The Official Battlefield: Bad Company 2 Thread
The hype video:
YouTube - Battlefield Bad Company 2 - Official Battlefield Moments - Episode 1
The commercial (all in-game multiplayer footage):
YouTube - Battlefield: Bad Company 2 - TV Advertisment
The info:
Infantry and vehicle based modern day FPS for 360/PS3/PC. Single player and 24-person (32 for PC, 4-person squads), 4-mode Conquest | Rush | Squad Rush | Squad Deathmatch (3 of which are objective based), class-based (4 Assault | Recon | Engineer | Medic), multiplayer.
*There are bullet physics (bullets drop over distance and you must lead moving targets).
*Classes/weapons are customizable.
*The sound effects are unreal.
*Voice chat is intra-squad only.
*Single player missions are non-linear ('sandbox').
*You can blow shit up (dynamically, you can collapse entire buildings [even on objectives], and punch holes in cover).
*Enemies will only show on your map if you have spotted them (aim at them and press back/select/q, or through the use of various kit upgrades/gadgets, lasts 15s), not by firing their weapon. You will get XP if someone kills them while you are spotting them.
*You can shoot through a helicopter using the .50cal and kill the pilot.
*There is a night map (see the latter below).
*Two additional map layouts Laguna Alta | Nelson Bay (along with 6 early unlocks [4 kit upgrades Improved Vehicle Armor | Vehicle Alternate Fire | Vehicle Motion Sensor | Tracer Dart Pistol, 2 weapons M1A1 | M1911]) will be available at launch for those who purchase the limited edition ($15 for the maps without, every copy in the first run will be the '$60 limited edition' though).
*1 weapon unlock M1 exclusively for Battlefield Veteran members (requires owning 2 Battlefield games, and Battlefield Heroes is free, so basically everyone can get this).
*1 weapon unlock M1903 is unknown how to unlock.
*4 unknown unlocks will be available through codes found on specially marked bottles/cups of Dr. Pepper. Lol.
GameStop Midnight Launch Locator
*GameStop preorder includes an additional early unlock (weapon AKS-74) and early access to the squad rush mode, which normally doesn't unlock in the US until 30 days after release.
*Amazon has the 360/PS3 versions of the game for $60 with a $20 credit and free shipping.
US Release: 3/2/2010!
EU Release: 3/5/2010
Post your system/tag and I will add it to the op so we can assemble. Please indicate if you don't have a mic.
