Battlefield: Bad Company 2

I've played the original Bad Company. Even though I am a Halo-fan, I find myself enjoying a lot of other stuff, like for example BF:BC. Now, when I first bought this game, I was a little disappointed about the graphics. I mean, the graphics aren't bad, it's just that I honestly think they were better and more realistic in the first game. Still, Bad Company was totally awesome, and it would be really hard to beat that. I'm not sure, but I think I heard somewhere that they worked pretty hard on that game. Still, the quality of Bad Company 2 are just fine. In fact, they're better than most games. Now, even if you at times could have expected more on that front, there's a lot of great stuff about this game that can't be ignored. The campaign is good. It's exciting, well thought out, and maybe a little more variety here than in the first game. Some of the missions are kinda short, which isn't great, but it doesn't make the campaign bad. It's still great. I enjoy re-playing the campaign. I find the weapons and vehicles to be fun, but it seems like they could have had a little more weapons. Still, in the multiplayer, there are tons of guns and vehicles, a lot of it can't be used in the campaign. Now that sucks, that you can't use all weapons in the campaign, but it's not that big a deal. The multiplayer however, is amazing. It's tons of fun, and the maps are huge, just as in the first game. One thing that they've changed in this game is that you now get 50 points for killing a dude, while in the first game you only got 10. Now, it's the same value, of course, but when you get more points, it just feels funnier to play. Anyway the campaign is great, you can blow stuff up everywhere and killin' people is just so much fun. There's a lot of variety here too, you know in weapons, vehicles, tactics, and environment. Something I almost forgot was, the destruction. Lovin' it. You can blow up virtually anything. Houses, trees, towers, vehicles (ofcourse), bridges and other structures, they can all be destroyed. If you jump in a tank, you can probably just drive through most things, too. It's easy creating big craters in the ground as well.

Below are a list of pros and cons.

GOOD

Campaign: Funny characters, good story, exciting options etc.

Weapons and Vehicles. Nice variety, mostly in multiplayer, Realistic sounds.

Multiplayer: Very fun and life-like. Lots of weapons. It's easy to get some nice teamwork going.

Destruction: Stuff just blows up everywhere you go! (Not in an annoying way, just fun)

BAD

Graphics: They could be better at times., but it's nothing to bitch about.

Missions: Some of them are a little short.

To sum up: Awesome games. A few flaws, but really nothing to bitch about. You should definitely buy it. As long as you like fun.

DICE's game Battlefield: Bad Company 2 is an intense modern warfare FPS shooter game that is mainly based on online play. Bad company 2 relies on vehicular game-play, massive sandbox multi-player and single-player maps and destruction.

Bad company 2 (and the first one) is powered by DICE's frostbite engine which allows for tactical destruction. In the first bad company a man could blow a hole in a wall, crumbling cover or making new paths. Bad company 2 makes its destruction even better, by making its destruction even smaller and larger. Multiple shots at a wall will make small chunks of the wall chip off, this is probably the most impressive new destruction system in the new bad company 2. You can also have the ability to take down whole buildings, unfortunately, each building collapses are not dynamic, and therefore the animation of the building collapsing is the exact same for every building for the same type.

The campaign of bad company 2 could use some improvement, instead of the sandbox style campaign in the first bad company DICE has chosen to make the campaign to be a one way campaign. Although this is good for a first time play it is severely lacking in replay novelty. The storyline also could use some improvement, the storyline is not original, so it may be a good storyline you may find it to be quite familiar. There is also a whole between bad company 1 and bad company 2 campaigns, this leaves some unanswered questions.

Multiplayer is quite balanced and is very entertaining. There are 4 kits which are quite customizable. the game-play is very entertaining, and you don't necessarily have to kill anyone else to get points, for example if your a medic, you can heal people, which will give you quite a lot o points, this really rewards teamwork. Bad company 2 relies on team work, which can be very frustrating if your team isn't playing the game seriously. also the range and realistic ballistics of this game assures for no "spraying" (shooting from the hip without aiming) as bullets do drop down due to gravity and people who "spray" will find themselves losing.

In conclusion bad company 2 is a refreshing, balanced and competitive game, it could use some improvement in the campaign and there are some small frustrations that can lead you to become very frustrated. Frustration aside this game is an amazing game that is a must buy for war FPS lovers,

If you feel like unleashing some large-scale firefights, riding in armored vehicles, and freezing in the middle of a snow-covered mission, "Battlefield: Bad Company 2" gives you exactly that. The story starts off intriguingly enough. The very first mission takes place in 1944 somewhere in the Sea of Japan, where the writers hook you with a secret "wunderwaffe." Then the game jumps to modern times, where you're tasked with investigating and searching for this mysterious weapon against the backdrop of a U. S.-Russia war. After that, the narrative follows a more predictable path: some characters wear serious faces, others have big plans, and you're off on missions to save everything possible. The variety of locations and familiar run-and-gun levels keep the pace lively, though the ending stumbles a bit, falling into clichés. The finale doesn't spark a "wow" or an "oh man," but rather a "well, time to install the next game and delete this one."

The missions themselves, however, are at times quite original. Take the snow episode, for example - a memorable challenge. The plot places you in extreme cold surrounded by deep snow. You literally have to keep warm through combat: freezing, sprinting from house to house, finding warm spots. Once you've thawed out, you mow down nearby enemies and keep moving. Frost creeps over the screen as if it's icing up your eyes, the protagonist breathes heavily as though you're out there without a hat yourself. Sometimes you need to get clever, shooting at conveniently placed barrels. They explode, set the area ablaze, and let you warm up again. It's a unique mechanic that sticks with you.

Beyond the "on-foot" action, the game lets you go wild with vehicles. Tanks, ATVs, armored carriers - no shortage of fun. You even get to play with something resembling a drone that guides missiles to targets. The missions are highly varied in terms of gameplay, and this variety feels good: guns roar loudly, vehicles move with confidence, and there's more than enough action to keep you engaged.

The graphics still hold up surprisingly well even today. The world feels alive, packed with detail, and the destruction is both large-scale and convincing. It's especially satisfying to watch an enemy hideout crumble into rubble - always a highlight. Less fun, of course, when it's your cover being blown to bits and you're suddenly exposed, scrambling to switch positions.

In the end, "Battlefield: Bad Company 2" is a solid, confident shooter with tight mechanics and lively gameplay. Not perfect, but definitely worth checking out - if only for a few standout missions and the thrill of feeling like more than just a soldier, but part of a massive, chaotic spectacle.

7 out of 10.
