  • Man this is BS...I can't get First Sergant because of the stupid Basic Pistol Glitch.

    I have a little over 30,000 points and I was promoted 3 times. I just noticed that my rank is Master Sergant, I looked at Ubar and noticed that for First Sergant you need all the Basic Combat Badges. Well if you look at my stats you see that I DO have all basic even a couple of experts and veterans. Yet I cannot get First Sergant because when I got my Veteran Pistol Badge, I got it at the same time as my Basic Pistol Badge.

    This is how the glitch works:

    If you get, say, a Basic badge at the EXACT same time you get a Veteran Badge, you will never be credited for the basic. Meaning, it will never show that you got a Basic Badge even though you have a Veteran or Expert. If you look at stat sites you can see that I have Veteran and Expert Pistol but no Basic. I don't have it because of this glitch. The reason I was awarded both at the same time is because I had never gotten 7 skills with a pistol in one round UNTIL I had 50 GLobal Kills. Thus, when I got 7 kills, I was awarded both, but never credited for the BAsic Badge.

    Now I thought the patch may have fixed this so I started a new game and was awarded my Basic Pistol Badge (this isn't the first time it has been re-awarded to me) but of course it never showed on stat sites and I never ranked up. To this day I think I have been awarded the Basic Pistol Badge at least 20+ times because when I am awarded the badge, it never saves in my stats.

    So the question is, did they find a way to fix this? Will it ever be fixed or am I robbed from not only ranks, but from medals as well?

      Man, that's gotta be annoying. Try emailing BFHQ@eagames.com, they do the stats.

      Otherwise, the only other solution is a new account

        get your game manual and look up the contact number on the back. i'd be more than p'od if that happened to me!

          that's what you get for hanging around in knife & pistol servers, jk. How do you get veteran before basic pistol? That's gotta be hard to do?

            That's strange because I have the same thing with my vet knife badge, but I had no problem with the promotions.

              Its not hard at all, I had 50 global pistol kills long before I got 7 in one round, so I got my basic and veteran pistol at the same time. Though in game I recall it saying I was awarded both.

              I am still downloading the patch and I have 30,000 so time will tell if it happens to me, if so, meh, its not like you actually have to earn ranks and unlocks anymore with these pushover requirements

                Same thing here. I don't recall it saying that I got the basic badge at the same time as the veteran. I had the 50 global pistol kill and ended up getting 7 in one game and it told me that I got the veteran pistol badge...I hope this doesn't screw me down the road.
