There are a couple of threads on the playstion.com Warhawk forums about this problem, so you are not the only one. But no Dev. has chimed in yet on a solution/fix.

The bug seems to take effect at 28 clan members. here is the link Even though 64 members is the max.

I counted them up and we have 28. Thanks Jafo for the infor.

Warhawk update from Dylan Jobe

While monitoring the stats situation over the weekend we were largely pleased with the results. The vast majority of you were having proper stats registered on the server. That said, as of Monday, we are now seeing some players NOT getting their stats again. A smaller portion for sure, but there's still a problem.

We had meetings with the team here and in San Diego today to discuss the list of issues and data gathered thus far, just to keep the info flowing to the community, here's what we're investigating as hot items:

* Stats Issues -- Some players are *still* experiencing stats not tracking. Some players have also experienced your ranks being "reset" or, at least that's what appears to be happening. In fact, ranks are not being reset but rather, the connection is being lost to the stats DB and thus the game can't validate what rank you really are. So please don't be alarmed. You didn't just lose all your hard fought points and medals. Upon the next clean log-in you should be fine.

* Join Problems -- Sometimes I swear, getting into a big game in the join list is like a mini-game...and a frustrating mini-game at that. We are well aware of this and have people working on it. There are many times that the game shows that it has open slots but will reject your connection...just to continue to show there ARE free slots. A further problem is that players are informed of the game being full only after a long period to attempting to connect...*weak* (read weak like AWESOM-O)

Now we know there are other issues out there, and many of you have made some great suggestions but we feel strongly that these primary issues need to be addressed before we start looking at enhancements.

We're still cranking on these issues and will post another update soon.

Do you think you can get a screen capture of the error message? If you can, post it in the above link to the playstation.com Warhawk forums, it would prolly help the Devs figure out just what is wrong.

[Weez_Dawg]

The problems I hate are:

Sometimes ranked server says "16/24 people" but when I try to go in it says "Server full" or "Cannot connect"

Ranked matches, stats are not saved(everyone has this problem).

People talking racist or stupid or cursing for no reason. I ran into this problem alot on the 360 but I didn't expect it to be just as bad on the PS3. BF2 on the computer people act mature in my 2 years of playing that game.

Other than these 3, 2 of which can be fixed, I LOVE this game!!!!!

[Weez_Dawg]

Hopefully I can be part of the blu clan soon(don't know acctual clan name). I will be checking alot for a invite, I just hope the warhawk people fix there stuff.

You will in all due time. I read somewhere else and they do know about it.

The clan is Blu-ray and BLU is our tag.

Man, I've demo'd this game to a few people now and they just want to keep comin over to play. 3 of them are seriously considering purchasing a PS3 for this game alone.

I hope they add some more weapons and vehicles. I would like to see some dirtbikes!

[Dadds]

I hope they at least fix it. I just need this to hold me over to COD4.

I second the bikes. Maybe with a fat M.gun on each side.

And for kicks, I'd love to see some have the sidecar.

How about Helicopters?

Dune-buggy?

How about smoke grenades? (Colored ones would be cool too)

Hummers?

Other tanks (faster, less armor, more armor, bigger, slower, etc)?

I've been getting so owned. I'm bought to fire up some Golden Eye on N64 just to make myself feel better

[Shin-Ra]

Just don't shoot Dr Doak in the face or he won't be able to finish HAZE in time for us.

[cartier]

A question... if they do add more weapons either for ground or air combat what method would be used to select them? As it stands now there are 8 "boxes" to store the various types of weapons and I believe they are all used.

[Dadds]

Well you would be able to carry only one of that type of weapon.

Ex. If there are 2 different pistals you would have to drop one when you pick the other type up.

Don't let me near a Warhawk. I can't even kill a regular soldier. He has time to make soup from scratch, go to the nearest store and buy a rocket launcher, and hit me a couple times to kill me.

I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. I'm hitting stuff, but nothing dies.

And how many hours must I hit a jeep for before it blows up. Geez.

On the ground I do okay.

I'm like you... Can't kill a thing on the ground with the Warhawk but Air to Air I simply dominate with it, no question. I can't believe it myself actually, but Air to Air seems to be my gig.

I'm average at best in ground combat... probably less than average.

Either way, I'm about done with this game now. The constant bugs and lack of dependable stats and, as such, customization options, etc., has completely turned me off. I just can't get into it so I'll probably just be putting it away for awhile now until it's totally fixed or I'm exceptionally bored.

Im pretty much with you. It seems like it is still in BETA form. The clan error has really made me mad over the past few days. And now last night I played COD4 on 360 and one word: WOW. It will be the best FPS made to date.

I was wondering about this the other day, and when I could not get online (network timeout) I started a LAN game. It took about 8 hits from the standard missile to blow up a jeep and either 2 or 3 of the more powerful missiles.

When going after a soldier on the ground make sure he is pre-occupied. That way if he switches to a rocket launcher he will be killed by the guy chasing him with a gun. In all reality he won't switch over if he is taking fire from other ground based units.
