DAMMIT !!

Bad Company 2 will be using the infamous SecuRom

I can't believe this, have they lost their minds to use the stupidest software ever made ?

I hope I don't get any problems because of it, because I already have many problems with it in my old games such as Cossakes.

The version of SecuRom is supposed to be different. On the BF Blog there was an updated from one of the lead programmers about their implementation of SecuRom. You should read it.

Hey Trip, do you happen to have a link to that blog? I'm pretty new to Battlefield and these days when every company has a twitter and a blog and a web site and a Facebook, I don't know where to start looking.

No. We had 2:45:35 to wait until the beta is released.

Think in steam it will work later as well?

shevanel · Jan 28, 2010

this is obv a console demo vid because the textures and models look like crap.. movements and physics look great

gumpty · Jan 28, 2010

Urgh ... the steam download servers are going to go septic when the clock ticks down to zero. Why, oh why couldn't they do a pre-load for this beta?

Because panic = awareness and awareness = more money. The slow download is the other reason I didnt stay home to download the client.

Never mind the beta, just imagine how it's going to on the game's release day!
On Steam, pre-order should mean pre-load, period.

Great... so now there's a fucking Xbox 360 demo live and still no PC beta. As always, the PC comes LAST. FFS, thanks for nothing DICE. Wankers.

HalfAHertz · Jan 28, 2010

The Ground/Debris/Rocks/Walls look so flat and unrealistic. I was expecting more eye candy from a Dx11 title... Everything else is top notch tho.

InnocentCriminal · Jan 28, 2010

This is the first PC beta video I've seen.

Don't know if it is the PC but it looks like it from how the guy moves about, but that's nothing to go on really.

the pc version will look much better than the console version, Ive already seen some of the PC version. Consoles dont have Dx11/..so if you see a game demo shown outside of DX11 then dont blame the game. :laugh:

exactly you can see the textures and models are so much cleaner.. and the ground looks good

InnocentCriminal · Jan 28, 2010

That's on medium settings as well, apparently.

How could it be the beta and the MP is still closed ?

InnocentCriminal · Jan 28, 2010

It could be a leaked video of the internal test beta. If it's the closed MP beta then that won't stop someone from leaking a video if they have access.

I am going to preorder it right now for PC. I spent sooo many nights on BC (on PS3) that it's my duty to play BC2
