Battlefield BC2

[The Brain]

So what's the deal with this one? Will it be good? Will people be getting it?

[Neil]

Played the demo.  It's fun if you have a good group of friends to squad up with.

[DisturbedPervert]

I'll probably get it.  From reading about it they didn't consoletard the PC version like call of duty.

I have an Amazon pre-order in for the 360 version.  It was ~$53 & comes with a $20 Amazon gift card.

I liked the first Bad Company more than I thought I would, despite the retarded things like AA guns being used as indirect-fire artillery.  The storyline in this one is supposed to be a little more serious-- same characters but the humor will be more subtle.

[The Brain]

the humor will be more subtle.

God I hate that.

[DisturbedPervert]

the humor will be more subtle.

Even in multiplayer? 

[derspiess]

Even in multiplayer? 

No, that will have the exact same level of subtlety.  I didn't play a whole lot of multiplayer with the first BC, but I liked it a bit better than CoD4 or MW2.

[The Brain]

Just played a little MP. Seems reasonable, but I haven't played  a BF game in a long time. I am rusty. 32 player max blows.

[Tamas]

After MW2's 12 player max it will be awesome.

Do tell me however: can you filter for hardcore servers. I want to be a sniper and I can't with killcam.

[The Brain]

Not directly in the filter menus as far as I can make out.

AND HOW THE FUCK CAN YOU PLAY IT ONE DAY PRIOR TO EUROPEAN RELEASE?!!!!!

AND HOW THE FUCK CAN YOU PLAY IT ONE DAY PRIOR TO EUROPEAN RELEASE?!!!!!

Europe != Hungary. I have always gotten the information that European release was today.

Steam told me it was the 5th.

Steam told me it was the 5th.

Then Steam seems to work. Steam told me it would be released the 4th, which apparently is correct for my country.

Are you implying that they have different release dates within Europe and Steam enforces it through IP addresses? What major retardation!
