    Re: The General Ranks...

    So if I get in 1250 hours playtime before hitting 180,000 I should be able to skip the 1 star and get the two star.

    Of all the 3 stars the top 50 each month gets 4 stars? In other words the crappy 3 stars never see 4 right?

      If you meet all the requirements for 2-star, when you reach 180,000 points you will be promoted to 1-star, & then you make your next kill you will be promoted to 2-star

      That's how I got mine, both in the same round (& both w/ the knife LOL)

        well
        as usual ( and it is NO One's fault but EA- why we the community have to deduce it ?????????????)
        everyone guessed wrong about how to get 4 stars

        there were 32 4-stars, and now just a 36 of them
        if top 50 3-stars were to get it
        we should have 82 of them !?!?!?!

        ps
        son worked his butt off to get into top 50 3-stars
        made it to #48
        oh well - at least he is still having fun !

          Allow me to explain, you EARN your 4th star @ 800,000 points, no 1 has done that yet, the 32 4 star generals were temporarily AWARDED the 4th star

          So 50 + 32 is not correct

          As to why there are not 50 4 star generals, I don't know, but I believe it is just as EA said, the top 50 scoring 3 star generals each month will get to wear the 4th star, I think what happened was that last month there weren't 50 generals to give 4 stars to

              800,000 POINTS!? THAT's JUST so.. LIKE 5 years of gameplay for a casual gamer like me.

              FORGET IT.

                Any of the big ranks or six-figure scores are "forget it" for people who have to earn a living, IMO.

                    So what if you don't meet the requirements for Brigadier General, but you do meet the requirements for Major General? Or do you have to meet both sets of requirements to get Major General?

                        I hope the ranks in BF 2142 arent as trivial.

                            Thanks. That's just silly though, players who don't enjoy piloting or driving are kinda screwed. Not that I am anywhere close to those ranks, but kinda depressing knowing I'd have to learn how to fly and do it even though it's not fun for me

                              After you get proficient @ flying, I would like to hear your opinion on how much fun flying is then, as it may have changed

                                Well I may have to force myself to like it, but in all the fps games I've ever played, I always come back to general grunting. It's the most challenging and fun thing for me.
