Battlefield: Bad Company
thinking about picking it up also....loved bf2 so hoping this
@guffman - is that pic taken from the dublin gig last year?
Singleplayer is decent at best due to the bizarrely designed AI, checkpoints and health system. Essentially it encourages the tactic of using no tactics whatsoever. Which is ass backwards in a game that's supposed to be about freeform combat. Other than this major flaw it's pretty good though. Could've been much, much better.
Multiplayer is great fun on the other hand. Despite its flaws.
Its great, but the multiplayer experience varies from great to awful. Often your team just run around looking for kills while the gold crate is being destroyed and that seriously gets under my skin.
The artillery rushes are completely retarded aswell, constant team killing to get on it.
I picked a used copy of the game even though I wasn't too impressed with the beta/demo. In a few days I ended up returning it because I just wasn't feeling it. The SP is fun, but playing it through it just makes me wish it was co-op and the teammates "writing" is ridiculous, but at least it's not bad enough to take away from the game.
My real issue is with MP because it has the same issues that all Battlefield games have, like spawn-camping. But everything seems worse in this game. When I can start up the game and join a random MP match and die in under a second (without any chance) ...there's something wrong. This happened to me over half of the time and it just took away from any fun I may have...
I bought it. I beat the single-player in short sittings over the span of two days. I played a little of the multiplayer. I wrote a review of it and that would be great if some people would check it out.
read my review
I started playing this game with an open mind, not expecting anything from it, and wow I was impressed! The Single Player is fun... On medium, I think Hard can wait until my next play through. The Multiplayer is a nice refresh from COD4 and Halo 3, and although there is only one gametype they are adding another one soon. All in all this has to be one of my most unexpectedly loved games this year, besides Earth Defense Force 2017 that is.
It is a good game. I thought the review gave a bit too much praise, blowing stuff up is neat, but not exactly a huge change in the gameplay, also the game has some bugs and quirks that come into play that didn't get any mention in the review. I wrote up my own review in there and posted it.
I have the game and i love it i just have been having problems with the game latley like spawning in front of a enemy and stuff like that in a game oi reasitally played online i spawned right infront of a enemy and he was right behind me and he knifed me so i am starting to get POed becouse i caouldnt kill and i just kept spawning right next to enemys so if u can fix that, that would be nice.

"This isn't the developer DICE's forums. And the reason that happens is because there are a limited number of spawn points that dedicated players eventually learn and often camp. It will probably be fixed in BC2 like in BF Heroes -- you parachute in toward the middle of the map once the enemy begins camping your home base.I have the game and i love it i just have been having problems with the game latley like spawning in front of a enemy and stuff like that in a game oi reasitally played online i spawned right infront of a enemy and he was right behind me and he knifed me so i am starting to get POed becouse i caouldnt kill and i just kept spawning right next to enemys so if u can fix that, that would be nice.
