ostheim Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 My question is, when i create custom missions in the editor, do they count towards my pilots rank gain when doing them? Or do i have to play the assigned campaigns?

ostheim Posted January 31, 2015 Author Posted January 31, 2015 Oh ok, yeah cause ive flown over 50 missions generated from myself in the editor and completed them. Have a full medal rack and score sheet but my rank is still Second Lt. lol
bolek Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 I believe rank is based mostly on hours. I think you get to be colonel at about 240 hours :)
wavn Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 Have flown a lot of selfmade missions with different profiles: my experience: - yes, you get medals and promotions by bombing and shooting ennemies, - you get more medals and promotions by good landing and few bombing / shooting as the way around. Best regards, Willem
LordWizard Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 (edited) Flight hours: 68h (considering its a bug and fast missions dont count in flight hours I might have more than 100h) Landings: 120 Ejections: 88 A-G kills: 142 A-A kills: 1104 Deaths: 179 Friendly kills: 11 Total score: 55654 Rank: Major I think rank is based on total score, I was promoted to Major at 50000 (se. Lieutenant it was at 20000 or 30000 im not sure...) Edited February 1, 2015 by LordWizard
