Poll: ****Official Battlefield Bad Company 2 Thread*****

[mithrandir]

Are my team, squad and objective scores any good?

Also why is my skill level usually 0 but I'm sure I've seen it at 100 odd

 

[DisrupTor75]

I dont know if anyone else here has seen this yet but just watched this onn YT and had to share

fantastic stuff! love the chorus!

"Gonna take more than Black Ops to drive me away from you
Ain’t nothing that a million C4 Whores could ever do
Let’s bring the pain down in Arica
While we’re at it let’s tear them a new one on Port Valdez Too"

skill level seems to randomly jump about to any ****ing number from -200 to + 200 but mostly 0 i don't think anyone knows what it's for or if it works.

Hate assault by the way, just not that easy to get kills as it is with sniper/engy or medic.

Thompson + C4 + extraC4 + explosive damage = Rush winner + kill-streak

 

[Tefal]

you're assault you should change extra c4 for lightweight as you've got an ammo it.

Thompson + C4 + extraC4 + explosive damage = Rush winner + kill-streak

-They're better weapons than the Thompson.
-I don't see the point in getting C4 over a Grenade Launcher, unless your good at long range throws with C4.
-Extra C4 is pointless when you have an Ammo Kit.
-Explosive damage is relatively pointless as explosive damage is good enough by default.

 

[Evilsod]

For protecting an armed MCOM nothing beats C4... but then again nothing beats C4 for accidently suicide/damage leading to an early death.

Before you do anything, switch to DirectX 10 and DirectX 9 to see if it crashes.

Managed to play for a couple of hours last night without problem. Before playing I removed the OC from the graphics card, so tonight I will put that back on and see if I get crashes again. If I do then I'll try other versions of DirectX as you mentioned.

Still can't get the hang of throwing the c4.

When I use the Tefal method it falls at my feet.

Is there any vids kicking about of how it should be done?

Seen one on Youtube but they didn't jump during the throw as Tefal mentions.

Ohh and thanks for the adds on BC2, good to see people playing that know what they are doing and helps me get better (although I'm still cack compared to them)

Will probably add a few more after looking through this thread.

I see you switch to the winning team A LOT.

Good for you.

Crap, those console players seem to be half-blind, they literally run past him and don't notice that he's taking out half of their team?

 

['Wes]

My wins and losses are:

Wins:
355
Losses:
375

Be a man and stick with your team, don't be cheap.

Why do stats mean so much to so many? I mean really, I didn't buy this game to tally up stats ;/

10hrs with the GL!

I don't think they do?

It's good to monitor your progress sometimes, I spend **** loads of time with this game (in my eyes) and still have hundreds less hours counted in game than most others. I didn't care much about MY stats until recently, I can easily see what I'm effective at and where I fail.

The key really is to not full auto fire, keep tapping the button to fire 1/2 shots at a time. Get the hang of it and you can out-snipe recons

They assault is a really versatile kit being able to swap out for a shotgun and use C4 while keeping the ammo box for resupplies, 40mm smoke for cover and diversions. Gives more options than Recon in my opinion

If you don't jump you don't get any height on it. Unless flicking your view up as you throw genuinly makes a difference and isn't just something i do for the feel of it and as a placebo effect. All you do is start the throw then jump so it gets thrown as you move upwards.

Its a great tactic since most drivers are completely unaware of the ability to chuck C4 (and there isn't much you can do to stop it anyway) and its great for blowing people out of rooftops and 2nd floor windows, especially it goes through the window

 

[Squark]

It's also a handy tactic for getting ammo/med boxes to team-mates

 

[scamartist]

The few times I have managed to throw it a decent distance I reckon I flicked the mouse as I threw it.

So that may not be a placebo effect after all.

Will get myself onto an empty server and practice away.

Will be good to be able to throw it onto buildings.

i like stats as i wanna know im improving, my k/d is semi important to me, but i will happily die for the team and often die when c4'ing a tank!
