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

Have started to play this again after being too busy to do it, but I can help but notics lots of bugs, some game still seem to just hang, or you just get cut off suddenly in the middle of a game...is EA STILL having probs with the servers for this game..also at times the ladscapes break, some spots with the high mag scope and the landscape goes all over teh place..teh weapons seem badly balenced now as well, i was getting killed with Uzis with silencers from 100s of yards away...

Would love to get in on a proper squad game if anyone would like to addy me (cu3ed), it amazes me how many medics and such jsut dont throw down ammo or health packs etc, even if its just for the sake of it!

Yh especially MW2 where a lot of maps are smaller than my garden...and I don't really have a big garden :rolleyes:

I find BC2 has a lot more opportunity for variety and tactics, whereas MW2 you can only really do the same things over and over to get the job done. :o

MW2 maps are comparatively small, but most are easier to play regardless of your team due to the circular layouts. Breaking though some of BC2s choke points feels like ground hog day.
 
I really wish they would increase the squad sizes or at least make it so you can talk with other squads. I always find we have six people and two people have to play on their own with only message chatting available.
 
My VIP code has already been used :(

I've entered it EXACTLY as it is on my little 'slip' I get with the game, with caps and the - but it says its invalid/registered already

gutted :(

Well thats where the challenge comes to try and work as a team and utilise whatever is available to you, trying different tactics. Some of us like it and its this variety and challenge that makes me think MW2 is over-hyped averageness :o
 
started playing this again recently. love it. much more excited about the vietnam expansion for it than i ever could be about new COD

very rewarding when you form a good squad of randomers and dominate the battlefield

Thats what armour is for but most people use it wrong. Trying long shots from miles away. Punching a whole through the bottleneck (and in a lot of cases dying in the process) allows your team to push through.

Correct use of recon kit can help bottlenecks a lot too as it's a lot easier to take out the campers if the snipers work together on a single area.

Assault kits using smoke grenades which helps this problem a lot.

Only problem is 90% of people do not know how to use their kit correctly.
 
The bottle necks are more of a killing zone armour doesn't help a great deal there. I tend to use it to cancel out Magnum ammo in frontal attacks when there isn't a more valuable specialisation to the class/loadout I'm using.

You can't even communicate with the other 2/3rds of your team though you just have to hope they get it right or that the other team is equally bad and a single good squad can cancel them out. Otherwise it's mission impossible.

One moment while I have a rage attack.

NEOSTEAD 2000 Combat Shotgun w/magnum ammo + 12g slugs. Honestly I am SICK of that thing. The majority of my deaths were to that last night and during my rage I had a blast to see what all the fuss is about. Its ridiculous, the accuracy and power at range are stupid. Combine that with the fact the even on hardcore mode it still has cross-hairs and its the ultimate lamers tool. Oh and spawn camping, game after game of HC Rush always the same players. AAAARRRGGHHHHHHH! :mad:

Thats better :D
 
I am up to level 5 now, unlocked a bunch of stuff. Although it isn't so much kill/death/kill/death as mw2 I find that I have to sneak around more and look sharp to find kills.
 
..been trying to get back into this but seeing some truly awful bugs in this game, tears and the maps falling apart, getting stuck behind stupid objects etc, and still no updates?

You should play hardcore when you know the maps. Then you really do need to use cover. Much better game on HC.
