Battlefield Bad Company 2
-
I have only been playing for two days. I have not been a console gamer and this is the first FPS I have bought in a while cause it looked good.
Is it common nowadays to get awards for EVERYTHING you do in a game?
Award for killing so many in a round.
Award for double kill as sniper
Award for tank killing
Award for wiping own butt after taking poop.
Award for flushing after said poop.
Award for proper tying of laces on combat boots
Ad Infinitum...
Not sure I care so much for the UNLOCKING of weapons and upgrades. If it is gonna be combat then start off with a full kit. Although I guess it gives added incentive to those of us who are not that good to keep playing in the hopes that it is a lack of higher end weapons that causes us to die so frequently.
Any other players out there who feel the same way? -
In crackdown 2 the dude who gives you your orders audibly informs you of your accomplishments.
"Great work Agent! You've killed 25 Freaks with thrown objects. THAT'S an Achievement!"
Pretty hilarious IMO. Pretty soon they start to taper off though, since you eventually find yourself left with the obligatory "You've played this game for 650 hours, here's your 10 Gamer Points" stuff. -
Ah, have not played any of the new (since HL 2) FPS's. Game is better with some weapon upgrades. Seems to be a pretty big hacking community. I have seen 3 or 4 bans for hacks in the past 24 hours. Punkbuster... who would have thought they would still be around.
Stupid addictive game. Like cs but bigger maps better graphics/sound/weapons/gameplay. Seems no one talks on the servers, I guess everyone is using vent. I have heard one human voice online since I started playing. also they need to nerf the lower powered weapons down at long range. Seems they have unlimited range and a minimum hit value. not sure. will look into it someday. -
whats your ingame name so i can add you?

It's not as bad as MW2. MW2 is the WOW of FPS.

Lacking creativity and wanting to start playing before I read the instructions and spoiled the fun..... Hexenwulf. How original eh? -
I went on a grind to get some upgrades. I have discovered a new disease. VPTSD Virtual Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. If no one has taken a serious look into it I suggest we tell the medico types about it. Seriously when I would close my eyes for hours afterwards all I could see was a volley of Bradley fire coming at me, with some sniper shots thrown in. I am not kidding. Never going to play that much of that game in a 24 hour period again.

I played again last night, and it was significantly more fun than the first night (not that the first night was boring or anything). I had an absolute blast. I'm still terrible, but I'm at least killing people now.
I've mostly played hardcore thus far, and I like it a lot. The gameplay seems far more intense. -
Yes, at first you hate it. Then it becomes more fun. Then you get pissed and go on a 24 hour grind and regret it.
I actually had to start using my old school infantry tactics to play the game. CS it is not. Played for about a week before I looked at the instructions to see how to fly a chopper/UAV and how to use the parachute. Probably would have saved myself several embarrassing "EPIC FAIL's" by reading the instructions and spoiling my fun.
Speaking of time to play a bit more. -
Ha. I got in a helicopter yesterday, and it was a spectacular failure. I did manage to shoot down another helicopter that was flying straight at me as I took off, but then I promptly flipped the thing over and crashed into the ground. For now, I will stick to the gunner's chair.

I wouldn't say that the weapons do more damage. I would say, you have less life. -

In Jammy's case, its less skill.....
