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

Epic moment for me the other night where I was panning the T-90's main gun trying to pick off an Apache with the alt. fire machine gun, over-compensated and accidentally fired the main gun and saw the shell arc in the air and a direct hit resulting in a double kill. My face: :eek:
 
Finally completed SP this weekend! Have to go back into it on Hard for the trophy. Some good parts but overall short, similar to MW2!

Also on MP before I managed to destroy my own m-com by taking down the building, but I managed 400pts for killing about 6 people inside :p
 
Can the UAV fire a machine gun? I'm sure i've seen it firing bullets, but every time i've used it i can only fire rockets?

I tried the single player round a mates house a few days ago. I was actually quite blown away by it and thought it was brilliant! Just finished the 3rd mission and things are plodding away nicely, I especially love the effort gone into the cut scenes. Stylish, atmospheric, funny and a pretty decent script all-round.

V ALT W is your friend :D

The UAV gets a minigun when you add the V ALT W Vehicle Specialisation. It's not particularly useful on softcore, as it has such low damage, but can be used to finish off people who've sponged the hellfire missile, although i find the warheads package more useful than having to hit them again with no splash.

The UAV should be focusing on staying up and taking out vehicles when they spawn, not focusing on infantry, spot the target and let your footsoldiers take them out, only fire on infantry when they're holed up camping a route or you have a guaranteed multi-kill :)

Is this worth buying even at full price?

Have to say, although I only paid £15 (gift voucher from Christmas), I would have definitely paid full price, it's a lot of fun, whether on your own or with a few friends. I haven't played MW2 much at all since getting it (probably should, for moneys worth...though).
 
Bah my bad games on quick matches continues :(. 4 games last night (9vs3 , 9vs2, 12vs5 and 12 vs 6). And yes I was on the low size teams. The 9vs2 on conquest was crazy (if I've been on mega unbalanced like that I stop playing and wait for more to join or eventually leave) - they put 4 on our deployment and then stuck the rest on flags. Funny how the next game some of them left when the teams evened up.
I felt like sending a message giving the lead guys (who were clan tagged) abuse.

Sometimes you wonder if people understand the game aswell. I'm not saying I'm a great player or anything but it doesn't take a genuis to work out that if a clan squad on the oppo side decides to come camp and rape your deployment that you need to try and clear them out.

I've had the odd great moments recently but mostly garbage (2 of us recon on a hill alternate marking and shooting in the same squad was great - was like duck hunt).

Do you get any points if you leave a game part way through?
 
How do I parachute when jumping off a building. Was trying all sorts of button presses last night until I go tired of committing suicide :D

PS3 versions.

PS - had an absolute blast on this yesterday for hours. I seriously can't believe how much more fun I am finding it compared to the PC version. I just can't stand mouse and keyboard any more :D

Press jump :)
 
ffallic said:
I am so sure I did that...

so if I jump off, I just keep holding jump?

Funny thing is, I had this problem on PC too - just couldn't get it right!

Just press it again after you've jumped.....holding it down after the jump wont work......I just mash that button like there's no tomorrow :D

I thought it was a double tap of the jump button once you have left the building/falling. Seems to work for me!

Its just single tap but no ones ever dared to try it!

no seriously though on XBOX its defo just a single press I know because I've tested it myself :) I still double tap though :D

Maybe I am pressing it too early then, hence why I double tap. It's almost like the game doesn't quite realise you are falling stright away. I tried single tap, but ended up splatting the floor. Almost as if you have to fall for a short distance before the parachute can be deployed.

Still, better to be safe than sorry. Double tap it is!
 
I do wish in games like this there was some sort of mechanic to stop the opposition from entering your deployment area. Would make the more uneven matches be a bit more interesting when you at least have a chance to form a team and have a go at the closest flag. When you have an attack copter and a tank in your spawning area you kind of wish you had not connected to that particular session.
