Battlefield Bad Company 2 Clubhouse

[1Kurgan1]

so basically he's saying play medic...


And DO NOT play on hardcore servers if ur looking to learn the game.. ull get torn up.

If your going for overall score then most likely Medic, but as far as not dieing and upping the KDR, Medic probably isnt the best choice.

OMG I agree to disagree. My highest kdr is as medic.

 

[caleb]

Rado_D. You can always hook urself up to somebody thats more expierienced and spawn on them
Try and add me on friends and fallow ingame.
Total chaos and killing sphree is the best thing in BF games.

 

[1Kurgan1]

OMG I agree to disagree. My highest kdr is as medic.

Then your hiding too much Got to get out there and whore some points with revives. I'm not saying Medic will suck at KDR, back when I had about 170 game hours I was at 2.22KDR with Medic, but it has dropped since then.

 

[Volkszorn88]

For me personally, medic, engi and sniper all bored me. I especially hate wookies, everyone thinks they're a pro sniper in every fps game. Any 5yr can camp in one spot from 200+km and get a kill.

Not to mention, sucks even more when you're the one who spawns on the team who's getting raped 'cause they're all sniping. Only 2 snipers should be allowed on each team.

P.S.
Also, why does my sig so small? Can barely see it.

They built the house around the grass, then wove the grass into a fine rug, but when they moved out upkeep wasnt there and it grew wild again.

Sounds plausible.

I get alot of annoying rubberbanding/stuttery frames in the singleplayer game,even though framerates are good it just feels jittery alot of the time. Anyone have a solution for this? I have tried a few different drivers all have displayed the same issue, vsync on and off and all the different dx versions. No joy!! Any clues anyone?

solution: dont use nvidia.


more likely fix: turn shadows off



i'm not sure, but i know its an Nv problem. i recall hearing shadows borked some things up.

 

[assaulter_99]

sorry,I meant Bad Company 2..its so frustrating,it seems like I just dont stand a chance against anybody there.take a kill here or there,but nothing much..have tried few servers...its all going bad really atm..I know it takes some time..how do you find some beginner servers?are there any at all?

Well I feel I'm in the same boat as you. I got the game a couple of weeks ago, so very very late on. What I've learned is that the game rewards you for your high ranking. Starters are bound to be torn up, just like me. At first, I didn't even stand a chance in a 1 vs 1, countless times I've started shooting, dropping bullets on the guy, then get killed even if he started shooting second. My first kills were like I killed the guy, and ended up being killed too! Was frustrating, to say the least.

I then assumed that they had something I didn't, so since I was only level 1, I tried other stuff, like helping the team, not rambo around, stay behind pals etc. Now what gave me hope was when I reached level 10 or so, things started getting better, had better weapons etc. At level 14, it was even better, I had body armour, god, the difference was like between light and day! For the first time, I could rack up *killing sprees*! I also understood that magnum ammo is a hell of a boost, which was raping me before. I now start to average better k/d ratios (even though I don't really care, I sometimes suicide to help out the team, but still) but it will be a massive job. I'm on a k/d of .60 (700 kills to level up rofl) Hope that helps you and give you hope. Levelled up players might not feel that, since they got it at launch or whatever, so they don't quite experience the difficulty we experience now (if you got it at launch, well everyone started even)

I'm no pro, but this is what I've learned at least from the 20h or so playing the game.

No problems on my end. Latest drivers ?

thank you very much for this info buddy,it really makes sense..I'll try something later tonight,when Im back from work...
PS:what you wrote about shooting at someone first,for example getting behind them..but they still manage to turn around and shoot you dead,jesus these moments make me want to rip all the cables out of my computer last night I've tried few games..there was this guy,a sniper(lot of people just go on the same spot after respawn,lame by my opinion) and I knew he was shooting us a lot,cos from that spot he had a clear shot on our spawn point and I was trying to get to the shielded turret and take that sucker down..man I could bring the whole building down,he was still there..but back to people just hiding...yes there is a lot of campers unfortunatelly..but I guess if you are a sniper,its natural to melt into the enviroment and wait for a good shot..

find dead person. steal their kit XD go on rampage

I didnt know you can do that

yeh i have tried a few drivers pepper including the latest, nothing seems to sort it. Spmeone mentioned HPET but cant seem to find it on my board.

