None. Actually. Was kinda disappointed of that myself, but that is the ugly truth.

Let the EA bashing commence, eh?

Hate to break your heart, but it isn't worth squat, none of the medals are worth anything, surprising considering they are the hardest to get.

Doubt it had anything to do with the medal, I know for a fact that it isn't worth anything, and yes, commence EA bashing now.

i like new unlocks
i dont really care about points that much but i do think you should get career points for the medals as you do need to put alot of effort to get them...maybe not so much just infantry combat one per say but like the armor whore one where you need 100h in a tank and 8000 kills you should at least get 1000 career points for that

Actually I think it's not that hard if you got a lot of free time. Getting gold badge on every infantry Kit is WAY harder.

For example 15 knife kills. Ok, getting 8 in a round is pretty hard because people tend to watch their back after 5-6 times. Getting 15 is just way more anoying. >.>

Also 15 pistols kills or how many it was now is also pretty hard to get due to that the pistol only wins if you are behind someone or if they really really suck.

And overall all the gold badges on infantry are way harder than a Tank badge. The Mech badge is easier because you only need to take the map Camp Gibraltar and spawn camp the first flag from the uncap base. You'll almost never see a rocket guy.

BFHQ tells me I have to get 17 knife kills for expert.
I want 2000 for that sucker, not 1000, 17 fooking knife kills is hard because of hit registration.

Not rly. Collector's Gold was my first gold, and I got it on my first genuine attempt. Play Titan, defend your ship. If you can use a bit of stealth, hang out and wait for people to go balls-out towards a console. Or even better, if 3 or 4 are hunkered down at the beginning of a hall. Slice right through all of them.

As long as the assault phase lasts long enough, it's all too easy. SO much more easy to get knifes in 2142.

O RLY?

I did it on Minsk, running around and stabbing PAC snipers and occasionally wiping out squads from behind. Much fun. The final kill got me the gold badge, a promotion, and it was my 200th knife kill. Special special .

I got my expert collectors badge by sitting next to a transport on the back end of a titan. They kept spawning and switching to the gunners seats I just kept running to either side knifing them out of it. Finally they decided to get out of the transport..........that didn't help them either. I just ran up and knifed them there. I think I got like 35-40 knife kills that round. I had 5 pages of awards at the outcome screen most were collectors pins, combat efficiency pins, and titan defender pins. I also received veteran explosive gallantry badge that round.

I would say he's lying, but I was there, watching about 7 people that kept getting owned by his knife...

I got that one, and the Ground Base Medallion. Neither were worth any points.
