So I just got out of a several hour long game session with NS and Milk Man. I made it up to a Silver Staff Sargent rank or something like that. I got 9 of 12 achievements. During this session 3 of us were in a squad and we were making sure to get top squad on every occasion possible. We went through the map rotation about ten times or so, and with the fact that it plays each map several times we're rather certain we got top squad on each. After about an hour wondering why we weren't getting it, we made sure to pay attention.

After confirming we got top squad on every map and still not getting the achievement. I got frustrated and decided to drop to the main menu to check my stats screen.... nothing... no rank listed, no awards earned.... absolutely nothing. At this point I was in a panic. I rejoined the game, no rank.

So here I am now ranting about it while I redownload the game in the hopes it might have just been a bad download.

They're having major server issues, nothing to do with the game client.

OK, NS had the same thing happened to him. He just checked the game and his rank/awards were fixed. Just checked mine and they are back as well.

The quality of the game has nothing to do with the servers. EA DICE had expected so many people to be purchasing the game and had enough if not more than enough servers to handle that load. When the game was released they did not expect thsi many people to be buying and trying to play the game. More people than they had projected bought the game and they were not ready for it, nor were they expecting it. So they had to scramble to get more servers added and up and running until everyone could play.

The game is a lot of fun and they just got the servers all fixed a few days ago. Ive had no trouble getting into games for the last 2 days
With everything presented, I believe Im the only one that was not impressed by MW2

Well I don't understand then, I purchased this game after successfully playing the demo once. Upon upgrading to full release I've not been able to do so.

You should be able to get on now, the server issue has been fixed up. If you cant, then idk what to say. Maybe its your connection?

I've still been having trouble getting on servers, albeit far less. Trying for a few minutes usually results in getting in a game.

Ha finally! I have finally got on to a server. Had to spend an hour on the phone and reDL the game from Microsoft to get it to work tho, and neither the tech guy or I know why that would have fixed it - but I don't care so long as it works. And I gotta say sweet game. Really dig'n it!

Glad you enjoy it. Once you know how all the classes work, and can use them to the fullest, the game gets much more fun. Best tip, play as each class and see what works.
