about ranks

hmmm since im almost First Sergeant....hmm
Every weekday i play at least three hours which is three games at most and each game gives 200-400(depending on the mode) exp. So on the weekdays total i can get 3, 000exp Sat and Sunday i can play at least 6 hours or more so thats 2400 exp and each week is a total of 5400expand if i round my exp it would be like 4,000? and to get General rank i need like.... 72,500-4,000= 68,000/5400 it would take 12.59259 weeks......-.- thats frikken four months.......Great! >_>

would be cool to give General rank some nice abilities, something to work up to from LT COL

it takes enough time to get up to there... if you reach such a rank, you'll want to go for "hell runs" and help people more than trying to unlock stuff...

i unlocked artillery not long ago.... but i haven't looked forward to unlocking anything more since i had my combat knife... while true that there was't any battlefield control before beta 6 and that it helps a lot, it merely helps doing what higher leveled players do: help his friends up and get together a team that can work together as best as they can to get through the biggest challenge: hell

maybe it would take you 4 months to get to 72 000 xp, it would take you 2 months to get to 36 000, the rank that gives you every single abilities in the game....

it would take you a month to have 18 000, the rank where you have most of the abilities that you will use....

it took me 6 months of dedicated playing to get to 999 999xp in DOTD 5.2f.... the maximum xp that can be saved... there is only one problem: finishing the game was still painfully hard! i bet i need less than my fingers to count the number of times i finished it.... but each and every time i finished it was a job i was proud of! a job that made me work hard towards it!

If you're content for finishing th normal mode, its all good.... if you're content after finishing nightmare, great for you.... if you ever finish hell, i can bet you're proud of yourself for your hard work because you know for yourself that you had to try many times and you had to do your best!

wow 4 months to get to 72 000 xp ?? play dotd much ? it took me nearly a year just to get to 55 000 xp


+oh

In a month, I've managed to get to Captain with 24,100xp points. Hopefully, I will hit General and unlock the uber cool stuff that s3rius has planned for the future.

can u pretty plz add unlocks on col , BG and Lt Col in beta 7 ?

heh i should just go for hell every single day and screw Nightmare and Normal..would that help tho?

Not really, because you wouldn't get far with most people being dlers, most likely you'd die before the first mission is accomplished.

played WoW for 4 years with multiple 80s so im perfectly capable of general on DOTD hehe

the fact is: i get more xp out of a normal run than most nightmare runs... and hell gives me the least xp... why?
because we die all the time on hell, i get about 200 xp because we get wiped too early...
and the survival rate of nightmare with 3-4 good players is very low... so you get more xp, but you die too often, making most runs to give you less xp than a normal run...

well thats totally opposite of me >_> i get more exp on harder ones because i die trying to save noobs from dieing on Normal

wats wow got to do with dotd ? lol

on hell, the team is basically like a WOW party... damage dealers, healers, tank and support characters...

damage dealers:
Machine gunner, Rifleman, Sniper

Healers:
Medics

Tanks: Firebats

Support:
Scout for slowing and removing armor from enemies/bosses
Demoman to do his damaging moves and use explosives as traps
Engineer to get ammo and refill secondary guns while guetting more mana regen for everyone while he can also net enemies
Marksman can be here... while he's a damage dealer, he can stun the boss and light up areas...
Assaultman is.. weird... he can do mad damage in enemies in a line, but he has a net and a smoke.... he is more like an attack firebat on steroids that has to reload all the time...

did i miss a class?

D:

wohoo dotd is turning into WoW!

mwahaha

Welkl, teamplay is something that WoW for sure did not invent.
