Higher Rank Requirements (i.e. First Sgt)

[Sploitz]

So I was just looking at the rank requirements... y'know, the 150,000 points and further up. Then I saw those asterisks next to the higher ones, like First Sgt, and Sgt Major, and I scrolled down to check the requirements.

*Requirements for First Sergeant:
· Basic Knife
· Basic Pistol
· Basic Assault
· Basic Anti-Tank
· Basic Sniper
· Basic Spec Ops
· Basic Support
· Basic Engineer
· Basic Medic

**Requirements for Sergeant Major:
· Basic Armor
· Basic Transport
· Basic Helicopter
· Basic Aviator
· Basic Air Defense
· Basic Ground Defense

So, my question is, why would they make these huge ranks, in which you have to spend freakishly massive amounts of time playing this game, if the requirements are these piddly little badges? If you're a freakin First Sgt, I would HOPE that you've gotten 5 kills in one round with each of the classes... and spent 10 minutes in each type of vehicle.

You'd be surprised.

heh sploitz so true. That's one of the places they need to make requirements a bit higher really.

Perhaps lower time requirement for the veteran combat badges to 100/150 hours and you need them for first sergeant.

Same for sergeant major.

LOWERS?!
u want no badge requirments?

anyway they should lower the times thats what is the most important.

6,000 hours is ridicolous. I dont think anybody played any game that long

EA isnt going to lower the requirements, as they dont see anything wrong with them.
