I could really do without the damn stars. My accumulated eight year stash of perk points is reward enough.

I was muted by the community for speaking excessively of achievement pride so be careful about bragging. :old:
Under achievers and those without said star(s) seem to lean more towards envy than admiration. :old:
May those without star, graduate, one day, to be among us that have earned said star(s). :old:
It only takes around five under achievers to report you resulting in said muting. :old:
I have earned at least thirty achievements already and they were fun. :old:
Measured achievement is better than unmeasured achievement. :old:
I'm proud of my star and hope for a gold star, one day. :old:
May each of you achieve more in the future. :old:
Be proud of your achievements. :old:
Good luck to all. :old:

:cheers:

I watch day after day, week after week, tour after tour, the Bishops and Rooks take bases and win maps while the Knights stand there with their thumbs stuck in their butts. It's just pathetic!

I think it is based upon the total number of achievements you have.

According to the forums, 90% of players hate achievements... however, in game, of players actually... playing... 90% seem to appreciate them =)

Everyone cries about jumping a jeep... have you even tried it?  It's not like it's a gimme... and the best part is, it's very easy to avoid if you detest it so much.

Kill a perk ride, get a pilot hit, down X enemies in one run...  all good things.

Eleventh word in your first post. "Skill." Your last line amounts to an excuse for posting, but in reality you are whining like a little school girl. Very little of the game has anything to do with history except the type of aircraft and vehicles used.

Ranks and ribbons? Are you kidding me? You whine about shiny and that is how you want to "fix" it?  :rolleyes:

Rank or ribbons make more sense than pre-school-like gold stars.

What ever happened to perks??

Can we opt out of the acheivments thingy with a check box in it's menu that says: {X} no thanks

Is their by any chance an (achievments.cfg) file I can set (1) to (0) like in the (skins.cfg) to enable\disable skns downloading..

Half the time I forget to look in the text buffer anyway.

Now if you could earn free bottels of scotch or wine or buffalo steaks or replacement springs and pots for your CH gear. Or a magazine subscription from some advitisor on the HTC home page........or an evening flying wingman with Hitech, Pyro and Skuzzy. Or for one 24 hour day in a tour any fighter you fly will have the lazor shark as it's skin. Or you win a day's access to a beta arena to play with new toys in development.........

Achivements. Give me some kind of bling or Kadushy Panda Awsumness toy for a day.

they're still there, and a person would earn a lot of them by actually doing the achievements.

Now if you say you never got air time in a jeep until this achievement system came into place I doubt many would believe it.
