Could be they implemented more ranks but kept the unlocks at the same needed points - or lowered it but then not giving unlocks for each rank (You don't get unlock for Private First Class now...)??

So ->
Private - starting rank
Private First Class - 500pts - no unlock
Lance Coproral - 1.000pts - 1st unlock
Corporal - 2.500pts - no unlock
Sergeant - 5.000pts - 2nd unlock
Staff Sergeant - 7.500pts - no unlock
Gunnery Sergeant - 10.000pts - 3rd unlock
Master Sergeant - 15.000pts - no unlock
First Sergeant - automatic with basic badges
Master Gunnery Sergeant - 20.000pts - 4th unlock
Sergeant Major - automatic with veteran badges
2nd Leutenant - 50.000pts - 5th unlock
1st Leutenant - 75.000pts
Captain - 150.000pts - 6th unlock
Major - 250.000pts - 7th unlock
Colonel - Automatic with expert badges

Actually sounds like a decent plan . But must admit, i played on a server yesterday where the lowest rank (besides me and i'm a lance corp) was a staff sergent. Highest was master sergent i think, those guys where evil. So it shows that ranks = good players.

how could you have been playing with all master sergeants?  As far as i know at this point the highest out there were the gunnery and maybe one first sgt that got promoted last night.

Ok. I've seen alot of bickering about the ranks and medals. But i've noticed something that is quite... strange.

I was checking the scores of the highest ranking players (weee, i bathe in precense of their glory... or something ). The number 1 german player (boothi or something) has the navy seal cross. Sweet deal for him. Now here's the funny part

Navy seal cross = 4500h to get (or 4500 hours of gaming time as i understand it)

The player has... a total of 641 hours (400 something as US)... sooooo... what happened to the last 4000!!! hours???

Can someone plz explain that to me, cause all of a sudden it seams "easy" to get some of the medals :S

Are you that 10 year old admin who kicks players when they kill you? Poor little child.

Please do some searching, the medal reqs have changed just as the ranks (aparently) have changed.

Yup, he kicked and banned me one time, because when I logged in I took commander, and apparently he wanted to be commander instead.  I remember that name, quite well.  Pissed me off too.

Ive had 2 other mod's kick/ban me too, because I took commander when they wanted it.  Hasnt anyone ever heard of oh - I dont know - asking?

Hopefully i'll get promoted some rank(s) with 3600+ points. I think Corporal, but maybe also Sergeant or at least some hundreds to it.
