Ok, so I load up a local MP mission to get the lay of the land and a bit of stick practice in one of the mission Stompya wanted loaded up on the server I have.

I couldn't use any vehicle except for a plain hummer cause I was a private!?

Ok, soooo....what if I am just a private....I wanna play with the toys!

Is there a way to bump ranks to be able to practice in whatever you want or how do I get the ranks required to fly the attack choppers

Do I have to do the sp missions?

Sounds like you loaded up Evolution. Damn kool map. Just do some missions (one of the buildings centre of airfield will let you pick these) or go to nearest town (paraiso) and start clearing out the enemy. 10 points is first promotion, then you can drive other vehicles and recruit AI squad member. Once you have first couple of promotions it gets easieer to get points, better weapons, better vehicles, more AI squad members.

We have to sort our times so we can meet up for a game

The mission "Evolution" is the only one I know that uses ranks to restrict vehicles. Some other missions restrict vehicle access based on your selected role at the join screen (pilot, crew, engineer, infantry). But most don't have any restrictions and are first come, first served.

With the "Evolution" mission, you can either modify it to remove/reduce the rank requirement for a local MP practice, or do side missions (from misison HQ) to gain points quicker than you would attacking as infantry.

If you want to practice with any vehicles easily and quickly, I'd suggest using the 2nd 1.07 beta patch (or 1.06 if you have it) and checking out the new "Armory" feature.
