This is just a suggestion.

I have done my 100 kills (I recorded them using pen + paper) but still no message saying you need to do your 20 in a row, YES, some of them could be of the same person, but I could be 50 away, or 1 away, I don�t know. But the merit bored does not help. It constancy says "not qualified", but that�s in the progress bar, I have killed loads of different people so I am on my way to ADV BFR, shouldn't it show your kills?????

So, maybe the devs you change it to show your kills, or a % of what you have done???????

Any ideas?

The Merit System definately still needs to be worked out. Im not sure if it should be that detailed though. Maybe for some merits it will and others it wont like Exploration.

Right now I think that getting Adv. BFR is WAY to easy. Nearly 1 out of every 4 BFRs I see are flight/gunner varients. It should probably be more along the lines of 300 kills and then 40 in a row, IMO.

If it still says Not Qualified, you haven't gotten your 100. Once you get your 100 a message will appear in the middle of your screen telling you that you need to get 20 kills in one life to complete the merit, and your Progress window will no longer say Not Qualified for the Adv. BFR merit.

So either you made a counting error, or some of your kills that you counted were not acquired with the pilot weapons on a BFR.

its not counting error, i proboly got 20 - 30 double kills, not uneake. But shouldn't say how far you are, i could be 50 away, i could be 1 away, i dont know for sure.

I spent most of my time this weekend getting both of my characters imprinted and when I finally did get to take one out, I got like 3 kills. This is going to take time. A long time. It seems to me that for anyone who cant play 24/7 it is a reasonable distance away to qualify for the stronger BFRs. It would be nice if they could display a tally someplace. After all, some code is already keeping a tally anyways so providing a way to view that number cant be too difficult. I imagine it will be in an upcoming patch soon

The system is borked, you need 100 unique kills. I got 250 in one run in the caverns on test, not even worth my 100

And you're sure they were all merit kills, right? Meaning, if you've killed that person in the last 20 minutes, they don't count if you kill them again. Same with killing someone who's only been alive for less than 30 seconds.

I doubt the game is cheating, and while it's possible that it's a bug, it's more likely that it's an error on your part, as plenty of people are getting their Adv.BFR merits just fine.

hmm i think i am about 50 away from 3 days of trying, the BFR merit is not frendly to people that play 3 hours a day.

yer. I'm not saying the merit is bugged. I'm saying it should say how far you are from your 100 kills.

there needs to be a progress bar with details.

yes the progress bar does need work but remember the Merits are not fully out yet, it proble will be done and working when Merits fully come out.
