Armored service ribbon

[dbodenheim]

How the hell do you get this? Some people posted they have this ribbon. I have had top player games where I have scored 40 or 50 kills in a tank. Have scored at least 90 points in a ranked game in a tank. Had a killing streak of 19 peeps before I was finally shut down. This stupid ribbon eludes me. I am king of the tank and I want my just desserts. :)

I didnt know where to post this because it was in a different thread of a completely different topic.

Just tryin' to get the medic secondary since it's almost all I play. Something addicting about reviving people.




You cant get the medic secondary from reviving people. The only way you can get it is by Healing wounded players. I think you need either 5 or 10 heal points for satisfactory.

Addidtional question for those that have won Armored Service ribbon. (thats maybe Kossori and one or two more). Do you remember if you destroyed a crap load of tanks that round, like tank on tank combat. I've destroyed my fair share of other tanks, but Im not sure if I have destroyed more then 3 or 4 in a round. The exact wording of the award leads me to believe you need to destroy tanks in a tank. And a hell of alot of them.

I have the basic medic ribbon. I'm just talking about getting promoted so I can unlock a secondary weapon. For me, it'll be the medic secondary weapon since I usually don't play another class.

No way there is some missing variable here and I dont know what it is. I have spent entire rounds in tanks, have racked up 30+ kills, Have scored 80+ overall points, gold star, etc. I really dont know what Im missing. I wish there was some exact facts on what exactly you need to do. It says some general crap like Combat outstanding, or teamwork good. But no one knows exactly what that crap means.

A side note, I also think some ribbons are BS, like airborne. Parachute from 200 feet and get a ribbon. What crap is that? They could of at least of made you nuetralize a flag as you landed. That would be hard as hell but not impossible.

from what i can tell, there is a time based varible, somthing like 15 - 30 min(and for armour i think it's only tanks)

I cant say Ive survived 15 straight minutes in a tank. I guess Ill go get one, and then go hide somewhere ( lame). I can say Ive spent all but respawning time in a tank. So that time must not carry over.

basic is 10 kills in a single round as a class or in a vehicle

I'll check with my friend at EA for the rest of the info.. he was rambling it off last night

Something like

advanced = 200 total kills, and then another 15 kills in a single round

expert = 400 total.. then another 30 kills in a single round

I know my numbers aren't right.. but that is how it works.
