I am getting mad about this.  I understand that the requirements to get the rank First Sergeant are 20,000 points and all the basic combat badges.  Well, I have both of those requirements, and I have had them for a while, but no rank update.  I am still Master Sergeant.

Anyone know why this is happening?  And if so, how can I get my rank?

You can't get First Sergeant from Master Sergeant. You need to have all the basic badges and 20,000 points when you'd be getting promoted to MS, then you get promoted to First Sergeant, but you can't get promoted after you are promoted to Master Sergeant.

I had the requirements BEFORE HAND though, so I should have gotten it.

You probably don't want to hear this, but technically, you didn't have all of the requirements. I don't want to explain the gory details of why this happened yet again, so I'll link the second page of THIS thread.

I will tell you, that the stats server says you got your Expert, and Basic Pistol badge at the same time, Aug 9, 6:41PM. You recieved your Veteran Pistol on Jul 19, 4:49PM. However, I suspect that you got the Vet, and Basic at the same time. But due to the badge glitch, and them fixing it the other night, it took the date from the Expert, because you were still missing the Basic.

Even though the game said you had the Basic, the stats server said you didn't. Most of the stats sites list the highest ranking badge, instead of listing all of them. So you were most likely under the assumption, that you had the Basic.

From what Chuy says, you're out of luck, until you hit 50,000 for the Master Gunnery Sergeant. Sorry man...

Nope, you now have all the Basic badges, since they fixed the Knife/Pistol glitch. But you are stuck at Master Sergeant, and can only advance to Master Gunnery Sergeant.

NM is on top of the ball on this one guys. I agree with his assesment, so you're kinda SOL on this one.
