BF2S Forums Awards & Promotions!

Got this a while ago as usual....   Man i'm lazy.


Now to go for expert AT and Operation Blue Pearl may have just made that very easy.

I suck with the knife so I ran around with it for a while today and finally got basic and vet knife

^ Nice job Oxen Breeder, 400 hours in armor is crazy!

As for these next few awards, all I can say is that I love time servers (yes, I know, it's very cheap. But if it's any consolation, look at my SPM)

I got about 35 hours into each medal before I gave up and went for idling. So sometimes I cba to play Iron Gator or Devil's Perch or Leviathan, just not all the time

Very cheap. Can't be arsed to actually play Iron Gator? Not hard to do man.
Good job Oxen. I have that one in 2 accounts. 800 frikken hours in armor killing noobs and planes whores (thks Safrguns)

Thanks guys.

Funny thing is, I had been burned out as of late with BF2. I had roughly 330 hours in armor, and made the stupid decision that I'd go ahead and run my time up to 400 by playing Highway Tampa. Well, dumbass me forgot that you have to get the 24 kills AFTER you get the 400 hours. I got the 400 mark in about the end of February.

I had tried several times after I got my 400 hours to get the 24 kills, to no avail. I figured with my luck, it'd take me another year and a half to get the kills. I've played, maybe 5 hours of BF2 in the past 6-8 weeks, due to my running up my hours. But I decided to join my buds last night for some fun.

I got in the round at roughly the halfway point. I jumped in the tank after riding around in an APC for a bit, I could have sworn that I had at least 3-4 kills in the APC. I hadn't even paid attention to my kills till I got my 14th-15th. I thought if the round went as slow as it had been going, that I might, MIGHT, have a chance at getting expert. I was having so much fun just mowing people down.

Low and behold, up pops my expert. I knew I was getting close, thinking I had like 27-29 kills, but when I checked my kills, I was at 24 exactly. All this time, I put pressure on myself to GET 24 kills in a round, all I had to do to begin with, was to relax and have fun. Enjoy the game. That's all it took. Too bad I didn't get those 24 without dying any, I still need like 4 rounds of 25 kill streak to get my combat action medal. Maybe I can take a Xanax sometime and I'll get it too, J/K.


@ Stubbee, I can't imagine having 800 hours in a tank. It's taken me on and off, playing BF2, close to 4 years to get 400 hours. I think 1/4 of my total time is in a tank. I'm free now though, lol. Free at last, free at last....... Where's a helo?

Finally one I can be a little proud of

Still only took one round in a Linebacker on Kubra to get Vet and Expert AA so it's not like expert armour

^ You always get the awards when you aren't trying for them That's just the way it goes, haha.


On the other hand, I got into a knife fight with a clan mate, lost, then respawned to find he had run into my claymore and got me this; my fourth.

Congrats on the 4th, those GC medals aren't easy to come by either.

Congrats on that one Narupug, that may be one I may never get.

You only need to get a streak of 25+ once, then you'll earn a Combat Action Medal for every 25,000 kills/250 hrs...I have 3 of them.

Thanks for clarifying that for me Mr Anderson. I was under the assumption that I had to get 25 rounds of 25 streak/kills, mine is showing 21 of 25, hence where I got the 4 that I need.  D'oh You'd think with me playing this game for almost 4 years, I would have known this by now.

And Mr Anderson, your screen name is too funny to me. One of my 7th grade teachers, his name was Mr Anderson, Joe Anderson to be exact, don't recall what he taught though. Anyway, he used to pick his nose in front of the class, and eat his boogers. True story. I don't believe that man had any shame. Used to gross us all out. I remember one girl having to run out of the class one morning, she almost tossed her breakfast. Just thought I'd share.

Sit in AA, stationary or mobile, and drop arty.

Hey Oxenbreeder! That AA badge isn't hard at all! I got mine at Ghost Town "legit". (before I lost all my awawrds cause a hack...) All you need to do is driving with the tank and the APC for protection at Ghost Town and you'll get it in no time!

The easiest way, I've found, to get the AA badge is just to use it as an anti-infantry gun as opposed to an AA gun.  It's great for killing off infantry on maps like Ghost Town where you can hide from/shoot down the helos, and there are tons of baddies on foot to kill.

Exactly what I ment! But it's easiest with the Linebacker 'cause of the exploding bullets! You kind of miss a lot of view when using the Tunguska.
