    they say the ranks will be changed....

    in the gossip about the leaked patch info, they mention thet some criteria for reaching ranks and stuff will be adapted, wich criteria should they adapt acording to you ?

    -the ranks shouldn't be changed for me, I like it when it's hard to get, and I don't want it to be to easy and everyone running around with highest rank, also I don't care if I never reach the highest rank, I am gld with 3 or 4 unlocks over the whole period of playing.

    - the medals, I think everyone will agree that those criteria must be changed, as it is now, it's just impossible to get some medals, unless you play for 5years long 8 hours a day or something.

    - ribbons are fine I thinkm just that war college ribbon looks impossible (50h commander, 3/1 K/D ratio

    - the badges, I have isues with those freaking badges, the Basic ones are very easy, but the expert ones or veteran are like crap criterea. and most of it is the time criteria, I think 100 hours should be veteran and 250 expert (plus the needed kills in a round) for the different classes badges.

    then some other badges, some are realy stupid
    for example the

    - driver badge : need 100 h and 2000 driver points (plus 5 runover in a round)
    I have already more then 1000 driver points but only 13 hours , why don't they just use 2000 driver points and time isn't a isue??

    - for the chopper veteran badge you need 100 hours, for the aviator badge you need 500 hours ?????????

    - for every badge like resuplie, heal, repair, you need 500 hours playing the dam class, this is way to much

    - the tow missile badge or stinger badge, I use those thing a lot in the game, but most it's just jump , use , leave, so you never stay long at those things, but you need to spend 200h in them for the veteran badge ?? time is to long.

    this is only about the veteran badges, not the expert ones, I think they must change those criteria more to global kills then global time, or use less time.

    all the ribbons are easy to get, i got them all within 400 hours of play which was fine. just that the badges take too long, i think they should be on kills / teamwork points for that class instead of hours...

    and the medals should be a lot shorter methinks...

      Re: they say the ranks will be changed....

      I was thinking about the rank comment. I'm wondering if they are pointing that aspect at people like me. I have several account just to get unlocks easier. Starting from scratch, I can make lcp in 8 hours of casual play, faster if I play medic. The only weapons I have not unlocked are the jackhammer and the m95. I wonder if they are going to make it harder for us to do this.

      Or they might spread it out more up top, to thin down the upper ranks. I've seen a few E-7s floating around on the stat boards, people are almost done with the ranks and the game has only been out three months. Although, now that school has started up for the kinders, it might slow down some.

      But all in all, I don't really care. I've gotten all the unlocks I wanted to play with. In my view I've done everything that I possible could already, changing the rank scheme isn't going to matter to me that much, since my multiple accounts are already nearing corporal on most.

      I never intended to make the final rank. I'll play with the new map for about a week before I get presumably bored with that, and continue waiting for a decent mod to spawn my way.

      Awards I really don't care about, because they don't alter the game in anyway. Nothing changes once you get them, so why bother?

        I think unlocks should be based on how much u play the class, and I also agree with you they should give you soemthing for awards

          Yeah the medals need to be brought down a bit. Every 1000hrs is 250 days, 4 hours each day. Some of the medals need 3k hours of play time. thats just rediculous. Battlefield 3 will be out by then. Ribbons I'm okay with, i have all but 4, and 3 of them require at least 250 hours of play time. Ranks i dont care about, but I think they should make it so you get 2 unlocks at sargeant and above so we can have all the weapons sooner. I hate thinking about how the game contains more things to experience that i'm missing out on, and there is nothing i can do about it.

            I would say corporal. Although the idea of playing a class for _X_ amount of hours has merit as well.

              I think the reason they put in hourly requirements was to make point farming less of an issue.

                I have no issue on Ranks. The issue I have is with Veteran/Expert badges and medals. Those need to be toned down.
