Well today been a bad day untill my last round. BF2 kept crashin when i was commander, when i was the best player on the map or i was not even abble to get in the game cuz BF2 was crashing to my desktop.

I went eating, came back and give it a last run for the night. So i get on Wake Island, apply commander of USMC...get it ...start playing, decide to go protect my artilery, so i drive to the little artilery island.

Sit in the AA and start commanding my troops, they done a great job kept advancing but slowly. shut down a few planes and 2 choppers with the AA(way more easier now) and keep striking the artilery

No where...i received my Air Defence Ribbon , which i dont understand since i only destroyed 7 jets/choppers and its 11 kills are required.

Oh well...keep commanding, then received my veteran engineer combat badge! LOL!! i never shot anyone!!
Finally got a smile from playing BF2, then i received a promotion to staff sergeant!!! And finish the round with a gold medal!

all that without BF2 crashing. Back in love with BF2 lol untill 2morrow when its gonna start crashing again.

Now i came with with the conclusion that if i received the ribbon and badge its because when u strike the artilery and killed the ennemy with, the kills are registered (NOT on the player score) and i guess while i was sitting in the AA and strike the artilery, well it registered as AA kills AND! as engineer kills too.

for some reason you still get badges when your arty. kills people, odd glitch IMO, even if I got my Basic Engineer Combat Specialist badge like that, since I HATED being engineer before I unlocked the Jackhammer & MP7

Not sure if this'll count or not, but what about when you shoot down the attack helo that has a pilot and gunner, wouldn't that count as 2 of the necessary 11 kills? or a fully loaded troop transport! Mmmmmm death and decay.. But there is also the point that you are credited for the kills that your arty makes, though you don't get points for it IAR.
