Hi,

stats here  - http://bf2s.com/player/57468835/

Shouldn't I be a First Sergeant?  I have 20k plus points and at least Basic Knife Combat Badge, Basic Pistol Combat Badge, Basic Assault Combat Badge, Basic Anti-tank Combat Badge, Basic Sniper Combat Badge, Basic Spec Ops Combat Badge, Basic Support Combat Badge, Basic Engineer Combat Badge, Basic Medic Combat Badge required. I also have ground defense but this isn't showing up in bf2s for some reason.

Can anyone shed any light on this for me?

TIA

I know I'm gonna regret this, but try searching for your answer. This has been covered many times and the information is available in the UBAR.

Search. Because you didn't Search, it made you a Master Sgt.

Badges earnt in game don't always register with EA at the end of a round. Shame I know, I've missed out on some gooduns.

As for the rank, you must have all of the required badges BEFORE promotion. A master sgt who earns the badges wont become a first sgt, you need them before.

Sorry to be the bringer of bad news, but I was in exactly the same position.

I know a guy who had all the badges and got made a master sergeant. Not quite sure why.

That's him, if you wanna check it.


That's BF2, I guess.

Thanks guys - sorry for my ignorance. Searching ubar did give the answer.   


"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."

You are not yet eligible for the advanced rank of Sergeant Major because you are missing the awards: Basic Helicopter Badge, Basic Aviator Badge, Basic Ground Defense Badge.


nothing is as complicated as reading!

Nothing as complicated as reading the post either, he was referring to the rank he has now, not what he will get next. But thanks for playing.
