    Maybe I just wasn't noticing it but does your rank and weapon progress only increase while playing conquest and not other modes?

    @adam914: It should be, provided you're playing on Ranked servers.

    What do you mean by rank, specifically? Just so I know you are talking about what I think you are talking about? Skill level, play level, etc?

    As far as I know but it should increase as long as you are playing on ranked servers

    As long as your playing on Ranked servers you'll be getting XP for whatever you do.

    You earn points toward rank and weapon progress in all modes, yes.

    All the objective points that are available in Conquest though, make it the fastest mode in terms of points per minute in my experience.

    Rush has much better SPM opportunities in my experience. Arming and detonating an MCOM is worth 600 points total, for example. Personally, I average at 500-600 SPM in Conquest 64, while I do 800-900 SPM in Rush. It comes mostly down to there being a constant frontline battle in Rush, while Conquest has you looking for a fight frequently.

    Yeah man, always use the browser. It's the ONLY way to play. :P Also, for weapon progression, like unlocks and such, play TDM. It's the easiest way to level up your guns.

    Then you are very good at Rush and apparently need a hug.

    Thing is there are 3-4 MCOMs usually? Where in Conquest you can earn points for the flag progress and caps over and over and for 5-6 flags per map. Plus more vehicle opportunities in general. The conquest matches last longer too, usually much longer for me. While SPM may be better for some players like you I guess who can dominate a Rush match, I think for the average player you're gonna easily get more points overall from Conquest matches.
