You will NOT be disappointed. Just like all Battlefield games, BC2 actually takes some thought and skill to play. There's bullet drop physics at long distances, regular spawn points rather than totally random ones, tons of vehicles, HUGE maps, and TONS of unlockables that keep you wanting to play multiplayer. I still feel that BF2 is the best online FPS of all time, but this game may actually take that prize away.

The single player is very linear, but if you take it for what it is, a humorous little story of four soldiers better suited as cannon fodder, I think you'll find it enjoyable. Battlefield was never meant to be a single player game anyway. The character development is both really funny and well done, with all kinds of racy jokes and jabs at real life pop culture and occurrences you can relate to. By the end of the first game I couldn't wait to play another 6-7 hour campaign with these guys, and this delivers well with some nice new features and some of the most beautiful graphics I've ever seen in a game.
 
I loved Battlefield 2 on the PC when it came out. I might pick it up for my 360, not sure, might be selling my 360 to put into my Formula.
 
Meh, these games are never good on consoles because the console crowd is all about mindless shooters like MW2 rather than tactical ones that require any shred of thought whatsoever.

That said, I just installed my quad core and I am blown away by the difference. I'm on max settings at 1080p getting a consistent 40FPS with peaks of up to 70FPS.
 
Bad Company 2 is teh sex!
I've enjoyed most Battlefield games from 1942, Vietnam, BF2, till this one.
And they did it again. Splendid graphics combined with awesome "not-to-realistic" gameplay.
Playing it on PC (as most fps games should be) so feel free to add me if you want.

I played and beat the single player campaign, but I'm wondering if anyone has problems connecting and playing online? I'm running it on a refurbished 60 GB PS3. I haven't tried it in a while...maybe now that I've beat GOW3...however the last time I tried to connect it loaded.....and loaded...and loaded...and then proceeded to kick me without any chance to play. Anyone having similar problems?? If so..any suggestions?!?!

It is.

You know how MW2 has a new map pack you have to pay FIFTEEN ****ING DOLLARS for? I signed on to BC2 (PC) and the newest maps are already there. For free. Not only is the game better, Dice also doesn't try to rape your wallet at every turn for a mediocre game.

PS3 I have no idea. With PC as soon as I heard they would be taking every single multiplayer feature out to make the PC multiplayer as terrible as Xbox matchmaking, I never gave it a second thought. Xbox is where their market is, and they're just bending you guys over with the pricing. Two of the maps aren't even new, they're just from COD4!
 
I want this game, and gonna get it soon, I'll see u all online when I do. :)

I do. I've been playing for hours every day this week. This is one of the best online multiplayer games I've ever played.
 
I play this on Xbox, and used to play Mw2 religiously. I switched to this game because Mw2's bs was getting to be too much for me and sold Mw2 the next day after getting this. But now I'm letting my friend borrow BFBC2 and I'm back on Mw2 because BFBC2 is just... too slow paced for me... Don't get me wrong, awesome, awesome game. Which Mw2 would have done destrucible buildings and all that but, unfortunately not.

Hardcore rush isn't slow paced at all.

EDIT: So I'm getting pretty good at sniping pilots out of helicopters now. 5 kills with one shot just feel great. :D

I really hate Hardcore mode. It's just a bunch of pansies sitting in bushes in random spots of the map w/ snipers lol.

My XBL GT is my name. :)

Doesn't surprise me on Xbox. On PC once you find a good server with good players its a total blast. I never even bother with non hardcore servers anymore. I like the more realistic feel of it, as well as a .338 round (used in real life to shoot through engine blocks, and can go through 5 layers of body armor and still kill at over 1000 yards) actually taking someone down in one shot. Nothing pisses me off more than sniping in non hardcore, placing a perfect center of mass shot on someone, and having them sprint away, or having to unload an entire magazine of .223 into someone to kill them.

Keep working at it! This game actually takes skill to be good at. Bullets drop like they do in real life. And most of all, work as a team! Battlefield has ALWAYS been a team game, and when you try to play like Modern Warfare (Or Counterstrike for the older BF games), you will ALWAYS fail.

If anything, be the squad medic. For every resuscitation of a squad member, you automatically get 80 points. It's a fast way to unlock powerful guns and to level up.

I played Hardcore. I don't know, it's just not as fast paced as mw2 in any gametype for me... I play Search and Destroy on mw2 but even THAT'S fast.
