Secretive New Warhawk Content Details

Warhawk remains as one of the most supported PS3 games after its initial release
If a *leaked* trophy list over at GameFAQs is to be believed, we have some pretty exciting content coming our way in the next few weeks. My understanding is that in addition to the v1.5 patch coming on August 27, 2008 (which includes trophy support and in-game custom soundtracks), there will be a new expansion pack ($$) available for download soon after.
The free updates to the game will include:
- Trophy support
- Custom soundtracks
- New game mode: Training (includes Vehicle Combat Training, Ground Combat Training, and Warhawk Combat Training)
The new expansion pack ($$) will include:
- New Map: Tau Crater
- New Vehicle: Jet Pack (probably for exclusive use in the Tau Crater expansion)
This is pretty exciting, game-changing stuff. Stay tuned as I’m sure we’ll hear from Dylan Jobe soon!

i guess the jet pack would make sense when looking at the one jet pack trophy.
August 6th, 2008 at 6:55 PM
There are more than one jet pack trophies… but yes, this should be cool. Ever since they’ve been calling DLC “Booster Packs” I’ve wished that booster packs would be in one of the booster packs.

Tau Crater…..makes it sound like its near a volcano or something….or some crash site…..
August 6th, 2008 at 7:02 PM
i hope they do a broken mirror and tau crater combo cos i have omega dawn

SS,
When are you going to help me get better at this game?
August 6th, 2008 at 7:06 PM
Haha, when can you sit down for about 5 days? I was a beta tester and loved when everyone got the game how much I could whoop up. I used to play alot with ICEMAN101 or whatever. Now that guy’s on the top of the leaderboards and has played several thousand hours!
There’s no keeping up with some of these guys.
Chris, hopefully the new training modes will help you out. You do get a trophy for completing each of them after all.
August 6th, 2008 at 7:08 PM
lol to the training modes I go

@ chris
i got this game at launch and i still cant get the hang of it lol
its pretty hard i might get past the 4th rank with them now
i always stop playing cos i get new games

we don’t need to get the expansion pack trophies to get the platinum trophy do we? Because that woul;d be rather unfair on the people who can’t afford the expansion packs.
August 6th, 2008 at 8:18 PM
If you wanna be as good as those guys, (rank wise) you gotta give up your life, I believe you stop enjoying these games when you are so dedicated to the rank. I play for fun.

@Indie
Yes you do. Unfortunately, I guess its a prize for those that support them to the end.

@ Indie_Hitman & KnaveX
Actually you do not. Dylan Jobe has said that you do NOT need the booster trophies to obtain the Platinum.
August 6th, 2008 at 8:30 PM
“Warhawk Supreme Achievement — All your base trophies are belong to platinum.”
which would require
“Behind Enemy Lines — Drive an APC into the enemy’s home base, then have at least one teammate spawn into that APC.”
APC which comes in a booster pack.

@Pheonix
Cool, thanks. Plus, I hope that is a legitimate list as I’ve been waiting for these trophies and have been careful with my accuracy and K/d ratio in case there was a trophy for getting high standard in those. Guess not which means I can just throw myself in there more and have fun.
Ps: Is it me, or are half of these trophies awarded on other players skills as opposed to your own. Ie. Get killes by proximity mines 5 times.

@ KnaveX
It is possible that Trophies have a hidden attribute that makes them not count toward Platinum. DLC causes problems when it comes to Platinums unless you do not count them toward the game.
Say for instance I have all the Trophies for a game (and the Platinum) then DLC is released… What happens to my Platinum? Do I keep it? Do I lose it? The smartest and most likely solution is to simply not count DLC Trophies toward a Platinum.
Dylan Jobe specifically said as such in the 1.4 post on the PS.Blog.
‘To earn the Warhawk Platinum Trophy, all you have to do is unlock the base game’s 44 Trophies…you do *NOT* have to buy any DLC to unlock the Platinum Warhawk Trophy. Forcing players to buy our DLC would be super-craptastic and completely unacceptable.’

ive had this game just about since it came out, and the only thing im actually REALLY good at is sniping lol
August 6th, 2008 at 9:41 PM
@phoenix
cool i understand, i recall seeing that on the blog so thats why i found it weird, but this is why i love incognito.
August 6th, 2008 at 9:42 PM
dang trophies look hard
August 6th, 2008 at 10:00 PM
ooh. Jetpacks sound awesome!
August 6th, 2008 at 10:08 PM
Cool a training simulator map just what i need to learn the game better.
August 6th, 2008 at 11:35 PM
some of them dooo look hard indeed.. thats okay
August 7th, 2008 at 2:14 AM
Im surprised not many people bought this game, i believe only 200k. This game is frigging awesome and im probably going to get a download able content once i get some PSN cards.

Kotaku contacted SCEA and have confirmed the list to be accurate.

Sounds great. Warhawk will be a year old soon and it just keeps getting better. If any of you out there don’t have this game you need to go get it.If only all games had the support of a developer like incognito.
August 7th, 2008 at 11:24 AM
@victor, Warhawk has sold about 500k according to vgchartz estimates and the number of ranked players (although some of those are duplicates) and incognito has gone on record to say that warhawk has made more profit than anything else on the psn store. Warhawk is my favorite ps3 game, period. It deserves to sell one million and give those hard working guys at incognito rewards for sticking with their community of players.
August 7th, 2008 at 12:18 PM
Awesome, I can’t wait. I own both expansions, bring on the Tropies, In-Game Music, and new Expansion. Count me in.
