BF2S Forums Couple of questions about AWARDS. UBAR makers would know the answers.

See, didn't even need an UBAR creator to handle that question.

2- You get command points from being commander, a lot of people say your command score is your team's average team score..so I'll go with that.  They also say that you can get more points if you resupply squads with supplies, and kill people with artillery.  I don't know if it's true but it probably is, I don't command.  And you don't get points for killing people with vehicles/weapons while you are commander, so it doesn't matter.

3- Armor is considered an APC or a tank.  Not sure about the driver/gunner part.

4- Yes, on all the helicopters.  I got my basic helicopter in the back of a black hawk.

OK! first of all thanks alot, omg replies are received so quickly!!!

3+4 are understood aswell now.

About 1... So if I was commander from the beginning of the round, and in the table at the end it wrote I have 52 points, it means It's before the 2x??? i.e, is that what they mean when they say "IAR: 40 Command Points"? Is that what they mean when they say "IAR: 50 Command points (before 2x)"???

Thanks alot again, so kind of you

FYI - IAR  means "In a Round",  meaning it must happen in one round.

40 points while being comm', not hard to understand tbh

To answer the Commander question:

Yor score at the end of the round is the average of your team. If your team wins the round the Commander of the winning team gets 2x. The scores displayed at the end of the round *include* the 2x for the Commander. Thie means before the round ends you need 40 command points to obtain the badge.

while talk about commander stuff, the score after the 2x doesnt count to your BR in the scores does it?

i scored 81 on wake island before the 2x and i look at the scores and the 81 is the BR.. but i did switch to commander late in the game.

May I put it this way, hope that it could help.

Assuming you are a medic and are not a commander at the beginning of a round, you go out to kill, to heal, to revive, etc. and get 10 team points and killed 3 enemies.  So, you've got 16 points.  Obviously, these don't count as commander's point.

Then, you find that the commander post is vacant and apply for it and get it.  You then hide some where and give orders, fire artillery, drop support box, etc.  You will get some score (how?  There are lengthy discussions but I have reservations on the "conclusions".  And frankly, I don't know, sorry). 

On the top of the commander screen (i.e where you place UAV, etc.), you can see a score.  THAT IS THE COMMANDER'S SCORE.  It is different from the score shown on the scoresheet at the end of the round.  That score counts when you are talking about badges and ribbons about commander's score.

Got it now?

As long as you get the points while comm', you should get it, worked for me

that score is the same as the one on the scoreborad (as far as ive seen)

Command Badges Explained:

Basic Command Badge:

Earn 40 commander points in a round before said round ends. Commander points are indicated by the magic number on top of your COMMAND SCREEN (with all of the squad info and the detailed map stuff). At 40, you will get your badge. You need command points! Not team points, not kill points, not any other points...just command.

Veteran Command Badge:

When you have 1000 total commander points to your profile, command for 25 minutes in a round. There's your vet badge.

Expert Command Badge:

When you have 10000 total commander points to your profile, command for 30 minutes in a round. There's your expert badge.

Tanks and APC's

When you get a kill with a non-driver position in a tank or APC, it still counts as an armor kill, so I would assume that time spent in these positions counts towards time spent in armor.

i dont know why this is so hard for ppl to understand but since you've posted last morbesso666 its pretty well explained to death CO score in the commander's screen is what matters, time requirement blah,blah blah.

with the vet ground defence are you sure its 12 kills? i have gotten up to 20 and no medal.
