Bad Company 2 Thread

haha i just got this game, its so fun... Ive never really been a BF fan except for 1942, thing I dont like is that I never know what my ping is, I still cant figure out how to use a mic
 
The mic from what i have seen only works to communicate with your squad the rest of the team will not hear you correct me if i'm wrong..
 
I just got this game, and I'm really enjoying it. I haven't even tried multiplayer yet. The single player campaign is too fun. Was the first Bad Company this good? If so, I just might have to buy it.
 
Steam just updated BC...i was wondering what head been done,It appears the new updates changes are as followed.

Just tried it since update..you can now see the ranks easier on the in game score board as they removed the " " on the ranks...better!
Although the game is still un-balanced,due to the red part i put in the updates list...heres the situation i just had.

Just me on defenders team
2 on attackers team

you cant earn points unless there are 4 of you in the game now,which i think is fair,BUT....the attackers can still arm the bombs and blow them up which isnt fair because by the time someone has joined the defenders team the enemy has already blown up hallf the bombs and theres nothing you can do .

i play it on 360, i still prefer mw2 if im gunna be playing by myself. i enjoy sniping sometimes i get extremely ticked off when im using the same sniper as half the people in the game and have to shoot them 3 times to kill them but they can kill me in one shot and not a headshot.

i also play engi
 
That's a lot of fixes. let's hope they break the tradition of bad patches that came witg BC2 (got patched up to 1.5, and sometimes still doesn't work properly :P)

I used to play MW2 all the time,But i think when you rank so high and there has not been any new maps/weapons etc it just gets boring as theres nothing to realy play for anymore...not for me anyway.

I do think BC2 is better tham MW2,the size of the maps + you can use helis,jeeps,tanks.boats etc +better graphics...and there far far more teamwork involved in BC2....there realy isnt in MW2 unless your in a realy good clan and do teamwork.

As for what class i play as though,It realy depends on the situation...il sometimes go engineer if one of my teammates has a tank...i can repair it for him...if theres alot of snipers in the round then il either go Medic or Assult to replenish their Health/Ammo etc...i never realy stick to one class.

It is,Nice to see theyre realy working on improving the game though,Some game companies take forever to make patches/updates etc.

Although since the update,Im not finding so many servers :/ maybe 5 or so even after selecting diffrent country zones....i hope this is just another problem caused by the update that can be fixed,I had hundreds of servers show before the patch.

Yeah, I was reading some comments off reddit, and some people mentioned the Carl Gustav doesn't appear to be touched, LMGs have been changed, the M1911 was touched, I think the F2000's range was increased, and some other stuff.

Not sure if the full patch was released or if it will be fully released later tonight.

yea like i said i play mw2 when i dont have any friends play bc2 because i cant stand getting teamates that dont know what they are doing.

i think bc2 and mw2 both have their own perks
 
Anyon else noticed the huge amounts of people been kicked/banned lately by Punkbuster due to them having AIMBOTS.

I must have seen 5 get kicked in the same round....why so many damn people cheating,anyway nice to see punkbuster doing its job.

Actually, it's the same number of people aim botting(I hope), it's just now that in order to be a ranked server, you must have punkbuster on it
