[Punisher18]

plus maybe you admin's can turn this into a sticky that way people arent getting all confused and what not. doesnt matter to me. i just wanna see all these people asking the same questions over and over again to stop. lol

[GameWizard]

We have all this info posted in our strategy guides section on the main page.

[Punisher18]

yes, i know that but some people do not look there. i am not trying to contradict you or give you any attitude but i have checked and some of the ones on your main page are no right, because i used to use that but i never got some of them when i did what it said. but once i followed this it was right. im not trying to stir up a commotion because i don want any trouble , all i am saying is that this is a little more correct. plus alot more people look in the forums for that kind of thing.

[Kevin123456789]

lol lol

[NEMESIS2K501]

lol what was the point of this thread. All this info is in the stratagey guide section of this site. I havent read all the info u pasted in here, but the part about being 99% correct is proboly tru. I have gotten my veteran explosives badge. And I was always referring to this site. This site is correct on all the basic badges i have collected all those as u will see in my sig. The veteran pistols badge I am not entirely sure of because the most kills I have gottin in one round with a pistol is 17, honestly, u can get it easily on Strike at Karkand. Some people I know are saying that u need 500 global kills with pistol before ur even eligible for trying to get the elite pistol badge. I have the veteran of pistols too. The weird thing is that veteran pistols and knife is different i think. Vet pistols u need 50 global kills to be eligible and knife I am not entirely sure but I wasent able to get it until i had more than 70 global kills with knife. I am just telling u what stats I had at the time of gettin the vetran badges. For the explosives badge I think u need 500 global kills, but u need to get 25 instead of 23 kills in one round with explosives. Basically all I can say is that this is how I got my vet badges and I have recieved them within at least 2 weeks or so. If totalbf2 reads this they don't have to believe this, I am just sharing my experiance with all fans of BF2. But look at my sig and u'll see that I have the badges to prove it.

[GameWizard]

Yes, I'm aware that some of the info is incorrect, I haven't had time to work on the site and correct all the little issues. I have lots of things planned, so don't worry. When I have more time in a few weeks, ill be able to get everything fixed and updated.

[NEMESIS2K501]

no problem just throwing it out there. This site is a fine piece of work, lots of info is sharred in the forums, the badges, ribbons and all are things to look foward to, and they push people harder and harder for that reward. I thank this site because it helped me with my awards as u can see, expecially the veteran explosives badge, when I hit 23 kills I had to go further. I know the info will be fixed soon, and I will share any info that will help with the corrections. Thank u totalbf2 for giving the facts to the best first person shooter game ever.

[Punisher18]

hmm... that explosive must be differant for diferant people or something because me and my friends got it at 15 kills with c4????? lol

[[120mm]Tefty]

Arg, just play the game. and find out for yourself? Its not like KNOWING that you only have to spend 10 mins doing something will make it go any quicker.

[NEMESIS2K501]

actually come to think of it there are glitches right now in the game. Like I am mad with c4 I get at least 15 kills a round with em. Now I am like at 730 global kills with explosives. But one thing is I think the server u play on might have an effect because I have played on servers where i did not know their location, and i would realize after 2 games or so I am not gettin any global points for the game. But when I go back to the servers by my location, then all the sudden the points start comming back. So like when u got ur basic explosives badge it might of lagged so it didn't give it to u. Or u know there is a minor thing some people don't look at. This is important if u are going for badges. What some people fail to realize is that u need to get the kills with the explosives. I am not sure of the methoid u used for ur kills, but every time u get a kill make sure u look in the top left of the screen to see if he was killed with explosive, primary weapon, pistol, knife. I havent made that mistake, but that might be some thing that u failed to realize. Like sometimes when I use explosives for instance c4, sometimes when i detonate them it says the kill was made by HHWMV, Linebacker, Tunsuka. If u have noticed all those are a armor or vehicle catagory. It happens to me sometimes, and yes i have found a glitch with the c4 as well, cause that's all i use. The glitch for c4 is when u throw c4 and switch to the detonator u cant press it right away. U got to wait for at least a sec or so. Yeah it is a shame because if it wern't for this glitch i'd have over 900 kills with explosives right now. But i still get a reasonable amount a round. Yeah but mainly important, if u were trying to kill someone with explosives and it said he was killed by a vehicle when u use c4,mine, or claymore, make sure u look in the top left to see how the guy was killed. Yes this might sound dumb, but trust me there are people out there that have done that and think they got a kill with another weapon. I don't agree with the whole different earning medal thing like how u said u got the medal with 15, cause i got it with 13. Alright i made this way too long but mainly there are two reasons why getting medals can be difficult. One it could be the server location. And two it could be a miss read of how the other person killed. I believe that u got 15 kills but what i am saying is maybe 2 of them were not with explosives. Or simply i could be wrong, but if i am then a lot of others are too. Cause when I got basic i got it in a game with 2 other guys on my team who recieved it too at 13 kill WITH EXPLOSIVES (C4, Mines, Claymore). I got my medals, badges, and ribbons on the EA WC servers where i live so server location isn't a problem for me now.

[Blackangel]

ya, what he said.....:confused:

[-=AMC=-Slick]

In many Awards, Medals & Ribbons guides it says:

You are rated on several criteria, the ratings are:

Satisfactory
Good
Skilled
Outstanding
Excellent

What does this mean? Where can you see your actual rating?

[NEMESIS2K501]

I think the satisfactory, good and exellent ratings are how fast u complete the task, and how many mistakes u made in the attempt. There might be something esle but this ismy guess. I think the guide that EA sells in stores says how that thing works back in the badges section, how the satisfactory and that skill rating stuff works. Personally I thought the guide was pointless. It only tells u basics, doesn't tell u how to get medals, badges, and ribbons. It does tell u what rating in skill u need to get some of the ribbons, medals and badges. Besides that, I would not really focus on that right now cause it is going to get to ur head.
