Overall rank has not changed from 1 since I started game

The star cards really don't augment the single player experience much at all. They are usable in arcade, but truly aren't really needed. They see completely inapplicable in the campaign... As the cards are provided for you to choose from already there. So although you do need game rank to craft the higher levels of cards, unless you are playing multi-player, it's rather moot... Because you don't really need them how you're playing the game. This isn't KOTOR or other stand alone SW title. This game is designed and meant for multi-player. Just like the battlefield games are... Just like COD games are. Unfortunately, it seems you're in the wrong genre. It'd be like me buying some city and being upset that I can't play as one of the Sims in GTA style on the streets. It's not meant to be that kind of game. I'm sorry that it's turned out for you this way. I think it's * you have to pay all the extra money to whoever on consoles just to play games online....I don't even own a console, pretty much because of that aspect. I've been in PC land for many years. I hope you can get into the multi-player sometime for this game. It's really fun.... When the game isn't crashing lagging, and locking up. I'm really hoping EA gets it fixed up incredibly soon.
