So I know some ppl are having server connection issues with BC2 but hopefully that will be fixed in a few days. From what I have played of both these games Bad Company 2 is alot more intense and fun than Team Fortress 2. The maps look amazing, especially the desert ones. There is nothing that comes close to sprinting down a road with tanks and humvees rolling by, dust blowing everwhere and sniper bullets whizzing past your head. The Rush mode is also an amazing addition.

Here is the video for those who haven't played the game to see what I talking about: LINK(watch in HD)

I own TF2 and I have only played the BC2 beta but BC2 is definitely the winner(more intense, more dynamic strategy, etc).

I never cared very much for TF2, but it is definitely better tailored for online than BC2. BFBC2 is still more fun though.

TF 2 BC 2 is pretty fun, but it's not as good as TF 2, quality wise, maybe it's also because TF 2 is an unique game with a different art style, because BC2 is pretty much like all the rest.

My god what is wrong with you people! Tf2 is wayyyyyyyy better right now. Tf2 is very established and has a great community. On the other hand BC2 is a great game, just the fact that it is as bug ridden as an ant hill makes me hate it right now though. (Friends list is bugged, server joining is bugged, punk buster is bugged, EA server errors, Login errors). If BC2 fixed all those bugs I could see it being quite a nice game. Not quite up to the caliber of tf2, but still fun. It is for sure better than MW2 though.

I liked BFBC 2 a lot more than TF2, but then again i didn't like the artistic style of the people and i do like realistic shooters.

I'm a very picky multiplayer gamer. Battlefield games are mostly the only competitive MP games I've liked (Vietcong was alright, though). I appreciate TF2 for what it is, but it's just too runny-jjumpy-spazzy for me. It's that cIassic fragfest styIe of gameplay from online games like Quake and UT that I've just never really been into. BC2, on the other hand, retains most of the elements of Battlefield games I enjoy most.

BC2 only been out less then a week and ppl already jumping to conclusions. I love TF2 and enjoying BC2 but ive played BC2 for 4 days and TF2 for over a year. Maybe BC2 will get boring.

Valve wentap3sh1t on TF2 after the medic update. The game is ruined. I'm sorry but you missed the good TF2.

I played the PS3 demo of BC:BC2 and it has very shallow gameplay if you've seen ET:QW in action.

'Buy none of them' would be the correct answer. Save money for ET:QW 2 which will be released in Nov 2010 under the name Brink

Nice matchup, TC.

I going to say TF2. BC2 is a great game. I just find TF2 to have some more slight advantages over BC2.

TF2 gets boring, and is just plain annoying. I like it though.

BC2, atleast the beta. Was amazing, couldn't stop playing, even on that one little map.

THose two games are really different, and does not cater to the same crowd...

I do Prefer BF:BC2 tho, since I generally like the BF series ^^ the dynamics are far better in there, and players can make impacts that are further reaching then they usually can in TF2.

TF2 is a faster game, alot more simple in its construction, it is a "jump in and play" kinda game, which is good and fine ^^ and some people prefer that.

I will not decide between two of my favorite FPS. They are both awesome in their own respect.

tf2, never have i played a game that can be so fun while playing casually and so fun in a competitive manner. bc2 is fun for a while, however sometimes it feels a little to slow because people are always sniping for some reason (worse than tf2), at least on the servers i have played on

You really put me in a difficult choice here, TC. Both are amazing team-based games. But I suppose BC2 is basically like a battlefield version of team fortress ( considering the Rush mode with attack/defend added with vehicles and huge maps ).

Sorry, I can't choose. I love them both equally :D

Well battlefield heroes sucks unless you want to dash out a lot of money to buy "Ultimate Points"

And even if you had unlimited of those for free TF2 would still be better

I own both BC2 and Hat Fortress 2.... I couldn't care about HF2 at all, I get bored really quickly when playing, maybe cause I suck or cause none of the classes interest me... I've clocked a lot of hours in BC2, not to mention it's way "funner" to play that with 3 of my friends since we can always stick together thanks to the Squad system.

I prefer TF2. That game is always fun. I don't feel like playing BC2 as often, but I really enjoy that game too. Easier to get bored of, though.

bc2 is an amazing game, and well balanced multiplayer.

the only problem is bc2 has no shuffles after matches. and the only autobalance is for team sizes. and the admins are not the same as bf2, its all new guys who don't care. and just want to to keep squads of friends.

so almost every single server in bc2 is stacked. if you join conquest mode, that means all 3 or 4 capture points are all by one team, while they are pwning the base. and it will stay like this for hours since there is no shuffle after matches or any autobalance based on scores.

SO....the motto in bc2 has now become, switch teams or servers after a match. until you are on the stacked team as well. which is pretty lame.

a couple admins have tried a community modded autobalance like many had in bf2. but the little 10 yr old bots wouldn't stop complaining about it, and it was kind of shabby anyways.

so no autobalance based on scores... and no shuffle after matches, are things i hope they implement as an option in bf3. or I won't bother buying it. BC2 is an amazing game though very well though out as far as gameplay balance. between weapons and classes and vehicles etc....which ea dice always improves upon with each release in this regard, and it really shows.

there is no cheeziness to exploit in the game like cod. none at all. its a super balanced MP. its just that you can't leave it up to the players to balance teams anymore. the community is def not the same as bf2. and I hope EA dice addresses the team stacking issue in bf3.

TF2 doesn't appeal to me while I love BF, so...
