Battlefield: Bad Company 2 Thread

Parachute button on the Xbox is not B, it’s A.

Got my platinum star with the VSS sniper today, working on my platinum star for my MP-412 Rex now. Currently on 6 gold stars.

My fav weapon to use with the medic is the G3, its a pretty good multi purpose weapon. The M60 is bugged, it doesn’t lose accuracy at long range when using the acog scope (4x) so its way more accurate than any of the sniper rifles.

Thanks for the info guys.

Why would the 4X scope make any gun lose accuracy, regardless of range? According to Den’s website Red Dot and 4X don’t affect the gun at all, just the sight. The guns still draw on the same file for stats. that the iron sight gun uses.Likewise the Twitter account that’s been posted from one of the DICE employees a couple times in here, and/or some other comment from DICE, even says that Red Dot and 4X don’t affect gun stats. at all. They just affect what kind of graphic is shown for the sight, and how fast the sight is drawn.

Personally I can’t stand the 4X most of the time, as any gun makes the triangle jump around too much for me to keep a proper bead on the target. That said, no matter how bad it might look when the cross hairs jumps around it still fires in the same place the irons or red dot would be shooting at, the zoomed in view just gives the false illusion you’re not firing bullets in the same cone.

Nothing of interest given the video is from February, until you pay closer attention to 0:40 to ~0:45, there’s a medic using a 4X scoped G3. REALLY hoping red dot and acog gets added at some point, especially for the M14, let alone anything else they’ll add it too on the general gun list.

Saw it posted elsewhere figured someone here might be interested.

Just noticed this finished processing so I’m going to do a shameful plug. My first BC2 commentary and footage: [media=youtube]mfn1Oh0jI4w[/media]

Been having some mad fun with the medic kit. I think there was a point yesterday where my squad and I were just running circles around the enemies. We had so many health packs in a M-COM Station that it was impossible for them to come and defuse, and if anybody finally picked one of us off there was at least 3 or 4 people inside ready to revive.

I gave you a 5 star for a fellow youtube BC2 player :slight_smile:

Good shit Drunken Geordie!

Good god the M60 is stupid fucking good. Shit hits almost as hard as the M1 garand but has an insanely high rate of fire. I was mowing down squads like they were nothing. That gun is fucking bananas, good thing they’re gonna balance it out.

Got my 6th gold star today with the 1911, god I love it.

I’ve started to use the M249 SAW a lot, I like the M60, but at mid to close range, the SAW just eats people alive.

so does anyone know if getting gold stars for weapons increases the damage of it by 3% per star?

Where’d you hear that? Far as I can tell, no damage increase, that’d be mighty broken for sniper rifles.

just a rumor i heard, i almost wanted to believe it for awhile because how some recon players kill like crazy even when im zigzagging, i don’t understand how all of those can be HS, but then again some of the top players are pretty crazy with these games.

God I hope not. That’ll give people EVEN MORE ammo to stat pad.

Like Assault, amirite?

Assault players need to be dropping ammo every chance they can. I shouldn’t ever run out of rockets as Engi with 5 Assault running around.

can assault’s G-launchers destroy vehicles ? especially apc’s and tanks .

Any non tank vehicles a 40mm will smack (hummers and larger cars might take 2). Even a chopper will go down with a well placed 40mm. It’s pretty epic, I’ve had it happen once accidentally, saw a chopper flying by me and fired, shit killed a gunner instantly and then caused the chopper to spin out.

I don’t even bother shooting 40mm’s at tanks, don’t know how much damage it does exactly but whatever it is, it isn’t enough, I leave that shit to Carl.

Yes, albeit not as fast as RPGs/C4/AT mines. I believe on the lighter vehicles like HMMWV’s and ATV’s, it’s a one shot thing no matter what you use (except for light artillery, of course).

I’ve yet to shoot down a heli with the 40mm. It just doesn’t go high enough before arcing back down. I love the “Goose” though; shot down 5 Hinds as offense on Isla last night!

I aim over the helicopter for a 40mm by a bit.

the 20 demolish kills trophy is hella hard on ps3.

I can destroy ANY armored vehicle, 100%, with weapons that aren’t suppose to kill them. kekekekeke

1.Attach C4
2.Shoot C4 with Smoke Grenade/pistol.
3.Pistol/Smoke Grenade shows up as killing device.
