BFBC 2 is simply way much better than MW 2. And yes, it's worth it.

Random disconnections while you are in game, cant connect to servers, you click on join, and it says wait but nothing ever happens, error such as "cant find any games". There are prob more, but those are the ones i have encountered.

Do you still get into quite a few games? The same thing happens with MW2, but I suspect MW2 is worse.

That always happens on the release of an EA game. Don't worry about it, it will be fine in a week or so.

It can get annoying, but nothing that will turn you off from playing online. :) Once you get in a steady server its smooth sailing from there on. The MP is a blast overall.

The game itself is awesome, the current quality of the game though outside of the actual playing the game, trash, epic trash. They're working on it, but the things that are "fixes" should have been around in the very beginning.

yeah so far, the EA server has been having some problems, random d/cs, stats not updating. Not all the time but annoying when it happens. The gameplay is solid though, I love actual team work, playing in a squad. Unlike say mw2, where everyone runs around with a knife and ignores the objs. Seems like they have improved it since the beta. Game looks awesome as well.

Yeah it can. I just leave it on though. It was horrible with the default brightness (6.5) but I turned it down to 4.8 and it looks much better.

Yep, getting REALLY bored of MW2. Tired of all the campers, tubers, and knifers. Wondering if BC2 is worth it. I like big battles in a game with a lot going on. Do people really ever use teamwork in the game or is it more of a silent kill fest? Just want to hear people opinions on the game

Iantheone

This game is completely not worth it, especially if you're a fan of MW2, this game is terrible. It takes an entire clip to kill someone, with a saiga shotgun it takes 5 shotgun blasts or more to kill someone. This game is extremely bland and boring, there is no reward whatsoever. Just complete boredom, ontop of that there are millions of server issues apparently. You'll get luck if you're able to play the game. Teamwork isn't really used, no. This game has WAY more campers and tubers than MW2, so don't buy this game hoping to rid that. Funny thing is, it's already got more and it was just released.

Are you sure it's not because you just suck at the game (no offence)? It takes one to two shots from Saiga to kill someone up close, unless you're trying to snipe with it which is not the point of a shotgun. You can bet the server issues will be fixed soon, as it is with almost any EA game.

ALso, how is teamwork not used? You freaking depend on your squad to spawn if you want to push hard at an objective. Guess what? If you get killed by a camper you can see him in the kill cam so next time you know where he is and you can knife him in the back. Lastly, tubers are in no way worse than MW2, mainly because tubes have much worse hit detection in battlefield

Exactly! They do have issues right now, but lately I have been getting into games with hardly any lag and have played about 7 hours. I loved BF2142 and this game is a great successor for me.

They are doing server maintenance right now and adding servers, so hopefully that will help.

Right, so i went down to the store and they were all out!! This is a really good sign. Means that the PC community for this game will be quite big (MW2 didnt ever sell out down here). Alos, im not a fan of COD as such, I just play it. So I dont really care that it takes more shots to kill someone. I even played halo for a while and im sure it takes even more shots in that than BC2

You will NOT regret the purchase. It sounds like the bfbc2 server problem will be fixed soon and I highly recommend it. I beat the campaign VERY fun and the multiplayer is just a blast. So awesome :)
