General
ISA Ultimate Recruit is a training programme to help you get ready for the release of Killzone 3. It's designed to be a fun experience that you and your friends can get involved in and potentially win some great prizes.
There are two main stages to training:
Theory missions, designed to hone your knowledge of the Helghast and skills in reconnaissance.
Practical training on the Live Fire Range, where you will be able to fire a real Helghast weapon over the internet.
In order to earn a place on the Live Fire Range you'll need to:
- Be amongst the first 500 recruits to complete all 4 theory missions
- Collect at least 10 Helghast Symbols.
The two ISA Ultimate Recruits who gain the highest score on the Live Fire Range will win a VIP trip to E3. You can also win other prizes based on your achievements in the missions.
Make sure you follow Instructor McCain on Twitter to keep up to date with all the latest training developments, hints and tips.

Collecting Symbols
The best way to collect symbols is using your mobile phone (UK players only). If you didn't register your mobile when you signed-up then click on your Account to add it. You can also submit symbols via email.
Here's how:
- Locate a symbol online or in the press.
- Take a photo of the symbol on your phone or camera. Make sure that the photo is not blurry, is taken straight-on and includes the whole symbol.
- There are two ways to submit a symbol.
- - Mobile: make sure you have registered your mobile then send the symbol by MMS (picture message) to 62364.
- - Email: attach your photo to an email and send it from your registered address to symbols@killzone.com
- Once you have submitted a symbol you will receive a confirmation SMS or Email to let you know you've successfully collected it (be sure to check your spam/junk folder if using email).
Your achievements profile will update shortly. Keep an eye on it but don't worry, it may take a little while at busy times.

Missions
There are 4 theory training missions to complete and the briefings will be released during the week of February 14th. The final mission is timed and you need to be one of the first 500 to complete it in order to earn a place on the Live Fire Range, so make sure you're available at 2pm on Sunday 20th February.
You will receive your mission briefings from Drill Instructor McCain right here on the game hub. The theory missions will require you to use the internet, your phone, occasionally a printer and most importantly your wits, in order to find information and report back to the ISA.
Some missions will automatically track your progress, other missions will require you to submit information to us.
All missions can be completed to differing levels, depending on how much information you manage to uncover. In order to pass a mission you have to achieve a bronze badge, but if you really want to prove your skills there are silver and gold levels to be found. Those who go beyond the call of duty will be rewarded well.
Make sure you complete all the missions and uncover as much information as possible to increase your chances of winning prizes along the way.
