Battlefield Vietnam let you do this...

Was just one of the tunes you could blare out the Huey alongside "Surfing Bird" et al.

:cool:
 
whilst in most areas the patch wa good sadly it now means the knife is as much use as harsh language in dealing death
 
Oh man why do you have to unlock the stuff that makes the classes work!? 1000 point grind for each one too...

I've found BC2 really hard to get into, maybe it's playing MW2 for ever and a day but I just can't get my head around it.

The spawning miles away from the M-Comm units is a pain and as soon as I get close I'm taken out by a sniper.

I've tried to get into a vehicle but as soon as I spawn they're already racing towards the targets.

:(
 
I've played a fair bit of BF1943 so knew what to expect but yeah it's deffo a change of gear for your average MW2 player!

Btw you know you can spawn into a squad closer to the action right?

This is one of the most important aspects of the Rush games. Spawn where your squadmates are and get straight into the action. Or, if there's no one near where you want to go, change squads and spawn. There's an art to knowing when to rush into the action or to sit tight in a valuable spot and act as a spawn point for the other three guys in the squad.

Agree about the grind though, but it does give you motivation to keep playing.
 
Cool will do.

Just finished the single player game, actually enjoyed it more than MW2, characters were actually quite entertaining, some good set pieces too with a story that was a bit more grounded and not so idiotic...
 
I'm playing a lot of BC2 currently but the servers kick you off before you get to the end of a round sometimes, and you lose all your points.
Other than that, superb.

It is still a bit buggy but I have never lost my points when it has crashed or booted me - always seems to cache them and upload when I next log on.

if you are behind a router disable upnp - this helps in a lot of cases - makes it hard to host stuff behind the router mind but at least you can play
