Jetpacks Revealed in Warhawk Trophies

by Patrick Steen on August 6, 2008 at 3:52 pm

That’s right, Warhawk is getting trophies. Oh, you knew that? Well it’s getting much more than that. The next downloadable pack will bring jetpacks.

On the 27th August, Warhawk will be patched up to v1.5, not only bringing 56 trophies but also tutorials to train new players and the ability to create custom soundtracks.

The trophies are an amalgamation of original accomplishments, where some will be retroactively rewarded. These contain trophies to encourage participating in the community, those specific to certain game modes, vehicle trophies, and weapon trophies. There’ll also be a collection for each map pack, including the third untitled and unannounced pack (white feather?). Here’s a small selection of what to expect:

Secret Daredevil – Get 100 feet off the ground in a ground vehicle. Does not count if the vehicle is being carried by a Dropship.
Invincible -- While on foot, take at least 250 damage within 10 seconds without dying.
Porcupine – Destroy an enemy Warhawk with the APC’s E-POD shield.
Taxi Driver – Help a teammate capture the flag (in CTF) or cogs (in Collection) by transporting him back to the base, using any vehicle.

The full selection can be found at this link.  Many of the specific trophies are unconfirmed, but some have already been mentioned by Sony. We have little doubt that such a lengthy and detailed list is accurate – who would have the time to make it up?

If you’re particularly savvy, you should notice descriptions referring to jetpacks, wearable by individual players who can still use their weapons mid-flight:

Aerial Ballet – While flying a jetpack, kill an enemy (who is also flying a jetpack) with any weapon other than the Rocket Launcher.
Are You Aim-Botting? — Snipe an enemy who is flying a jetpack.
That Was Some Bug – Kill an enemy who is flying a jetpack by hitting him with any vehicle or aircraft.

There is also mention of a new map, called Tau Crater, which will feature a “salvage crane.” Don’t tell anyone, but we expect the pack to release close to the release of the patch. The game that never stops giving will give us a whole lot more on August 27th.  Scratch the date into your Warhawk, soldiers.
