First Bad Company 2 Expansion Takes The Fight To 'Nam

This came out of nowhere.  Outside of the experiment that was BF: Vietnam before BF 2, there was never a hint of them returning to this.  I love it, but I'm feeling that this is tied to CoD Black Ops, someone knew about the others project, it's too big a coincidence.

ROCK IT REAL!

Fuck yes!!

@ Linkin10362 Dice is making DLC for it bc they know every achievment hore and tropie hunter will buy it to make there game 100% done

Too bad it is not a full game unto itself though.

ugh

At least it's coming out for PCs too. DICE hasn't been as nice to PC players as they claim.

cool

So is this like Battle Field Vietnam 2?

The original BF Vietnam, had loads of potential, but ultimately felt like a mod for 1942. Since this one is an expansion, I can just expect more BC 2 with a classic rock soundtrack =D

$15 is the max for me, $20 would be too much...

Vietnam is underused and has so much potential in the right hands. I think Dice could be those hands to finally nail it.

" Hmm I distinctly remember there being a WWII mod for BFV that looked very similar to this in terms of content that was ours for the low price of COMPLETELY FREE. No doubt this will go for at least $15, if not $20. Sign of the times.  THERE ARE STILL SOME OF US ORIGINAL PC BATTLEFIELD GAMERS AROUND THAT REMEMBER THE GOOD OLD DAYS DICE, THE CONSOLE KIDS HAVE NOT TOTALLY TAKEN OVER YET "

vietnam sounds great a change of location is always nice...

Black opts prequel ? 

As long as there are Hueys, I'm in.

The fact that they would be fighting the North Vietnamese army would imply that the DLC takes place during the Vietnam War, otherwise they'd be fighting a unified army. Or.. this is alternate reality where there are two Vietnams. Either way, I've been yearning for trip wires in Bad Company 2 since the game came out. 

Like I said, this is nice, but winter? Also, the fact that there are only 4 maps, and they are calling it an expansion scares me.  
 
I would assume that all 4 maps will be available for all game-types, which would be nice. I also hope the maps are big enough, and that jets are included. 
 
But, I guess I would be fine with big maps, Hueys, and Cobras. 
 
Oh, please, napalm?

Let's hope this is better than the Battlefield: Vietnam

Well, this is interesting...idk if I'm actually going to pay for it though with everything else taking my interest away

this would have been a great downloadable game to follow the suburb BF1943

quest?

Its all like one big game of follow the leader with EA and Activision. I cant decide if its depressing or hilarious, probably the latter.

I'll probably grab the game once the vietnam expansion comes out
 
I loved battlefield:vietnam and especially seeing as it sounds like they kept the sound files from the original with the vietnamese propaganda

I can't wait.

Sure. We could use a bit more Vietnam games.

looks fun

" i think 'nam isn't as sensitive as before, that's why everyone and their mother is coming out with a 'nam themed war game. can the korean war get some lovin' next? "

I guess they are trying to beat Black Ops. Good luck to the guys at DICE, I will probably end up with both though.

so are Vietnam and modern conflcts the new World War 2 (i.e: the game everyone will now do over and over again?)

" Why is an expansion needed? "

Sounds nice. I'm in!
 
I, along with other, expected an expansion pack to be shown at E3. However I was hoping for a futuristic setting. But that seems to be a common theme for many other games coming out, so I'm not exactly let down by Vietnam.

EA trying to nab some market from acti before black ops?

Oh great! So I still need no new games and can just continue playing this forever :D 
BFV and BFBC2 are my favortie Battlefield games after the 1942 one so I'm pretty excited.

" Why is an expansion needed? "

I'm guessing it's Vietnam war pretty much a skin or mod.

" Who wants to bet they only started developing this when they heard the next COD was set in 'Nam? "

" I highly doubt its Vietnam ERA, just in Vietnam (they're still a communist nation). "

I always knew that the guys from Bad Company were a 'force' to be reckoned with.
