2 questions, First - I am firstly wondering, At the end of a round, is it just the Commander who gets double points if he wins or all the team, and if so, say i'm on a negative team score or something like -4, will that be doubled to -8? That sure would suck ass, and also, if i die 10 times, would this also be doubled?

Secondly - I am struggling to get certain ribbons etc, and want to know if this is plausible, I need 19 kills to get the Armor ribbon, so if i place Anti tank mines and i kill someone with it whilst i'm in the Tank, does that count as one of the 19 Kills?

I havent been playing BF2 very long so go easy on the Jargon.

First question, only the commanders score gets double if he is on the winning team. So you will never go double negative.

Second question, you will not register armor kills by getting them from mines. However you will register them by being commander and sitting in the armor dropping arty on poor soldiers heads.

VAnilla FTW NOOB 1337 haxors teh uber internet wtf!?!....

but seriously. for the Commander. only the commanders score gets doubled for the win. So if the commanders score looks like this and he is about to win

45 12 6 17
which means he as a total of 45 pts 12 team pts and 6 kills and 17 deaths. at the end of the winning round, his score would look like this.

90 12 6 17 . only his score, not kills/deaths/ team pts gets doubled. i dunno about the negative though.

Due to the current patch. it might register as a tank kill if u place mines and then hop in a tank. BUt to be safe i would just go tank whore on karkan one round, its almost garunteeed

hope this helps.

Ok thanks, one last thing, looking at the requirements for certain awards, they seem to follow no pattern.

For example, Hellicopter service Ribbon, IAR 19 kills? why not 20?

Meritorious Ribbon, IAR 26 mins in a squad, Why not 25?

Have these requirements come from Dice or EA, or from the general consensus from the website creators.
Dont get me wrong, these are of great help, but it seems a bit silly when some of them are nicely rounded off.

dunno, think they liked the idea of strange numbers, I think it sound nicer to have to get 19 kills instead of 20

Ok sorry but one more thing, if i'm a sniper and kill ten people in a round and dont die, does that mean if i do the same in round 2 my kill streak would be 20? and if so, does it carry on till you die on any ranked server?

kill streak is (i think) how many kills you get before you die. and 18 kills in a tank is a laugh just play.

No, kill streak is only in the same round. My kill streak is 53 because i killed 53 people in a row in one round without dying. Does not accumulate.
