lets hope some ranks will be hard to achieve. and not that everybody is max rank in a few months/weeks

Well, looking at some of the stats on the pages in the video:

At 1:05, the difference between rank 6 and 7 is shown to be 500,000 points.
At 1:38, a players score per minute is listed as 643.
So 500,000/643 = 777.6 minutes = 12.9 hours

That player will take about 13 hours to get from rank 5 to 6.

So, if we assume BF3 as 50 ranks like BC2, and the point requirements are exponentially increased between each rank.....
Should a fair while to get to the highest rank.

Of course, I'm assuming that:
1) Those are the actual point requirements, and not just placeholders
2) There are 50 ranks and
3) A 643 SPM is average
So take it with a pinch of salt.

At 1:37 you see a guy thats rank 12 and only needs 500 points for the next rank.
But maybe thats a different type of rank than the overall one. Who knows....

1643 score per minute?

God I hate all these high numbers, it pisses me off.  How about  +1 assist, +5 kill, + 10 objective capture, +2 supply, heal, revive

Why do we need ONE HUNDRED points for one kill? Why are minimum earnings in the double digits? pffff

They're just numbers shifty, that's all they are. It's not the size of the number that matters.................

I dont really care whether i get 100 or 2 for a kill, but i get shifty's problem.
Reason why they do it like this in all FPS these days is because 100 points feels a lot more rewarding to the FPS-players (the CoD generation) than 2. It feels a lot more like youve achieved something when you see a big flaming 52978 pop in you screen rather than a small +2.It probably keeps a lot of the simple FPS-players (once more, CoD generation) playing when they know that the reward looks greater

Good to see you tackling the big issues.

i think that they should give 10 or 20 points for a kill, single points are never used if you give 100 for a kill

they should give more points for killing a guy that is running than a guy that is a bit further away and stationary.

and it will probably be:

kill +100
Avenger +20
Revenge +25
Reloading +5
2 kill streak +2
Saviour +20

total +172

that was only for snipers in aix though right?

and my post was about that i dont want all those ridiculous bonuses. i agree with extra for rage head shots etc. but not extra points because the other guy is reloading etc
