CoD stinks; its a camp-fest. Thats why they are changing how scores are calculated online to try and force players to move. NEvermind theres no actual SKILL or strategy involved...

Actually, I competed in Cod4 for over a year, and my clan finished 1st on the initial TWL 8v8 Cod4 competition ladder...we promptly went back to BF2 for the next two years though, as aside from the grpahics, we all decided BF2 was a much more enjoyable game.

yea, i have also played COD. but its NOTHING SPECIAL. Bf has always been better than cod, gfx, gameplay everything. Im not saying cod sucks, but BF is better, and I'm tired of listening to hundreds of kids brag about dumbass percs and new guns. and no dedicated servers? pathetic...

Reply to JDV28

yeah well if i get a new computer for gaming i am gonna get battlefield bad company 2 :hello:

------------------------------ YEAH I GAME SO WHAT
Reply to gamingguy

Reply to gamingguy

Are there gonna be dedicated servers?

I saw some BETA console clips....love the destruction effects! Bad Company FTW!

i dont know how im a MLG for xbox but im gonna start with the pc now and im astudent

------------------------------ YEAH I GAME SO WHAT
Reply to gamingguy

Yeah, BC2 will have dedicated servers.

BTW, what do you think are the odds the PR (Project Reality) guys port the mod (or make a new one) on the BC2 engine? Now that would be epic. :D

I would be drooling if they ported it over!! I just started playing PR and it's much more tactical and in some instances, more intense than vanilla.

Yes there will definitely be dedicated servers unlike *cough* MW2 *cough* haha and yea, MLG for sure. gamebattles.com is great.

Reply to JDV28

Haha, I was just coming here to post this. BC2 has me excited like no other. I am still on the fence if I want t pre-order to play the beta.

Here is a cool bug fix list that should get people stoked.

"The Ammo Box, Medkit, Defibrillator, Repair Tool, and Motion Sensor are now unlocks for each class."

Here is what I am PO about though. This is what drove me nuts with 2142...having to unlock the kit essentials is a waste of an unlock.

Reply to SpinachEater

beta? what beta? I preordered it a couple weeks ago. and yea, im not a huge fan of 2142.

Reply to JDV28

PC beta is supposed to be open Jan 28- Feb 25 for pre-orders but it sounds like you have to pre-order from the right place.

"How To Get Access: Reserve Battlefield Bad Company 2 is the most sure fire way, but we are still working with Retailers & e-Tailers that wish to participate (it's up to them). If you're eager to ensure you get in the two confirmed distributors to Pre-Order are the EA Store and at GameStop.com. We'll have another Blog at a later date with an update on the retailers & e-Tailers that have teamed up with us as well as alternate channels to obtain a Closed Beta Key."

Reply to SpinachEater

I'm pretty sure i chose gamestop and Jan 28 is my bday. what a great present haha

Reply to JDV28

Arg! That beta is right around when mass effect 2 is coming out.

Reply to maximaniac

eck, i didnt like mass effect at all.

Reply to JDV28

if i could rate mass effect on a scale to 1-10 i would rate it a 3 but thats a opinion :whistle:

------------------------------ YEAH I GAME SO WHAT
Reply to gamingguy

Agreed haha I played for about an hour and it was just plain bad

Reply to JDV28

I am getting excited from the gameplay vids. It is interesting because it looks more COD-MW like than other BFs...or more so the lighting does. They mentioned that they would like to go up against Activision with this one.

One thing making me annoyed too is the sniper vids. When you look through the scope, it blacks out for a second. WTF is up with that? Curious of that is a beta thing or how it will be.

Reply to SpinachEater

IT DOES NOT LOOK LIKE COD. It looks like an awesome realistic game with exceptional gfx. and yea, that would be really annoying if there was a black screen like that.

Haha, I mean only that it got a lighting face lift...not that it looks like COD gameplay. This is like BF2 on steroids...totally awesome ones.

Reply to SpinachEater

That was a cool vid, thanks. well, im off for the night.

Reply to JDV28

Im going to have to buy some 5hr energy, a sack of weed, and take a few days of vacation when this comes out...and maybe a towel...

Reply to SpinachEater

I just got a raging clue looking at those vids.

Reply to maximaniac

Hopefully they can sort of this pre-release beta access because there is no way I am buying it through EADM

Reply to SpinachEater

For Sure. and props on the mary jane, SpinachEater. :)

Reply to JDV28

this game will be awesome. it will be what MW2 was suppossed to be, REALISTIC!!

Reply to user-one

Yes it will. but the cod nerds dont know what they are talking about so they say "no way man bf is stupid cod is awesome" lol

Well, at least the lack of a Defib by default will open up competition; the 3-2/5-3 Medic/Assault setups got borring REALLY fast...

i looking forward to Battlefield 1943, at $15 you can't loose.

Reply to jgiron

Its only 15 for PC? ill definitely be getting that. And i plan on putting together a team on the MLG site gamebattles.com for BC2, anyone who thinks that they want to join in PM me please.

Reply to JDV28

1943 is a console game; no reason for PC gamers to waste time with that toy.

The single player of COD was pretty sweet, I do have to admit that because it sucked me in. The online play just left me thinking...I wish this was more BF2-like.

I will admit this too...for MW the snipers are much much better than BF. Funny though, it looks like in badCO2, they upgraded their sniper kit with a ghille suite. Saweeeeeet!

Reply to SpinachEater

Yep, ghillie suits are a must-have lol

Reply to JDV28

I am looking forward to BC2 after passing on MW2.hope the beta keys are available without the online preorder.I would like to try this game before buying.

Reply to 24oz

Yea, because how would they only make the beta available to preorderers?

Reply to JDV28

it's made specifically for pc, not ported from console.... & it will have dedicated servers, a crucial component for me to buy.

Reply to timbo

Clearly its not ported, as the makers of BF have some common sense. unlike CoD.

It is sounding like they are keeping the beta demo tightly capped to pre-orders only. Also, as of right now, it sounds like not all pre-orderes will get a beta key either...just the EA store and GameStop is said to officially hand out beta keys.

I pre-ordered from Amazon today but I won't be shocked if I can't gain beta access. It would be nice if they can get some more details out about the access.

Since the PC beta stops on Feb 25th it would also be nice if they opened it back up as an official demo once the game is released. I wouldn't have gotten into BF2 if it wasn't for the demo.

Reply to SpinachEater

I'm almost sure that i got it from gamestop, how will i get the beta?

Reply to JDV28

Here is what GameStop says:

Reserve Battlefield Bad Company 2 and receive access to the PC multiplayer beta. Beta begins January 28th, 2010 and ends February 25, 2010. Available for online customers only while supplies last. Not available for in-store or in-store pickup orders.

Online Customers: A beta activation code and download instructions will be emailed beginning January 26th, 2010.
