nah there not crazy there customers are just stupid this is kinda why we dont have tools to edit Battlefield anymore even tho the tool set is still the same as BF2 etc just updated.

The Community at large produces better maps better skins etc but Dice and EA see $0 for it thus they do things the way they current are in order to bring in more money over the life of a game

besides it has to look bad when a modding team spends hours making some awesome stuff and shows up the highly paid artists and dev team in your employ upon which your charging for there content. Eitherway thank CoD series for making these kinds of transactions common place in FPS games. People just accept it and click buy these days.

So, Vietnam is now on Steam, but does the Steam version include the 3 day head start? I looked on the EA store and all it says is "3 day head start", but it lists no actual date.

I remember hearing something about a Dec 22nd release...


I already bought mine through teh EA store, so as soon as it unlocks, I'll be gone playing for a few days. Heh.

I spent the morning testing out the new scopes for the G3 and M14! It makes the G3 unstoppable! if you add magnum ammo and 4x scope, two hits to someone is insta death (Hardcore)

That ticker message on your last screenshot "2 new multiplayer modes and 4 new maps".

What are these new multiplayer modes? Am I forgetting something?

Edit - I think it says "Medal of Honor" after the first part.

New Multiplayer modes, good question there. I mighth ave to try out the G3 now, but I like Iron Sights, and the G3 with Iron Sights seems to have massive spray.

Map Pack 7 is tomorrow! And look at that, Steam gets the 3 day head start, good news all around!

Trailer
You wanted release dates for VIP Map Pack 7 and Battlefield: Bad Company 2 Vietnam? Why didn't you just say so? :)

No, seriously -- VIP Map Pack 7 goes live tomorrow! This is your chance to relive the awesomeness of fan favorite map Oasis, plus three more maps never before available in Battlefield: Bad Company 2 multiplayer. For a complete rundown of everything VIP Map Pack 7, here are some posts we prepared earlier.

Also: December 21. Save the date. That is when Battlefield: Bad Company 2 Vietnam will launch (December 22 for PS3 in Europe). If you prefer your battlefielding on PC, you can get a three day headstart on EA Store and Steam, where it will be available on December 18. Need a reminder on why you should be excited? Here's our latest trailer. It has flame-throwers.

So. Who's on for some serious VIP 7 multiplayer action tomorrow?

Note that in order to play VIP Map Pack 7, you need to update your game with Multiplayer Update 3. This update should be pretty automatic and straight-forward, but if you want more info on it, head to this blog post. For more info on Battlefield: Bad Company 2, visit the Official Site.

----------------------------------------------

Holy crap, they are bringing back Oasis, thats awesome, that trailer is great, I'm really amped, I want to hop on and own now, but I'm busy, maybe in an hour....

If they would get rid of the scoring and points system it would be nice. War is not a tennis championship. Something is so wrong here!

Played a while and apart from autologon, nice, I didn't notice much.

Crazyeyes, yes. Mods are so much better than this canned gaming. I am still addicted to Forgotten Hope, for example, or Reality.

The points are fine, the game still requires strategy and thats what matters.

Alright, I'm pissed. Just did a server search, every server in the US with more than 5 playerso n right now for Conquest. Is either 24/7 Atcama, 24/7 Arica, Mixed Mode, or Noobs Only. 0 servers over with more than 5 playing that are just full random conquest... really getting sick of the 1000 Atcama servers, almost wantto just buy a server again, but no money atm, guess I'll just play on Euro servers, thats some BS.

i would love to see a game like BC2 get rid of the lame points system. only children care how they measure up in online gaming. if you get rid of the points then you actually have people playing who want to win rather than rack up silly achievements. i see people all the time who simply will not get involved in a firefight so that they can preserve their K/D ratio. those are the people who go 12/1 but have 500 points. meanwhile my K/D is something like 10/15 but i have 2500 points. i am doing most of the work!

Yeah, I don't play HC. I don't mind HC with assists on, but norm HC just isn't much fun to me. And on a side note, update your PB just incase, I was just on a 29/2 round and got kicked because PB said it wasn't updated :/ there goes an ace pin...

i would love to see a game like BC2 get rid of the lame points system. only children care how they measure up in online gaming. if you get rid of the points then you actually have people playing who want to win rather than rack up silly achievements. i see people all the time who simply will not get involved in a firefight so that they can preserve their K/D ratio. those are the people who go 12/1 but have 500 points. meanwhile my K/D is something like 10/15 but i have 2500 points. i am doing most of the work!

I do see what your saying, and it sucks that some people play like that. But thats just how it is, I'd rather keep the points for personal stat tracking, it's interesting to see how changes effect me. But KDR doesn't change how I play, even with my KDR dropping under 1.5 for like 2 months, I was actually scoring more points am minute, and killing more people. And without stats, it would have been hard to prove, but I knew something was going on with some hack that allowed people to see everyone (but not headshot script), because since then my KDR has gone back up, yet my other stats haven't changed.
