DICE takes pity on the consoles, map unlocked without completing the challenge

[QUOTE="DroidPhysX"]

I wonder if the conosle version of BC2 has the medic in it, you know, that guy who has to heal others.

[QUOTE="DroidPhysX"] It does. But the people that use it dont revive dead teammates right next to them. They're in it for teh kills

No one plays it thats why

With the terrible squad chat system the lack of mics, party chat, and no way to write to eachother was this actually a surprise? If they add the old Q system from BF2 it would be perfect.

[QUOTE="lawlessx"][QUOTE="Lto_thaG"] Same thing for Enemy Territory.Rambo medics suck.

Can't say I'm surprised. The PC version has more players per round, which would increase the numbers quicker regardless of community.

I play mostly on the PS3, 360 with friends occasionally, and there's team work. Less of it, I guess, but my experience with the game on the PC was a bad one. The few lobbies I got into had over eager medics that couldn't learn there are times you shouldn't revive someone. It was so infuriating that I just left and played Team Fortress 2.

[QUOTE="lawlessx"] I remember people asking "how do you throw the med kit?"

it's even funnier that your making fun of people who don't play video games as much as you? Because that is basically all I'm getting from this? Congrats, you spend more time playing video games. You win.

Perhaps they shouldn't be behind you.

Or you could just throw down your ammo supply in a close/safe spot, so then they wouldn't HAVE to ask for it, just go to it.

Could it have been a case of less people focused on this goal that you are making out to be something that every single player should have flocked to?R3FURBISHED

That "goal" was revealed just a few days ago iirc.

So no, considering BFBC2 focuses a lot on teamwork, it's just people playing the wrong way ;)

Probably just a lot less people playing it.... there are other shooters you know like Halo and COD.

Isn't that stat for all time, not since the december 22? Where are you getting these stats becasue the one on the BC2 website is for all-time, I think.

Or maybe not nearly as many people bought the expansion on each console as on PC? I wouldn't be surprised if that were the case.

Is this really something to brag about? You pc elites are getting desperate trying to assume your complete power over gaming.

Desperate? Elites? Its a well known fact that:

PC > Consoles

No desperation needed;)

I have a pc but you do not see me trying posting everywhere about how great it is. It is so awsome it hasn't had a game of the year on gamespot since 2006. But I will play a long, I will start bowing now just to make you feel better.

Yes, i guess all the chart music is better than rock bands too because its more popular?

I think that is for all of BC2, not just Vietnam.

the day this challenge is announced is irrelevant, if less people are trying to accomplish the requirements for the challenge than it is going to take longer. No?R3FURBISHED

There is more people playing on consoles than on PC.

If the challenge was revealed just a few days ago it means noone was "trying to accomplish the requirements" for it before.

Explain these conditions, genius. It's not irrelevant :|

Lmao typical pc elitists, always trying to find something to boast about. Makes me laugh._Cadbury_

Because as we all know when something good happens for the consoles there's no console fans that boast about it.

Only PC fans boast about positive things about their platform. :roll:

and another game hardly anyone has playedxYamatox

Aww..someone doesn't want to admit that he's wrong. There's more to gaming than the mainstream.

lawlessx

yeah I know but I doubt there any more popular than the ones I named. Think on the PC counter strike 1.6 is still the most popular one. BF is is usually more popular on the PC anyways.

BFBC2 console gamers must not know how/when to calculate averages.

[QUOTE="xYamatox"]and another game hardly anyone has playedVelocitas8

Aww..someone doesn't want to admit that he's wrong. There's more to gaming than the mainstream.

It has nothing to do with the game being mainstream, and everything in the fact that it's hard to argue for/against a game hardly anyone has played.

I could say Faxanadu is the best Action/RPG game ever made, but it'd be hard to prove it if I'm the only one in the discussion who's ever played the game.

Nice, i def. gotta pop this game in again, thanks for the info

[QUOTE="Sandvichman"][QUOTE="lawlessx"] You don't need a mic to figure out if a teammate needs health or ammo.xYamatox

Perhaps they shouldn't be behind you.

Or you could just throw down your ammo supply in a close/safe spot, so then they wouldn't HAVE to ask for it, just go to it.
