Battlefield: Bad Company 2 stomps on the competition with ****-soiled boots.

It's at the top of the food chain.

It's the Alpha Male.

It's the mama and the papa.

It's the best FPS there is.

BF:BC2 MP>All other shooters MP. (also L4D2 is loads of fun) Halo as a series great, Halo3 garbage. COD4 the pinnacle of the series, MW2 hot garbage. BF:BC2 except for graphics is the best balance of fun, realism, and gameplay. Also best sound fidelity in the industry. (not opinion) Buy it. Halo had the console throne, then COD, now the crown needs to be passed... A fan yes, a fanboy NO. No loyalty to a corporation or franchise.

Yeah, well that's what the Battlefield franchise does to me.

And having played both Bad Company 2's Beta and demo, I can safely declare BFBC 2 my all-time favourite online gaming experience.

I was expecting more. The demo is really buggy, and I'm not sure how many game types there are but I imagine Rush will get boring pretty soon on almost any map. Also, the maps are too linear, you really don't have much choice on whether you want to flank or runstraight at your opponents.

I think he means the mechanics. Demos generally feature limited options for loadouts, maps, and gametypes. I found the demo gametype fun, but I do look forward to just killing dudes.

Ignoring some of the lag issues (mainly PC version only) I found MW2 to be a much better experience.

I've had MW2 since launch and I've had this demo for just a couple days. I've already spent more time on this demo than I have on MW2's multiplayer. Tanks > No Tanks.

Whenever i play a FPS the sniping is always what sells me on it.

That being said i think BC2 Beta>>>>>>Demo so just a warning for people saying they didnt like the demo.

This game seems to have a nice flow but what would make it stale is the single role of the gold rush mode. Its all one objective and it seems like it could get stale pretty fast. Compare that with KZ2 wich changes objectives on the fly and so far is my favourite FPS of all time. My only gripe with KZ2 is the sixaxis ruins sniping GRR.

MW2 is for fast paced (not to say BFBC 2 isn't just not a fast) and more of a one on one type gane where you can just go rambo on people.

BFBC 2 is more tactical and you have to work with you team in order to do good.

I have to disagree, I was playing on some snow covered moutain today. I was on the attack team and my team was getting creamed by some camping techniques. They they all quit, with team having destroyed only one unit. I went on by myself, against thier team of at least 3 or 4 because they were manning 3 vehicles hunting me and I destroyed 4 more of units because I was playing it like it splinter cell, taking multiple paths to confuse them and sneak around behind them. Maybe its just the map you played on or you just didn't investigate it well. Personally i had alot of fun with it today, though alot of that fun had to do with the situation I was in. I would have won to, if my stupid PSN hadn't disconnected when I was storming thier last positon for like the 10th time lol.

I was impressed with the demo.

Very realistic graphics, and sound. Even the Mics. work properly this time.

Lots of weapons and the environment as far as I have seen was phenomenal.

Falling Trees, and blown up buildings

ATVs.

It wont be as popular as MW2.. but it would be good.

Different controls and awesomeness are the best way to sum it up.

Bad Company 2 is the definitive FPS for the next generation. It literally stomps on the throat of MW2. The only degenerates who can't appreciate this game, are the fools weened on twitch shooter garbage like COD, where there is little to no strategy or balance involved. This one is a little more graceful kids, it might just go over your head.

imho: cod series = one man army soldiers on speed and paintball style combat on small maps... bf series = squad based more natural soldiers and semi war style combat on large maps... don't get me wrong i am having a blast in both series' games, however the first bf: bc proved to have more longevity than cod 4 in my case and i do feel it is going to be the same with the new one... and people, please do use your headsets for the purpose of the game, inform others of your actions and about the enemies you see instead of using the mics to annoy people with music / non-stop cursing / singing (hey it is not a guitar hero game) / shouting / background chatter... thx a lot... :)

Good game overall, can't get the full experience on the demo yet. If it will entertain me for at least 60 hours, then I'll probably buy. Otherwise, I don't believe it was what I expected i to be... but god nonetheless.

Well for the multiplayer I didn't like it, it was boring. But single player will be great.

The good: -Destructible environments might be best yet in an online shooter (???), adds an incredible amount of realism to the battle -No camping because you can blow the 2%%@ out of any building a camper is hiding in. -Tanks/Helicopters/Jeeps/ATV's/UAV's, etc. Lots of variety in ways to battle others. It's great that you actually get ti get in and CONTROL these vehicles (it's just as fun to run someone over as it is to do the typical first person shooter). -More deliberate, slower movements - some people will appreciate the added realism as part of the gameplay The bad: -24 players is better than 16 or 18, but the maps are so big it definitely feels a little "sparse" by comparison -If vehicle isn't spawned near you, it might take awhile to run to your objective (again, product of large map). -Looked like some minor to moderate screen tearing on console versions in the demo, there was none of that in MW2. -More deliberate, slower movements (some will hate that it's not a run 'n gun shooter) With 64 players and no screen tearing/superb visuals and all the destruction/variety already present in the series, I think the PC version could easily be the best online shooter EVER.
