Just bought this game should arrive tomorrow, any suggestion bes place for a newbie
Maybe but it was the 64 player servers that made me buy the first few Battlefield games. Not bought one since BF2 though and was thinking of buying this for the Vietnam expansion but with only 32 players I doubt I will bother now. The smaller numbers and maps just don't interest me.
I see where you are coming from, BF2 was the best FPS ever until this game came along... but BFBC2 the maps are not really big enough to support 64 players, belive me, it would be a total meat grinder if it had 64 players per map.
Its better than BF2, but it has the same feel to it.
I will be interested to see what they do with BF3.
I would give bad company2, 9 out of 10, its just like bf2, but much slicker with more awesomer graphics.
Well it isn't better than BF2, it doesn't even come close, and the levels are far too small, some are okish, especially a couple of the conquest maps, but most are claustrophoic and cramped, and that is why it doesn't feel at all like BF2

Some fixes are coming for Bad Company 2 for PC, people!
Now.. we want to announce these first fixes we have made and let you know that these are just one part of a bigger list of updates that we are going to release very soon. This update will also require server downtime
This is what we can confirm for now:
One of the Insignia's requiring an unobtainable Bronze star for the tracer dart – requirement removed.
- Some hit box tweaks regarding latency
- A fix for blue screen text box issue which should affect all users with this problem
- 2 second spawn immunity, broken by moving/any action.
- 3D vision fixed.
- 2 second spawn immunity, broken by moving/any action.
Favourite weapon at the moment is SVU with Red Dot, or M24 with Red Dot. Great for mid-range, SVU is good up close but the M24 requires some getting used to.
