Bad Company 2

Post by Ozone »

Well, getting a bit sick of MW2 on the odd time I play it. Kids with the maps memorized so they can immediately fire noob tubes into spawns and run a map pattern from spawn to spawn. Glitchers and those who take Army of One perk to switch classes and thus have the use of a dozen plus rockets. Aimbot mods, and camping snipes focusing on spawns from across the map. Its gotten a bit ridiculous.

Was planning to possibly pick up the rehash of MoH but between the bad press and lackluster reviews on the multiplayer opted no to. Black Ops was a possibility, but I know its going to be MW2 with new environments (granted, some vehicles) so the standard MW2 player will be about.

But, had a buddy who swears by BFBC2 (work as a team, quasi realistic bullet physics, permeable environments, choice of spawn location). Thought I'd give it a go. Picked up the 'ultimate' edition today which contains all dlc to date (all maps, loadouts and vehicles) as well as a bonus full copy of Battlefield 1943.

Deciding factor for me was this vid...

If anyone's playing, Im tagged as 'Doctor 0zone' (the O in Ozone is actually a zero).

Vietnam pack came out this week. BFBC2 rocks, BFBC2V adds additional rockage.

The lone and level sands stretch far away.
