Ohh goddamnit EA, just when my faith in you starts to come back, you NERF the only medal I give a shit about (WCR).

Fuck this shit, between this, no more squad hopping, broken server browsers, red name bugs, and the fucking morons who play this shit anymore, I'm fucking done. I'm going to Wal-Mart after work and I'm buying Counter-Strike.

Enough is enough, I'm tired of getting worked up about what EA fucks up with EVERY release.

1. It's a game.
2. It's released by the largest and richest gaming company in the world.
3. They can't get shit right, and if by chance they do, they fuck something else up.
4. They show they care NOTHING for their fan base by blowing off a petition with 10,000 signatures on it.
5. I'm sick of giving them money for MORE shit. Shit that will bring more bugs and problems and be a disappointment.
6. This game is no longer worth my time or frustration.

Bye bye EA you fucking money grubbing, cocksmoking, worthless ass motherfuckers. Hello Source!

Well, with 136 knife kills as my total, I guess I'll be getting Expert Knife once I'm patched up.

Does seem a bit off. It'll be my first Expert badge. I haven't been playing long enough to really have earned Expert in anything, they should be really hard to get. Best I've managed knifing in a round is 14.

But, if they're just gonna give me the badge, I'm not exactly going to complain. But, I'm also not going to be using my knife much in future either, there's no reason to, except to piss people off. (Amazing how irritating seven inches of steel between the ribs can be, isn't it?)

I think they've made the most idiotic move by removing the Expert Badges from the General rank requirements, especially considering the fact that getting Expert badges is now like getting fucking piddly Veteran badges. Still so stupid of them to require vehicle-based rewards with precedence to infantry-based ones, seeing as the infantry-based awards are the easiest fucking things to get. That's my only gripe...except for the thing about USMC and Wake Island that someone else previously pointed out.

The changes take affect once the GSP's update all the servers. If the server is patched, then it's in affect.

Hmm.. I didnt see anything about veteran or expert amor, was that an oversight or is that still like 300 odd hours or whatever it was.

Its a mixed blessing I guess.. I guess Im due for a lot of badges, but was looking forwards to getting them over the next couple months, not all in one day
