Most likely, the EA Master servers for BFBC2 PC are offline until March 2nd.

No, no, you have ruined it. I can see the whole plot now from these screenshots. The Neutron bomb, the plot to use our on Nuclear arsenal against us, the French whore that stole the intel from the Germans in 1967. I can see it all. NO!

Seriously, nice. But the AA/AF on that last pic for the gun in the upper right corner looks terrible.

Maybe a little setup of some stuff that happened during the cold war? Or maybe they used the Thompson instead of normal M16A2 so this tactical intrusion could not be easily blamed on the US (I would have picked the AK74u or AK101 if that was the case). The Thompson is probably that French whore's fault.

If we pre-load BFBC2 on Steam before release and you need something to do, why not? Granted I am going just watch DearS and Rocket Girls, but that is me.

well i dont want to ruin anything for anyone, so im not going to explain why that shot is WW2. You can be surprised and enjoy the game.

The storyline is great so far and really does pull you in, the gamplay feels really fluid and very different to COD. I found cod to be very linear and you could only go one route, but with bfbc2 in the second mission i assaulted a position on a quad i found and attacked them from the side. It really does feel great to play and i love the free movement around the map in missions...blow a hole in a building and jump inside to get a vantage point etc. Feels great to play and looks great a COD beater for sure for me.

Im running this on a 5770, so anymore AA would kill my machine. Im awaiting a 5870 in the next few days so im going to wait to play the full game.

Here is a few more for ya.



















Can anyone spot the birdy?


Im gona hold off playing this till the 5870 arrives, but this is a great game on single player so far. I have also played the beta and i was happy with that....with only one map cant wait for the full multiplayer.

im not sure tbh rhino, i am on a 5770 @ stock (no desire to overclock as its being replaced) I have set everything to high 1680x1050 with 4x AA and 4x AF. There was no option for dx level so im not sure.
My frame rate is low due to the card i guess.

The screen shots dont do the game justice nor does the card. They are not the best screen shots due to the limitation of the 5770.

Cant wait to get my 5870 then i can throw some maxed out screen shots at ya.

The game does look great tho rhino and im really impressed how they have created ...so far what seems like a well crafted story line, that is hard to find in some of the latest titles.
The last game that really drew me in was crysis, once i got into the storyline i was hooked.

I play multi player, hell its what i pre-ordered the game for...BUT if there is a great story line and great game play to offer on the single player i would be daft to pass it up, great title and great story lines are hard to come by these days.
