BF: Bad Company

[Butuz]

So who's playing this then?

Got to admit I am really enjoying it. Single player is fun - I play this slow and stealthy spending most of my time in cover. Pity you can't control your squadmates - they often spoil my cover - some Graw2 type controls would make a big difference here. Multiplayer is just frantic - I have not laughed so much playing a game for a while - I also have not smashed my fist down on the desk as hard whilst playing a game

Laughed my tits off the other day when I was running behind a tank over a bridge under fire and some sneaky bugger let of a grenade under the bridge which left a hole just small enough for the tank to actually fall through tail-down. So this poor guy was stuck in a tank pointing upwards with the nose through the concrete - I don't think he had any idea what was happening. Once I had stopped laughing (about 3 mins) i realised that actually the tank sticking out of the ground was perfect cover for me - bang bang bang

If anyone wants to multiplay my tag is Butuz.

I got this as well as Beijing 2008, Alone in the Dark 4 on Friday

Not getting much time on the console at the moment as the Mrs is currently playing the gymnastic events in Beijing

Loved this game while it lasted anyway , completed it in a day on normal

not touched single player yet

i'm loving multi, thee is a few problems with it, but hey its a battlefield game, you gotta expect it. loads of stat padders about, flipping humvee's and fixing for mega points. also loads of tk's especially when your on the arty, found payback for that though, if somebody does tk you to get you off the arty, get in a tank and driv einto it, destroys the arty and gives them a suicide, you'll be just as bad as them, but will probably make you feel better.

one thing that i'm loving is the open maps, end of the line and harvest day are almost perfect, everyclass and every vehicle does what its supposed too.

Been hammering the demo, going to pick this up on payday. The multiplayer is awesome even with only one map. Cant wait to try the others

Still has the old BF stat padders and to many idiots playing sniper which has lead to much shouting on live from me. Great game regardless.

The dumb snipers at least make for easy kills

[Butuz]

Yeh the bug with the humvee's is annoying. If i see anyone doing it I tem kill em and blow up the humm vee. Doesnt do my stats any good but then stats mean jack squiddle anyway and it makes me feel a whole lot better

It's brilliant! You think it's just going to gouge up your paint work but as if by magic it completely repairs your jeep/tank/helicopter/boat. Makes a Dremel look like a piece of pish by comparison.

It also magically knows whether to repair or destroy a vehicle depending on whether or not it's enemy. IFF on drills genius.

Oddly it can repair anything but metal crates.

I played the demo thought it was awesome, does anyone know if there is bullet drop in this game like BF2?

[chuckskull]

Yup there is, varies by gun of course.

Yup it can. bit ballsy, but you'd be surprised how well it works, takes the same amount of time as repairing.

[dave87]

Yup I've got it, and I made the mistake of playing it like I would COD4 online.

I died a lot

Really good game though, and am about half way through the single player campaign.
