BC2 - thoughts - complaints

Well I can tell you one thing, the single player game in BC2 is freaking terrible and the dev team should feel embarrassed for putting that shit in a "AAA" title. Terrible pacing, terrible plot, no suspense, characters that all suck, retarded tricks like taking all of your weapons away after 5 second cut scenes, enemies that pop out of nowhere (even after you destroy the entire area with heavy weapons), tons of useless weapons, scene transitions that make no sense, weather that changes at specific points for no reason, giant ammo crates laying around every 30 yards, squad mates that never kill anything, and enemies that will chase and follow you around even when you are out of sight... The whole thing makes the single player in MW games feel like an epic achievement in game design.

The multiplayer is fun though! :)
 
I like the characters, but the story and the way it plays out sucks (no chance to shine). It feels like I'm playing COD2 again.

Multiplayers suffers the curse of all BF titles, bad hit detection. I had people over for a little LAN looking over my shoulder as I unloaded a clip into someones arm that was peeking around a corner with no hit being detected and the guy just bunny hopping out and killing me or snipers sitting behind magical invisible parts of hill tops that you couldn't shoot through, but they sure as hell noticed you after a bit and casually pop you. Or being able to shoot from across the map into spawn areas or guys running around spawn areas with knifes killing people as they spawn or knifing people a dozen times before they turn around and kill you with one knife stroke.

Other then that, fun game!

why? there is a 5000 post topic on BC2 in the pc forum, this looks like a troll thread...
 
Typical EA game. Great marketing. Could have been a great game. Terrible support and aftermarket. Made their money and now they don't have to support it at all.

Ignorant posts like this further confirm the troll thread. This game has actually been through a few patches including a HUGE one that fixed a lot of things. And based on community feedback a second ginormous patch for xbox and ps3 was rolled out today. And PC version patch coming out tomorrow.

While I agree the SP is quite lacking, dev support is quite FAR from non-existant. Not only that the anti-hack efforts alone already 1UP the other modern warfare shooter (mw2). While I agree EA has its faults, DICE and bc2 has been rather great and I believe many will agree. So quit ur trollin unless ur sure you know what ur talkin bout.

Hardly an ignorant post. I was playing throughout the beta, and I'm a server admin. The patch fixed a few things, broke a lot of things, and balanced weapons that didn't need to be balanced.

For instance, all servers that have any non-default settings like Killcam off are listed as Hardcore servers now. Utterly ridiculous and it's still not fixed. They nerfed the 40mm Shotgun, which 3 people used before, and now no one will ever use it. No community to make sure the game lasts for years (map making, mods, skins, etc.) because it's a console port. Game's fun, if it worked the way it should.

Same here,

Got quite a few beta keys from our BF2 GSP and been playing it from the get go.

Worst roll out of a product I've ever seen. Simply horrible. Half the time these inept fools go to fix something, they brick something else. Our server went from No.1 in the world to 60th (and still dropping), because of their inability to get things right.

We actually turned off PB streaming because one of the patches made the search function for PB do the opposite. That's not a minor glitch or oversight. I'm going to have to assume Moe, Larry and Shemp are doing the programming over at DICE.

Just setting up a server has been a monumental pain the ass. We rent a separate server at an additional cost to run an rcon client to control the BC2 server.

We're currently bracing ourselves for the R12/R13 server version. God knows what they'll screw up.

The game has limited appeal and re-playability. Many of us are already tiring of the confined, contrived, and poorly thought out game modes.
 
The same maps over and over again, not to mention EA/DICE releasing the same maps over again as NEW GAME MODES to attempt to freshen up the rotation... pathetic.

Yeah I remember that PB debacle, what a crock, it literally was probably a line or two of code to fix that and it took how many weeks?

Yep. They make such a big deal about releasing free 'map packs' as compared to MW2 and then what do they do? They add a couple of M-COMs to existing maps, release it and call it a day. Sad.
 
Im sure they will come out with actual new maps. At least they are putting patches out fairly fast.
 
one problem would have to be the gustav which is like the direct shot from tf2 with decent splash... even got the platinum for it 2 days ago which is post patch (havent noticed a decrease in killing effectiveness of gustav ever after patch, guess I never relied on splash too much) and I stopped playing for like a month before that and ive probably only used this gun 30mins a day before switching class for a week and a half total maybe

http://img441.imageshack.us/i/66843118.jpg/

also have been abusing this reload thing where your clip updates before the animation even finishes (sometimes even HALF way thru the animation) and I just quickly switch to pistol and back so I shoot rockets and what have you so fast maintaining like 3-5k/d consistently... feel so guilty lol

still not 100% on shooting with snipers on moving targets sometimes even after all this time... sometimes I shoot a full 2-3 dots above the target really far away to rake in the marksmen shots and sometimes I only need to aim a half notch above someone at what I could swear is the same distance... not to mention yesterday I literally shot my last round for my sniper (you stay scoped) and I saw the shot hit the guys chest, blood flys out, but NO damage indicator or kill.... the hit detection is such bull in this game I even heard they screwed with it so you have to hover over your target for like .25 seconds before attempting to kill them otherwise it wont hurt them... some sort of anti-hack bullshit... couple that with lag and you have a broken game

overall though the games still fun and im sure they'll balance things more... hopefully
 
Best way to deal with threads like this is to ignore them rather than perpetuate the trolling, guys.
 
