mayby it's yet to be inplanted

havent read every post but the requirements for expert command need to amended to 30 mins in a round after reaching 10000 points.played 1 round today for 27:49 as commander no badge next round it cameupright on the 30 minute mark. hope this helps, did time by stopwatch so is accurate.

The SF ribbons are mostly wrong in UBAR. Atleast those where the amount of time is the issue. According to UBAR, I have passed the time limit for those 6 ribbons but I have none of them.
I got the armoured service ribbon, so I assume those four at the end of the row are correct.

Hi, Id just like to say great job with the site and that I've never had a problem with it in all the time i've been using it - however for what its worth I think the Basic Air Defense badge is a 10 minute one and not 5.

I had been trying to get it for a few days - sitting in every kind of AA platform there is for more than 5 minutes and wasnt getting the award. I was getting just a little annoyed so I grabbed a stopwatch to make sure I was actually spending 5 minutes in the AA platforms but to no luck.

So yesterday I was on on Daqing - not aiming to get Air Defense or anything, just playing normally - in a Linebacker that lasted 4 minutes, spawned and grabbed it again. I played a bit more and suddenly it was awarded much to my suprise - so I looked at my stopwatch and it had been almost exactly 10 minutes of using the Linebacker; so IMHO think that UBAR is wrong on this? That said every other site listing the requirements has it as 5 minutes so perhaps EA/Dice have slipped up on publishing the requirements?

Btw Basic Ground Defense Badge from my experience is 5 minutes after timing that one as well , so perhaps some confusion of the timings has happened between the two?

Anyone else back me up on this?

Thanks

When the Mid East and Far East Ribbons require 250 global hours why do I have them and many others too?! (Username TC><Injecter)

nope....for the zip you can hit the same building, floor, roof, whatever (you don't even have to use it just deploy it), and I have confirmed it is 3500 uses for the vet badge (what a waste of time to confirm)

Now the tactical is another issue, I have been keeping track (for conformation purposes) last night I threw 1150 teargas nades (and before that I think I used around 1000 more, I just didn't "count" them), and I didn't get the vet badge, so there is something else involved on this one....if you know please tell me.

Where does how many zip lines, flashbangs and hooks thrown show up on your profile??

It doesn't you just have to keep track some how.....no fun at all

I have found a german site, where you can see the usage of these things.

I did a little bit of analysis into these awards and found that players, once they hit that 250 hour mark, can have as litle as 18 hours in a certain 'Theater" and still be given the ribbon for that theater. This leads me to believe that the ribbons are something like: 250 global hours and 15 hours in a theater. However, I can't actually verify that, it may have something to do with kills or wins in a theater or something entirely different, so I don't post it.

I have both ribbons, and have had them both for a while. I currently only have 13 hours MEC and 7 Hours China, and 63 hours global. I got the China ribbon at about 5 hours and the MEC ribbon at about 10 hours. I thought maybe it was based on your score IAR...

the grappling hook, zip line, and flashbang badges in special forces, require you to use them 10x IAR, not 10x overall.
Not sure if this has been posted or not, didn't really want to sift through 9 pages of posts, soz.

I played sf, for a few weeks, having atleast 10 overall zips, flashes, grapples etc... and no award and as soon as i go to a remote part of map and just fire 10 ziplines off one after the other i got the award straight away, i'm pretty sure its 10x in a round for the basic badges and then overall for the vet and expert badges.
Sorry if it seems like i'm being an asshole, but i'm just making my point.

I have played 6 hours as SPETZNAS and i have not recived this ribbon

SPETZNAS Service Ribbon  = 5 hours of play

I believe it requeries 50-60 hours of time played with Spetznas.....

Most people get the ribbons, when they reach this time-limit, but I have seen stats-profiles, where people had played for over 70 hours, but didn't have the ribbons.... So there is an other requirement we don't know about..

Definately not 50 seeing as I have 20+

I believe the requirements are 20 hours(not sure if it's 20 but thats around when I got it) and a best round of 100+
I recieved mine after I got a score of 100, in warlord for SAS. However it did not display when I got it. It just appeared in my profile.

Just something for you to look into.


also on a second note I don't think that you can recieve a veteran badge that requires time if you have not met that time requirement by the begining of that round. Seeing as after 25 kills I checked BFHQ (while in-game) to see why I had not recieved it yet. In BFHQ it listed I had the required 15 hours, so I continued playing the same kit in-game and ended up with around 40 kills IAR(all anti-tank), however no badge. The next time I played and got 20 kills iar I got it.

This also means that the server has to recognize that you have the time before the round starts. in otherwords if you got it the end of the previous round, and you continue on in the same server then the server possibly could not have those stat hours retrieved.

Ok enough SF bullshit, this is something more pertinent.

Crew Service Ribbon:

Are you SURE the special ability point is required?

I got it on my brother's account today (lordoroxor) go check it out. 13  assists, check. 5 kills. check. Both the gunner and I were special ops. No special ability whatsoever.
