Every once in a while I get a bronze star for something. Anyone know what they're awarded for?

They are gun-specific "awards".  Kill x amount of people with the gun to get the bronze star.  Keep using it and eventually you'll earn the silver, and then the gold.  After that it just adds additional gold stars.

Oh, and it also gives you a fair amount of points when you earn one.

I hate how the awards give you points. I hope BF3 is more like BF2. No points for awards and ranks take forever to get.

No matter how much you want this, it simply won't happen.

People like ranking up, getting unlocks, medals, pins, whatever. The more shinies given out, the more likely people will want to pursue them. If something is too hard to achieve, people whine. See the commander ribbon from BF2.

EA would lose money if they made ranks similar to those in BF2.

Am I the only one who likes getting points for the awards? It gives you something as a reward other than shiny pixels in your profile. Even more incentive to work for it.

It's not lame. It's just too bad they just can't make a new game like the old games.

A game that is practically like it's predecessor just with a new engine does not exactly appease me.

How can you not be sick of a 5 year old game? BC2 is a helluva lot better balanced than that game EVER was.

Mods help a lot with BF2. I get tired of regular BF2 so I play Point of Existence 2, AIX, etc. Then I go back to regular BF2. Repeat.. And just because it's 5 years old doesn't mean you have to be sick of it. I still go back to play SNES, N64, and Gamecube games... Hell, I still play Age of Empires 1 and 2 regularly.. Now I love BC2, but it hasn't had the same effect as BF2 had on me.

My God you children. BF2 was WAY more balanced than BC2 is. Especially vehicles. Example ? Choppers.

BC2 was balanced with consoles in mind. Example ? The knifing system.

yeah I know, sorry I maybe didn't get your point. I'm just saying, expert armour is a bigger pain in the arse to get than war college. So's expert repair for that matter. But anyway...

THANK YOU.  I completely agree.  But, to be fair BF2 has been out five years so they had A LOT of time to tweak it.

Vehicles were way overpowered in BF2, especially air vehicles. No one should be able to go 19-1 without breaking a sweat just because they chose to fly.

Wrong. The teams are unbalanced. If a decent pilot chooses to fly, if there's decent anti-air (Another chopper, a jet, someone who knows how to use AA) then they're not going to get 19-1. Positive K : D? Yes. Excessive? No.

Going 19-1 in bf2 is not special with or without vehicles.
