BF2S Forums BF2: SF New Badges, Ribbons, Medals, Ranks

666 - if it counts both hours that's fantastic!!!! I really hope that's true!!


btw great job on all this info (esp Jester) As an Aussie, we don't have SF released in it's retail form, so all this info is a great help for us!

i got my basic spec ops after only 5 kills, sniper after ten.
i thought spec ops would be more.

I would like to see the F/A-22 Raptor and a silenced, bolt-action sniper rifle, and I really think it's bullshit that these weren't added in the SPECIAL FORCES FREAKING EXPANSION PACK! >( Buuut that's just me =P

yeh raptor would be a kick ass addition, and im too a bit cut they didnt give us a new sniper rifle.

meh i aslo wanted a new sniper.. either PSG-1 as semi auto rifle for US... or a bolt action rifle for all. the arctic warfaremagnum (g22)... in 300.winmag that would be nice. as the m95 is not that usefull foe some sniper as the-m24 but then they got to use the crappy svd.. so ADD A NEW SNIPER RIFLE^^



here the G22 or also known as AWM

I'd like to see someone getting a BF2 award while playing SF, so far I've seen of noone, who has proof that it is possible.

erm my rank was screwy.. it set me back to private and then i got the basic speopc combat.. and shortly after the basic spec ops specialist... also goes for pistol O.o

I looked at jesters update, and TOO MANY AWARDS WERE COMMENTED OUT!!!!!!!  Now i have no awards to get

in the code, the program doesnt read comments, it helps the programmers understand what piece of code does...

There is no jets.. -_-

HI jester! thanks for the stats! i want too say that the night vision on mi game drains! so i have too recharge it after about ca. 10 min! It took forever too reecharge them! i have the 1.12 patch, maybe its there!?!....tor 11

I know what you mean, but still you do not have a picture of this, do you? I mean a picture taken exactlly the moment you receive the award, so we can see that it's SF you are playing and the award is from BF2.

What ever you did, it partially works, some of my SF badges are already shown and I'm not in an unlimited queue anymore. But not all SF badges are displayed and my score isn't up to date.

I will kindly direct you attention to the big red message at the top of your profile page...

I also found a typing error or is it code based?, the requirements for the Veteran Spec Ops Combat Badge (the one for SF) says:
    *  IAR: 22 kills while Spec Ops
    * 16h Total time played while Spec-ops
    * Basic

Shouldn't that Basic be Basic Spec Ops Combat Badge?

Bug. Fixed.

I also saw, that you named the new SF badges exactly the same way as the BF2 badges, the new ones are not called COMBAT (Badge) SPECIALIST (Badge) except of the Tactical Support WEAPONRY.
Here is how they are all called in BFHQ (B/V/E = Basic/Veteran/Expert):

I got the name straight out of the game files. I guess they override them with something else.

I got my Veteran Assault Combat badge today.   22 Kills but there is no way I've played 16 Hours  in BF2 SF let alone as that class.

You have to understand that whether you play BF2 or BF2:SF the kits are exactly the same. The 16 hrs required is not for playing SF but for how long you've played as that kit, in your case the Assault kit. By your stats you've played the Assault kit for 118 hrs in total and you only need 16 hrs for that badge. You could even go for the Expert Assault Badge in SF if you wanted as the requirements for that are only 100 hrs and you have that already.

In reply to what commented out means: It's a programing term. Comments means exactly what the word says... it makes a comment (statement or note) about something. In this case, programmers put in comments into their code to help them read it at a later time. Kind of like little notes you leave yourself about what groceries you need to buy. They do this in this game by adding a # sign in front of something they want to comment. When something is commented out it means it has a # sign in front of it and so when the program runs it skips over this line. So basically, the programmers for BF2: SF wrote the code for these down but added the # sign in front of these lines so they don't actually run when you play the game; this means that since it is skipped you cannot actually get these badges/ribbons/medals at this time.
