Things I hate the most about MW2 is you cannot get a feel of any sort of physics in the game world, for example bullets travel at the speed of light to an impossible long distance, and where you point is where your bullet will land no matter how far you target is, or how high up your target is relative to you. In BC2 bullets drop over distance due to gravity (if your target is on higher or lower ground, you really have to think for a second before you pull the trigger), and it takes time for bullet to travel too, so you get a great sense of physics with different weapons and different kind of bullets, just like in real life with real guns. Also you get a great sense of your characters body weight, not like in MW2 it seems like you are just a weightless floating ghost. The other thing about physics is that the only weapon that can f**k with a wall are bullets, your bullets are the only thing in the entire game that can penetrate a wall, not stealth bombers, not missile, not airstrike, not even a nuke, no no no, just bullets, and they can't even damage the wall, just somehow penetrate it. All the walls around you looks the same but too bad somehow you got killed through a perfectly intact wall. Isn't that just too f**king stupid? Well hehe, In BC2 it's more exciting isn't it? Don't you love it when you blow up a camper who's behind a wall, collapse a building with 5 enemies inside and crush them? Anyone who played the demo should understand that satisfaction. The other difference is to win a match in MW2 all you need is one really good player, he'll airstrike enemies, call in helicopters, and drop a nuke and if the game doesn't end after the nuke he'll just do it again and again. And this really good player is usually a **** camper; even his teammate will have a hard time looking for him due to all the hiding spot. In BC2 if the team sucks, no one or two or three good players can turn that around, you need team work to win, no other way around it. A team of goal oriented noobs can easily own. Camping is not much of a use too, coz if any one of the enemies saw you and tagged you, bullet storm will come. Last but not least, why don't you wanna drive and operate your killstreak rewards yourself? I know there is no stealth bomber or nuke in BC2, but there are 15 land, air and sea vehicles, who gives sh*t about bombs that can't break a wall anyway. Drive a tank through a house, that's more like it. One thing that sucked about BC2 is single player (got it last week coz for some reason Zellers was selling them before release date), it's not comparable to MW2's single player experience. Don't expect to see anything shocking or any jaw dropping moments, coz there isn't gonna be any, it's a mundane single player experience with dumb AIs. Although it was really fun to blow **** up, really. Wow sorry I blahed for so long.

MW2 is just like putting you in a giant cage and shoot each other, the tactics are short paced and fast, really a noob can become the best player on a team and the whole game is like a giant add on to the original... as for bc2 didnt like how you cant prone... but i believe its a whole lot better than MW2 because the wide open map and squad spawn, itis simpler and the marking of opponents... makes it a better tactic and a attack and defend type game is more fun than shooting each other. makes me expect more from BC2

I agree. After playing mw2 since release, I had gotten so used to the fast paced controls and unrealistic bullet physics. When i played the bc2 beta, I didn't like it at all. The sniping was so hard! I then played the demo and got used to the controls and then i had a blast. Sniping was so fun because you had to account for gravity and the time it takes for the bullet to reach its target. Even when sniping in cod4, you had to lead your target if it was a significant distance away, this is not the case in mw2.

And flying the apache helicopter is amazing once you get used to it. When i tred to play mw2 after that, i just could'nt because bc2 was so much better.

well, everyone knows noone can beat MW2's sales, all these big titles are pushed back because of MW2 was released last year holidays right? But it doesn't mean its a better game than other games. how many of you voted for Bush, he still won twice didn't he?

Mw2 is really fun because of all of the kill streaks reward and weapon customizing. Although I really like BC2 more since its more real like when you can shoot down trees and buildings and its more fun. I hated how mw2 was annoying because the kill streaks are annoying as hell against you, over powered weapons like the knife, and there is to many campers. Imo for mp BC2> Mw2 but i think Mw2 will have the better single player and specs ops where you can play with another friend

Whoever has more support does not necessarily mean better games. And for the record, Bad Company 2 will not even come close to the amount of sales that Modern Warfare 2 has.

Oh, well ok then. Well just for future refence a president isn't chosen by popular vote, but by the electoral college. When you referenced Bush though you were aware of the "scandal" that Bush had lost the popular vote but still was elected president.

I struggled to play MW2 after playing the beta version o BC2 I'm still struggling to play it I just thought BC2 was a much better game but I think itjust depends on peoples playing style as to which game they prefer. Also just a quick question in the beta version of BC2 by looking at the weapons I got the impression that you might be able to customize the weapons could anyone please inform me as to if you can or not??

MW2 being an arcade shooter doesn't necessarily mean it's worse, it's like comparing Burnout to Gran Turismo.

Comparing Modern Warfare to Battlefield is like comparing Burnout to Gran Turismo. It makes no sense! Both games are awesome, but both games have very different engines.

i know i might get flamed for it but imho comparing bf: bc 2 with mw 2 is like comparing fifa series with pes series, people play both and have fun with both but they are different games (as in simulation vs arcade)... just play with whatever makes you happy... :)

edit: sorry krsvbg, i haven't read your comment before writing mine, we said the same things... :)

krsvbg

yeah and that's what we are doing comparing the engines to each other and seeing which one each of us prefers. I mean I play MW2 and probably will even when I have BC2 but that will only be when I want that different style of shooter in BC2 it's more open and realistic but when I want non realistic fast paced shooting with amazing killstreaks and camping I will play MW2. So just because I prefer BC2 doesn't mean I actually stop liking MW2

millersigm

Yes, you can customize weapons. Not to the extent you can in MW2, but more than MAG. Basically most guns can be equipped with a red dot sight, a 4x sight (basically ACOG), and I believe a holographic or something like that. Then the sniper rifles have the starting scope, a 4x for short range, a 12x, and an adjustable scope that you can unlock. Then there are your Specialties. They work kinda like perks but more like Uncharted 2 (in the sense that they're not broken). These can include better armor, an extra grenade, increased bullet damage, etc.

Sidenote, another thing I love about BC2 is the way unlocks are presented to you. When you unlock something, It tells you what you unlocked and the gun drops in on the top of the screen and makes a kinda "bling" sound. It's cool that it let's you know in case you're getting close to an unlock but you're not sure. Even better? You can pick that newly unlocked gun to check it out in your next respawn.

So yeah, there's a decent amount of customization. Just don't expect to be "blinging out" all your guns.

I'd say MAG has more customisation than BFBC2.

Why does it matter? Honestly, they are two totally different games. COD is meant to be a closed in close quarters intense FPS. It is built based on the intense action. BFBC is based way more on teams and tactics. Saying the best player could be a noob is false. Regardless of what you think, COD does take skill. It takes a lot of reaction time, and you have to be quick. I am not a COD fanboy, I just don't see how it matters what is better. Not to mention it is your opinion. It can't be proven which is the better game, because it is all opinion.

If you cry babies would quit SUCKING at MW2 so much, maybe you wouldn't mind the Chopper Gunners, Nukes, akimbo shotguns, and campers. If you get killed by a camper once, you have NO excuse to die again. GO ****ING KILL HIM!

I don't complain, because I'm good.

Chopper Gunner? Easy. Switch to a cold-blooded class and use your Stinger to takt the bird down.

Nuke? Yeah, right. Good luck trying that **** on me. I will never let you get 25 kills in a row.

Campers? Piece of cake. You can kill me once, but it won't happen again, cause I'll know where you are.

Dual shotguns? That was patched like a month ago. The 1887s don't have a long range anymore. Quit whining!

And I played the BF:BC2 demo. There were PLENTY of campers trying to snipe me while I was planting or diffusing charges. So shup up, every FPS games has campers.

Go play with your money then
