Battlefield Bad Company

Adam Vaughan · Jul 9, 2009

Any of you guys play this. Love this game and in my opinion one of the best FPS out there. You get so much more to the play then the likes of COD etc. If any of you guys play this add me on xbox GT: AdZVaughan :good:

Ive got it but its so boring running all the way around the map cos all the people that get the vehicles speed off without a thought for anyone else. Also i hate the film grain thing it has going on, just another way of masking the poor work by EA.

Ive just bought Battlefield 1943 for £9.99 off PS Store or 1200MS Points on 360.

My GT for Xbox is: trebor901

I love the gameplay in BF:BC, I prefer it to COD, can't wait for BF:BC 2 or BF3.

Lol @ TS: "Rocket guy on the right!"

Adam Vaughan · Jul 9, 2009

You got an xbox mark????

Gareth Hickling · Jul 9, 2009

Cant play BF BC due to there being no southpaw config as im a leftie, I just downloaded 1943 to find it has it so I will be playing that now for a while

Im usually in COD MW or WAW. Bring on MW2!

Its when you switch the run stick with the aim stick. Aim on left hand movement on right stick. I have played all my games like this as I can aim far better with my left hand.
Some left handed players adapt well to the normal config, As I have played all my games like this its too hard to try the other way around, I just cant do it

Just try a southpaw config and you will see how different I feel with the usual right handed controls in some games

I also nearly bought a modded left handed pad as I didnt think 1943 would have southpaw configuration, Now I hope BF BC2 will have southpaw! superb! Nearly £70! http://lefthandedly.com/
So you see why im glad I dont need to fork out for this hehehe.

Im a BIG Battlefield series of games fan, Been playing since 1942 came out on the PC. BF2 is game I will always play. BF2 SF warlord map. AWESOME!

Mark Birney · Jul 9, 2009

I can see that, Gareth. You got the ol' Special Ops in your avatar

I played BF2 for a while, mainly Project Reality, but it was buggy, and the engine doesn't support most of the stuff properly. I stick to ArmA

But we should have a game sometime.

I have the PS3 version, Adam.

Gareth Hickling · Jul 10, 2009

I was never a reality fan. I prefer the faster gameplay of BF2. Never tried ArmA either.

The starwars mod first strike for 2142 is very cool aswell. One of the best mods for the BF series.

This thread mad eme want to play BF:BC today. I love it! But I hate the way in higher ranks, you have to rank a couple of times (takes forever) to get 1 unlock credit.

I tried the BF43 trial, and I must say. That IS a fun game! Very tempted to get it. But not sure for PS3 or PC :/

Gareth Hickling · Jul 10, 2009

I guess its how quickly you want to play it. Gotta wait till september for the PC version.

I bought it or PS3 and loving it. It is uberfun like it used to be, only quicker, more stuff going on, nicer, BC style with everything flying to bits... It's brilliant!!

Imagine this:

I'm sneaking up as a sniper to an enemy Korean sniper sitting under a tree in a bush on top of a hill. The kills he make are rolling in like nothing and he's really quick in his aim too. I managed a sneak of over 2 minutes. The moment i got to his behind, a massive ROOOAAR comes from the side, with half a second later wwwooooeeeAAAAAAAAAAOOOOOooooooorrrooror.... He came from behind me and flew just over my head. On that moment dust flies everywhere from bullets of the other plane, who's chasing the first.... rrrrROOOOOOOOOAAaaaar. The tree falls down, we are both going for cover when suddenly everything is quiet again while we are face to face lol.... i got to knife him but man, we were both gasping at the sudden air battle. :messed:
It can really shake you up sometimes, it's all there you know, sound, explosions, bullets, tanks, squads... It's BF 1942 with all the goodies of BF BC. But only 3 (4) maps...

Like they say themselves, you'll have the best gaming fun for the summer!!

Gareth Hickling · Jul 16, 2009

I have the xbox version and I have already racked up 17 hours of gameplay already!

Its a fantastic game, Ijust hope they bring out a map pack or two

Mark Birney · Jul 17, 2009

It is really addictive fun and it is awe inspiring. Effects, details, graphics, sounds, music (new theme song composition = WOW) and animations are top notch. A really great game. Would love an MG class, but still. An amazing game for an amazing a price, and a 4th map on the way!

Gareth Hickling · Jul 17, 2009

To be fair Coral Sea is rather rubbish

Mark Birney · Jul 17, 2009

At least they're giving us something

Trebor901 · Jul 17, 2009

i wouldnt mind more guns in BF 1943, i think it would give it some more variety

Gareth Hickling · Jul 17, 2009

I find the sub machine gun terrible and ive never been much of a sniper so Rifleman it is for me!

Ben Tusting · Jul 17, 2009

we should all arrange a Day to play Bad COmpany (xbox 360)
Ashame you can only have 4 in a party(Sucks big time)

Sniping is very fun(if your an amazing shot)

Shotgun(v Hard)

Sub Machine gun and Rifleman are my choices
LMG they just don't do it for me really
