So the first thing I will cover is the tallies. So you can get up to 5 tallies and once you get all 5 you will get blue eyes if you have a skull rank. You gain a tally each day you play, so you need to play 5 days in a row for blue eyes. You lose tallies if you stop playing everday. You do NOT need to have blue eyes or 5 tallies first to rank up to your next emblem. I witnessed my friend go from the knife rank to the shotgun rank while he had 4 tallies.

Now for the actual ranking up, none of us know for sure but I have things to add in. I got my knife rank at a 95 KDR around. The game I got it from was a solo game at farm that I got to round 30. Yesterday I played survival with 4 people and we got to about round 24 only. My friend went from the knife rank to shotguns and he played decent but it wasnt a reaaally good game. I checked his KDR and it was around 96 and I checked mine and it was 100, and I also have more than double the kills than him and dont have shotguns, i pretty much just got my knife too. He also said that since he got online he played every map and game mode at least once which might mean something.

So overall I think to rank up you gotta play well and maintain a decent KDR (not get a lot of downs) and also get to decent rounds and play full games. Comment with some more thoughts or things you've noticed.

No it is downs or everyone's ratio would be stupidly high, deaths is for multiplayer, downs is for zombies.

Don't believe me?
Compare your kills to downs then kills to deaths, you'll see the death ratio alot higher >.>

I've been trying to figure out the ranking system too, my KDR is over 10k because I wiped my stats, got my bowie back over a week ago.

I figured it has something to do with getting high rounds (hence the people that used the round skip glitch in Tranzit to get to round 200+, got shotguns)

I defeated!
So in theory if I get over 1000 kills per game tranzit and not get any downs eventually I get shotguns.

Unfortunately, no, there's more to ranking than KDR, nobody has been able to clearly state what it is yet, because the developers are keeping quiet about it.
Not such a bad thing, if we all knew the exact conditions then everyone would have shotguns and it wouldn't be worth obtaining compared to now.

i do think it has to do something with k/d, i mean i got my shotguns at a 200k/d ( when counting deaths, not downs!)
i mean i barely go to high rounds since it is just boring on tranzit imo, but anyways sometimes i just get a lot of kills, hardly go down but rarely go to high rounds, yet i have shotguns...you can add me if u want on PS3 and then u can check :p

I believe you, but as I said, there's more to it because my ratio is over 10k atm, but you've most likely got more revives, headshots, grenade kills etc etc than I have.

As I said, I wiped my stats over a week ago so your definitely higher on stats than me XD

in general, the ranking is represented and influenced by everything ( perks, doors, miles, kills, deaths, downs etc)
but i guess thats something everyone knows by now :p
