Battlefield Bad Company 2

Thanks Art, to put it into different words, I would love to be up there sharing and discovering new and interesting twists and turns of the games rather than bringing up the rear and reminding everyone of the good times they had with the older games, not that i'm not enjoying what I do, it's the excitement of a new "find" thats missing :(

spaceboy · January 13, 2011, 12:16:46 PM

alot of times new twists and turns are still to be found, but yeah I get what your saying. - still a good problem to have - now go shoot some baddies for its thera-pew-tic properties...

see what I did there? pew as in pew-pew. shooting. ????

Yes Sir!! rightaway Sir!!.....do my best Sir!!

Space, I'd love to sit around and listen to the funny dis-pew-t you're going to have with your behaviour therapist.

spaceboy · January 13, 2011, 01:38:52 PM

lol Art, gaming is my therapy.

..wait a minute, million dollar idea coming..

how about a nice setup where stressed out guys, or gals, can come visit their therapists office for an hour of undisturbed gaming. leather couch, ice cold beverage, your choice of games, you think we can get insurance to cover it?

PZ · January 13, 2011, 02:35:20 PM

It's got my vote! :-X

nexor · January 13, 2011, 03:33:30 PM

Now that is a brilliant idea space, I'm sure my wife can arrange Insurance cover through Lloyds, if it's going to keep me out of her hair ;D

Art Blade · January 13, 2011, 03:41:26 PM

Hehe, good idea :) It might not be a thing for your health insurance but maybe the district you're living in could pay for it as you might convince them to see it as a prevention of some kind of drug-induced and fully armed amok run through their streets spiced up with some mind-blowing hollering and a rather bad breath. >:D

That's more like it!!! ;D ;D

Where's the therapist address again, space? |-))

Just thought I´d brag a bit about my online success >:D, unforunately seeing this at the end of a round is an extremely rare event :-()

nice job, dang that's alot of medals. I end up with no more than 4 things usually.

Hey, have you tried out the Vietnam add-on? I absolutely love it. I like the maps better than the normal BC2 maps.

Also, I assume you've seen the announcement of Battlefield 3? That should be awesome, and you PC guys will get 64 players, instead of 24 on consoles... still I'm looking forward to it of course.

Art Blade · February 08, 2011, 02:00:58 PM

wow, nice.. well done, deadman ;D :-X

Thanks, I had an extremely good run this round, I typically don´t end up with more than 3-4 pins like you. I have tried Vietnam and although I like the feel of it most of the maps are just to small and narrow when played on the PC, it´s probably because we get 32 players max and those maps really only caters to perhaps 16 or 24 ppl max. We ofcourse have the opposite problem with maps like "heavy metal" which is just so insanely large that you spend most of your time running around like a headless chicken, taking potshots from some sniper. It´s quite clear that they were made for the 64 player max that BF 2 came with. As for BF 3 just today Game Informer apparently ran an article about it and someone posted some scanned pictures from the magazine, and I have to say that those screenshots looked really sweet. The graphics seem to be similar to BC2, which is a huge plus since the BF2 graphics were´nt much to look at imho.

Thx mate :)

spaceboy · February 08, 2011, 06:36:39 PM

yeah I wondering how they'll manage the maps with BF3. I suppose just like the BC2 then, they'll probably be built for 64 (PC is the lead platform) and us consolers will have the same size but 40 fewer players. I wondered if they would have smaller versions on the consoles. Time will tell I guess. I want it of course. I never played BF2, but I have loved both Bad Co. games.

I think it´s relatively easy for DICE to rescale the maps for a smaller playercount, all they have to do is make the playable area smaller once they´ve created the map. I wouldn´t want to play a 64 ppl map with only 24 ppl.

spaceboy · February 09, 2011, 06:35:26 AM

yeah, I mean that part makes sense, but if it gets too small, things like the jets just won't w@&k (I expect) on the console versions. Or maybe they just have less room to fly. Planes worked ok in BF1943, but those were islands and of course the planes could use some non-playable space over water to turn around.

I suppose it'll all w@&k out fine, but I was just wondering.

deadman1 · February 15, 2011, 02:47:29 AM

You know how in FC2, you have to look out for flying AT:s and such. Well it turns out that the same thing applies in BFBC 2, escpecially if you´re flying a chopper >:D

Helicopter VS Car

that's hilarious! One heck of a shot on that rocket. Did you record that? How lucky to have been recording.

No that wasn´t me unfortunately :(, I suck so bad at flying a chopper that I usually give them a miss or stay as passenger.

spaceboy · February 15, 2011, 08:02:17 AM

yeah I stink at flying as well. which is too bad. A good pilot can really change the tide of a battle. I just wish there was a training mode or a bot mode or something where you could practice.

Art Blade · February 19, 2011, 04:21:17 AM

oh wow, WHOA!! ??? ^+-+ ^+-+ ^+-+ :-X
