Award Criteria...

[TriggerHappy2005]

It states in the 1.3 change-log that the award criteria has been changed. Anyone know what's been changed?

Re: Award Criteria...

I can confirm the expert knife part at least. A clan mate just logged in to a server and got expert knife without killing anyone.

Oh well, at least the date on my expert knife shows I earned it!

Was this after you installed 1.3? Or have you even installed it..

Re: Award Criteria...

So far it appears the knife and the combat infantry/marksman infantry medals have been confirmed. I'd place good money on the rest of the changes being true too.

Also, notice the lack of no Veteran Armor badge change -_- not everybody's a lame-ass karkand whore ya know (I'm a recovering one, addicted to Kubra, Wake, and Mash now).

EDIT: You'll need 1.3 installed. The appearance of the badge, the drumroll, and all that require the client files knowing when to show it. Say you have 99 knife kills. You log into a server and your game knows you need one more kill for expert knife. You knife osmeone, your game notices this, and plays the drumroll+shows the badge.

Re: Award Criteria...

You only need vet badges in infantry, as well as vehicles

They are just giving away General like it is water:|:
