I've been a little confused about one thing. Ever since I bought special forces, I've been able to log on to my account and all the new stats are integrated into your existing account. It even keeps all your global score as one, any points you get in SF or BF2 go towards the same global score. Cool right?

Well, before I bought Special Forces, I had about 7 hours as commander, and around 90 hours as squad leader, squad member, etc. SO I figured to get the Distinguised Service Ribbon, I'd just finish up the next 3 hours (for 10 hours as commander) playing commander in SF.

Well I checked BFHQ and found that I had been commander for 10 hours 45 minutes. So where was my Distinguised Service Ribbon then???

It seems to me, that although all scores from both games go into your account as one, the requirements for medals still track what game the score or time, etc. was played on. So my guess is that I have to get the next three hours on just BF2. This is deceiving, considering seeing how the stats work. I think EA should change this.

Unless I'm mistaken somehow, let me know what you think. Thanks for reading all this by the way

I got the Meritorious Unit ribbon while playing SF so I doubt it keeps the scores seperate. Remember, you have to already have met the time requirements before you enter the round in which you make the 15 points in a round.

The scores of BF2 and SF come both into your global score, they are not seperated.
You can also get all medals of BF2 in SF, like i got my Good Conduct there today.
Only badges and ribbons are seperated.

The requirements state:

IAR: 15 team points
Global: 10h Total time as squad member
Global: 10h Total time as squad leader
Global: 10h Total time as commander


Did you get 15 TEAM points in a round after you made the time requirements? Team points are not your total points for the round. They are the points in the 2nd column. The points you get for heals, resupplies, repairs and flag captures.

A question about the requirements for SF medals. I think this is the best place to post it:
Does it seriously take 4,500 hours as one Special Forces group to earn one of those medals? That's next to impossible! I have been playing since August the Second and haven't even hit 100 hours overall yet.
