Perk Issues

[Drakthor]

I just have to say right off, the game is great issues aside such as multiplayer connection issues.

I am experiencing problems with my perks, I don't know if anyone else is having the same issues I am having. My Field Medic perk is stuck at 187/200 at level 0 and doesn't seem to be able to be advanced any further. Also, my Support Specialist perk seems to be going up for the shotgun damage counter yet I have not used a shotgun yet in the game, I'm not sure if the rifle counts as a shotgun or what because that is the only other weapon I have used besides the Bullpup, Crossbow, and a few melee weapons.

Thanks in advance for replies.

I also have this problem. My field medic perk is just stuck and wont budge.

Would be great if this is sorted asap as its a real deterrent All my friends who I was playing with for 3 hours last night were also suffering from the issue on different perks.

 

[Zetsumei]

can one of you maybe try if it does update when playing offline, and simply doesnt work when playing online?

Ill try myself otherwise in a bit.

I have this issue as well - my Field Medic seems stuck at 0 over the course of several maps and about one quarter of my head shots don't register in game. I marked this up to just hitting shoulders and necks with the Rifle at first, but after using the 9mm to take off multiple Clot heads in a single shot I tested it out in Solo and they all registered PERFECTLY. There seems to be an issue with the Perk counters reading the stats or something. The technical stuff is totally beyond my know-how but there's definitely an issue with online play and Perk progress, although aside from that the game has been flawless for me so far.

I tried using it offline, but it didn't seem to do anything. I'm not sure if this is because you actually need to use the med syringe on other players to get progress, or if it is still just frozen.

AFAIK only desert eagle (handcannon),lever rifle and crossbow headshots count towards the sharpshooter perk, so i would be worried if it works with your 9mm pistol...

(based on the ingame description)

I am also having this problem with my medic perk. I somehow got it to level 1 while playing on the Farm map, but it has since been stuck on 321/750 and it won't change no matter how many people I heal.

I believe when I heal others in co-op mode, it is being counted as if I was healing myself. I suspect this because I received the "Self Medicator" achievement immediately after I healed someone else, and I'm quite sure that I haven't played the game long enough to actually heal myself 100 times.

I noticed this as well. I healed an entire team on Normal from start to finish and my perk stayed at 4980/12,000 the entire game.

In fact, during one section, all I DID was heal. 0 damage and 0 kills just to see if anything would change on my heal meter.

Then I joined 2-3 other games after that and my stats STILL didn't increase.

Though my Berserker Perk leveled to 2 in each game. Over and Over again. And this was while being a Field Medic without melee'ing.

Medic: My heals were stuck at 0 for the first day of KF, but since then it seems to not have bugged again, I'm at level 3 Medic.
Support: Everything seems to work properly, although shotty progress seems to bec counted by using LAW.
Sharpshooter: It seems like some headshots dont register, but whatever.
Commando: Everything seems fine.
Zerker: Everything seems fine.
Firebug: Everything seems fine.

I was playing the other day and all of the sudden NONE of my perks are getting ANY progress.

 

[Stixsmaster]

mayb you should make sure you dont play on maps that are not white listed...that could be the problem there...

[Elspuddy]

hi the sperks just stoped working on my server, it was like first it was working then not, the map was doom 2 final, any idears ?

 

[Stixsmaster]

when posting a map post the entire rom name for example it should be for the Doom 2 Final, KF-Doom2-Final.rom, now is it that?

---Stixsmaster

 

[driftwood]

does it matter which doom2 version it was? Even the most recent probably isn't properly white listed yet. I heard that even though a map is approved for white listing, that it takes some time to properly take effect.

Lets give it a few weeks before whining about perks not advancing on custom maps, PLEASE.

When the Official Map White List thread is updated, then those maps, with only those names specified, should be immediately available for Perk Progression. Please keep an eye on that thread to know what maps are currently White Listed.

Would it be possible to have whitelisted maps hosted on Steam, or incorporate the download links to the whitelisted maps?
This would reduce the confusion about which downloadable maps are whitelisted and which are not quite a bit.

We are actually working on this very thing. For now, this area has the majority of maps that have been added to the White List.

Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you! Now I can reinstall and download all the maps again! ^__^

Are these all whitelisted or are there any non-whitelisted ones on the list?

[EDIT]
Went trough the files that were available for download and checked the whitelisted list against the map list available for download. Here's the result. Sorry about the wall of text.
