Hello SD, it’s great to see you adding more badges to the game, they’re super cool and fun to look at.
Except the ammo badges. I’m sorry, but getting 900 XP every time I spawn in is a little crazy. Maybe, just maybe, tweak it down a little? Just a teensy bit? Even 500 XP would be ok.
Thanks SD.

Don’t tell the pub nubs, they’ll start invading the min level 20 servers
On execution take arty/skybanner and give ammo packs. All ammo packs on market throwed to the entrance of left building= all ammo badges
You get ammo badges just for giving people ammo. If you have like 3 teammates that spawn with you, then you pretty much get all three badges.
Bronze is 150 XP, Silver is 250, and Gold 500, so total of 900 XP just for spawning in and throwing a pack around.
Not sure that I see an issue with this. Exp doesn’t mean much except to get access to ranked mode.
It sometimes gets to a point where I want to remove my ammo station because all the badges are getting annoying.
Considering the huge nerf that fire support exp got a while back, I think the availablility of more exp is good. In addition it encourage actually giving your team ammo, which is always a good thing.
Don’t see much of a problem with that, maybe its a bit pointless that some of the badges are tied to give out amount of ammo in 15 sek (I think), since that is pretty much only earned at spawn. But I don’t see much of a problem infact it is a very nice incentive for new players to drop that ammo not just for themself.
And thats one of the thing we all want right, people dropping ammo in places where the team picks them up.
XP gains will propably be adjusted anyways, if telemetry shows that suddenly the firesupport guys get more XP than the other classes. Afterall there are new badges for any class so I guess it will level out.

That is funny…because even with a ammo station I’ve only ever gotten total 3 gold ammo badges and 6 silver…so you’re exaggerating a bit.
I played Arty yesterday and I’m an ammo badge junkie now, please don’t take away my delicious badges. :’(
On the bright side, the shiny badges and XP rewards might help with the brain dead Skyhammer problem. Ammo for everyone!
Which is worse, fire support characters getting xp or not having ammo when you need it?
Huh please in matters of XP we will talk about ammo badges when the Aura situation will be settled because she is a goddamn Xp farming machine I dont see why medic should be able to get shitton of XP and not FS they deserves it just as much
Not having ammo when you need it for sure. I don’t care if fire support people get XP if it makes them more aware of the fact they need to ammo their team frequently. I find it to be a good move to motivate the frequent lazy, greedy, pathetically braindead fire support players. 
Wtf I haven’t been getting that @CCP115 . I use Arty all the time and soon as I spawn I throw everyone an ammo pack. Will double check tonight. But either way I agree it seems a little ridiculously high, but hey I’ll take it.
Badges are great and all but I played a match where a Skyhammer, level 5, had more exp than an Aura of level 12 or something.
If they don’t tweak the EXP at all then not a big deal. Just thought I’d point out how big of a jump this was.
Your level 5 Skyhammer was throwing ammo?!? Most low level Skyhammers don’t ever throw ammo, even when I specifically ask them for some (using their name) on voice chat.
Noooo… I finally have a reason to use these:

But yeah, it’s a bit too much
