Product Description
Battlefield: Bad Company 2 redefines the modern FPS. It has an engaging single-player campaign, but the online experience is where it really shines. Some warfare simulation games focus only on gunplay. Bad Company 2, on the other hand, doens't limit your tactics. Use vehicles, different kits, different classes, teamwork, strategy, and different weapons in a fully-destructible environment to lead your team to victory!

As the action begins players have their pick of four distinct character classes, and weapons, gadgets and specializations. Within these, players have over 15,000 kit variations to discover, and will be able to fine-tune their preferred fighting style to give them the edge in combat that they will need to survive and prevail. In addition, new vehicles like the all terrain vehicle (ATV) and the UH-60 transport helicopter allow for new tactics, which players are free to choose from. As players fight through mission play they will level up their playable character through the ranks as they accumulate experience points in combat for enemies eliminated and objectives completed. Excellence in the battlefield is rewarded with an extensive range of pins, insignias and stars to unlock along with 50 dedicated ranks to achieve. Battlefield 2 also features a major multiplayer component. Along with standard 24-player online multiplayer options across eight maps, players can also compete in 4-player teams in 2 exclusive squad-only game modes, fighting together to unlock exclusive team awards and achievements. During these online battles players can spawn on your squad to get straight into the action, and use gadgets such as the tracer dart in-conjunction with the RPG to devastating effect. Taken together these features make for one of the most realistic ground/vehicle combat experiences ever.

The New Frostbite Engine
Tactical destruction in Bad Company 2 is taken to new heights with the updated DICE 'Frostbite' engine. Unlike in the first game in the series, which featured considerable, but limited destructible game environments, in Battlefield Bad Company 2 players can now take down entire buildings or create their own vantage points by blasting holes through cover, thereby delivering a unique dynamic experience in every match.

5 out of 5 stars Videogame Review   September 8, 2010
Marco
I love this videogame, I own at it, the makers of this game did a great job overall. More of a multiplayer game than single player. Buy it if you're into FPS online gaming, I say it's better than COD4. Some say it' a bad game only because it's not the usual type of FPS since vehicles can be used, buildings are collapsable, bullets are affected by gravity, etc. Realistic right? Only unrealistic thing I can say about this is your parachute deployment time. Basically just tap A twice after jumping and your parachute will come out making you easier to spot.


5 out of 5 stars For the multiplayer intimidated player's out there   September 8, 2010
Vorhese (Miami, Fl)
I have a confession to make I have long been a fan of first person shooters and have played and bought most but only for the campaign I always attempt the online multiplayer get my butt kicked, try again and again till I get so completely frustrated I quit trying it and wait for the next FPS to come out so I can play that campaign BUT I say all this to help you understand how great Battlefield Bad Company 2 is at both a compelling campaign and at its multiplayer. If you are like me you have read that a hundred times about other games but once you spawn in one of these highly detailed huge maps and notice "even without a real squad or headset" that your team actually helps you and your not being killed every 10 seconds by a knife or an RPG you see the difference. The leveling up is a serious challenge it will take awhile but it's worth it when you unlock something useful to your playing style and earn trophies. For the price you can pick this up right now it's a no-brainer give it a go you won't be disappointed!

This game is great. Lots of S**T to blow up.

This game is a "must have". I was contemplating whether to get BFC2 or COD, and Im glad I chose this game. Im always on the edge of my seat wen i playing this game.

IT BEST.



5 out of 5 stars better for multiplayer noobs   September 5, 2010
becausetheyaredead (los angeles, ca usa)
don't have time to game as much as the kiddies, but this is one multiplayer game that doesn't have as high of a learning curve (like the COD games). also a much more team oriented game which for me is more enjoyable.
