I'm sorry, but those of you young 'uns who weren't there for such epic moments as me killing the entire squad in a clan match with a grenade or elD killing the entire squad with a plane or Bambi killing the entire squad with an artillery simply do not know where the fun lies.

BC2 is incredibly impressive but, so far, I've had infinitely more fun playing BF2.

I still hold that there's no real comparison to be made between the games, even if only because BC2 has no commander. The real comparison is BC2 to CoD4, I feel.

Idd BF2 is alot of fun, but the unlock system in it is rubbish;(imo) alot more time investment required, less chance of try before you "unlock" whereas BFBC2s unlock system is linear, i think for me, i resent the unlock system in BF2 and how some of the unlock guns were just "better" than the basic guns.

I have had more fun with BC2, though only in that perhaps the fun i had in BF2 was less memorable.

BF2: Take a squad in 2 vehicles cross map, take objective, guard leader.

BC2: (africa harbour) Screw roads, screw vehicles, small maps, small squads, small teams, ah ha, screw walls too!

Note- The usage of the tracer dart confuses many players.

In order to make the missile track the tracer, put your crosshairs over the red targeting box, wait for the small distance number to appear under the box, and then you can fire away.

Once you have locked on, you can aim over cover, around cover, or even backwards, and the missile will still curve around to hit your target.

Recommended tactics include tracing the protected turrets, tanks hidden mostly by cover, and landed enemy helos shortly before liftoff. It's especially helpful when combating helicopters, providing you can actually hit it with the dart.

After marking an enemy vehicle, make sure to communicate to your squad that you've done so. Then any other Engineers can lock-on, shoot straight up or around any immediate obstacles to take down the vehicle without having to move to a better position.

This, is news to me.

EDIT: While the details vary, i can confirm that its generally correct, though i wonder how many besides me arent aware of this.

EDIT2: Tracer darts stuck on people also allow for lock on.

Hey, For those people that play this game, while i wouldnt normally "brag" on the forums, i wanted to take a moment to show that magnum ammo is not required for owning people.(aprox 70% of the kills i got were with body armour[100 health * 1.25]). I have concluded, due to the amount of people i didnt kill, that magnum ammo is still worth it, but i can adapt to not using it. PS, shotgun slugs do between 100 and 50 damage, magnum ammo for reference is +25% damage, and shotgun slugs do 3x25 damage on headshots.

Non hardcore server (as defender), and my interest in rush has returned slightly.




There is an overlap in the pins shown in shot 4, only the last 6 are new.

HAX!!!

:p

The only kit I use magnum ammo on is recon with a sniper rifle - I think that other perks are more useful than magnum ammo tbh

Yeah, I had that for the first month (ie, when I actually played the game). I am so shocked that it still happens!

My only guess for why this might happen is if the server's IP has changed since you last played it
