What do the weapon stars mean?

TomasRiker · 20-03-2010, 11:19 AM

The stars you can get by using a weapon for a long time and killing many enemies -- are they more than just an "award"? Do they make your weapon better in some way?

Moquaii · 20-03-2010, 11:20 AM

no they dont

It's like it's own leveling system in a way. Someone with 3x Gold Star with a knife is a really good knifer

I don't think it's possible to have x3 Bronze or Silver. You get Platinum sometime after Gold, but I don't know how.

after 10 gold stars you will get a platinum :-P

the more gold stars you get for the 40mm grenade, the more of a noob you are i have read(red? or somat)

It shows how skilled you are with a certain weapon.

Or how much of a noob you are if you're using the noob-tube or M60.

Oh, and Scopey, it was me who said that a few weeks ago.

I heard a rumor that you get an noobstar(50k points) after you get platinum star with noobtube, noob60 and noob gustav

I have 8 gold stars for the 40MM grenade launcher and 6 gold stars for the M416. I only ever play as Assault and always with this weapon.

If that makes me a noob, so be it.

It will make you a noob in their eyes, because you killed 800+ people with it

(blasting them away through walls and tubing them f2f is the same for them)

If you have 6 stars with the M416, then no.

For gadgets, you get gold stars slightly faster. I got my platinum at around 400 kills with the 40mm, and before somebody calls me noob, I got a platinum with the abakan and the m416 also...

danredda · 20-03-2010, 11:59 AM

Gadgets only require around 50 kills for gold stars, and normal guns around 100 (i think by looking at how my stars are ranking up)

Each stars give you certain amount of ranking points. It is a way to make your soldier rank higher faster.
