Nice. I already knew about most of the stuff that was discussed on there, but some of it I have yet to hear about. Can't wait for the game and I hope it exceeds my expectations.

"Elite rank will take 1/3 of the time it took on Vegas 1"
This has me hoping for a rank beyond elite!

Too bad it takes 1/3rd of the time, but at least now there will be less people going to play T-hunt to get those points only nerds will do it now.

<span class="ev_code_RED">Elite might be quicker (400,000XP) but this time around elite is only clothes, camo visual stuff. The weapons are what people will try to rank up for and the A.C.E.S look like they could take awhile as you only get a few points 1-3 for each one and you don't get them for every kill or action i have seen some challenges needing 1200 Aces points</span>

OK. You don't have to mark all your posts with red!
It's annoying to read it like this.

how do you know how many points it requires to get to elite???

He divided the number of points it took in Vegas by 3?

That's kind of a letdown. Elite was the only thing that made me so hooked to Rainbow. After I got it, everything just became so pointless and less fullfilling.

It's sad that the only enjoyment that you got out of the game was watching the little bars go up under your name. Maybe you should reexamine why you play games and ask yourself why you play if at all you don't enjoy the game itself.
