Bad company 2

it's cheap on steam at the mo £7

*gets copy*

What was I thinking. It's an EA game OF COURSE we have to pay. Loks like those 800 MS points I have will come in handy after all. I just need to buy another 500 though :mad:

Oh and I am off all next week. Have just gotten a quarter of sticky hash and I have a feeling most of my time is going to be spent smoking and playing this :D

Off next week also, doing all my catch ups this week so next week I can just chill. Game on! :D
 
:D

Thinking about it, it was pretty clever to have the main data for the dlc on the recent map update, means that everyone only has to download a tiny file now and no server overload (and a million players bitching) to spoil the fun! Can't fucking wait to get home and try it out later.
 
Yeah I was a bit pissed off when I bought it and found I had to download that massive update to play online. Mainly because EA's history of patches put me off. They took fucking ages to download from their site. You generally had to leave it on overnight to find a failed download and try again or wait until mirrors started popping up a day or so later. When you had clan matches scheduled it could be a right pain in the arse.

Only took about an hour to DL it through Live though.
 
grabbed this at lunchtime and had a quick play - liked the new weapons and maps that I, very briefly, played.

be back online in about an hour :)

Yes - a 1MB download was all it took, fantastic!
 
The new maps look and play great but there seems to be a bug with the new weapons.

Any kills you get don't get registered towards the bronze/silver/gold star for that weapon.

I must of taken down 20 people with the AK47 but didn't get a single kill towards the AK47 bronze star.
 
I want this but another tenner? That'd be £50 just on this game.

But then you lot won't want to play boring old normal BC2, you'll all want to play shiny new paint it black vietnam version and I'll be left with all the kids with one leg longer than the other and the slight smell of wee.

Nah I love the standard game and ain't giving up on it (MW2 cost more with all that dlc)! Just got in, no work tomorrow, will be on in a bit.:)
 
Yeah, I didn't buy the DLC for that either!

I'll be about some other day, the baby has just started throwing up again. :(
 
Oh dear...

Ah yeah just played Vietnam, first impressions: is it me or does it look graphically better? It's fucking tough! And feels a bit tighter in gameplay with intense firefights. Flamethrowers are an arse ache though...
 
Yeah bloody hope so. One guy flamed me on the waters edge and I backed into the river, put the flames out then shot him in the head.;)
 
Finding Vietnam much more difficult than normal mode...... Just gotta keep at it I guess. But its got to e point I only really want to play when the squad are doing tactics and stuff. Otherwise everyone just runs around like headless llamas and it's all a bit nuts.

I noticed vietnam is 33% off if your a VIP code person today when I went on

Yup Vietnam is deffo tougher than standard game. Still great though, looking forward to the unlocking of the new map.
 
Upgraded the medic quite a bit, had a great game where there were 6 or so of us on each side fighting it out in close proximity, basically spent my time running around defibbing everyone until we overcame and took the checkpoint. Managed 20 deffibs in one round bringing me up to 100 and the medal (plus 5000 xp!). :D

The med pack upgrade is sweet, the wider area heal means tons of XP; it works through the floor too so if you're upstairs in a building and your mates are down stairs taking fire you can trawl tons of XP without getting fired upon.
