Resistance 2 Patch 1.40 Details
Resistance 2 is expected to be updated just like Fall of Man was to improve the online experience. From Monday 26 Jan 09, patch 1.40 will be available for download. The patch will address the following:
Multiplayer Progression
Some people have seen their competitive and/or cooperative characters reset to level 1. For several of those cases, this patch will not only bring back all the XP, stats, and attributes that you’ve lost, but it will also add to your character profile the XP/stats/attributes that you’ve earned since those levels were reset. For example, say you were a level 20 medic and after being reset to level 1, and you earned 5,000 XP. Thanks to the patch, you’ll return a level 20 medic and that 5,000 XP will be added to your profile.
This patch will also correct some medal and trophy issues, including the “Killing Machine” trophy (if you’ve already accumulated 10,000 kills but haven’t received this trophy, it’ll pop up as soon as you download the patch).
And here are additional 1.40 details:
- “Salute Me” trophy is not awarded until player reaches level 31 (Lieutenant)
- “Berserker” trophy can be collected during non-ranked games
- “Survivor” medal can be collected in cooperative games
- “Sure Shot” ribbon is awarded if player has accuracy of exactly 50%
- Added clan support for viewing members, sending invites, and setting up clan tags
- Default clan region is now USA
- Unbalanced ranked games are cancelled in staging before the game is started
- Parties are prevented from matchmaking into free-for-all Deathmatch games
- Loadouts can be disabled in the “Create Game” screen in competitive games
- Balanced the chance of dropping large ammo pickups in competitive games
- Core Control scoreboard displays “Kills”
- Improved scoreboard formatting
- Balanced the amount of XP gained by the Medic class in cooperative games
- Stalker movement enabled in cooperative games
- Small ammo pickups don’t give LAARK ammo in cooperative games

- Rossmore reticule better reflects its accuracy
- Fire is easier to shake off

- Localized text updates
- Network message optimizations

There you have it, the nice big list of fixes/additions.

I have played coop. mode for a while. But when I reached level 30 as a soldier, i stopped getting any xp. I am playing by myself and in a ranked game. How do I fix this or is this a common problem? Anyone Help!
That’s because level 30 is the highest level avaliable per class in co op.
