I've been playing wow for almost 1 year now but After getting battlefield bad company 2 for pc I pretty much gave up on playing wow.

when I first bought world of war craft year ago I had lot of fun leveling my character it was really enjoyable experience but after hitting level 80 started raiding with my guild it was very interesting at first but after awhile I really got bored of it. I mean we keep doing same thing over and over every week just to get better gear until blizzard released new patch with new contents and repeat the same thing over talk about grindfest.

bf bc 2 is amazing game when I played online felt like it was real life war was going on. after loging in to my wow account I didn't feel like playing wow at all.
do you any of you guys feel this way?

WoW because I don't really consider BC 2 to be great, but I don't have time for wow now :P and I also won't be getting BC 2 until it goes down in price, because the beta was underwhelming and I already played the normal multiplayer and some sp since I have quite a few friends that consider it the second coming of Jesus. BF 3 will be another thing, that will really be a great game.

that's what i was thinking when you're playing wow you have to spend atleast 4 hour straight 4-5 day's week to raid. unlike other game you can just take break after playing for 1 hour do other stuff.

Mmmm, I love when people make comments that they give no reason to. "Bad Company 2 sucks because..........it just does."

I would go with Bad Company 2 on this choice. WoW can be fun, but it wore me out really quickly (same with EVE and LotrO). They boil down to the same couple types of kill quests where you do the exact same thing in combat (use this spell, then this spell, then this spell, etc).

Bad Company 2 has some staying power from what I've seen, and my past of being addicted (not actually) to DICE games. I played the PS3 and PC betas of BC2 for their entire durations, and I'm still having a blast in it (once the EA servers stop lolsucking I'll have even more fun).

Did I say it sucks? I love it when some people say XYZ game is the best in the world and they ignore what's obvious >_> a console game that feels and works like a console game.

And why did you assume that I would say that it sucks? is there something wrong with it, isn't it awesome? are you doubting certain aspects of it?... >_>

Underwhelming doesn't mean that it sucks, it means that it isn't a great game, just decent, I'd play BF 2 or 2142 over it any day...oh wait...I am doing just that.

You and others have a good opinion about it, me and others consider it a step back, it's how it is, that is called an opinion and you can't change an opinion, especially since it's about a game that shouldn't even be on PCs, but fans (some of which hate it) whined that we didn't get BF BC on PC, so Dice had to respond somehow.

Are you seriously telling me that the lack of prone is because of some balance decision not because it revolves around the console play style? that the movement is not floaty, that the server browser does work (but meh it has dedicated server so it's awesome but the fact that's completely broken should be overlooked) and it doesn't feel like a console game? did you actually play PC games? if you did, then you'd know it's exactly like a console game.

And stop trolling like a kid that's angry because somebody doesn't like their awesome game :/ read my first post. I did play it and I don't care how much of a PC game you think it is, because it's not, you can't change a game that was supposed to be a console exclusive to feel and act like a PC game.

It's decent, but It's not an amazing game and it certainly isn't a game that everyone must love (like any other game out there). If you like it ok, enjoy, this is not a BC 2 thread, it's about something else, if you want to disregard opinions do so in another thread.

Who cares about prone. Honestly, the only thing removing prone from BC2 has done is reduce the number of campers. which IMO is a damned good thing.

Floaty movement? No idea what you mean by that but I sure havent noticed it. If you only played the Beta, which was an engine at least 6 months old, maybe that is why. Personally i did NOT play the Beta, and only have played the final version.


The server browser is having some technical issues for some people, but believe it or not, there are current workarounds. All these tech problems will be fixed in time. Yes, its disapointing that it wasnt 100% bug free at release, but when has a DICE game ever been? Need i bring up Battlefield 2's history?

I didn't play only the beta....I also played the real game because i too have friends that consider it amazing, but after 1 hour sp and about 40 minutes mp I gave up on it for a while (played the beta for about 5 hours)....I specifically told in my first post but people don't bother reading that part because they see "beta" and then suddenly they have all the answers.

Wow is very old game it had it's time before but right now I don't think it worth it playing anymore. one of my friend still play's wow everyday he's been playing nonstop for almost 4 year. In my opinion there many great games to enjoy beside wasting countless hourt of playing wow everyday.

I don't have Battle field MC 2 so i can't comment on that game yet.

WoW is an awesome game, but I stopped playing before the first expansion due to it being extremely time consuming. I love BF:BC2 so far, and I don't plan to stop playing it for a while.

Counter-strike doesn't have prone or lean. It's not a big deal, Prone wasnt in BC1 so why would you expect it to be in BC2?

Prone is good for large-scale games because you can hide better in the bushes while you snipe people. I was kinda bugged about the lack of prone, but it is essentially a console game that they seem to have put PC-interfaces into.

Battlefield 3 will likely use prone.

Oh I don't know because these types of games need it? and probably because all the others had it? When you'll show me a CS with 64 players and a huge map or at least 32 player with a huge map without lean or prone I'll believe you. I don't care about lean, but prone...is fundamental for these kind of games, but anyway no use thinking about it since the BC series will never have prone since they are console games, but it feeling floaty like any common console game is not okay so for me personally this game isn't worth it until it reaches 25-30$ or so (it's 40$ around here).

Fun for the snipers, not very for anyone else. Leave prone out. The game is great without it.

Because not everyone has more than 2 hours per day to play games. WoW alone needs about that, and if you throw BC2 into the mix then you might as well forget about having a life - or you can just play BC2.

Or you don't have to play both the same day every day... I don't see what's complicated about that. I'm sure BC2 would start to feel like a chore if you kept playing it for a year. Right now it's fresh and fun, and when I feel like blowing stuff up I go to BC2. But for more relaxation, questing and exploring.. I go to WoW. I also don't think there's a need to choose one over the other.
