Merit Badges?

[Radant-J]

Not sure if any devs have touched on this yet, but will there be merit badges, or at LEAST some sort of achievement/reward system, like there is in PS1? I always loved getting the 400 kills of X-target, and then 10 in a row, and then earning a badass merit to show off my prowess. With so many games having achievements these days, one would think its pretty much a standard feature.

Higby said it will return and be much more robust

If your PS2 soldier could earn merit badges on a sash



But yes, I agree fully. It was a lot of fun getting merits, and provided a challenge to work for. Then you could show them off

You mean, like, for fire safety and pitching a tent and stuff?

If they do implement merit badges, there had better be a cool sash I can wear so I can show them off to my buddies.

EDIT: Zulthus and I are on the same wavelength here. I'm totally going for that lifeguard merit badge once they put water into the game.

Here's hoping for backpack mounted penants! Also the return of the Loser Merit.

I can't remember if anyone said that we will be able to display merits on our player avatars... Anybody able to confirm one way or another?

Maybe if you buy them from the cash shop, otherwise probably no.

There better be merits. It wouldn't be the same.

Buy achievements? Lol.

[Radant-J]

Buying achieves sounds like something EA would do, like how they recently decided to sell all the unlockable BF3 weapons for 50 bucks.

That's cool.

i don't see why they don't have a shoulder slot for ribbons liek the original...or put them on the chest like real military folk do...or put them on a sash for that matter. even though i really never paid attention to anyone else's i was really proud of mine.

Radar or Higby or and member of the PS2 team..

Will merits from PS1 transfer to PS2, I'd really like to have my six year merit (highest you can get) transfer over to show my dedication. I have has an account since early 2004
