Yeah, I play this game quite a bit. I think its fantastic. I usually play on ranked public servers, but I'll check out the servers in this thread. Being in a squad that works together is great fun.

I've enjoyed getting the different badges and ribbons, etc. I just got my veteran pistol and basic knife badges the other day -- in the same round. That was pretty cool. The "award" system is like a side quest in an RPG. Some of them are pretty tough. A good resource to understand award requirements is BF2S.

Mostly the awards are just a fun diversion. The best part of the game is playing with some people who are really interested in teamwork.

Post your screen name here. I'm "TigerJimmy". The My Leaderboard on BF2S can tell you where a particular player is playing. I'll search for you guys when I play and we can get in a squad together. Using the custom squad button, we can create an "empeg" squad, then it will be obvious which one to join!
