CaptainHavok Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 Level 60 with each faction...that alone will take MANY hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siquall Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 Level 60 with each faction...that alone will take MANY hours. Lv 60 with all factions is nothiing... But get all medals and all ribons ? Wtf ? 2000 h for get a platinum, if you're lucky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLittleChef Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 I don't get how you can vote on this, even though people won't have even tried for most of the trophies.... The polls should be open about a month after release date in my opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swaveman Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 True, but you can do an initial poll to guage how people view it now and then restart it in a few weeks, once people have started dedicating more time to getting the trophies and there is a better understanding of exactly what is involved in achieving some of them.

Linkinito Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 It's a definitive 10 for me. Some ribbons and medals will be very, very, very hard to achieve. Many trophies are time consuming. Also, if the game loses of its players throughout the months, the game will be unplayable on some modes like Domination and the Platinum can never be achieved.

karimkz Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 hmmm probably a 9 cuz i only earned 5 ribbons in 1 day... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mee-Gell Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 its going to be mad hard, some of the ribbons ask for too much. i havent voted because i dont vote until i get the plat. but its going to be a whilllle if i get it. theres just isnt enough time in the level to get the requirements for ribbons easily. you have to go so far out of way to get some and then you find yourself playing a match for the ribbons instead of the win and then your team losses because you spend most of your time doing other crap to get ribbons. there should be more objective based ribbons like taking the letter objectives in domination and stuff IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swaveman Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 I agree. I haven't even thought about getting some of the ribbons and probably won't because it takes me out of the realm of my game. I like reviving/healing/helping teammates and taking objectives. That is name of the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wub4 Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 (edited) I agree. I haven't even thought about getting some of the ribbons and probably won't because it takes me out of the realm of my game. I like reviving/healing/helping teammates and taking objectives. That is name of the game. *signed* . I love to run around healing others, repairing stuff and taking objectives. I even ended on first place in my platoon once with just 5 kills . Ribbons like "30 kills with gun x" or "streaker" are pretty much impossible to get this way. I tried going for kills instead of doing objectives a few times, but even then i didn't get those ribbons (at least 1 kill per minute with just one gun, that's insane in these vast maps....). So, i'd have to play dozens of games in a way i don't like just to get the plat. Don't like that idea. A few of those ribbons you need to get really make this a difficulty 10. I'm pretty sure i can say this being lvl 28 now. Edited February 1, 2010 by Wub^4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Execta Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 Oh Jesus, and I just remembered that you can't even boost these medals. Oh damn, this game will be really hard to platinum. Whatever, I'll do it. It's still not impossible, like games as Warhawk (and it's just a boring game so I don't even want to play it). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThisIsWar Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 2. Don't rate a game unless you've put some time into it. 3. Remember, time consuming does not always equal difficult. "Warhawk" is time consuming and difficult. "Resistance 2" is time consuming, but not difficult at all. ... Just saying.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jjos Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 Platinum isn't that hard after all. In average I earn around 1000 XP per hour (actually I played around 38 hours and are at around 39000 XP (which is level 48)). So reaching level 60 won't take that long if you have fun playing this game and having good friends playing with you. Also the ribbons aren't that hard if you are going for them in special. I mean, sure, it's nearly impossible to earn a ribbon like "repair 3 AA guns" or "repair 3 mortars" while playing with SVER - cause they have the best maps for defense and when playing good the attackers won't get behind the bunkers. But with Raven for example (that's also the faction I started with) it's pretty easy since your defense mostly will be overran pretty fast. Just try to get to the thing you want to repair as often as possible - and you will have these ribbons after a few matches. Got problems with the killing x enemies in one match with weapon y? There is also a simple solution. Improve your skill (okay, easy spoken, I know). Or just try to skill the weapon, use it as often as possible and - as most important point - get the silencer for this weapon, if one is available. As long as you concentrate on the ribbons you want to earn you will get them pretty fast. And the medals in the end are even easier then the ribbons since they only need endurance. Sure, you maybe don't get 100 great victories or 100 victories as defender while playing Raven - but since there is this veteran mode allowing you to switch the faction without loosing your stats you will get these after joining SVER for example. Also you need to play all 3 factions for platinum - so everything will come over time. This game deserves a solid 6 for platinum - Time consuming? Yes. Endurance needed? Yes. But the difficulty isn't that high - at least for players with average to good skills. On the other side I wouldn't suggest this game to beginners for which it could be a hard 10.

