When you become Hero,....

[BL4Z3>FAS>]

When you become Hero, you do get to choose your weapon load out right?
you wont be forced to take the enemy weps I assume?

Also is honor earned more from caps or kills?

You get more honour from capping definitely. You also get more points for kills within a cap zone.

Yes you get to select what weapon you want to use, but I believe the enemy weapon is selected by default.

Huh, weapon select isn't a hero feature At least I get to choose between mosin nagant and k98 in rifleman class and I'm nowhere near hero

The Manual :

From the Manual:

Scoring
There are multiple opportunities for you to score points. The most obvious way to score points is to kill enemies - or to assist, by wounding them. But there are additional, team-oriented, points as well - for capturing/defending Objectives resupplying machine-gunners and so on. Points scored are shown in the HUD, as well as in the After Action Report at the end of a match. All your points scored go towards increasing your Honor; kill points count towards Weapon XP all points count towards your Class XP. The scoreboard is also available at any time during a match.

Hope that helps

So if you are in the cap and killing you get more points.

Also, this might be an incredibly retarded question to ask but :

Do the points gained in a match (that go towards leveling up) are still gained even if you leave the game in the middle of a round?

Not sure so Im asking even tough I rarely leave a game before it's completly finished.

There's a manual?

I know,right. I can't remember who said it,Alan or Ramm, either way they didn't think there was interest in a manual. Well, speaking for myself, I like at least an explanation of the HUD and scoring system. I like to know what's beneficial and what's not.

For instance,what specific effects on my attributes does it have when when higher honored or heroes are around me? Yeah I see the arrows and such,but what are they doing for me or to me, and to those around me?

I've been close to Commanders that were killed and my character went into this heart pounding dulled hearing, greyed out tunnel vision mode for at least a minute. It was intense and immersive.

There are just some layers of this game that I think could be elaborated on in a bit more detail.

You do not get Enemy Loadout as Hero. I have Hero Assault and Hero Rifleman and I see no MBK/MP40 on my assault class (not thats id use those) and I get Kar98 on Rifleman but thats a Veteran unlock.

Afaik, Enemy Loadout is not in the game.
