Dude, the server IS ranked. I got a bunch of new weapons on it. If there's a reason why you didn't get stuff, it'd be because of the connection problems everyone was having with the EA master server.
11 people are on it now, and I know others playing last night went up levels. I don't know about the frenchies :p.
I can't even log in right now.
Same, I'm getting a "multiple sign in" error. People on the EA forums are getting the same thing.
EDIT@15:55: Just logged in!
you lot on mumble now ?
Yeah we are. We've had a fun last few games :).
Not sure about the map "Levels/MP_008" though:

It's all snowy and annoying, I think I might remove it from the rotation later :p.
EDIT: Also, I think I'm going to add back Port Valdez, since that was actually a good map.
I can't fucking update the game, so godamn annoying.
That sounds like a bitch Phantom. Hope it works soon.
In the meantime, check out our new servers page!

I'm going to remove Nelson Bay soon.
Bad Company 2 - FAQ & Known Issues
Source
- Pings aren't showing in the server browser
- PunkBuster filter in the server browser doesn't work
- Server Name filter is case sensitive
- Server list doesn't always display all server
- Daemons for BC2 are not supported
- Server Descriptions / MOTD isn't displayed correctly
- What the the available settings for Bad Company 2 servers?
- How does reserved slots work in BC2?
Pings aren't showing in the server browser
Currently pings in the server browser use ICMP echo, which is often blocked by firewalls both on machines e.g. windows firewall and on routers. If your client isn't displaying server pings check to ensure that your firewall isn't blocked.
In addition windows Vista and Windows 7 users may need to run BC2 as an administrator to enable pings to work
PunkBuster filter in the server browser doesn't work
The filter option for PunkBuster in the server browser currently doesnt work, it always returns zero results.
Server Name filter is case sensitive
If you use the server name filter to find your server be aware that it is currently case sensitive so searching for "multiplay" will not return servers with "Multiplay" in the name
Server list doesn't always display all servers
There is a known issue that is preventing all servers being listed all the time in the server browser, the workaround is to refresh the list and if this doesn't help to restart your server
Daemons for BC2 are not supported
Due to security and other general problems related to running third party Daemons we will not be supporting them. All functionality that is provided by these daemons can be achieved in standard rcon based utilities so there's no real need for them anyway
Server Descriptions / MOTD isn't displayed correctly
Currently server MOTDs set in ServerOptions.ini -> ServerDescription don't display correctly, this is a bug in the BC 2 client
How does reserved slots work in BC2?
Adding players to the reserved list in Bad Company 2 is done by adding their player names to the reservedslotslist.txt one per line. Once added please note that when the named players arent in the server the number of available slots effectively be reduced by the number of players listed. So if you have 32 player server and 10 players in reservedslotslist.txt with 4 of those named playing your server will max out at 26 players, with only the remaining 6 players listed being able to join.
--------------------------------
Because of this last point, I have stopped using the reserved slots function until it works a different way. I have also updated the server to stream bans from punkbusted.com and changed the map cycle.
Just played on your server, was fun
Then... EA servers decided to die... not so fun... :(
Hey man, welcome to ATK community
Hi Hayt, glad you liked the server :).
If you have a mic come on Mumble some time and we can all play in the same squad.

Here's the final version Phantom did. It's now live on the server :D.
Thanks so much Phant!!
looks awesome, good job
teh pwnage.
Server down.
Also, can we try hardcore again? I'm starting to get annoyed with the amount of bullets it takes to kill people.
The server was down because of the following. It's up now.
In short, EA can't cope with the sheer amount of players, so told GSPs to shut off inactive servers after a couple of hours. Lame, I know.
As with hardcore, personally I don't like it purely because of not being able to spot people and not use the map. It only really benefits snipers imo, which there are already too many of.
screw hardcore, just fire in bursts. As long as you don't empty your entire clip on full auto, you'll do fine.
Plus it's a game about teamwork rather than kills. :p
Its like impossible to kill people on normal you have to hit them soo many times, but yes it does encourage more teamwork
...i'm getting so sick of this "you need to hit them thousands of times" crap.
AIM. BURST FIRE.
BC2 is NOT modern warfare 2. The weapons are a LOT less accurate. If you fire SINGLESHOT, and HIT your enemy, you will kill them in a few shots.
Once again, firing an entire clip on full auto will not work. Need proof? check the scoreboards when we play together.
Bravo DK. From what I've played, my bang duck bang duck bang duck OMGLOL seems to be more effective than clicking the fire button every millisecond

And for those of you doubters, this is the scoreboard from a game I joined halfway through.
None of those kills are grenade launcher kills, one of them is a pistol kill. The rest are pure M4 kills. The weapons work fine, it's just you're not using them right.
And that's the end of that chapter.