So reaching level 60 won't take that long if you have fun playing this game and having good friends playing with you. The only people I know earning EXP that slow are people who AREN'T in clan (X). A friend of mine is earning on average 700 - 1200 exp per game and leveled from 58 to 60 in an hour. Another member of his clan has already reached 60, played 60 for a few days, then switched to Raven and is over level 25. There's nothing hard about this game. At all. The only truely time consuming trophy is getting all the ribbons, since a few can only be achieved once or twice a game and make you do them 500 - 1000 times. To make the online play difficulty curve fair, this is a 5 or a 6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hahahahaha do you think that be the 1st MVP (player with best score) on 25 matches is easy? that medal ruined my platinum, other ones are only time consuming, but this one... i'm not a very good player.

Jjos Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 The ribbons aren't the hardest about this game. As long as you concentrate on doing them they go pretty fast. The only two ribbons which need some kind of "luck" are the ribbons for the AA guns (destroy and repair 3 ones in one match) since you mostly will see just one AA gun per match. The easiest are level 60 - followed by all ribbons - to the hardest being the medals (mostly just endurance - mostly). For all having problems being best (second/third) player of the platoon: Try doing as much as possible near the target set by the squadleader - this doubles the XP. Destroying enemy things ike mortar, sensor, doors, bunkers and so on are also great ways to earn XP. And if everything fails, pull out your medic setup. Playing the medic earns you pretty much XP and can be done also by players not so good (I saw a people on sabotage with 3/27 kills - but being the best player on our side by just healing and reviving friends near the target).

Exactly. They aren't that hard, they just take a long time. Getting exp isn't much of a problem, you don't have to be very good. Like Jjos said, just go to where your platoon leaders set the frago and you get double exp for everything you do, Make sure you have improved resussitation and once you get to the higher levels you can raise your life total to 120, which is helpful. Just use teamwork and the exp rolls right in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poetic_justice_ Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 you have to go so far out of way to get some and then you find yourself playing a match for the ribbons instead of the win and then your team losses because you spend most of your time doing other crap to get ribbons. Yeah, this is one of the things that will kill this game. On the RAVEN thread, Raul_Atraides wrote about how his own squad leader shot him in the back so he could get a "bunker buster" ribbon. The requirements are too *&@% much! If we could respawn faster (like MW2) and respawn on our teammates, maybe, MAYBE we could get the 30 or 35 kills IAR with certain weapons. These developers fell in love with the legend of their own game, but it is turning out to be a myth. Less than a month after its release, you can buy a used copy of MAG for $35-$40 online. It takes around 5-7 minutes to load a Domination game. Unless Zipper Interactive changes the trophy requirements and finds a way to cut down queue loading/respawning time so we can actually PLAY THE GAME INSTEAD OF WAITING, MAG will not last. Oh, and to all you SVER guys, I fart in your general direction. Your mother was a hamster, and your father smelled of elderberries! Ha! there should be more objective based ribbons like taking the letter objectives in domination and stuff IMO Yes, a "Take the Alphabet" trophy or something like that. It should also adjust so that you don't have to have a full 128 vs. 128 to start a game. The waiting is so monotonous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PerfectMurder Posted February 7, 2010 Share Posted February 7, 2010 MAG is both time consuming and difficult. Getting all medals is the hardest trophy by far. Only one person from your side of 128 to 64 players can blow up one of four possible AAAs that are available and once one of those are down, they probably wont get back up.

Lilgherkin Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 I'm really busting my hump trying to get the trophies, which means I'm trying to bust my hump getting all these ribbons. They are really hard to get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Excstazy Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 Will take a few months to play imo, but the game is awesome and as long as ppl keep playing its very possible to do. A few ribbons will be hard, but you should be able to get most of them just by playing (while having them in mind tho). I would say its a 9, altho i have to play more before voting.

evilmittens Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 Lets say I get to 60 on my Valor character and delete him and start a new one. Do my stats from teh Valor character roll over to the new guy (meaning some of the lifetime kill medals etc are tracked over any characters) or are they deleted and all stats reset. I know the new character has to be refought through all the levels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
