This would be more of a measure of free-time you have to fly.  Even a 6 year old would get 600 proxies eventually.

I would like to add another rank, which I feel me and most of my squad could acquire fairly easy: Senior Aviation Wreckage Salvager. Would require 600 augers within a single tour to be qualified.

As it is rank and score need to be removed from this game now. Remember its all about the combat anyway :cheers:

No to this idea. Rather silly, I think.

I think it would add a lot of immersion if there were some sort of long-term ranks to achieve, similar to other online shooter games.

Something like:

Airman- 0 kills
Airman First Class- 5 kills
Senior Airman- 15 kills
Staff Sergeant- 30 kills
Technical Sergeant- 50 kills
Master Sergeant- 75 kills
Senior Master Sergeant- 105 kills
Chief Master Sergeant- 140 kills
Second Lieutenant- 190 kills
First Lieutenant- 250 kills
Captain- 320 kills
Major- 400 kills
Lieutenant Colonel- 490 kills
Colonel- 600 kills

You could then display on the player tags. Thoughts?

Thank God this game is completely UN-like other "online shooter games"

I'm thinking about what rank Dr7 would have with his more than 200,000 kills...  His Unfathomable Holiness the Grand Emperor of the Universe?  :uhoh

Howabout

first year player = Flight Officer
second year player = 2nd Lt.
third year player = Lt.
fourth year etc. etc.

See where I'm going with this?

Rank by seniority, kills don't count.

Afterall, rank doesn't always mean you're good. History proves that.

Sorry, I just couldn't resist tossing this in. Must be the beer.   :old:

-1 to the idea, but you could make it more workable by having average # of kills per tour rather than just the sum of all kills. Even then it would be skewed heavily by GVs and people who can get several thousand kills in a tour by spawn camping.

You talking bout me BRO?  :D
