Battlefield Veteran is a rewards scheme for owners of various installments in the Battlefield Series.
It is currently calculated by adding the number of all an owner's
registered games together minus one. This does not include demos, betas,
expansions and booster packs, although they can still be registered for
show.
Battlefield 3 is the fourth game in the series to use the Battlefield Veteran system. If someone has played an older installment, they can receive the M1911 pistol in the game along with the tactical and suppressed varients by registering for Battlelog which will then automatically register all games associated with their EA Origin account. The only other way to unlock the weapon was to be a member of the EA Gun Club though the site has since been closed down. Any installment that is registered will also reward a veteran with a unique Dog Tag per game.
Unlike other installments, Battlefield 3 does not display a player's "Veteran Rank" on the scoreboard or leaderboards. It is, however, displayed, on a person's Battlelog profile.
