Thanks. I think I'm just going to use the EA store and do that. I considered using Steam, but I've had some really bad experiences with Steam (mostly my own fault so I'm not trying to discredit Steam) so I tend to avoid using it.

Unless your BF:BC2 is on Steam as well, you won't be able to purchase Vietnam via Steam anyway.

Oh, that's true. I always buy games in a store if I can.

Vantage Point Rush is so imbalanced.. lol.

I never get past the first two points as attacker. The other team just activates a grenade rain and we have no chance of taking anything lol.


Yeah, that map is really bad/imbalanced, but if the attacker can get 2-3 good mortarstrikes at almost the same time it is doable (but ofc it still requires 200% more teamwork than the defending team).

I noticed something interesting today.

I joined a server with only 2 players online because I wanted to get some flying training with the helicopters. Both players had a pretty high rank (47 and 49); however, neither of them ever joined the battle but (I guess) stayed in the kit selection screen all game long. This went on for a couple of rounds (other real players joined, some games were won, some were lost) until I left.

Did these guys just "park" their soldiers there to grab the points for a victory and possibly the best squad pid? Do people in the kit selection screen get points at all?

Yeah they do, but the rate to get points would be incredibly low (200 points for 5-10 minutes?) plus many servers have automated kicks for idle players.

I would guess they might have some investment in the server's popularity. By idling in the server, it never gets filtered as empty, increasing the chance players will join.

I just got to play Vietnam last night. It's SO MUCH FUN. I only played for maybe a half hour, but oh man it was a blast. The M16 sounds amazing, and the maps are a bit more fun, I think.

So yeah, having only played one map using one kit loadout I had a blast.

heh, that's the one thing that's really been missing in every incarnation since then. i miss those big plane maps, i loved them... I forget the one on '42, but you started out across a bay at a nazi airport and had to bomb out four radio towers and a factory. Coolest. Map. Ever.

Most we get now is a ground-heavy armor group with a chopper or two per side.

They made BattleField: 1943 for XBox Live: Arcade. Planes were a big part of that.

My roommate and I wrecked in that, so fun. I don't know how big the player base is now though, it came out a year ago or so.

Just a note about the lack of vehicles: At some point DICE said they wanted the "Bad Company" franchise to be more of a "light" version of the Battlefield franchise. That's why BC2 has no jets, bombers, or anything really above a helicopter.

BF3, I'm sure, will be a lot more hardcore. I can't wait for my beta invite. I pre-ordered MoH (which kind of sucks, tbh).

Fucking EA forums

Holy crap, I was hearing stories of how butthurt they were about this whole Hastings thing but I thought it was exaggeration. So I went there, holy freaking crap. The console kids there are beyond butthurt. They are fucking raging, setting up entire polls of "DID PC CHEAT? SHOULD DICE REVERT THE COMPETITION SO THAT WE CAN HAVE A FAIR CHANCE?!" and crap like that.

They genuinely believe that the PC only had entire 32 man 24/7 boosting servers full of people shooting each other and medics constant healing to boost up that fast. They genuinely believe that it is impossible for someone to get it that fast. I've played BC2 on console, it's like playing CoD with these idiots. No one drops ammo, no one repairs, no one drops med kits, no one spots. That's why the consoles aren't getting it faster, not because of freaking cheats.

To top it all off, all these rant threads are full of kids going "PC GAMERS HAVE NO LIVES, THEY SPEND 3,000$ ON PC'S JUST TO RUN MODERN GAMES. STOP ACTING LIKE YOU SAVE SO MUCH MONEY WHEN NEW CARDS COME OUT EVERY MONTH THAT YOU HAVE TO UPDATE"

How are people so stupid.

I know it's predominately trolls, but there are regulars there that BELIEVE THIS STUFF

tacticalgamers.com, best one out that i have seen, can be annoying cuz their reserve slot kicks people. But if u get on their vent, most of them are 30+ year old guys who are super chill.

Well, all those assaults standing at the chokes darkening the sky with +1 and adrenal glands grenades and a row of medics behind them with their revive ready, does look like cheating that competition tbh :D

On Cao San Temple (or whatever) one carefully dropped upgraded medkit get's you 2k points, maybe more.
When in doubt, empty your magazine.

Vietnam is kinda different, more brutal and unforgiving. Better atmosphere. Don't know what you are looking for in a game. If you like the music, you'll like the game.
