Can someone please elaborate on offline profiles and how to rank them? I want to have a separate, local account with all (or at least most) armor. Also, what happens if I were to bring such a profile online?
Well, you can either have a local profile and play it locally and everything you do will be worth more credits, or, you can find out how to mod a local profile to have all armor and max credits. If you take the offline profile online, you'll just start making less credits. If you take the modded profile online, you'll be banned.
how to rank them = credits earned offline are earned by time spent in game. more time, more credits. thats it.
I thought you lost credits if you brought the profile online for the first time...? It resets you to like 250,000cR? Also, About how long would it take to get everything (or almost)?
I'm pretty sure this is what I heard, also. Either cR are converted to online cR... or there's a cap to how many cR an offline profile can bring to an online one.
When you are offline you earn all credits at about 10x the rate, but only get it for play time. When you take an offline profile online, the system checks how many credits you have earned. If you have more than 26,500 then it will lower the credits down to that cap. It also includes the value of any armor you have purchased while offline, and if your total value of armor AND credits exceeds that, it will start re-locking the armor you have purchased until your complete worth is at 26,500. Which is super lame because I have earned more credits than that in one game before -_-
