Field Upgrades

I feel like this has been answered before, but I couldn't find it. What determines what you can unlock via field upgrades? Is it just the next 2 items up the tree?

Correct. Just the next 2 items. And certain items cant be gotten. Extra sprint, SL unlocks etc.

Re: Field Upgrades

One item up the tree from what you have unlocked.. So two items from each kit. I get the SL unlocks regardless of whether I'm SL or not. The personal upgrades do have a space on that screen, so I wonder if you can only get them when you have everything else unlocked?

Re: Field Upgrades

Well, I think you can only unlock the Frags for the personal upgrades, beyond that you can't choose the sprint upgrades (that's where I am).

Ahh. I used my "free" unlock from the BF2 vet status on the grenades, even before I played my first round.

Re: Field Upgrades

Ah, I grabbed RDX with my vet upgrade. And by the way, this may sound stupid, but where's the interface for adding details to posts like emoticons, italics, and such? I know, stupid question, but seriously, what am I missing?

When you do "Quote >>" or "New Reply" you get a more advanced editing interface.. That's where all the pretty little pictures are.

Can change the font too! <- My favorite

Re: Field Upgrades

Also - I think there's a setting under Options in your User Control Panel that lets you select whether you have a standard or basic messaging interface.... the basic one might not give you the formatting options.

Re: Field Upgrades

You can unlock the global upgrades. I have the first 3 and the picture I see on the field upgrades is a square with a lock in it. But I can choose it and get the extra rounds for my pistol.

Re: Field Upgrades

On the bottom of this page is a box labeled "Posting Rules". The links in there will show you the vb code for Smilies and various things.

I've been allowed to select them even with the lock icon there. At least, it counts my field upgrade as used up. I suspect it only doesn't work since it's meant to activate at the beginning of the battle, according to the description.

Maybe it kicks in in the next round, but I've never been bothered enough to check that out.

I highly suggest sprint and stamina upgrades, they are worth spending the points on.
