Ok, here we go...

1) I have the bronze assault badge and have met the required hours of play. I also have gotten 10 heal points in a round. Why haven't I gotten the silver badge ?

2) What is the point value for pins,ribbons medals and badges ?

3) How long does it take for EA to update your solider? I have completed several badge requirements and have yet to be awarded them.

4) I have the latest version of the game with the NS expansion. A several servers I try to get on won't accept me saying I have a "modded" version of the game. I wouldn't have the first clue as to change anything about the game, so why am I getting these mesages?
Thats all (till next time)

Thanks in advance for the help.

There are 2 assault badges. 1 is the assault kit badge and the other is the medic badge. 1 you get by kills and time with the kit and the other by total heal points and total heals in a round. Do you meat the total heals criteria to go for silver?

Pins. badges and ribbons give you additional points that are only good for ranking up, they don't count towards your leaderboard score. Pins only give up to 20 points but you can get these the most often. Badges give you 50 points for bronze, 500 for silver and 1000 for gold. Ribbons can give you 30 to 2000 points, depends on the ribbon. Medals don't give any points.

EA updates soldier stats pretty fast. Doesn't take more than 15 minutes. Points and awards can be lost if the server crashes during the round you get the awards.

When you download and install NS for the first time, you have to patch it to the latest patch. So if you haven't already, patch the game to 1.40 after installing 1.40

- It's not hours of play you need, what you need are hours of play with the Medic Hub, which means Assault. You need to complete global objectives first, then the "In a Single Round" requirements. So if you only had 9 hours with the hub when you got your 10 heals, you still wouldn't qualify. Need to get those 10 hours first.

2) What is the point value for pins,ribbons medals and badges ?
Either 2142-stats.com (down a lot) or look up your own player here :

2142-stats will actually tell you precisely how far along you are with the Medic Hub and how many more hours you have to play to get it.


3) How long does it take for EA to update your solider? I have completed several badge requirements and have yet to be awarded them.
- It's immediate. As soon as you complete the requirements, you see the badge appear. If you don't, you are missing something. If you don't see it at the end of the round in the summary, you won't see it later.

4) I have the latest version of the game with the NS expansion. A several servers I try to get on won't accept me saying I have a "modded" version of the game. I wouldn't have the first clue as to change anything about the game, so why am I getting these mesages?
- I had the exact same problem. Someone else answered correctly, just reapply the 1.4 update to fix it.
