Nanosuit Reboot? Have a word with yourselves, Crytek!

Post » Fri Mar 13, 2009 7:23 pm

I badly want to reboot, but ever since I learned that rebooting will get your stats erased, I have refrained from doing so. I hope CryTek fixes this right away, as I want to extend my multi-player experience.

On a side note, Stealth Enhance III isn't needed to be a more efficient killer, at least in my experience. I'm a 3 k/d player and I use Tracker III lol :p

It's how you got the 3 kd which matters more, very very easy to get on objective game types. My 2.8 KD is legit through IA and TIA, I have played 113 IA's and more 78. Some of the loses were due to the BS host migrations and horrendous lag, some of them were due to having low level modules until level 20+. I rarely lose now against anybody.

Stealth Enhance III is needed if you like not been seen and recharging all the time.

Rebooting won't reset all your stats. It resets thre Service Record stats as you would expect, but you will keep your XP so still keep your world rank. Shame they delete kills which seems pointless. I was 26th im the world before rebooting, now I'm level 47 again so would probably be in the top ten in the world, taking into accounting that some of the highest killers may be boosters.

And there are a lot of boosters. Almost everyone in the Top 40 for XP are boosters, there is no possible way that they have all rebooted 5 times in 3 weeks. I play all the time and only almost rebooted twice.

I mostly play IA and TIA, so yeah my 3+ k/d is "legit", according to your definition. I use Tracker III, meaning I go around the whole level stalking people. If I do use Stealth Enhance III, I use it in conjunction with Energy Transfer III: kill someone, slip into stealth right away. But I found that method less...exciting (for lack of a better word).

Anyway, I really want to reboot my suit. I've always liked the grind associated with having to start from scratch all over. Sure it's not for everybody, but I gain enjoyment that way. I hope this gets patched soon.

Thanks to all who posted on this topic.... I for one will NOT be rebooting. I'm at level 28 now, and STILL get my ass handed to me on a plate every time I play. I really am trying to get better, but it's all about the fun. Can anyone inform me what BOOSTING is all about?... Is that why I keep getting dead?
Regards.

I had no idea Rebooting existed ! It's sounds like the thing for me , IF the Leaderboards stats issue is worked upon.

I for one enjoy competing and comparing stats with my friends, I dont define my existence by them , but they encourage competitiveness between myself and the people I play with.

I had no idea CELL skins were unlocked either, that might be something that would sweeten the deal for me ...

An earlier point like this was made, but theyre effectively treating the people that play their game like many other companies would treat boosters.

And good job on responding to the community with this one Crytek, nice to see the people are heard.

I haven't rebooted yet but the idea of doing so if off-putting. I did it in Transformers: War for Cybertron only because they had rank-based achievements and they held weekends where the xp is boosted regularly. Plus levelling up is easier there. There's no incentive to reboot at all. I may have been tempted if I got the Nanosuit skin from SP
