I'm with this guy. I prefer Call of Duty to Battlefield and your exclusionary rules can't command me to state my opinion here. The mess of a multiplayer experience offered by BC 1&2 saw to my future FPS online shooter to be MW3 and any other Call of Duty. Good Day Sir
Fine, you can like Call of Duty, but I would like to hear more about this mess of a multiplayer experience you found in Battlefield... Ever since 2002 Battlefield has had exceedingly smooth multiplayer experiences.I'm talking just about the Bad Company series, not the Battlefield series as a whole, since this is the Battlefield series I have played in comparison to Call of Duty. Just to me Bad Company is horribly unbalanced, especially to new players. My friend and I have recently picked up BC2 because we were tired of Black Ops, but have gotten stomped on every single occasion simply because we aren't high enough levels.
In a system where guns have obvious differences, that make them better than the lower level weapons, being a new player to BC2 is just painful. When players who simply hit level 14 get the ability to take more damage (Body Armor), and at 15 the ability to deal more damage, new players are just being brutalized because they didn't pick it up and play it earlier with everyone else.
I genuinelylike the multi-player, but it's just painful to keep playing when balance issues make the overall experience hard to get enjoyment out of it. I like to play the medic role, and because I don't want to pay 15$ for weapon and gadget unlocks, I have to unlock the ability to become a medic (the ability to throw health and defib players). Engineer is always fun, but vehicles (tanks and choppers) are hard to take out and having to grind to good rocket launchers and AT mines make the class useless for new players. Only the Recon and Assault classes feel good to play from the start, but atill are held back because of the level 14 and 15 specializations.
I'm only forming my opinion off of being a new player to the BC2 multi-player aspect, but this is the most important part of the multi-player experience from my perspecitive. I would assume since it's so hard to start out that the game becomes more and more fun as time progresses, but to be quite honest I don't want to keep grinding out loss after loss to get to the higher levels to get to the "fun" it has to offer. On a side note I will say Battlefield 1943 was just a blast to play, to show I'm not just full of spite.
