Well yeah, kind of. Warhawk is a multiplayer only game, so you spend all of your time playing against other players.

Then as you play you earn points, which in turn make you “level up” in ranks. But Warhawk is a goddamn hard game, so you make 200 points per game (30 mins matches) when your team wins and a 100 when you are on the losing side (assuming you played really well).

It takes 275,000 points to get to general. You can do the math, lol xD

And yeah, I like games that are “hard” on the trophies but not time consuming. For instance, killzone 2 is a pain in the ass to plat but it never requires you to spend insane amounts of time doing anything.

I haven’t played Warhawk but having a game require you to invest 920 hours in it just to achieve part of a platinum is insane. In my opinion, it doesn’t really make it difficult to achieve… unless if the objectives in question are actually difficult, but it just seems like it’s a matter of investing a huge amount of time doing the same tasks over and over (which I assume this is what it is). I hate games that do that and I will never bother with these trophies no matter how much I love the game.

WipEout HD was difficult because it actually had some insane tasks to achieve. It doesn’t necessarily need you to quit your job and ditch any form of social life you may have to achieve but it is still hard. There’s no “eliminate 1,000,000 online opponents” of the sort, it’s just pure racing skills put to the most extreme tests. These are the challenges I enjoy in games.

Yeah, but the difficult part is beating the campaign on elite difficulty. Everything else is just a matter of putting some time on the task.

I still mantain that warhawk is the most difficult platinum trophie to obtain (which means to actually get, not like the ones some people mentioned that are “impossible” to obtain due to bad online implementation).

I mean, it took my brother some 920 hours just to get to general (I have about 600 hours, still pretty far from general) and not to mention all the medals you have to achieve.

You either just play warhawk ’till you get the platinum without ever looking at another games or just stopped playing the game at all.

BTW, I love this article =)
