Got it?

It's so easy and over powered, YET underused. I can't believe that something that so badly needs to be nerfed isn't being abused. You can literally spot enemies a mile away:

 

0:20. I literally just pointed at a general direction, and spammed Select (PS3. Back for 360. Q for PC), and got an instant 20 points for Spot Assist. IT'S THAT EASY.

 

2. ATTACKERS: DON'T ABANDON VEHICLES!!! Watch the Hitler video, watch 2:02 of my video, and especially 10:47.

DEFENDERS: DON'T DESTROY ABANDONED ENEMY VEHICLES. Steal them, and you not only add a vehicle to your arsenal, but deprive the enemy of one. Again, watch the Hitler video.

 

3. LISTEN TO WHAT THE CHARACTERS SAY!!! When you hear my character shouting "AMMO! GIMME SOME AMMO!" or "I NEED A MEDIC!", it's not "ambient noise" >.< And please don't ignore me when I'm shooting at your legs and doing the little ammo dance.

It's also good to remember what language your characters and teammates are speaking in, as since the enemy characters are chatty too, you can get a good heads up on when the enemy is nearby, and where the enemy is.

The characters are also descriptive, specificly shouting sniper, tank, etc. Again, it's not ambient noise. When a character says "TANK!" get your ass to cover.

 

4. DESTROY THE BUILDINGS!!! Again, watch 2:02 and the Hitler video. While not all M-COM stations can be destroyed this way, a good number can, and it's easy.

Also, utilize the destruction to your advantage. See 5:04 of my video. Use desctruction to hop from one building, to the next. Use destruction to destroy stationary machine guns. Use destruction to clear out all the trees and deprive the attackers of cover. Use destruction to make your own door and suprise the campers pointing their crosshairs at them.

Haha no. All you have to do is give it a 110% and charge full force. Alright that's the voice of my online wingman since 2005 but point still stands. You work as a team and play like a small squad. Don't need vehicles or a gimmick, just a smart team.

Although, still some good info. I spot all the time. Spam the shit out of the button. But vehicles to me are ways to travel and that is it. And if you decide to take it, well my recon player will have some nice C4 left on it for ya haha. But can't wait for this game.

Have fun ninjaing in the first section of Port Valdez, after we stole 2 of your tanks, demolished all the trees in front (giving you absolutely no cover or foilage to stealth through).

And it's fine if you're an infantry guy, and don't like Tank whores. Just DO NOT, use the vehicle as a transport in the sense of driving up a tank to crate B, ditching it, dying, having the crate disarmed AND losing the tank to the enemy team.



hehe, I'm camping (as Medic) and I'm good at it :P



haha the first video was actually quite informative. I never knew that you could run over people with the UAV and for the life of me I could not figure out how to use the machine gun for the UAV. I swear I had tried the right bumper before but I guess not.

The only thing that bothers me so far about the demo is that helicopters are way too hard to take out unless I'm doing something very wrong or have missed something very obvious. Tanks usually can't aim high enough to hit them, normal gunfire doesn't damage them like it did in the first bad company, rpg's can't lock on to them as far as I know and it is all but impossible to hit them with a missile strike from the UAV. A good helicopter pilot can single handedly turn the tide of the entire game and it can be quite frustrating.

Just to add, there are so many different ways of playing the game that it constantly stays fun. Just the other day when we were on defense me and my friend would steal the attackers ATV's and strap about 12 C4 to the thing. Then my friend would drive into tanks or enemy bases and I would detonate the explosives killing about 5 people in the process. I literally got 1000 points with a single explosion once. Of course my friend would calmly drive out of a twisted wreckage and a huge crater cause friendly fire is off XD

Nah. I think Helicopters are good in this game. They can't fly up as high, the maps are smaller than in BC1, and they can't do crazy maneuvering like in BC1. Allowing infantry to shoot them will nerf the chopper completely. Normal tanks shouldn't be able to take out choppers easily. The biggest threat a chopper should face is the AA Tank.

 

Besides, if it's only a half decent pilot you should still be able to hit it with normal tanks and UAVs.

Hehe, that's team work for ya.



You should do these threads like Snake does Real talk.

 

Next up should be Resistance 2 and Battlefield 1943.

 

Im amazed at how people cant play either one of these games...



I just go at it rambo style. That's how I play in every game. You might get me 100's of times,but I'll get you eventually.
