I think it would be cool if the Unlocks were tied to the combat badges.  Then some of the other badges like the explosives ordinace could unlock gear like the graple or Zip line and the supply badge to get the tear gas in SF.  A Pistol Unlock would be cool.

When 1.03 came out, I was like ZOMG CUMING IN ZE PANTS, now I realize they made it wayyyyyyy to easy. I was at like 8600 pts and real hype for upcoming promotion to Corpral in like 2000 points. Then i get bumped to Gunney, and unlock all these guns, i WAS happy. Now I remember when I hand no unlocks (lol) and I was sooo looking foward to the G3, when ever I got killed by one, I was like 'damn, lol that should be mine.' Now I have nothing left to look foward too, i have all unlocks. If it were 1.02 again I would be a staff sarg i think. It would rock.

Are you kidding me?  There is a 20,000 point gap between my last unlock and my next one.  With 12,000 left to go it feels anything BUT too easy.
Dont youmean 30k?  This is no 20k gap inunlocks..  the 50k tier is very difficult for most people to get to.  I consider myself a litttle better than average and an mow a round away from Sargent Major....   Its taken me over 500 hours to get here....  Thats a significant amount of time for a 34 year old married guy.... 

I think they are fine the way they are.....   Most players have lives outside of BF2.

i dont see why people like the l85a1 it isnt as accurate as it once was but the g36e is the best next to ak101 and ak47.
Because my best friend, back in the day, u didn't have the G36e and such and therefore the L85A1 was a must have for all medics,
My friend, up until this moment, unlocks are still for noobs.

For someone that rarely plays BF2, they are very hard
For someone that played BF2 moderatly there farly even to obtain.
But, for the constant players, they are extremely easy to obtain.

It just depends on what lvl your playing at...rarely, moderatly, or extreme.

considering how many people bitch about the gap between 1st Sgt. and Sgt. Maj., apparently it IS hard

It was easy until they added the officer tier of ranks. Once you get to Sergeant Major, you really have nothing to look forward to except work.

You shouldn't get unlocks so soon, first unlock(s) should be at staff/gunnery sergeant.

i agree with that, but they did that coz in the beginning you needed 15.000 (or something) to get from lance corporal to corporal

My bad.  I was thinking my last promotion was at 30,000 not 20,000.  Anyhow,  a 30,000 point sprint is no walk in the park thats my point....

I'm not asking for any changes though, we've all seen where asking DICE for changes has gotten us.  They need to STOP "improving" the game and simply fix the growing bug list.  With a new game coming out on the same BF2 platform their reputation and sales are dependant on this (or are they?).  Instead, they will likely spend the whole beta phase tweaking the infantry mode, nerfing some more stuff, and glossing over a few more bugs as "not important".  It's really too bad the media rarely mentions bugs when speaking of BF2.  If every article written about BF2 were to include a short paragraph mentioning EA/Dice's dismal efforts at fixing well known and longstanding bugs, perhaps they would actually DO something about the bugs.  Instead, the media rarely touches the word bug and EA/DICE are more confident in just allowing them to persist.

Go DICE!

Well most people will cry if they are harder, and everyone will cry if their to easy. Unlocks suck anyway.

30k points for the last unlocks? yeah, that's SOO easy

sure, you can unlock guns easier now, but just because some n00b can unlock the G36E with 500 points doesn't mean he's going to pwn with it

it's all about skill, not the gun you use
