Just bought this game should arrive tomorrow, any suggestion bes place for a newbie

if you want to rank your level + kit level quickly spawn as the class you want to rank then find a dead higher level medic, and pick their kit up, you'll get a good gun and loads of points if you defib + heal your teammates.

and best of al lthe points you earn with your aquired medic kit count to wards you original clas :d

so you can rank your assault/engi really quick.
 
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

Indeed its not better & there are too many deliberate choke points, its still a fun game though.

This is what puts me off. Smaller maps change things like the speed of the game play. I loved the big 64 player maps of the 1942 etc because it meant you really felt like the battle would move around covering lots of different terrain without it ever getting dull trekking miles to get there. offering you the opportunity to play the game slightly differently if you wanted.

I would often play as an engineer and go hide in random parts of the map and lay mines in places the opposition just never expected it and I suspect little things like this would be lost on the smaller set up Bad Company.
 
i cant stand packed games, i always play on a max of 24, i prefer sqaud rush or a good 16 player server... no skill involved in full on games its just crazyness
 
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.
 
I love this game, but I havent found a gun im comfortable with.

COD2 = mp40 (think that was its name)
COD4 = AK47 or M40

BFBC2 = so far only gun I ok with is the M60.....

Tried the MG36... its ok for certain things, but upclose, you get owned.

The assualt rifles...... the AN94 im ok, sometimes, but again, the gun lets you down in certain situations... the M416 nice, butthe short clip, means that whilst im reloading, bang bang im dead.

So The only gun that fits me inperfectly is the M60, large clip, decent accuracy, big power.... but still doesnt feel right.

M60, stopping power or accuracy perk??

With engineer the UMP is nice, but will again let you down.

Any thing/tips you can think off that based on what Iv said above you think Im overlooking?

I think you must be using them wrong, the M60 is complete overkill.

My favourite assault guns are the XM8 and the M416, burst fire and single shot tap firing for range works a treat.

All the Engy guns are great, but you have to fire sparingly, because they lack ammo.
They're SMGs so use them as such, they're not meant for long range shooting (though sniping headshots with the Uzi is awesome) Up close firing automatic they can beat an assault rifle to the kill

I don't notice much difference between the medic guns an ymore, but the MG36 is the one I go for, the red-dot sight is great for placing headshots on everyone
 
Anyone else getting problems connecting to "Some" servers since the usual EA tuesday server updates

For most of the servers I get "connection to the game server has been lost, please check your connection and try again"

Cant even get on our server or beer drinkers :(
 
Played my first game today of BFBC2, and must say its being a long time since I enjoyed a game so much...got a ass wooping on the first map. second went to sniping and ended 9/3 good fun ..just need to learn the maps.

The spawn killing while still in chute is crap.

Nooooooo, if you spawn on your squad/get revived **** it you should ,vulnerable from the start, it's so annoying when you're attacking someone and their immortal mate appears next to them and survives to kill you.

Spawn in base = yes have spawn immunity, spawn on squad you should be vulnerable.
