Do you actually get unlock and rank points in multiplayer?

[FONS]

Hi, i've been looking for this and found nothin about.

 

i've purchased the sim a month ago and when flying with colleagues in multiplayer, the victories and exp. points seemed to not being added to our profile.

We were taking off, aerial victory, landing. It was counting on the server side, but when we got out of the server, we believe that wasn't being added to our profiles.

 

So is there any servers that give real exp. points and others not, or is it that mp doesn't give you real experience/unlock points?

 

Thanks in advance and sorry if this is around here, but i've been loking for this and found nothing.

No.

 

Plain and simple: No.

 

MP is completely locked off from the unlock system.

which is a shame because more people would of flown just for that to utilize the unlock system.

It would be nice if there was something developed around the points in multiplayer. I can see why the unlocks aren't included there because they're an incentive to buy the Premium Edition and if they were earnable online then someone would just create an "unlock fast" server with rows of trucks on the ground to strafe.

But it would be great of the points in MP went towards something like a leaderboard, achievements or logbook.

The horror of people being easily capable of accessing all the content in a game they paid for, can't have that.

 

Good to see devs cleverly manoeuvring themselves into positions like that.

Look at it this way

Rise of Flight has plane mods which you have to buy. They're another way of monetizing the game. What if it was possible to win all the plane mods online instead of buying them? That would defeat the whole purpose. And yes, someone would just create an "free mods" server with deliberately rigged missions just like they do for other games.

In BoS you have the flexibility to either buy the plane mods via the Premium Edition or you can choose to play for them in the game. It's your choice.

 

It would be great if players could win something playing online for get achievements or something. It can't be content that competes with the business model of selling the game. But just points and achievements would be fun.

Ok thank you all for the responses.

 

Personally, i see it ok. Otherwise people would take advantage of that. Friends letting being shot down, servers dedicated for that...

 

And about the fact of having to unlock things, i also see that cool, they are incentives to keep people wanting to master a plane, and forces you to dominate that plane before having it full equipped. I personally bought a Focke-wulf, and didn't want to use the feature of unlocking everything from start. I want to be a good pilot before having everything. 

 

But i agree, that would be cool a MP leatherboard, flight log, or achievements, "iLOVEwindmills" well said.
