I see theres ranks and awards and everything, but my question is is there unlocks

Unlocks are not used in the mod because the concept of getting a newer, or at least 'better' weapon for earning points on the battlefield is not very realistic. Welcome to the mod by the way :D !

It's also not very possible, but I guess that's not the point. :p

(hi, I'm new too)

hey elite ranger and e-gor (bf2 editor forums right? :) )
Ea stated in an earlier interview they were not at a position of letting mod teams use the unlock code as they felt it could lead to mis-use. (TotalBf2 interview if i remember). So sorry, thats a no on that one!

Like I said I'm new so I don't know if this is plausible or not. Is there a way to make it so you can pick a second for a class? I'm not saying unlocks, but maybe you could add things to weapons. Like lets say for spec ops for the marines you could add a front handle to lessen recoil. For the M16A2 you could let them pick the M16A3 this has full auto capabilites. These aren't better there just little variations of current weapons. Just an idea let me know if its plausible or not

There is no A3 anymore. There is an A4 but its not full auto.

I think it has better gameplay without them. You dont get any stat whores ect who only care about there own stats and nothing els.

Incentives like unlocks are self defeating as you only play for points to get unlocks and team is an afterthought.

I do think having class options would be cool. Like assualt could get the standard m16/m203 or you could choose an m16 w/aimpoint or some low power optic. Or MG class could use the saw or the m240. Things that would still be realistic but just tweaked to what you like.

My idea really wasn't for unlocks just for variations for more depth to the game. So is it possible to do what I said. And another thing you guys are worried about people playing just for themselves. Why not make rank requirements also have to do with maybe squad time, teamwork points, squad leader time things like that. I mean they have there own ranking system why can't they change it to something like that. So yea you could have the crazy solo killer guy still with a million points or whatever, but if he doesn't have the other requirements to rank he'll still be a private with a million points

I think what the devs will be doing is making a weapon selication so u can choose between like a m16 or a m4 or somthing.

That would be awesome to choose between the ACOG + silencer and the Aimpoint

SABOT is better against tanks. HEAT is better against infantry.
