Maybe this has already been found out, but i just wanted to say that the kill statistics for RETRIEVER is messed up. You have to do 200 kills to upgrade it, i currently have played exclusively with this perk from level 10 to 26, and the statistic says i only got 150/200 kills, obviously this is not correct. Thus it will take ages to upgrade it to the max level.
Also, some of my friends confirm this. Please fix Crytek. )

yes, you are very right! it's not updating the amount of kills i actually got with this perk!

Sme happened with me. I havent got very many kills with it, but it's stuck at zero for me.

mine is fine so far. i have like 265 kills and i can't wait for the secound upgrade i want to know what it does!

lucky you! )
killstreaks last longer with 2nd upgrade

U need to cash in your kills by using the kill streaks that's how it raises the number her to ur assessments it took me to the end to if d this out

so if i kill 2 people and die, those 2 kill will not count, and then i kill 3 people & call in a uav then those 3 kills will go towards the statistic? are u sure about that?

Cause i honestly think that's not the case, i've called killstreaks millions of times, that would definitely be more than 150 kills i currently have

I'm pretty certain that it is the amount of kills you get when your kill streak are up. So get 3 kills and radar is up, get 2 kills for orbital strike, use it and get 1 kill, get 1 more kill and use your ceph gun ship that kills 3 people, then you die. This would get you 7 kills towards retriever. If you were to die right after you called in your gun ship and it got 3 kills I don't think those count towards retriever.

I made a topic on this a few days ago explaining the "typo" that was in the module's description.....

It's not kills but the number of support actions you earned......

So let's say you got upto a 7 dogtag support option in one game (Full Armor/Ceph Airstrike)........that's 3 "kills" right there.

Also there is a bug related to retriever in that you don't have to equip it to level it up. Apparently any support actions used via a different power module used other than retriever will up the count.

I think the bug is right. I'ma terrible sniper, and can't aim, so I got no bonuses while I had it equiped. But then I got some radars in other games,and those were added to the skill assesment for it. That's very useful though! That's one bug I hope they don't take out when (if) they patch it.

It doesnt register the killls for the retriever...

Its registers and only counts kill streaks each will count as one towards to amount required which is 200 first. (i assume they pretty much always get activated unless you got a k/s on the last kill, bit of a grind but i think its worth it for sure)

200 kill streaks needed for upgrade 2... be it 200 radars or whatever... not a hard job as you collect the tags automaticaly obv...

I saw that a patch came out today and I wanted to know what it was because my retriever perk was reset .

Just had the same thing done to my account. Absolute shenanigans.

So it wasn't enough that the counter only worked half the time and it took me twice as long to upgrade it but now they reset it for no reason.

****

Thanks I was just making sure other people were having the same issue.

apparently the 3mb update fixed the retriever to count your kills, so I guess it needed to be reset.

Oh well i didn't use it anyway...

I did! I already had it upgraded

YA man that happened to me too!!!!!!!!. i was fifty kills from lvl 3

IM PIST!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol

I did find it strange that I was getting Retriever kills for the upgrade without even having Retriever equipped. No idea why that was happening, though it seemed to happen a lot when using Air Stomp. Did it have something to do with that?

Yes mine completely reset.

Can someone tell me why I had retriever II yesturday and today I see that I only have 15 kills towards it. It was bad enough that thee game lied to me and it was 200 called in support and not kills. My friend who didn't have it, but had progress towards it also got his stats erased. Wtf crytek?

I had it maxed out on lvl 3 and it reset, made me rage, i'm gonna sell this game while its still worth something and before reviews come out.

Yeah, I'm in the same situation. I had lvl 3 and it is now at the beginning. One thing I noticed is that it is now counting individual kills, not killstreak rewards.... I wonder if this happened to everyone's retriever module.
