Yes I know. There are thousands of topics of this kind. But faith made it impossible for me to get the expert explosive badge.

First: I get 41 kills. 36 of them are c4 kills. The rest are vodnik,t90 kills. People getting out their vehicle seconds before the explosion. Hence, I get a kill from a vodnik or some sort. How annoying. Yeah.

The second time I try: 38 kills with c4. I'm wondering why the heck I don't get the badge. Probably 2 or 3 kills that are not legit. GRR.

Third time I try: 36 kills. ALL legit c4 kills. F*c GGRRRR

Forth time I try: 30 c4 kills and 150 tickets on both teams! Will I get it now? Suddenly, my ping raises. The entire game I have a ping round 100. Then: "Sorry Speelbal, you're being kicked. *Ping too high*" WTF? My ping is fine? I get the message: You were kicked by a vote, possibly exesive teamkilling (..). I try to rejoin the game but the game locks up. Can;t do anything, so I reboot.
After 3 minutes I'm back in the game. My ping is 200. I see it raising to 350. I get kicked! I try several times to get it, but I keep getting kicked. ...

5. I join a server. 23 kills with explosives. 160 tickets. Going well. Suddenly, my team decicedes to give up. The enemy got all the flags, and no one is left. Again no badge.

6. After this try I only got 10 kills with explosives, then I mostly quit because I know I woný make it. Wake Island. Server decides this map. Not the best map for explosives. So I try to vote for Karkand. 10 c4 kills or so. Nope, 1 flag left, USMC side raping the shit out of us with a cobra and 4 jets. Can't do anything. This is the point where I give up.


*&#&#)@#(*#(DFUCK BADGE _&E_(U@IU DJI HATE IT *#_@*UPDOIJNO WAY_@*_(@#OEI

In short: 'll never get that badge. All help is welcome. I know all the tricks. Can do the c4 trick ..somehow. Jihad Jeeping, mining, claymore's around corners. So, if there are people who need the badge, or allready have it, let's help each other out by supplying each other, reviving when it goes wrong and stuff like that. Whoever feels like helping me, PM me, contact me via mail whatever. I need serious help with this badge.

Thanks for listening.

It is my only expert badge atm, not difficult to get at all. Just look for 24h Karkand server.
I think you don't need any more advices, because you don't sound like a noob with c4

Nope. Now I know it for sure. I will never get that badge in my life. I tried it once more. Last one for today.
This server:

Server IP:  64.182.158.249:16567
Server Name: -=Death Syndicate=-
Server Ping: 14969
Server Info: Daqing Oilfields (27/32)
Game Type: gpm_cq
Friendly Fire: 1
Autobalance: 0

It is in my favourites. Never knew why.  It goes well. I have 35 LEGIT c4 kills. 26 tickets left. Im at a MEC spawn. I say: 2 more. Before that I said I was sorry for Jihad jeeping. 5 seconds after I say : 2 more. I get this message:

Yeah that's right. An admin that thinks he's funny. Before this kick he kicked me with the message: KICKING!!!! ignoring ds requests. Don't know what it ment, know I do.

Faith doesn't give me the badge, that must be clear to you guys now too. I have given up on that badge. Just not possible for me. Let me say one more thing to clarify.
I tried to get the expert badge since I got 300 explosives kills. Now, I have 1250 or so. Check my stats. That does say a lot doesn't it..

Try The Waterhole, it is a 64 player map, with a max of 20 players.  Therfore, the round time is really long.

My advice.. find a good server with good admins cause if you get 30 c4 kills with 150 tickets left then it aint impossible for you.. so find a good server and u will get it

Maybe your just destined never to get it... one of those faith things you keep talking about... maybe God doesn't feel your worthy of it

I know I'll never get it either... but then I can't bring myself to become a C4 whore

I've got over the required number of kills for Expert several times already so it's not impossible. The best map is a 64 player Karkand as USMC Spec Ops cos the MEC tend to crowd the alley leading to the Hotel flag as they attempt to defend it. Some people suggest playing as MEC instead but the problem I found wos that the USMC are far more likely to take alternative routes when attacking the flags therefore reducing the number of possible kills.

Jihad jeeping is a cheap and annoying tactic which I never use except for times when the whole team is too dumb to destroy a camping apc/tank. Having some decent players on your team also helps. Oh, and a bit of luck too. Certain events in a match can sometimes go your way while on other days everything seems to go against you. You've just gotta keep on trying. If you give up you're a loser. Is that wot you are m8?

PS: Visiting a server where the option for Teamkill Punishment is ON is a rather dumb thing to do when going for your Expert Explosives Ordinance badge cos accidents are bound to happen PLUS there are team mates who don't give a damn when they know you're trying to booby trap an alleyway with C4. There are some good servers out there where the option to punish when teamkilled is OFF. Search for one!

Yeah I know how to get the badge, but fortune (misfortune) always decides I won't get it. Moslty external elements, like bully admins.

Allright, I will try this one more time. But note: I have tried it since I got 300 global explosive kills. Now I have 1000 more.

Try out the Heroes Must Conquer Karkand server based in Sweden. It's a 64 and has the teamkill punishment option switched off. Just type in Heroes in your filter and the server should pop up. Good luck!

YES.  the people at EA foresaw your current dilemma...  They distinctly made some badges impossible to get, so you would do everything to get it and come here to this forum and bitch on it....
It is part of EA's plan for world domination, step 11 of 100: make explosive ordnance badge impossible to get for certain players.....


.....get over it.......

its funny you post that, grant it i didn't take a screenshot, but I was booted from a server w/ only 5 tickets left.  I was MEC on Karkand, I had 70+ points the closest person to me was around 50.  I was going after my Distinguished Service Medal so yes i was medic whoring but I had over 20 kills so i just wasn't doing that.  Anyway I was booted trying to be like Blazin.UK piss on that check my stats.  I play every class.

YUUUUUUUUUUUUS! I HAVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!! FINNALY! It was on PureEvil server. Got exaclty 37 kills with 2 g36C kills. Towards the end though, I couldn't get near an enemy. I got it with 5 tickets left. So...well.. Faith is still against me!

Atleast I got it, but I'm waiting for it to show up here, or in BFHQ.

(You know what would be a bitch? If there was a server error wich didn't record my stats. If that happens...It's really true..)
