I hate when EA fucks you out of a badge

Ya, I happened to notice that I had achieved 100 hours as AT kit. So I go for expert on Wake in various ways(tanks, jets, chopper, ground) I managed to get my 40th kill at the end of the round by running someone over in the PLA hummer. No expert, round ends. Very disappointing indeed. Not that it's hard to get, but I still worked hard for it that round.

I've also achieved badges in the past only to see them disappear from my stats the next day. I really wish they would fix crap like this. It's really a de-motivator.

Artillary strikes dont count towards your IAR kills

yeah, actually they do.

Tank whoring is probably the easiest especially if you're on a more concentrated map like karkand. Roll down to the meat grinder with a good tank and knowledge of when to get repairs and you'll have your badge.

Yeah, i'm hesitant of trying 35 kills after i get the 100 hrs for sniper (like 8 hrs left) cuz i wasn't given my expert knife and that was the last straw

No actually they dont. Your artillary kills dont show at the end of the round as kills. Nor will the artillary kills help in your achievement in kit badges. I have over 100hrs commanding with lots of artillary kills IAR trust me.....And if you are in a anti air or anti ground defense unit and u kill with artillary it still does not show as kills at the end of the round..but it goes as total kills for that unit you are in on your BFHQ stats.EX sit in anti air for 1/2hr as commander kill 35 people with artillary your anti air stats will increase 1/2hr tin time and 35 extra kills...

Did you have enough knife kills to qualify for the Expert Badge?

Some servers doesn't report certain badges. If you didn't get a badge, try to get it on another server.

What is a "real kill"?

As he said....
for example if you shoot an eryx missile in an vodnik and the guy jumps out of it and gets cought in the explosion or simmilar.
Then you killed him with the Vodnik and not with the "anti tank kit".

Then again i had the same problem.. it usually always takes me the requirements + 1 kill to get the badge finally.

I lost the helicopter ribbon twice because of that...

got the same thing. after you got 100 hours you must disconnect of the server then join another and do the same thing.. works for me

Sorry but 6 out of my 7 VET KIT! badges been achieved with ONLY artilery kills. So the kills from artilery can get u ANY badges u want just sit in it send artilery and wait. i received my helicopter ribbon today with artilery kills mainly too by sitting in the gunner seat

The complaint section is more fun than chatter. I don't make retarded mindless bitches either. Every point I make is rational and justified.If you are just going to mock the people that complain then don't come to the complaint section.
