I've heard it's exactly like Battlefield 1943, which is a good thing. I used to have it but traded it in. I'm gonna buy it again for the multiplayer. what i wanna know is, how is the community. is it hard to find matches and does it run smoothly?

Its great. People still play it and it only takes like 10 seconds to find a match. But for some reason every ranked game lags like crazy for me. But player matches are smooth.

The lag went away for me, but to answer your question yes BC has a very good online community. You may be able to find a game in 3 to 5 seconds, thats how long it takes me.

It is simply fantastic. I love it completely, and find it better than the Call of Duty series (for Xbox at least).

Squad system isnt very good and i dont like gametype (gold rush) as much as battlefields ussual gametype conquest but it has big maps, unlockable weapons and its overall a good experience for what it costs. $20 i think

The game has both goldrush and conquest, both seem to have a very strong online community

I totally agree. It's one of the only shooters I play online ATM because it's so easy to find games and addictive too. I find games like CoD get boring after 5 or so games.

I have the game and you can always find people playing. I mean it takes me less than a minute to join a game and other than the occasional server lags, it runs very smoothly.

Its fun. If you like BF 1943 you should like BF BC. Be warned that the hit detection can get all skrewy.

Woah I love it. Prefer it over Call of Duty 4 or 5 even! You really have to try it, its amazing, rarely lags for me and finding games is easy. You can also play very flexibly so maybe now you'll snipe and maybe on the next game or if you start loosing, you'll play as the Support class and hose people down with your LMG. It really is wonderful now that they added the Conquest mode.

It's great, I prefer it over COD 4 too. It's really easy to pop into a match.

it is one of the best military shooters available for this consoles. i would argue it's much more deep than the run and shoot gameplay of COD4 with it's tiny maps and the lack of destructible environments and vehicles. bad company 2! omg pre-order!

For me, it doesn't really compare to COD. It's a lot slower paced. But, for $20 it's a nice change of pace. :)

BF:BC was great online, but I haven't played it in a several months. ight have to go fire that up now. BC2 is gonna be awsome when it comes out. Never would have thought in this day and age that only 2 MP modes would be enough.
