Battlefield: Bad Company 2 Thread

I am going to start writing all my resumes in Invisble Ink. My employer can read it if they hold it up to the light, but are they going to? No.

You have thoughtful posts (smoke grenades) but are too stubborn to change your font so it falls on deaf ears. Too bad.

I love how when someone brings up a legitimate complaint with you you cry to stay on topic. I never see you saying these things when other people are flamed.

Hey Koryn, I come in this thread and still can’t read your shit. It’s got to change. I come in here for information, and with my default skin settings it doesn’t look like you’re typing anything. If youre not going to contribute in this thread with posts readable by all members regardless of default skins we choose then please quit trolling already. Use the default font color or choose a color we can all see and read clearly.

Just some thoughts on the assault:

I think that this class is one of the more “micro” manage classes than the rest. It can be a lot of fun if you play right. Using smoke/grenade launcher is pure fun.

  1. Dont waste your specialization on the increased 40mm grenade/hand grenade kit. This was my first mistake. Realize that you can throw ammo boxes down, and you yourself can benefit from this. It’s like the medical class healing itself!!! (Can the do that btw?)
  2. NEVER run out of ammo. That means that you can fucking BLAST away!!!
  3. You can use the AN something gun. This gun TEACHES you how to fire in the game. Quick rapid bursts.
  4. SMOKE SCREENS!!!. I’m not sure what the property is, but couple this with the ammo box drop and you can carpet bomb a whole arena!!!
  5. GRENADE LAUNCHER!!! With the ammo box drop, you can Demolition 2.0 most buildings.

That’s all for now. THe adv. of assault aren’t as readily noticed as the other classes if you ask me.

Thing is, it takes a good 35-45 seconds for the GL ammo to be replenished via the ammo box, which is perfectly fine.

To all the guys complaining about Korgaythian read my sig.

90% of the matches I join my team-mates are dumber than fossils
these MW2 kiddies need to find another game

this game is making me love FPS… That saying a lot. I can’t get enough! Just wish I had more friend to play with…

Does anyone know if the game doesn’t like multiple PCs from the same local network connecting to it? My room mates and I have working head sets, BFBC2, and Ventrilo, yet we never seem to be able to connect to the same servers. When all three of us try to connect, we never seem to be successful.

We have the top-of-the-line broadband package from Time Warner, so I’m slightly confused right now.

yes iren, bc2 has conflicting port resolution when it comes to multiple people trying to play on one network.

"For those who are playing BC2 in the same network as another person:
Many are experiencing getting kicked when a friend on LAN joins the same server. To fix this, in Steam:

  • Go to Steam’s My games menu
  • Right-click on the BFBC2 and select Properties
  • From the General tab, click the Set launch options button
  • Add a different client port number on each machine between 27005 and 27032 in the following format:
  • Code: +clientport 270XX (Where XX is a different number for each system - do not use 27020)"

Tell me how I exchange one faulty disc for another where the game just keeps freezing on me.

This.

Stopped playing for now…at least until someone comes up with a better admin tool, not being allowed to switch teams freely or move players is fucking retarded. Very frustrating game tbh, who needs it (for 25 quid a month). Why they would let you unlock everything by rank ~25 with a rank 50 cap is a mystery to me as well.
Back to TF2… :rolleyes:

Shot down an attack chopper with an abrahms, my Battlefield experience is now complete

Oh my God…THANK YOU. This has REALLY helped. My roomies and I are playing happily.

I couldn’t agree with you more, i ran into a team which was 75% recon and got pushed back so far in their base, they had to resort to parachuting down…and getting shot down then too.

Luckily i was on defense side lol, but i’ve ran into so many games where teammates just don’t know wtf they’re doing. MW2 strikes again!

I wish I had FRAPS running for this game I just got done playing. We were a team of 15 and there was an assault and a medic. The rest was Recon (including me). The difference is I’m playing Recon with the shotty right now and using the motion sensors to flush out buildings. I’m not hanging back and sniping, I’m in their base all the time racking up huge kill-streaks right now. Everyone else was sitting back and just shooting people whenever they could get the chance. Every time a tank, helicopter, or just a squad of medics/assaults would show up my entire team would shit a brick.

Someone else actually pointed out that the only people that were ever in his base trying to kill the M-COM station was me and two other guys. They felt bad for us.

I think i’m going to have to switch over to the PC version. I hate how there aren’t enough people playing on the consoles it seems…

For those that want the m1 garande and don’t have vet status: http://www.gamespot.com/ps3/action/battlefieldbadcompany2/show_msgs.php?topic_id=m-1-54001728&pid=957917&tag=topics;title

Update: Just did it and the M1 is pretty decent.

Me and my friend run a bomb busting setup. I roll as Recon with C4 and VSS rifle, He rolls with Engineer and anti-tank mines with the AK-74u.

We sneak our way into the m-com stations and lay all the C4 and Mines we can carry on to each m-com, find some safe corner/shelter and then blow it. I used to run as an assault class but I don’t like the loud guns and the loss of a motion sensor. + I find it faster to suicide then to sit on top of an ammo box waiting to reload all 6-7 C4’s
