It has only been a month since the 1.4 update which added 2 new game modes. Well now Director Dylan Jobe has posted all the juicy details for it's next big update v1.5.
So what will we be seeing on the battlefield and more importantly when will we be seeing it?
Ingame Music (through the XMB), Trophies, Tutorials, New Paint Schemes and Insignias and the lucky few that participated in the GGL Tournament will get an exclusive Katana Blade.
More info below.
Custom In-Game Music
This feature was asked for by a bazillion players! Now players can use the XMB music player to play their own custom music. Warhawk will also detect if you are using the XMB player and automatically disable the in-game Warhawk music. Convenience for the win!
XMB Trophies
I have talked about this several times before so this is by no means new-news…especially with the recent leak of our full trophy list – gotta love the internets. BTW, the team and I are really flattered that someone would risk their job to leak confidential info about our game — Makes us feel good in a weird kinda way.
Anyhoo….
There are 56 trophies included in the Warhawk v1.5 Update. These also include trophies for the booster packs, some of the trophies are, or rather *were*, hidden and some are retroactive based on your server-side stats. Here are just a few of the trophies that are included.
Training Tutorials
The new v1.5 Update includes 4 very simple tutorials that can be played off-line. Each one focuses on the core principals of each of the 3 modes of gameplay: Infantry, Ground Vehicles and Aircraft. Now these tutorials are very, very simple and It wouldn’t surprise me if some of our more hardcore players find them way too pedestrian. But we’re looking to help the *new* player, a player that may not be that familiar with Warhawk or the shooter genre. These tutorials are an invaluable help to a newbie!!!
After completing each of the 3 core tutorials a trophy is unlocked – a nice incentive for new players and, well…all you avid Warhawk players can think of them as “easy-money”.
News Story attached to:
it seems as though sony is the only developer doing ANYTHING with the 2.40 update....only 3 or 4 games that support it is bullshit, all Sony 1st Party titles NEED to have these features. sony needs to get on 3rd party's asses and get their gears in motion, Infinity Ward isnt working on anything new, really only CoD6, THEY CAN MAKE AN UPDATE FOR AT LEAST *bleep*ING RUMBLE! jesus christ.
I still don't fully understand this trophies thing. Do we unlock them by getting medals? And we have already unlocked stuff, do we automaticaly get the trophies?