Turn the Folding programs off. I know they take low priority, but they will still cause stuttering on CPU intensive games.


As for all the other stuff about needing the magnum ammo and body armor, etc. I can either use all default equipment or start a new soldier and I will still be in the top 5 in every game I play. Dying a lot at the beginning has nothing to do with crappy equipment or everyone having an advantage over you. You are not use to the system yet. It may not look different, but it feels different. The suggestion of playing through single player is a requirement to get use to the system in BFBC2. Playing with a friend or 2 with a higher rank helps a lot. And starting Assault helps because you get a noob tube very fast.

Keys to victory in this game:
* Burst fire all automatic rifles at range.
* Communication
* Teamwork/Squad work (Stick together and watch each other's backs)
* Don't be Rambo (unless you are Kurgan).
* Keep moving and assume their are always Snipers watching.
* The kit is called RECON, not Sniper. Play it as such.

 

[blu3flannel]

I didnt know you can do that

When you see a dead person laying around, there is usually a kit to be had. If you also see a gun laying on the ground, that is a kit you can pick up. Simply walk over it, wait until the icon to pick it up shows up (it has the kit type and tells you to press E), and press E and take it. If you don't like it, you can take yours back using the same method or find another one.

 

[caleb]

what the f ?!!
Please stop sayin that you get owned because you're level 1 because I'm getting sick.

Huh? I don't think I'm running any unless they are on by default in the driver?

 

[Black Haru]

so after some testing, I agree with highway. here's the stats for the new character I made.

its all about knowing the maps and mechanics, not the equipment (although equipment can help)

 

[assaulter_99]

I agree with you on that. Even though equipment can help, you must also know the mechanics of the game. Once you've got it nailed down (it took me 10+ hours, I'm a slow learner) it would be easy starting all over, especially with someone who has 100+ hours on the game. Now for the absolute beginner, like me, I can surely say that body armour is helping me loads (since I got it, I die less than I kill), so it surely can't be placebo effect. I've not got magnum ammo yet though, so I can't comment on it.

Now everyone has a playing style, so if it works for me, it might not for you and vice versa. Surely it also doesn't help that I rush trying to arm/disarm Mcoms while some bush wookies take pot shots for fun, not even covering my back (once again I don't complain, everyone bought the game for a reason and goes his way on the highway, his choice). So some ceramic does surely help.

Also there's no reason to bash newcomers POV saying it makes you sick (once again, I'm new to this game/mechanics/destruction, I won't pretend knowing everything), lets not just make this thread like EA's forums, which is an absolute joke maturity-wise. Some are born to frag, I guess thats not me but I'm here to learn tips from advanced players, not being belittled.

And thanks to those who came up with constructive comments, especially the LM & BH.

I read the 10 hrs to learn the game mechanics and that was EXACTLY me too. I pretty much went like 1-3,5 in kdr until I hit level 6? Maybe sooner, but afterwards I got to 1:1. Then after actually learning the hitboxes (then having it changed in R9, the most recent patch) I went to my highest score of 80-10 and got accused of hacking. I've only gotten that once!

After many attempts to disarm like you, I figured there were going to be enough people who would carelessly rush in that I'd search the perimeter to take out offenders. Thus, using the careless rushers to disarm as bait. Once it's cleared and my buddies haven't disarmed then I'll make an attempt. This play style, which I like a lot (because I rather kill), suits me perfectly even if it fails in winning games. Same thing should go for revives.

 

[caleb]

I'm not bashing the fact that you're a newbie just the one point where you say low rank makes you score badly.

 

[crazyeyesreaper]

low rank did make me score badly after unlocking weapons better suited to my play style things got alot better. Its not so much low rank its more that theres ALOT of weapons to pick from and people do better with some then they do others.

examples i DO have a lvl 3 soldier on the side with noob weapons my KDR is horrendous at .45 but soon as i get a shotgun my KDR jumps to .75-1.5 depending on the server and what TPU members im gaming with

for the record my main soldier below in my sig started out at .29 KDR and im now trying to reach .85 took me 30+ ranks to get there
