also thin k about some minor changes for the badges.
most players reach silver combat ages before they got admiral.
when you set badge XY as a requirement for this ship, it's nearly senseles because most players got it during their regular playtime... only the rank is holding them...

i agree with sunshine, for example i'm ViceAdmiral, have all badges and so i just wait to become FleetAdmiral to get stations (whose sense is not so clear after new station-structures) - maybe there should be a platinum badge for all "elite" ships, not every ViceAdmiral shouldbe able to use a M410, they are not all equal in skills, and same for UTGO, the "Elite Assault Dread" shouldn't be a "standard" ship.
Maybe it should be possible to change more gadges on smaller ships with higher ranks, better than giving everyone a better killermachine.

As I mentioned in the other forum where this was brought up. It sounds like you would like to see the badge requirements made tougher. Am I correct?

I am not sure how well this would be recieved. I would like to see it possible to gain Fleet Admiral before you are able to gian all the gold badges. Not a hard limit to the badges you could get per rank, but rather a major increase in the difficulty in receiving each badge.

That and I have seen people with 1RA that registered a week ago. That seems just slightly too fast to me...
which should be reduced by making bombing harder and such... but yikes.
I do think it should be easy enough to get up from the first rank or two, since nobody wants to be a middy all their life, but the speed some people rank up is ridiculous. I just feel bad for the poor gaifens, or something...

Yes, players seem to increase in ranks far too fast, and then level out about 1st Rear and Vice. They should be leveling out at about Commander and Captain. Either the ranks could be spread across much larger areas of prestege, or the penalties for failure at the higher ranks could be much higher. Either way, we are stumbling into an area that will anger many players. Either they will be angered by the increased penalties, or they will be angered by the increased requirements (and the subsequent reduction in players ranks from that).

I think the badge system is just fine as is. And any tweaking on the Rank system should be minor...

Add a "Platinum" level badge say at 10,000 points in any area. Something to strive for...

agreed, some more would be nice, but
- 5000 to platinum (transport 500)
- 10'000 to diamond (transport 1000)
and, urgently - in my eyes
- a scout - badge
btw. what happen to the Medal of Bravery, the Medal of Valor and the Medal of Conquest??
