Anyone who rates this game less then a 7.5, I can't give you any creditability. You won't regret buying this gam
Okay,
I'm seeing a lot of mixed reviews after the Sunday march 7th event, when the connection issues got the worst, but are now fixed. That happens people. Everything was so flooded, the servers could not keep up with PB and the EA online working against them. The game has been out less then a week, give it time.
To the newb that gave it a 5.0 and said "it's not 20% of mw2" go study up on your battlefield history. I wouldn't trust their review, if you look this is the same person that gave Frontlines Fuel of War a 9.5! HAH. Almost everything in mw1 and 2 is not original. Yep, a lot of mw1 or 2 multiplayer was straight up stolen from the battlefield series or couterstrike. A Few developers at Activision and Infinity (Crap) Ward previoulsy worked for Ea, and it show's.
I'm 27 years old. I've been playing the battlefield series since 1942 with road to rome like a lot of you veteran gamers. Everything from BF heroes' to 2142 and northern strike. I played the crap out of Battlefield 2 with all the expansions and special forces. Battlefield in my eyes can do no wrong. Call me a fan boy if you will. It's amazing how BC2 makes Mw1 and 2's multi player look so terribly bad. Yet battlefield was TEN dollars cheaper for pc players. Mw1 and 2 mp is so far from warfare, 9 vs 9 mp without vehicles is hardly warfare, the original cs had more players then that.
Like one review says "The Sheer destruction alone is worth the money" - It's true. This sets a new standard for online warfare shooter. I won't play it unless I can blow stuff up. BFBC2 HAS A LOT OF FIRE POWER AND A LOT TO BLOW UP.
The game looks great on pc, it may be a graphics and resource pig, but I've seen it played just fine on medium setting using a 8800gtx, dual core pc. I currently play it on ATI's 5870 series and the i7, so I'm running smooth, it supports dx11 which adds some nice new features. When you see buildings start coming down to the ground you will respect the graphics, and the frostbite engine.
THE SOUND - The sound couldn't have been done better, I'm positive developers and game design schools will be using it to learn from.
As time goes on and patches come out, this game will just get better and better. if you are a hardcore skeptic, wait it out . buy it when the price goes down or go to a friends and check it or for yourself.
I'm amazed BFBC2 actually had a real single player, with cut scenes and all. I mean since BF has been specializing in online warfare since 1942 and not single player so much. I was impressed with that, and I enjoy playing it.
Me and many of my friends have purchased this game upon release for 50 dollars for the limited edition and no one I know regrets their purchase. We play it daily.
