Just wondering now with the patch and most all time requirements lowered, there was no mention on the biggy, the armour badge (note not the armour medal). Is it still 400 hours? Or is it 150 for expert like the rest?

Thanks for filling me in (anyone who does can have + 1 karma - or -1 depending if you bat for the other team if you know what i mean!

I assume since it isn't mentioned it hasn't been changed. I have about 25hours in armour and have received nothing new.

that was my complaint too, they lowered the helo and plane down but not armour expert, they should have lowered the armour expert to 300hrs from 400hrs,  i mean they got it backwards, 100hrs in armour u get a medal??  medals should be tuffer to get than badges hello!!!!!!!!! what i think they should do, is less hrs and more kills.  i mean how easy is it to get 24kills on armour expert easy i say, they should make it 300hrs and at least 40kills for expert armour!!!

especially when veteran is 100hrs then it jumps to 400hrs for expert, to much of a jump should be 300hrs, and the only reason i am complaining because they lowered the hrs for other things, WHY NOT THIS???

i have almost 300hrs of armour time.......................
which i dont play very much, because dont really want to drive another 100hrs, its alot, burnt out, doing something else!!

A. Search.

Well that does seem kinda stupid. That the same for expert pistol as well (i mean are there still the IAR requirements now that knife doesnt have any)?

Thanks c0rce and GODFULLMETALJACKET (+1 karma).

Hmm seems my fiendish plot was foiled by the search police before it got out of hand (even though when you do search for armour requirements you just get hundereds of posts about is it 300 hours or 400....)

Pistol stayed the same too, but that isn't a big problem, if you really want 300 pistol kills you could achive it in a couple of weeks by just walking around with pistol all the time. Wouldn't help your stats particularly though

that's how i got all of mine.. just take a shot and take a dude's health down to 10% and then whip out your pistol.

it looks like the armor badge stayed the same in the time requirement department.  My theory: there are a lot more tanks available than jets/helos.  I can't think of a single map that DOESN'T have a tank.  Tanks seem more popular and more available.  So, EA/DICE decided to leave the time requirement high to set the experts apart from the n00bs.

Or i may have no idea what i'm talking about.  But hey, it's a theory!

I had +150hrs before patch and others also. no Expert Armor. I think 200hrs would've been reasonable and attainable by those of us who use it alot. 400hrs in armor seems beyond resonable at this point. Maybe in the patch theyll give us to fix 1.3 before they give us AF.

they didn't change this badge at all, the medal however was changed.

Exactly. This is my gripe. If the reason for not changing the badge is because Armor can be found on every map; why change the medal? In my opinon, the medal should be hardy to obtain, ans it's more "prestigious," so to speak.

My guess is the same guy who coded the veteran tactical in patch 1.21 coded the armor badges in this patch. It'll probably be adjusted in 1.31, or whatever comes out next.
