Re: How to get Battlefield Veteran status easily?

Since the M1911 is the veteran weapon you must have a Battlefield veteran status of 1 or greater to access it. That means that you've played BF3 and at least one other Battlefield game while logged into your Origin account. You can get veteran status by playing one of the free web based Battlefield titles such as Battlefield Heroes http://www.battlefieldheroes.com/en/ or Battlefield Play 4 Free http://battlefield.play4free.com/en/ while logged in with your Origin account. These two titles will give you veteran status as well.  Be advised that you must actually play the game and not just sign up or download the game to get credit for your veteran status.
