How long will it take you guys to update the UBAR section with the new requirements for ranks,medals,ribbons and badges ?

Well, I was thinking of letting it sit for a few months.

Seriously though, duh. How about once I get the new data. Perhaps that won't happen till the patch is actually out. Remember, none of this is Official data (hence the U in UBAR), so I have to snipe this info from other places and various sources.

It'd be nice if they did release it officially...  seems to me kind of silly and sadistic not to...  without resources like this (thanks guys), you'd keep trying and trying for some medal, thinking you're not getting it because of a bug, or because of some obscure requirement, pulling your hair out trying to figure it out because they have some severe hour-played requirements to meet first (1,500 hours for expert aircraft...  that's more than 4h a day in a jet on BF2 every day for a year).

Perhaps they don't want you to collect medals, but earn them "on the fly" as bonus for good play... not just for the trophy??

Or you wouldn't even know they existed so it wouldn't really matter ;P

I imagine that, yes, the intent was to keep the medal reqs a secret and just have them pop up once in a while and people go, "oh hey, neat. I guess there is something cool for spending my entire life in a jet...yay, I can die happy now"

Well how is it you found out the requirements for before the patch? You must know of someway using the files or what not to find it out now.

Unless someone from EA or DICE told you them. Which I doubt.

I don't know if you want this or not, guys. But This is what info I got on the new ranking system. Seems pretty legit, to me.
Private - Start to 100 GP
Private First Class -100GP - 250GP
Lance Corporal - 250GP - 500GP
Sergeant - 500GP - 3,500GP
Staff Sergeant - 3,500GP - 10,000GP
Gunnery Sergeant - 10,000GP - 15,000GP
Master Sergeant - 15,000GP - 25,000GP
First Sergeant - 25,000GP & Basic Knife, Pistol, Assault, Anti-tank, Sniper, Spec Ops, Support, Engineer, Medic Badges
Master Gunnery Sergreant - ??? (They still say 25,000GP) Have to check more into this.
Sergreant Major - 25,000GP - 50,000GP
Sergeant Major of the Crops. - 50,000GP - 75,000GP & All Basic Bagdes. Only awarded to one person per month.

Ummm I don't know weather or not to believe the last few. It seems like they just started pulling numbers out their ass after about the First Sergeant rank.
Did they change the requiremtns to get awards too? I'm still busy trying to DL the patch. I just got home.

lol so instead of being stuck at LC - youll be stuck at Ssgt for what seems for many to be an eternity... then we will have a lot of Gunnery and Master Sergeants....

Whatever. 

I should have tried harder to get my Corporal rank last night.  I guess I could still if I dont update my patch so my stats say the right thing - take a SS and keep a good memory of it haha.

Current Rank Sergeant
Next Rank Staff Sergeant
Global Score 4777

Player Name Ravlen
Player ID 11910565
Current Rank Staff Sergeant

Odds are Staff Sergeant is ~5000-5500+

Whoops. Looks to me like you are right. Must of missed up somewhere.
Eh, oh well. You get the general idea. I wasn't expecting anyone to actually update the UBAR with that stuff anyways.
We will all find out soon enough anyways..... I hope.

I had around 35,300, and I went from Sergeant, to SSgt, to GySgt, and finally Master Sergeant. I thought I would have gotten First Sergeant instead.

Just highlight the red lines.  You will find the difference.

Is it me, or did they lower everything BUT the medals? Which in all honesty, is what REALLY needed to be lowered. I mean 4500 hours of play time . . .
