didn't get a trophy for it today.

That one is not retroactive. The retro ones are pretty much all statistics based. On another note, I still won't rank up from the point changes in 1.4..sigh, figured they would have fixed that by now. I get recommended for Major every time I play a ranked game but it never comes.

And they made him a Lord of Cinder. Not for virtue, but for might. Such is a lord, I suppose. But here I ask. Do we have a sodding chance?

Not every trophy is retro active. The ranks/medals etc are.

Also, I just created a dedicated ranked match! 3 hours to go :lol

So let me get this straight, you made me clan leader, before the trophy for being clan leader was implemented.

Edit:

Holy shit, I just got the trophy for it. Looks like that one's retroactive. :X

Er, thanks, Steroyd! XD

How was I to know that there'd be a clan leader trophy. :lol

Might as well play pass the parcel then.

Don't get me wrong I WANT to play Warhawk and I do browse this thread often, but the servers and dumb people make it less enjoyable for me, it makes it feel like a chore sometimes. :|

I'd love to have leader (seikenchan on PSN) when you're done :)!

Obviously I'll give it to the other person on GAF who wants it.

EDIT: Oh yeah, here's a guide of how to get the tutorial where you're supposed to get the mines that are on top of Rumble Dome (Trophy).

The most important addition, The Humpers - Wake up and Lose! :lol
 
So I guess people with jetpacks going to be able to plant mines in the Cluster Caves in the Badlands, the TOW Cave in Archipelago, the small Lightning/Cluster Caves in Vaporfield, etc. That could get annoying FAST. It would be so hard to see the mines, basically impossible unless you're hovering.

Damn, I never thought of that. Let's keep that gaf's little secret, ya? :D

And holy hell. I just checked the server list and there were just under 900 games open. I know that a lot of them are for trophy grinding, but still, I haven't seen the list that populated in a long time.

Whoooo, played a LOT today. Finally hit one thousand hours. XD

Got a bit over 50% of the trophies too.

So. Aside from passing around the clan leadership, who is really going to be clan leader 4 realz yo? I honestly would rather not be clan leader. We also should set up some clan matches for the Rivalry trophy.

For the moment, I'm just going to hand leadership back to Steroyd.

Edit: Actually, I just had a thought. If the arbiters see clans passing the leadership around for the trophy, they might end up erasing stats or something. I'm going to sit on it for a while until things shake out on the Warhawk boards. Blah. :|

How on earth can they "see" clan leadership being passed around.

Besides it's a wham bam thank you mam affair, it's not like they can take it back.

Okay I'll post it in both threads, I really want this explained.

I haven't played Warhawk for a long, long time but when I did, I totally played it a lot. I got Air Marshal with 10.000 points and now that I've come back to Warhawk, I see that it requires 130.000 points! Now, I already got the rank but how in the hell am I supposed to get to the next rank? It requires me to have 155 THOUSAND points (that's 145.000 points than I currently have! FOR ONE RANK!)

Have they really increased the amount you need to rank up? If this is the case, it's fucking SICK!

It took me 45 hours of gameplay to reach 10k points. Based on my calculations, for me to get to the next rank, it should take 630 hours. What the hell is this bullshit?

Am I totally lost or can this really be the truth?

Recruit 0 None
Airman 100 None
Airman 1st Class 500 Bandit Teamwork
Sergeant 1 250 Warhawk Recruiting
Chief Sergeant 2 500 Bandit Ground Combat
Wingman 5 000 Bandit Air to Air

How are there Fallen Star servers up? Is it out anywhere? I want those jetpack trophies!

edit: There's more every minute! All the official European servers have gone haywire too.

To celebrate Warhawk's first anniversary, I've put the finishing touches on my maps of the original five areas in Warhawk. :)

I've bundled up the GIMP, Photoshop, and jpeg exports here: http://rapidshare.com/files/140839960/Warhawk_Maps.rar.html

Here's a couple scaled down low quality previews:

Enjoy! Now I need to make lunch before I pass out. :X
 
For anyone with the new map, how large is it? While I enjoyed Vaporfield Glacier and Omega Factory, they were too damn big. I've thought the original five maps were the perfect size. Is Tau Crater gargantuan like the other DLC maps?

This is the first time I haven't immediately purchased Warhawk DLC. :(

This map feels really small to me! Right now I'm in a smaller layout, but I can still tell that the full sized map is quite tightly packed.

And it is very awesome, it doesn't feel like any of the others. The area surrounding the enormous structure (the ship) in the middle feels completely alien compared to anything else in the game.

Hey guys,

Does anyone arrange games or anything between GAF people?!

PSN - OmegaSpur

Add me / Clan me!
You haven't heard of the totally messed up initiation ritual? Are you sure you wanna join?

You have to fight Manky in the Rumble Dome while listening to the custom soundtrack of Sailormoon. Don't ask.

GAF is a fickle beast. There were GAF servers for about the first two weeks the game was new, and then they died off.

Take part in Warhawk Wednesdays! vgevo.com

Regularly scheduled Warhawk matches every week with familiar faces.

Jetpacks are even better than I imagined and the new map is gorgeous. The guys at Sony Santa Monica/Incognito are great for supporting the game like this.

Yeah, the jetpacks really make the game feel new. Adds SO much depth and dimension to an already pretty fucking deep game. I'm gonna be playing all night and all weekend.

Happy Birthday WowHawk!

Came out exactly one year ago this day. Amazing how much support Incognito is giving this baby. I hope a sequel never comes.

Every booster just keeps getting better and better. I love using the jetpacks. I love killing the jetpacks. The new map kicks ass. I have a terrible headache now. So very happy.
 
Are some of the official servers down or something? I REALLY want to get back into the game, but when I checked just now, I couldn't find any CTF-Large servers, only a few variations of the expert servers. Anyone know why?
