Ok, I have been wanting to try out Battlefield BC2 before I purchase it. And I have been looking all over for the damnd demo (360 version). Does anyone know if they are going to release a demo for it? And to those of you who enjoy this type of game what are your thoughts? I know it has received decent reviews and I plan on getting the game. But I refuse to purchase a game without playing it first, I have been burned in the past and blowing $60 bucks on something thats not what your looking for sucks.

The demo for the game ended a week before release. It was completely mutiplayer so there is no reason for it to still be avaiable for download (as opposed to the demo for the first game, which had a singleplayer portion as well. I am on my iPhone so I won't be able to post gameplay video. However I personally will remember this game as the one I had most fun with this generation. Please post the qualities you think make a multiplayer FPS game good. Everyone knows how fanatical I am about the game so I'll post my negatives: * One or two guns that are "overpowered". Nothing game breakingly powerful, and it is easy to defeat such people with the starting guns, just slightly annoying to see everyone use the M60 * High emphasis on teamwork. While such a thig is also a HUGE positive, it can also horribly backfire when you don't have friends to play with And half your team are Recon snipers. If you don't have any friends to play with use the PSN/LIVE exchange on the official forum, and friend anybody you meet with mics (although mics shouldn't be a problem for LIVE) * Small bugs. It makes you want to scream when you sneakup on a sniper, clearly stab a knife on his back, and end up being point blanked shot by a sniper rifle. * Linear maps on Conquest. There are a few maps that have a more open and varied flag set up. However there are 2 maps (Atamaca Desert and White Pass) that are literally a straight line. |
My main concerns probably have to do with the vehicles. Are the planes and helicopters easier to fly than say Battlefield 1943? I also am wondering about the destructive environments. Can you destroy pretty much everything? And is there a ton of camping in it? I hate friggin campers.

Flying in a chopper became way too easy in Bad Company 2, in comparison to Bad Company 1. But, if your concern is vehicles being too hard to control then you don't have to worry.
You can destroy pretty much everything. The micro destruction was slightly overstated (works beautifully for fences, concreate barriers, boxes, etc), but Macro certainly delivers. You can literally destroy everything, including entire buildings except for a very few exceptions (construction sets that have very few walls in the first place).
You may face teams that camp a lot, but those teams will fail because ALL the game modes are objective based. Squad Deathmatch? If you camp in the perfect defensive position with a behemoth (sp?) light tank, you'll still lose because everyone will simply avoid you and rack up their kills.
If you're talking about people who camp in the corner of buildings, just roll in a tank and plow through that wall to roadkill them =D
