Well that's gay, now it's too easy.

I would have thought the last medals/ranks of the game would be hard...heh..guess not. By the time anyone gets to 200,000 points, they ought to have all their veteran badges. So therefore it's just like any other rank.

if this is true about requirements dropped ill be soo pissed, i have all vet and a couple of expert like heli and GD , i also am close to getting expert on the rest of the vehicles..(without any idling ) and to be going out of my way to run around in a pissy AA just to help towards my expert and general requirements just to find out i didnt have to, well i wouldnt be too happy.

also this means there will be LOADS of generals and what would you get when you get all expert, will there be another rank?

And thats why, I think it is worth doing something against the next changes, I doubt its too late. If you have something against these changes, join EA forums and write something into this topic: http://forum.eagames.co.uk/viewtopic.php?t=22959

you are a frickin idiot that is that commander glitch if you didnt notice both guy have on like 30 hours played and only the kit and vehicle veteran so next time look at time played that is the bigest factor if you have under 500 hours at least you might be hacking or breaking rules

Who the hell are you.

Are you a frickin idiot? No, excuse me, you are a FUCKING idiot.

The accounts start with EATEST if you dident know.

They have 30 hrs and all veteran vehilcle badges.

They are generals with all vet vehicle badges while you have to have all experts.

Now if you still dont get it, which i dont think you do.....These are EA controlled accounts being tested for the new patch.

Good day to you my royal king dumbass.

EA makes test accounts to test out things like this. If this is final, then that's nice... I could never do all those hours for expert badges.

Remember for I think 1.03 when they lowered the rank requirements, there was that account JohnnyButane that had 20K points and First Sergeant, which was an indicator of lowered ranks. I think this is gonna be final.

it may also prove that EA want to make us move on to the next bf game. By lowering all the medal requirements, we get them fast and are nolonger interested in that game, and hopefully go on to bf2141

clever strat on their behalf...

Hmmm... So I spent an extra 20 hours on AA for nothing.
that's why for the last 2 months I haven't even been trying to work on badges. I knew they would change it like they do every patch - something changes.

I dont understand why either of you will be pissed, you act like you were playing the game as a team player in that AA instead of using your time and body to cap flags. It's the people like you why the game is having the requirements lowered, everyone wants bragging rights and to do that unfortunately you have to time pad to get those awards. Nobody is getting 25 kills in a tow gun in one round of karkand legitly while not commanding. Most people that got their basic ground defense badge and AA badges got them commanding.

All of the people that are top dawgs are commander whores, or point accumulating medics. The idea of the game is to have fun with the incentive of earning awards for your hard work. To show your specialty.

All of the ranks will be modified in the upper class area, all of the top 20 colonels will be promoted to general every month as it said on EA's website. All of the ranks that require expert badges will be lowered down to vet requirements. I am working on getting all of my experts too but hell if they're going to modify the requirements to get them I am just going to go back to enjoying the game and wait to see what the new rank or medal requirements are before I waste anymore time sitting in an Air Defense vehicle when I can ground pound in a bomber or do some damage as the assault class or possibly play a support role to help my team. And actually throw ammo bags instead of playing support just to use the almight pkm.

I think the changes that EA is going to make with the new patch are going to be for the good and its going to be what seperates the people that are good players from the people who sit back and play smart w/o really contributing to the battle at all.

I am pretty happy about the changes myself. I appreciate the info that you have given the rest of us. I too was a bit worried about sitting in a AA for 100 hours. Although I am only at like 84000 points I might actually have been able to obtain the general status late next year!

Hopefully they might give something to those that have all the experts? Did you hear anything about that by chance?

137[CSi], thanks for the info again man. I completely agree what you said in your post. I even said to myself that I can now actually play the game and not worry about insane requirements.

Kessel! - From the look of that page, the only conclusive answer would be 650hours . . . which means they jacked that one up! Doesn't make sense as what would happen to the people who already have it? I've never seen them increase any awards in any of the prior patches.

Not a problem, the only reason why I cannot go into details is because I dont want any news scoops popping up taking away whatever stupid excitement EA hopes to get out of the new changes announcement. If anything I would like to have them polish the game instead of implementing more useless shit like transport drops.

someone said, that ea is lowering the standards, because of the new game battlefield 2142...

if ea doesnt some how make the leaderboards into 2142 by using the old leaderboards, than i am done with games forever...

battlefield 2 will probably be the last game i ever really get into...

if these leaderboard never cease to exist, i may be an internet gamer junky the rest of my life,  if they do cease to exist maybe ill go find a life maybe even make a little money, so there you go ea my life in you're hands.

But ea mark my words, the destruction of these leaderboards will be like taking nicotine from my ciggerates, i wont have need for it anymore.

Judging by what was said in the preview BF2142 will have a unique leaderboard. Although that doesn't mean BF2 one will not still be going.
