People actually use body armor?
I play on "softcore" servers too and I've only seen maybe two people use body armor, everHe's most likely playing on softcore servers. So yes.

Which goes to show how few people actually know anything about the game. The armour perk is often far more useful, and magnum ammo only makes any real difference on ~50% of the weapons. Which is immediately negated by the armour anyway.
Assault with G3 and armour is a tank busting, face-smashing machine. Lets you get away with a lot cheekier C4 placements than without.
I never thought about this.... i normally use 870, slugs, magnum ammo. Seeing as how 75% of my kills are short range anyway, and of thtat 75% i usually end up finishing off most of them with the pistol... i wonder if id benefit from the body armor instead. Its just such a habit to click the magnum ammo.
Does anyone know of a fix for the friggen Punkbuster "Losing Key Packets 9003" error?
I've updated PB
I've ran PBSETUP
I've tried manually updating PB
I can't stay in a server for more than 10 minutes, and no it's not my ping. I've tried local and distant servers. It ONLY does this to me in BC2, no other game gives me problems. It started a few days ago, this is a new thing for me.
Is AN-94 the best assault gun?
Stats wise, yes.
It will put people down in a hurry.. But I always keep going back to my M4..
If I buy BAD COMPANY 2: VIETNAM through steam, can I just use the key to activate my non-steam version of BC2 and play it? Will steam even give me a key?
thanks
This is true, but Vietnam is also on sale on EA origin for $8.99.I don't think so, according to relevant threads on the Steam forum. I'm in the same boat, but even if you buy the Steam version of both BFBC2 and Vietnam you will still come out in front since Vietnam for retail costs $15 (or $20 in Australia...)

Couldn't resist, I bit on the BFBC2 deal with Vietnam and that other DLC for $10. I've been looking for a good FPS to cure my itch for awhile, so I'm looking forward to trying it out. I played CS competitively for years, but wasn't too impressed with the CoD series, so MW was the one and only CoD I played.
I'm totally prepared to get my ass handed to me, but I watched the "How to not be a noob" video, so hopefully I can at least help my teammates out. Going to spam Q like crazy, and possibly try out the Medic at first until I get a handle on the game.

going from competitive CS to BFBC2 will have a pretty steep learning curve unless you play assault or medic(which are the typical classes for COD players that move over to BFBC2). if you were primarily a sniper rifle user in CS you probably won't want to use sniper rifles in BC2 right off the bat until you learn the bullet drop physics with the other weapons. once you get it down its pretty easy. but either way i'd rather have a player that can't shoot worth a damn that plays as a team vs some rambo nut job that doesn't do anything to help the team.
The game seems to be on sale regularly recently with a steady influx of players that don't know what to do.
I'm not knocking the newbies as we all have to start somewhere but man alive even when I was a freshie I still had a firm grasp of what it's all about and to work for a win.
I would recommend that the newly enlisted soldiers get on a server that's empty and practice with the tanks, helis and have a look at the map layouts.
Some guy on my team yesterday was 6/34 and kept crashing every vehicle he got into...The game seems to be on sale regularly recently with a steady influx of players that don't know what to do.

It isn't the new players that bother me so much as it is the dickhead "pro" players who all team-stack so they can "own" said players and get easy wins.
So I just got this the other day with the sale. Any tips for a new guy? Just started getting my feet wet to FPS on the PC so be gentle..
I know people on here often advise people to go assault/medic first, but I found that going sniper and playing it very, very slow was the best way to get acclimated to the game. Running up as any other class would get me killed ridiculously quickly. No it won't make you the best teammate at first, but you're just trying to, as you say, get your feet wet.

No, just no. Please don't be a useless bush wookie. I've already got a platinum star with my knife and if by chance you land on my team I'll smoke grenade you every chance I get.
You'll be a much better player sooner if you don't pickup a sniper rifle for the first 100 hours.
