Wierd man... I had 11k and I got promoted 3x. I had to do it twice. It worked after I played on an EA server for 3 rounds. Everytime you get a point for kill, flag etc.. you rank up.

yeah. Is this happening to everyone? or just some people.

I am at 3500 points and it shows I have i think 2 unlocks and that I went up two ranks (in bf2 stats) and i go in to play for about 5 minutes and I havent ranked up yet.

How long do i have to play to earn the ranks.... lol, my friend got 3 kills and went up 3 ranks =\ BS!!!

It all depends on your points as to how many you will get, and inorder to get them you need to earn points on a ranked server. Due to the back log of people gaining ranks it wont show up in BFHQ for an hour or so.

Havin' the same issues... quite strange. I've tried on several different ranked servers w/o luck in earning rank.

Grrr...

Try the correct thread for this or risk getting slapped around.

SGTJones-  I am having the same issue as you are (as you can tell by my sig).  Im not sure what you mean by starting a new server (since you gotta pay for it to be ranked and such), and how it would effect the ranks.  Could you elaborate a bit more?

Thanks.

SGTJones97E - No idea how you got the promotion to work. I've had the same issue since yesterday evening. I've played on 3-4 ranked servers since the patch w/o luck. I, too, received the Mid-East Service Ribbon.. and I have much less than 250 hrs in the game... strange. I'll keep pluggin' away.

Please yell if anybody gets a fix for the situation. Many thanks.

Cheers!

No idea what I did differently this time as opposed to the last 3-4 times I've played... but it worked.

Sorry for the bother, folks. Thanks for the patience.

Cheers!

Well, i'm facing this problem also, but i've had this problem since the release of the patch.
When i play, i shoot a guy and i get Corporal, then after 2-3 hours of play, i log out and i log back in again to retrieve my unlock, but when i look in BFHQ it still says that i'm Lance Corporal and i have 1600 points.

Help :'(

As an aside, it took me 2-3 times of getting promoted on different servers for it to "stick." When it stuck, I played the whole round until the new map loaded.. then I jumped off, and quit the program. Once I restarted BF2, it noted that I was promoted and gave me the appropriate unlocks, etc.

I hope that helps.

Cheers!

Well, i played this morning in a quick match, and once again, no promotion.  I guess i should try and offical EA server  to see if it helps, but right now, i am just really frustrated... :-s

Read the patch notes you tards.

Mind showing where in here: ftp://largedownloads.ea.com/pub/patches/patch_103_changelog.txt
it talks about your ranks not updating?  In fact, it says:
"If you are immediately   eligible for a new promotion, unlock, badge, award, or ribbon, it will  be awarded the next time you receive points on a ranked server. "

Guess what?  I have recieved close to 100 points on ranked servers (had played 5 rounds on Wake 2007, ranked, for an hour straight, and still got nadda).  Can be seen here: http://bf2s.com/player/Divine_Madcat/

Now, if you have something USEFULL to add to those who need it, please do so....
