Re: Bad company 2 + Modern warfare 2 = ?

yea i'm pretty sure i won't be getting this game. i can't see it suddenly turning into a good game from the current mess. remember BC2 beta didn't change that much from beta either.

oh and thank you mods! i hate when threads go out of control like that.

If this game were made by a different developer DICE would be slamming it left and right, if you look at interviews where they were asked what features differentiated Bad Company 2 over other games - Destructible Environments, Open Sandbox play, Squad system to promote teamwork, Mixed vehicle and infantry combat, Dedicated servers.

The only thing on par with MoH is the Dedicated server support.

MoH - Destructible Environments, Nope - you can break a window and make a barrel roll around.

MoH - Open Sandbox play, Nope - at least not in the two multiplayer modes shown so far. Small box map focused around a few buildings for Team Deathmatch and a narrow, corridor like map for a Team Rush mode renamed Combat Mission.

MoH - Squad system to promote teamwork, Nope - you only get a "Team" based spawn system, either to randomly placed at the front lines of combat or randomly placed slightly further back. In Team Deathmatch the spawn system is pack-rat based, tries to spawn you in where there is greater concentration of teammates.

MoH - Mixed vehicle and infantry combat, Nope - the Team Rush mode gives one vehicle to the attacking side but it's utterly pointless, and with no ability to repair is just a death trap, even more so than when you hop in one during a round of Squad Deathmatch in Bad Company 2.

What DICE should have done is created a mini expansion to Bad Company 2 that fit in with the MoH Afghanistan feel, by purchasing the full version of MoH you would get free access to Bad Company 2 plus this expansion. If you wanted to purchase the "MoH" expansion pack separately and skip out on MoH single player then they should have done that too. Give it a price of around $30 stand alone, something like 8 maps and a few new game modes.

I agree. I was excited for this game, but after playing the beta, I don't think I will bother. I know it's an early beta and not a demo, but I can see their foundations and where they are going with this game, and honestly, I don't like it. There is just something about the game that feels strange and I don't know whether I am alone with this or not, but I can't play more than a couple rounds. I think some of may have to do with the fact that the weapons are so easy to master. There is no skill involved and it's always the same. Aim for the head, hold down fire. Aim for the head, hold down fire.

I don't know, maybe I'm just weird

Anyone else have problem with binding keys? It won't let me bind enter/exit and sometimes traps me in the menu, forcing me to ctrl-alt-del to quit.

What can you call in with the score chains?

1. Soldier communication.

How is it? Is it like BC2 with the context sensitive all-in-one button? I don't see any controls for communication in the controls options besides the team/all chat.

No, I mean the soldiers themselves, not the players. Kinda like when the soldiers shout in BC2 about snipers or getting shot. The soldiers in MOH do that as well as call into base with information. An example I had was we were attacking some barrack of some sort and the guy radiod in saying we were at the location and had them surrounded. I looked at the mini map and sure enough we did. If the whole team is bogged down they will radio in saying there is heavy fire and we are not moving forward.

I havent found any player communication yet.

one word comes to mind, longevity.. or lack of! us hardcore Bf players want what we had in BF2 and BF2142 not another flash in the pan game that will last a few months.. even BFBC2 has become boring now.

Re: Bad company 2 + Modern warfare 2 = ?

Just thought I’d give you a short update on the game and our thought process. Thanks to all the good feedback we’ve received we have decided on some adjustments. We can’t say if and when this will make it into the beta, but it’s definitely going to be adjusted for the full game.

* Fix the freezing (of course). We’re working on this. Our top prio.
* Server browser (PC). This one needs bug fixes and some more features.
* Weapon recoil on PC. Yes. We will bring the recoil up on some of the weapons.
* Slightly more splash from grenades/explosives.
* We will tone down some of the “bling” when gaining score, especially the red band people have been mentioning.

This is not all of course. We are constantly making changes to the game but these were some issues where we are acting directly on your feedback. Please keep telling us what you like and don’t like about the game.

From http://forum.ea.com/eaforum/posts/li...B90485191C5262 this.

Discuss (also where is out damn MoH 2010 forum section!).

Hopefully they release that into the beta. I know a lot of people are also playing the beta as a demo (I am) and would like to see how they fix that, especially the recoil.

Re: Bad company 2 + Modern warfare 2 = ?

Im a bit disappointed about the reviews I am reading from you guys. I was hoping it would be the perfect MW & BC2 mix but with the piss poor graphics and lack of recoil, I am concerned. The game is released in less then 4 months, hopefully they get the graphics up to BC2 level by that time.

I pre-ordered the game from EA for $29.99 so I wont be canceling my preorder either way.

I look forward to trying out tje beta for myself when I get back from vaca. Personally, I tgink they should try to continually update the beta till it is somewhat polished so the advice they revieve will actually help them finish the games mp properly.

Re: Bad company 2 + Modern warfare 2 = ?

i doubt they will improve it that much. dice is going to be very busy working on BC2 vietnam, and patches for the other games, as well as working on 1943. they're probably more likely to put time into their own games than MoH.

They did just announce adding some recoil to the weapons and they are fixing and modifying the game a bit now that the beta is underway. So they are making changes as we go. Four months is a long tme to make changes, longer than the BC2 changes.

I dont know about the graphics though. I cannot adjust my resolution or see any difference in some of the other things I change in the settings.

Someone mentioned somwhere about how this game is how MW2 should have been for PC. I think that is pretty accurate with what I am seeing so far. I wish the environment was a bit more destructable though.

Anyway, they are making a lot of changes as we go.
