(sorry to ninja the thread!)
Just started playin BC2 again online, what advantage would i have if i got Vietnam ? already have all the weapons.
New maps?
It's not hard to look this stuff up, but here you go: Vietnam addon
5 new maps, 15 era specific weapons, 6 era specific vehicles, as well as the addition of new awards and 10 new achievements/trophies.
Major differences from Battlefield: Bad Company 2
* Smaller maps designed to prevent long lines of sight, with the addition of a large amount of foliage and structures, make combat much closer.
* Subtle kit balancing.
* Weapon damage in general is increased.
* Lack of Red Dot Sight, 4X Rifle Scope and Sniper Spotting Scope as usable specializations.
* Era specific character models and character dialog.
* Addition of the Flamethrower as an infantry weapon and on tanks (replacing the Co-Axial MG for the Alternate Weapon Package), which can affect players and their surroundings alike.
One thing I wish they had dropped in Vietnam is Magnum ammo and Ceramic armour. It's a bit of a pain to have to drop a squad/loadout beneficial specialisation just to counter a bunch of players still not happy with the increased damage. Vehicle/infantry balance is a bit better too.
A bargain compared to COD map packs.
