I've achieved the silver engineering excellence badge (aka the repair badge) three times in roughly the past 24 hours. The first time, the badge popped up during the round and in the round summary, but when I went to BFHQ to check out the requirements for gold, it was showing that the silver badge wasn't there. I figured I just got on a bum server or something, so I went elsewhere and achieved it again. Same thing happened. So I did it again, because I hadn't been keeping track of my points, and wanted to see if it was crediting me 500 points but not giving me the badge. Which is indeed the case. Check my stats below, you can see that its still crediting me for the silver.

So at least for me, the repair badge is broken - inhale the irony. I'm definitely not complaining though , as 500 extra points per round is pretty sweet.

This happened with my distinguished service ribbon - it did show up in my stats after 2 attempts - and I did get 1000 points for it. Glitch in EA I think.

I earned my titan attack veteren today for 500, got the points but the badge never showed up. I got 28 kills on the enemy titan. I am trying again to see if I earn the extra points..

Doesn't matter, once you hit general career points will mean nothing.

Yeah, none of my time is updating nor my badges or ribbons so i cant be eligible for the extra points. I only need half an hour more with engineer so i can get my engineer attack badge silver. Not fair.

I've gotten the Good Conduct Ribbon (500pts) three times. One time legit, the other two when I had the recruit bug. (I also have a couple bronze badges twice because of this as well.)

I have been thinking about this and it reminds me of something. Remember the commander bug that gave thousands of points to random people, It seems to be something like that. So I would not go trying to exploit the glitch unless you want to get reset like EA/DICE did to those unlucky souls from BF2.

Naah.. 30 Titan Attack Points is easy if you stay outside the Titan.. I got it after my 3nd try (don't try it much since most of the time I lag like hell on the enemy Titan..)

On topic; last week I earned all my Basic Support 2x, Basic Recon 2x and Basic Assault 3x. And I earned 3 ribbons again ( 2550 points worth +100 from the badges ). Not that it matters much since I'm Brig. General.. but hey.
In BFHQ I've still got my Recon Combat Gold, Support Combat Gold, Engineer Combat Silver and Assault Combat Silver.

What I have learned from the repair tool is that if you repair it while no one is in it you gain a repair point but it won't add to your score during that round. So you could get that Medal without getting a single repair point during a round.

Little bit a buggy eh but whatever it still easy to get and no points are given. So wth.

So will they also count for the 15 Repair Points IAR requirement of the Expert (Gold) Engi Badge?

fixed now i believe. i have been awarded everything

@scubby / i have that too. i bet you repaired titan aa guns once in a while? they count as repair points (you get 2 points) but it doesn't say "you got a repair point!" your score just goes up.

Not what I know. To get the repair badge SOMEONE must be in the vehicle/turret you repair otherwise it will only add it to your repair points at the stats page. But not in game.

I got my repair gold badge by repairing the guns, the best chance is to repair them while someone is sitting in them and someone else destroying them. So if the guns are near an AA tower just wait untill they are getting destroyed and tell a friend to sit in them under that time

I have gotten lots of ribbons and badges a second time due to the private bug but they don't count on my career score.
