From the Zip file here is the exact numbers needed to rank up:

swiffHost.addRank 0 0 0 1 RANK_0
swiffHost.addRank 1 500 0 2 RANK_1
swiffHost.addRank 2 1000 1 3 RANK_2
swiffHost.addRank 3 10500 2 4 RANK_3
swiffHost.addRank 4 25000 3 5 RANK_4
swiffHost.addRank 5 50000 4 6 RANK_5
swiffHost.addRank 6 75000 5 7 RANK_6
swiffHost.addRank 7 150000 6 9 RANK_7
swiffHost.addRank 8 150000 6 9 RANK_8
swiffHost.addRank 9 250000 7 12 RANK_9
swiffHost.addRank 10 250000 7 12 RANK_10
swiffHost.addRank 11 250000 7 12 RANK_11
swiffHost.addRank 12 2500000 9 13 RANK_12

We figured it out, gaining 1,000 points per 12 hours (which is roughly the average) you would have to play 24/7 non-stop for 3.4 years to get the highest rank. Yeah I think they're going to be patching that. And actually just to get the third unlock you'd need to play 12.5 days total, and 125 days to get the last unlock. Eck.

Gorro, look for a 32 player server. I find the 32 Ranked Servers to be a lot better then the 64. Something about mass tank invasions and hardly any infantry bothers me.

After reading this post I am spreading the word, so many people let out a string of curses when they hear how long it would take to get the max rank.

I am sure EA will patch it... and make it take longer.

I'm putting together a group of dedicated gamers to go to EA's corporate office to present a logical and well thought out presentation of our feelings of how they are handling the ranked server business. The majority of the presentstaion wil be composed of everyone in the group removing their pants and taking a big smelly dump in the lobby of EA's office. The said dump may be picked up and thrown if a member of the group feels it to be prudent to presentation. Who's with me?

I am with the throwing of feces at EA offices and stuff... If I went into EA I would probably just end up punching every employee I encountered in the face for sucking so much.

LIES you are telling me if they(EA) put you up in a house, gave you a rocket machine, and said here, we will pay you $150,000 a year to TEST GAMES, you would say no, I would personally hunt you down, and kick you in the ass :D

:yuck: and I am sure, but it is still fun to poke comical gestures :jester:

As I stand by my beliefs... my grandpa smoked a pack of unfiltered cigarettes a day, and had his fair share of drinks a day(not to the point of alcoholism, but enough to feel good) now he is 90 years old, and still going strong, the smoking part I am not for, but I like my cocktails :thumbsup: :D [/b]

Thats why I say worry about your own stats not other peoples. Every online game, alot of the top players are going to be comprised of cheaters. Even in the professional world of CS most of the top teams do not care about online records near as much as when they are on a LAN. I'm not saying just because someone is good, they cheat. I'm just saying don't worry about anyones online stats except your own =)

personally they should have a time requirement as well as a score requirement for ranks(can't be in the military for a year and be sergant, shouldn't be able to play the game for a day and be sergant)

Once again you are mistaken, but I am sure you will tell me why you aren't
Army, Marines, and Navy (not sure about Air Force or Coast Guard) all have bands, if you join to be in the band you are required to have certain amount of formal training, depending on the amount of training, up to a BA in music you will get promoted to as high as E-6 after the completion of boot camp. I know you want to argue but don't, I used to be in a drill team in the Navy and met MANY band members. I am sure that since you are still in grade school you have NOT been in the military and have yet to gain any experience with people in the military; Much less the American Military. May I remind you that you are NOT an American and the last war that Canada participated in was WWII.
Thank you again for your interest in adding incorrect information to this post and may I bid you a good day.
Sincerely,

Yup, absolutly right Dink, had a guy in Basic with me, came out of basic and immediatly became an E6 pissed off the DI to no end that on graduation day, after the ceremony he actually had to be respectfull to the guy he just got through riding that morning. I was an E-4 Sr. Airman immediatly after my basic and advanced training due to my job, was a AFC immediatly after basic due to my time commitment of 6 year sign up, and I know Combat Control and EoD individuals who immediatly became E5 because it is required for their specializations.

But man I have to admit you are beating the hell out of bonez lately... Don't know if I find it funny, or am jealous because he used to be my whipping boy :).
