UPDATE

.
.
.
.

As best I can tell, EA has addressed this problem on their end. As of a day or so ago, players profiles who had previously earned the higher badges, but not the lower are now showing the lower badge as well.

Additionally, the lower badge has the same "Earned Date" on them.

However, it also may look that you will not earn the "second tier" of rank untill unless you have not already gotten it. Er, what I mean to say is a Master Sergeant WILL NOT get the rank of First Sergeant, but upon hitting 50,000 points you will be awarded the rank of Sergeant Major.

For those of you already stuck at Master Gunnery Sergeant, I am not sure anything can be done without another patch from EA.

In response to the websites not showing all badges, here is another site that shows your basic right next to your veteran (If you have it).

I already did. I have a private stats server for my group. The reason it's private, is because we don't have the bandwidth, nor do I want to abuse the stats server. My version of the stats page, shows every award. Which is why it was easy for me to understand what was going on. We've got a few guys that are in the same boat as you...

It's like they live in a cave separated from any sort of community. I mean, not like there is over 300 posts about this "issues" on these forums. Sigh.

I am also experiencing this Master Sgt. ---> to 1St Sgt. problem. I got the vetern knife fisrt...then got the basic knife a few days later. I had this when I got promoted to Master Sgt. , but no 1st.Sgt.  The Master Sgt and Master Gunnery Sgt are the ranks that you get if you dont have the basic badges.  This glitch must get fixed or we may not receive certain badges and medals. I am also not seeing the experience bar`s progress either. YES, this is rather disturbing to see EA messed up. Think we will see all the Marine Officer Ranks get added too?? Oh well, back to gaming.....lol

I am having this same damn issue, and it's pissing me off.  From what I know, you will simply have to wait for 50,000 points, skipping first sergeant and moving on to master gunnery.

I sure love EA

Ok, ok! But what is about the problem with the not moving progress bar? When will this be fixed and is EA also aware of this bug?

And besides: Will anybody be promoted when he reaches 50,000 points without the incident "100% of next rank reached"? I cant imagine that the database will be updated - even with 50,000 points - when this incident is missing in their database. I think that a promotion will depend on two entrees in the database on the account server:

1. Reched the points for promotion

+ (!)

2. Event "100% of progress bar reached"!

And when one is missing - in this case the progress bar - there will be no promotion! That´s what I´m feared about!

I can live with being stuck at master gunnery sgt. till 50,000 pts but would like to see a patch to fix the problem. Mabee include a new vehicle like little bird or something to make others who dont have this prob get something out of it. Just a thought.

I guess I can live with not getting promoted until I reach 50,000 points.  Seems like such a shame.  If I don't get promoted at 50,000 points, I'll be pised.  I've become addicted to badges, ribbons and medals.  Someone please post if you hit the 50,000 mark and have this same problem.  I would like to know if it does work.

I dont understand the confusion... I mean, I do about those of you who had all the badges when you were first promoted and somehow someway didn't get first seargent... but if you are a master seargent and you THEN complete all the badges you shouldn't be promoted to first seargent!?! They're parallel ranks. The promotion occures only from Gunny to either master or first... parallel ranks. The whole point is you need those badges BEFORE your promotion from gunny.

However, I do see the gripe if you have a vet badge for something and that hangs you up. that is crap.

I don't know that too many people can complain about this, the patch didn't change that at all (the parallel ranks and difference in earning the two)... it was like that before.

The only thing I can see that could be a point of frustration might be that witht he patch everyone got promoted WAY faster than they expected before, which meant all that time they thought they had to get the badges they needed flew by.

I can't complain anyway, because I'll probably never get the knife or pistol badge. Don't feel like playing a knife or pistol only server and I enjoy the game way to much to spend a round running around with just those two weapons, probably destroying my already shaky kill to death ratio.

I'm only missing three badges, those two and the explosives badge. I find all three exhausting!

Does anyone know why if there is any kind of order for the SIG codes?  Like my ribbons and badges and medals are not grouped all together?  Are they posted as they are earned?  Or how does it work?  My SIG looks totally different from the guy above me? 

Shouldn't all the same type of awards show up together?
