we got GPA in queensland, but it's only for uni... as the other dude said "grade point average". in QLD it's between 1 and 7, seven being best. maybe it's different in usa, but i wouldn't think 4's that crash hot...i got 5.3 or sumptin in an engineering degree and i sank enough piss to kill a small civilisation.Cold Fussion wrote:

WTF is GPA? if its a measure of common sense then everyone who has taken it must have none.

that's pretty impressive! can't say i know of anyone better. well either he's really good or he plays against small children. after he breaks their fingers.
yeah - comparing two people of the same bracket it would obviously be score, because they are of the same rank, so that then means nothing...gene_pool wrote:
Well, I said score. Two people could be, say, first seargent. But one could have just got the rank and the day before, was a gunnery sgt. The other person though, could be 1000 more points away to the next rank (which I have forgot atm). Thats my reasoning.
i reckon it's a bit of both hey, but leaning toward the badges. and what sarrk said - minus the time requirements. you can counteract those ones though, if you look at their SPM. if someone's got an SPM of like 0.89 then there's a fair chance that they do sit around in a tank without doing too much else, but if they've been getting badges while still doing at least some stuff then that's cool. then you can use k/d ratio to see if they have any skill at actually encountering enemies...
i think it goes to show that you can't really use any one stat in isolation.... a *TRULY* balanced player would have a decent k/d, a decent SPM, some badges (to show the skill required in meeting IAR requirements) and all this would result in a fairly decent total score, depending on the player's total time.

yeah when i first saw this thread i'm like "yeah fuckin' A repair packs would be cool" but after reading [QXJZ]Capt_Kefra's post just above mine it really drove home a point - you're right man, it would make it crazy - the armor would be unbeatable. and i like your solution - more points for repairing the same shit, repairing at the same rate and all that jazz, just more points. i like it.
well congrats anyway. all's fair in love and war, or something. i just got my veteran engineers (my last vet badge to get) and now i have a lengthy wait till i rack up 100hrs on something (probably spec ops first, that's always been my fav kit). 40 kills looks like a daunting task. when just firing one shot at a time the spec ops with the G36C can play a fair decent sniper as well. i've a few kills by running up onto to a roof for a bit, but it's better than sniper cos you can then run back down and cut sick. wake with few people is an insane map to get massive scores on. i accidentally got 181 on wake one day - i'm not particularly sure how i did it, cept that the game went for freakin' ages! i think i got three of four ribbons/badges that round...
nice. good info on the sniper. i'm not the best sniper, so i can't add any of my own wisdom, but that all seems to make sense.
bit bit tho is the chuck norris call. how funny are those random facts about chuck norris/mr t/vin diesel??? i even here they have ones on the hoff these days too....hahhahhahaha

yeah shit hey. i ran into a hack the other day. i was going for my knife badge, running down the main street of karkand right in the middle so i could see anyone, and there's a dude on the gun placement stationary defence thing, facing me, shooting at me, and i fucken died. and in the same game, i was in an apc driving along, and an enemy engineer put a mine in front of me, and i drove over it, and i died. fuck that for a joke.

If you don't want a gunner in your plane, do you ask them to bail out? If a pilot wants me out of his plane enough to ask me to leave, I'll parachute out immediately. There's no point being an unwanted gunner. A good pilot can line up targets for the gunner. An unhappy pilot will be flying like a damned maniac, and the gunner will have little chance of hitting anything.
If the pilot doesn't want a gunner, and says so, I'm outta his aircraft pronto.

yeah love it. quite a few times i've had the knife out someone's pulled a knife out and went me. i'm happy to die to dudes like that. obviously there are a thousand who slaughter me, and probably nearly as many who fall to my blade (how cool is it to say that ) but yeah, still haven't got expert. i think the biggest hurdle was basic, vet came reaaaally easy after that. i need global kills wit my pistol these days however - so if i find someone who hasn't seen me - i'll run up behind him and smack a pistol clip into the back of the head. more dangerous than knifing him, but i needs tha kills...
congrats dude! i'll drop you another post when i get mine

i live on the south west side, i work at the airforce base south west outta the city, and my wife works in the city, so we went half way in between. where did you study? i did 4 yrs engineering at Queensland University of Technology, my wife 4 yrs engineering at University of Queensland. yeah tresuary rocks! i'm still $30 up on the bastardstthf wrote:
which part of brizzy do you live?
i used to study there for 3 years.
stayed at orleigh st, west end (near the city cat)
loved the place, beautiful weather and great people.
oh, the treasury was fun too!
someone before said who cares if someone tk's someone else for a chopper or something... MAN! that's fucked! this is a community game where you play with other people. people who compare stats out of context and do stupid in-game shit are annoying, but to fucking team kill?? that's actively reducing the fun for the person in question! that's selfishness beyond reason! jaesqewt or whatever i think said "oh yeah i like to TK, so stfu". man, can anyone get more fucked up that that? malicious, actively ruining the experience for their peers!
and kniero - stop being so self-obsessed. "it's (lmao - almost) worse that not a single person made a meaningful response to my first reply (page 4) in this thread"
yeah man - probably cos no one gives a fuck...get over yourself! and don't whinge if no one wants to take you on in a big word battle.
i'm 22, i'm married, i'm an engineer, i love hitting the piss, i live in brisbane, australia, i'm not brilliant at bf2, but have all the basic awards, a few veterans and a kd of 0.99 (fucking 1.0 - it's elusive!). BUT I PLAY THIS GAME FOR FUN, AND TRY MY HARDEST NOT TO RUIN IT FOR OTHER PEOPLE! now you can write me off without making any assumptions.

yeah this post is now like 6 pages...shit
anywayz, the reason i liked this game (this is my first ever online game) is that it's one battle at a time, and generally if you've played more, it doesn't necessarily mean you're a better player. in RPG style games and Dungeons and Dragons kinda shit (and i'm not writing this off either, i like that stuff but for a different reason..), it's mostly (to my knowledge) based on how long you've been playing for, and how many levels you've progressed and stuff. the only thing to say a player would be better if they've played for more in this is the unlockable weapons.
so there's no reason some dude with quick reflexes and good with a mouse and who is good at these kinda games wont go out and buy it and be a private, and kick everyones asses. or some 2nd luitenant give his grandma a go, or (as i like to do sometimes ) play after a big night out on the piss before passing out - what a laugh! hahaha. fun.
if i find myself getting owned a lot i'll go dang that was unlucky to be artied, and then bombed just as i spawn, and then spawn in front of somebodies knife or some shit, i don't shit myself cos i know my stats are going to show a few deaths!
it's FUN!

Although I do wonder how you get a best kill-streak of 118!
hahaha i looked at one of those above dudes' stats, and it said to get the next medal would take 36 days (or 260:54:31 hrs straight). some simple maths revealed that this dude spends on average, according to BF2S stats, 33% of each day playing bf2. that's 8 hrs a freakin' day! and to have all those medals he's kept it up for a while! WOAH!
