Ranks[]

There are 50 ranks in the game, all with different emblems and unlocks. Some unlock youweapons which you can then buy, others unlock you Skills to make your game that little bit easier, and as you progress through the ranks, you will start to get more rounds-per-match and the unlocks will tend to get gradually better until you are the highest rank. Note that experience does not apply beyond unlocking a rank, so if you get enough experience to unlock several ranks any experience beyond the first rank unlock will simply not apply. For example, as a rank 1 if you get over 1900 experience you will become rank 2, not rank 3, and your total experience will be reduced to 770. Until rank 10, winning one single-player match will rank you up. At rank 20 or so, you will begin to need to farm experience if you want to rank up any time soon. At rank 30 and up, farming is the only way that you will rank up.