I have not bought this game due to:

1. No Prone
2. Sniper Scope view
3. No availability of Dedicated Server files

You are missing out. As an old veteran of BF2 and 2142, I feel this game is the best online massive shooter out there.

Put a few hours into the game and you'll forget that the action prone even existed.

And, really, how can you complain about a game until you've actually played it?

1. Imo, prone would make this game worse. Im glad they didnt add it. Snipers already blend in pretty well at long distances and there isnt much to hide under considering the majority of buildings/enviroment gets destroyed. I dont understand how/why prone is so important to some people.
2. What is wrong with the view?
3. Sure they could have impemented this server files, but the game is already a blast, and I dont see many people complaing about it once they start playing.
 
I think a lot of people think that the beta sniper scope actually made it into the real game.

I have no real faults with the game, there are a few quirks here and there, but they don't matter in the grand scheme, it's just so much fun to play.
 
The game is nearly all good, just a few bugs and lag issues since R7
 
Few things that piss me off. The first 2 items: the PP-2000 and F2000. Those guns ARE way to powerful/accurate for being such small calibers.

Knifing is stupid at times as well. I can sneak up, stab someone, go through the animation only to be shot by said person.

Also, it's way to fucking easy to get hung up on bullshit when moving through the map or buildings. See a little step heading into the house? Think you can just run across it? Nope. You get stuck on it only to have to jump over it.

I do however, find all the whiners in-game funny as hell. One guy sent me a message on XBL crying that I needed to stop knifing him or he was going to report me. So I just knifed him all the time each round.:p I am a dog tag whore. So if you whine to me about being dominated, I will just keep racking them up on you. :p

All in all, those are my only complaints. The game is fun.
 
I really hate how a 5870 + 3.6ghz C2D can't run this game with everything on high with 100 fps.

i really don't have a prob with pp2000 since i think the ump is the best engineer weapon, and the f2000 it takes a whole clip to kill someone, it seems like the most accurate and high rate of fire weapons get the most kills.

its really stupid to balance out weapons, that pretty much ruins the reputation of the weapon
 
other than everyone wanting to be a sniper is....the hit detection sux..
im shooting a guy point blank and it takes literally half the clip or more to take them down. from an Aug or one of the LMG guns the medic carries
 
I don't have the hardware to run it (well) yet...

Thinking of what it will be like when i get done with my summer upgrades (i7, 5870) makes me all jittery with anticipation.

And I'm personally glad that I need to upgrade to play it. I'd prefer game devs don't cater to the lower end machines, which I believe is a category mine has slipped into. I can run it on all low decently, but after seeing how beautiful the game is on all high, I just can't play without wanting to crank the settings.
 
meh I stopped play after only getting it like 5 hours of game time. I couldnt even begin to enjoy it with all the problems I had
I always meant to check it out but I dont have alot of free time to tinker around with a game just to get it to work how it should out of the box SMH

theres no problem with consoles*
 
Ok, other than the problems with hit detection and knifing, I think they need to increase the recharge rate of the defibrillators so that a medic cant run around in circles and revive people. Because of the bad bullet hit detection, this is possible.

Also, I think they need to have an optional upgrade or whatever to go into "stealth mode", or something to allow you not to be spotted or picked up by motion detectors in non HC servers. I think the spotting is a little ridiculous and takes away from of the strategy. Dont get me wrong, i like spotting, but i think they should make it harder.

With the exception of the AEK 971 and the AN-94 (which are both 5.45x39,,) all the assault rifles are chambered in 5.56x45mm:confused:

I have no problems with the defib. rate, but I do have a problem with the 1.5 second invincibility time each revived guy gets. If they're going to make the revive invincible for a short time-span, then they need to also remove their ability to shoot.

Agree, I was playing a sniper on a map and killed someone guys crossing the street that a medic then went to rev, rather then shooting the medic I thought I would wait for the two guys. When I took my shoots at them nothing happened and one of the guy just popped up and shoot me with his assault rifle, WTF!
 
lol i didnt even play sp. The game rocks in muiltiplayer all except the devs took away knifing in the back for some reason.
 
Too many snipers, if anything sniping should be made much harder in all online games, too many snipers drive me nuts. People think they are good because they can kill someone that has no chance to kill them, yippee

+1 they need to come up with some kind of restrictions on how many snipers can be on one team, for christ sake you waste almost an hour on rush offensive getting raped sideways because your team doesnt want to get killed so they go recon.
