you wont get promoted to first sargeant.
you have to have all the badges before you hit 20000.
searching is your friend.

We need a closed sticky from Chuy explaining the split ranks, or these threads will never end unless EA fixes it in another patch or something.

Or they could search.
Or read UBAR where it says it.
Or look at their stats where I went to the trouble of recoding the stats TTA thing to specifically address this problem.

But hey, whatever, ya know.

People are lazy (and stupid). Why should they expend the effort to look in any sensible place when the can spend the time registering here and blurt out the question. -_-

I think chuy's done more than enough to make this information readily available, we don't need another stickied thread for the purposes of it.

It is also worth noting that the upper ranks are not progressive. You will only earn one rank per point bracket. If you make it to Master Sergeant without the awards, you will not be promoted to First upon earning the missing awards.

<sarcasm> So you are telling me that if I don't get all my Basic Combat Badges before I reach 20,000 Global Points that I will never get promoted to First Sergeant?</sarcasm>

Sorry, could not resist.

They might sound like they are 80, but you're the one who needs some new reading glasses.

Sure, we are being hard on you, but you know what when you registered you agreed to use the search function of the site and to not ask stupid questions before looking around a bit. You cleary did not search since this has been all over the forums lately and apparently you didn't even read the webpage you linked to in trying to defend yourself.

Next time just put a little bit of effort into finding answers on your own before tossing up a question that has most likely already been answered. This will spare you from the typical prodding and flaming that comes with asking stupid questions.

You need 7 IAR for basic.
50 total and 7 IAR for veteran.
Lets say I have 50 total but never had 7 IAR, next time I do get 7 IAR, I skip basic and get veteran instead, also NO 1sth Sergeant.

That bug has been squashed... It's no longer a problem.
