Battlefield: Bad Company 2

[spatular]

But going on what I have heard I would expect that this will probably be played for a month or three and then quietly forgotten about, with everyone going back to Modern Warfare 2 and Halo 3.

even though i've been really enjoying it online so far (much more than MW2 but i know that's personal opinion ) i'd agree it's unlikely it will stick around for more than a few months.

i'm going to give it a good go trying to get into it, as long as other people are still on it i'll keep on it till at least the reach beta hopefully, even though i've played quite a bit the tactics are so different from anything else it's quite hard to get into, especially with the spawn on team options and the destructable scenary, and each class has different kit that i have no idea about yet. i'm still trying to get my head round it all.

Another here with not a great deal of time for gaming so when I do get on I usually end up on MW2 as that is what most people on my list seem to be playing every time I get on lol. Still got Bioshock 2 to start and now this! Should be on ths evening for a few hours from 8ish if anyone is up or some games

if i'm not playing footy i'll be on from 8 too, think choke said he'd be on too, a problem with this is the limited squad size, if we get more than 4 i think we'll have to try and get 2 squads going in a game and all be in a party

Give me a shout if I'm on, would be well up for this.

Should be on about 8ish unless I'm swayed by FF or the wife's watching tv.

Would love to get some games going - every time i've tried the servers have been fucked

Had some enjoyable games on this tonight once I managed to get on the same team as everyone else, I think the stupidly small squad size limit puts a real downer on what seems to be a cracking game. Need to get used to the controls a bit as I lost count of the number of times I went to stab someone only to crouch in front of them instead lol

yeah good games last night

apparently you can strap explosives to quad bikes and uav's then drive them into objectives/tanks and detonate - need to try this out

You have always been able to do this with the C4 - good fun. It does seem that alot of people dont know you have to destroy the M-com stations anyway you can in Rush mode - you dont have to run up and hold B and plant Explosives - tanks shells, RPG's, grenades etc will damage it and slowly take its health down - sometimes this is the better option when you cant get near to it due the other team guarding it well.
