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

One thing that's starting to annoy me it the map design. Most of them are incredibly linear with the same style of choke points over and over. (rush mode)

I'd say the maps are fine. There's plenty of room to flank if you wait for a bunch of your headless teammates to go and distract people.


Not a big deal & I love the conquest maps....which is mainly what I play. The rush maps were just better in bc1 imo. But I guess a mix of both is fine.

Why are the guys at rank 1 and 2 in the world only level 26, yet number 3 is level 47? Number 1 has played 296 hours (how sad) and is only at that level. :/

Most of them are probably BHL = Boosters Hot Line.

Any guys up there with BHL in their tags?

Haha, just had a great game on the conquest map with the big barn. We had all of the flags and then made our way to where the enemy respawn. Our whole team were there, and literally as soon as the enemy respawned, they were dead. I was just sat there in a tank blasting the same spot, and managed over 40 kills.

I know it was spawn camping which I never really do, but it was pretty much the only thing we could do as we had them up in a corner. :p

Yeah it happens a lot. Dice have made it so you get points and can get in to the spawns so I see nothing wrong with it. The name of the game is to take tickets. No point in letting them all out when you have them in a small space and the game supports the play. Dice have tweeted already to say its meant to happen to poor teams. And you have to be on a fairly poor team to allow it to happen (plus a little bad luck). I try to have a little fight out of spawn but if I'm not enjoying myself I just leave (no rage)
 
Its to get cash off the pre-owned market and seem like you're giving away stuff at the same time.

I was hoping harbour conquest would be larger.....its just the second set of mcoms area....oh well probably good for tight infantry. Oh I hear very good things about the new rush map. People seem to love it

anyone else started to get kicked randomly from lobbies or is it just my connection going wierd? It's probably the connection as Xbox live functions are going dodgy as well.

On another note, WHY are the nerfing the AN94? The M16 is so much better than the AN94, nerf that! Magnum ammo M16 is a one burst kill and with a 4x scope you can pretty much treat it as an anti-sniper marksman weapon with full auto capability!

Are they nerfing the AN94? I've heard nothing of this.
 
Click update, and then refresh the page.



What's that?

When a team has the majority of the flags on conquest the losing team loses tickets at a rate of 4 a minute. Which a lot of people think is too slow, as just having a good k: d makes more sense for the team. You can easily beat a team that holds all the flags for most of the game at the moment and many believe it shouldn't be that way.
 
Thanks for the clarification Zensuji. Could never work out how Conquest worked! :D

No worries I found it a lot easier to win when I realised the rules :D

Best strat on conquest is really just get a high k: d in a decent amount. If you do it in a squad with a medic hanging back you'll clean up and barely cost your team any tickets.

At the moment it is like team death match with the ability to capture spawn points. I think a ticket bleed of 6-8 per min for the majority of bases held will take it back to conquest where sacrifice will be a legitimate strat. It is however worth fighting for a base if you have none and run the risk of getting spawn camped.

....I'll stop saying "strat" now....sound like douche. :p

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 :)
 
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!

Yeah its after you drop about 5 ft you're eligible for a chute :D
