    The truth behind all of these "random" unlocks...

    Well, what a wonderful few days it has been. Since EA didn't take the time to respond (or maybe even read) our emails about various stats-server security holes, it clearly showed us how much they care. Therefore, we came to the conclusion that modifying 5 million accounts wouldn't be that big of a deal.

    That being said, accounts with ids from 40,000,000 to 45,000,000 now have all of their weapons unlocked.

    What will be next week? Perhaps we'll give everyone their Distinguished Service Medal, or maybe we'll elevate everyone to the rank of Sergeant Major.

    The ball's in your court, EA. Time's up at the buzzer, how well will you play?

    ...

    Well, that explains why I woke up to having everything unlocked.

    And here I thought I was special.

    Gee.

    Oh well, thanks for the unlocks anyway. It's gonna be hell for EA to fix this though...

          It doesn't look like he's joking- my weapons were unlocked and my ID is within the range he gave.

                        go to bf2s.com and search for stats for your name, in the sig box it will have your id, i dunno if there is a easier way but thats the way i do it, and I do fall in the range.

                          Myself...I wouldn't like to have players able to choose whatever weapon they like...but moreso that this could represent some critical flaws with EA that go beyond just simple weapon unlocks....

                          Possibly Account theft, fake ranks/stats/medals etc..

                          I think you get the ideal
