Its Really nice to see the ranks going up so quickly and access to the other unlocks is brilliant.People are using the shotguns alot more and it changes the game quite a bit,Karkand with a DA0-12 is a terror.  :D

Been able to see who is in your vehicle is a great feature too.

Aye the new ranks are a little nuts. Still was gratifying shooting two people and going up a rank each time ;)

The map labels rock. Also the tactics for helis are now very interesting - drop the squad, maybe orbit slowly giving cover fire, then swoop in just as the flag is taken to pick uip the squad again. I really enjoy doing that.

Also wake island is nasty nasty.

They way it is I don't think you were getting a rank up per kill I think it was just taking you up to your new rank depending on your global score
