Most of you played BC2, not all played BC1.
I want to see what happens to those guys next year, after the BF3 thing dies out a little. I'm willing to wait for DICE making 2143 (if ever, really; if any game in this series of games needed single player, it was 2142) and instead have them finish a trilogy with the Bad Company guys.
Cos I sure as hell don't want to end in some good company.
To me it was refreshing for a military FPS to NOT have a grizzled, gritty badass main character. Not a veteran of a thousand wars, consumed by inner demons.
No. Preston is just a regular military guy who is in that for the job cos he didn't really know what to do with his life. So he made one mistake. And that mistake costed the army one transport helicopter and one government limo. So, instead of jailing him they transfer him not to a supersecret black ops team; but to the bottom of the food chain.
You know how some guys are the best of the best? Well these guys are the rest of what's left.
And Preston isn't happy cos he soon finds out Bravo Company, AKA BAD Company earned that monicker cos they throw in every misfit and unadapted guy who the military can't afford to let go unpunished.
And then they go and have a ton of wacky adventures involving a crate full of gold. And they desert the army. then they hire them again.
So yeah the story itself is cliched and has been done a thousand times already, specially the one in BC2. But it's still fresh for FPS on PC because well... in BC2 Preston has just become used to be in Bravo Company; and the Sarge is always given a mission the day before he is bout to finally retire; and Sweetwater and Haggard just has a ton of fun blowing up stuff.
So this time around, since they are the rest of what's left, after some guy neutralizes the very best, it's time for B Company to get serious.
And you know how the cowboys always go to war on sundays? And sometimes on Mondays too.
Well I want to see what happens after the russian invasion; cos that's Red Alert 2 stuff right there.
