BF2S Forums different question about war college ribbon

I know, but why does the bar say I have 1 of 3, if I don't even have 1 but only 0,78 ratio??

either I should have 1 of 3 and 33,33 % or 0,78 and 0 of 3 and 25,93 %... ells it doesn't add up..?

indeed and everything lower then 2.55 and higher then 1.55 ( i think) is 2 of 3 and 2.55 + is 3 of 3

it matters to me, because I don't know why it doesn't add up.. and there are allways somebody in here, who knows all kinds of shit about this game. so I might as well ask..

when I buy a game - any game - I want to complete it. in BF2 that means getting all ribbons, medals, badges etc. for starters.. therefor I 'd like to know, how to read the statistics..

OK, but let me give you an advise: don't try to get all the awards, it's nearly impossible, I have played over 215 hours and haven't yet got a single medal (apart from the bronze/silver/gold ofcourse). You can try get ribbons and badges, but as soon as they require a lot of "global time", as far as I can tell, they suck, they are nearly impossible to get. I mean, it would be nice to be able to get the avaitor medal when you get a real good score somehow, but you only need like 300 hours, and that sucks if you ask me. What I'm trying to tell is trying to get ribbons is cool, but don't go for the medals, they aren't worth it ;-)

Well it aint impossible, he can try you know. we wont see him sooner than 2010 but atleast he got them all

lol you've got a point: like I am supposed to have 20,000 kills with helicopter in about 21,726 days (which will be in let's say 2023). Hm, I wonder if I have it by than ;-)

LOL I am GLAD I haven't got the Purple Heart, for me it's a sign of being good rather than bad if I don't have it. I won't be pround if I get recommended for it. And yes, in 35 hours I will be able to get the Good Conduct Medal, but that's after 250 hours of playtime... :S

it depends on your point of view, I guess.. to me, it's a goal in it self to achieve every expert badge, ribbon and medal... and I DO know it won't happen next week.. but i'm rather patience..! I don't care if it will take me years to get every thing.. ( and believe - some of them will!)

actually that's the cool part about this game.. a year or two from now, I'll probably still have something to fight for every time I log on.. the SF medals says 4500 hours. I've heard that's not true, but even if all 6 took me that long, it would still be my goal - even if 6 medals a' 4500 hours each would mean playing for 24/7 for 3.08 years PLUS all the other medals etc..

and the purple heart is something most people will get once on purporse, just to have that spot on your statistic sheet filled out... but having it awarded twice is embarressing...

and I would know, 'cause I was awarded twice... sigh..

mads please keep in mind it's only a game, you don't really gain anything while gaming for 4,500 hours to get one lousy medal...

Yeah it might look nice, that purple heart, but to me all players who have one are n00bs ;-) ( I am so glad I am still able to say that, I hope I don't ever get that "piece of shit")

hehe may an AFK moment be in your future.

I know it's a game, but I am having fun, when I am serious about a game..

and besides that, I love to play FPS games, and would play them in my sparetime anyway, so I might as well be playing one, that will have a chellenge for me for years to come..

and finally - if it were just a game, we wouldn't need official referees for some of the matches, would we
