anyone have any idea how unlocks will work for the top ranks? I'm a General now, and I've been 3-Star 3 times (vacation days =12 hours of 2142/day...lol).

How are we supposed to get 10 unlocks? Getting promoted? There's no way. Anyone have any ideas?

It may be like in SF where they give 1 more unlock for every gun we have already unlocked, nothing has been released about it yet.

They could change the rank structure or add new ranks..... we'll just have to wait and see.

I don't think you have to worry about that, even EA much have seen that problem.

They will probably just give your a number of unlocks based on you current rank.
How many rankups have you had without receiving unlocks? I don't remember when you currently stop getting unlocks.

I considered that, but in SF they doubled the amount of unlocks, here they just add 25% more, so I don't think that would work. They could of course add a free unlock for every 4 that you have.

Unless they add more ranks, we will probably just be given them, as we cant progress any further

You won't get them. You'll have to start over. That's what you get for being so good.

If they make all the Gold ranks worth 2 and leave the silver worth one it works out

I'm hoping they don't give us crap unlocks, I want an actual gun that I will be using regularly, not some almost useless smoke nade.

5) There are ten new unlocks and also increased persistence in the booster pack. Could you give us some hints on what the new unlocks might be, and also how the increased persistence will work?

Rather than earning new unlocks by climbing through the ranks, the booster pack will add 10 new badges which when received will award the player with one unlock credit each. This unlock credit can be used to unlock a standard unlock item or, if you're on top of the unlock branch, a Northern Strike unlock. The Northern Strike unlocks will be available through Field Upgrade for all users who maxed out one or more unlock trees, but only players entitled to Northern Strike can unlock them permanently. A lot of energy has been put into making the unlocks a fun and challenging experience both for the ones carrying them and for the ones not.

I worked so hard to get to Brigadier General, and you say that? That means even more time online being a geek and whoring up the points! .... But you know what? I LOVE IT!
