Great news

Thanks, marciosmg. I'm already well acquainted with that website! I had so many question after playing it for the first few hours. That site helped explain a lot of things that I probably wouldn't have understood until many more hours into the game.

The bonuses you get from clearing certain things and the scenarios are one time only, so you'll need to do some of the little things in order to get the rest of the points to get the rest of the things bought.

Thanks. I did a few others and got my 23rd plat!!!!!

There will be a pretty big boost in this week's update. Well, unless you all also trophy whore'd

@kyliedog i finally got bfbc2 hurray and online is great now they've shortened the maps :)
those online trophys you mention will be a nightmare but is it me or is most people really bad online lol? can spot the veterans a mile off.

@hideok watch out im determined to add your dog tags to my collection :P

Yay, FFXIII just got delivered... now if only I didn't have work to do...

@mattbfg
Funny, I was thinking the same thing about getting your dog tag first!! And then you'll never get mine!!!
I'm just going to spin round and round in circles so it will be impossible for you to sneak up on me for a knife kill. Then I gun you down instead. haha

So far I've got about 5 or 6 knife kills. 3 of them were in a row. for those I snuck behind 3 people who were camping and sniping and I took them out one by one within 10 seconds. It was so rewarding to get them all without any of them spotting me. I hate campers.

And so far I've only given up my dog tag once while I was disarming a bomb. Then again I've only played 3 matches online. Did finish up the single player last night so I expect to be online tonight. I'll be gunning for you mattbfg... even if another guy is right in front of me and your far off in the distance

Yeah that game really slowed me down with tropies as well.  Now though it's more the end game trophies I'm working on.  Only have 6 of the 14 weapons trophies and having a hard time getting some of the stones I need, since I still have at least another play through and a half I'm not that conserned though. 

it took me 120 hours, but it was 120 hours well spent, man i love that game, good luck with the plat ^_^, and try not to break your controller your second playthrough ^_^

I haven't spent much time yet reading up on those weapon trophies and what it takes to fully upgrade a weapon of each type. My understanding is that there are two generic upgrade paths: one using the Sharpstones, and one using Hardstones. Each time you upgrade with either of these stones, your weapon gets a +1, and will max out at +10. But there are other stones as well, like Clearstones for example. How does upgrading with these work? Do you have to upgrade a weapon to a certain level using the sharpstones and hardstones before branching out to these specific upgrade paths? If so, what't the difference between using sharpstones and hardstones as the base?
