Re: Battlefield 2: MC - Reviews & Impressions Thread

Same here Skerik. I go on runs where I can get two or three conquests and a a few kills, and then the next round I just completely bring down the team by sucking out loud. Is anyone gonna be on tonight? I am for sure and am bringing some new blood in for us to play with.

I'll be on again later

I hope we can communicate

I'm the same way... going on tears in some games avg 54pph and then going on droughts against much more (evidently) experienced players and getting my butt kicked.

dropped to an avg of 39pph in like three days

on the maps that I know, I seem to do pretty well on the maps that I'm unfamiliar with (especially the night time maps) I'm lost and get owned by assault rifles.

I can't compete with some of these guys... my thumbjockeying is horrible... I couldn't hit the ocean with a shotgun.

Most of my kills come from walking behind people, missing 80% of the shots, but finally killing them with the last 3 shots in my clip.


It was fun tonight, guys... but that mic problem is horrible. There's really no strategy in this game w/o communication... they need to get that fixed soon.

I know this is a few days late fellas but great gaming.


That mic thing is almost a game killer for me. F*cking EA or MS whomever I dont care, but they better get off their asses and fix this ugly problem. My son doesnt mind it, but I hate it.

Funny you say that, my son is obsessed with having C4 (he loves sneaking up on tanks and taking em' out solo) so he always go Spec Ops, but in alot of one on one shootouts...... I see him go down first with his smg up against an Assault.

Without the mic working properly it is hard to work as a team which forces me to try and be Rambo.

It's just a flesh wound, lol.

How is this compared to Socom? Sounds similar.

Ghost Recon is alot more comparable to Socom.....this game is more fast paced and action packed.

As soon as they get the mic problems straightened it, this game will be even better. I love it, but it seems like every other game I have to logout of XBL and log back in just to get the mic working.

I'm with Kev.

I love having C4 to defeat the vehicles but in anything other than close qrtrs. (where it excels) the smg is not the best against the 100 round machine gun of Support or the Assault rifle.

I use GRAW for my weapon "shooter" fix. It offers much more realism in the weapon and shooting department. The allure of BF2 to me are the peripheral weapons in each class. Calling mortar strikes, laser targeting choppers/tanks, C4, laying mines, driving snowmobiles and tanks etc. and out thinking the enemy. As you know, it all happens very fast though so you can't always pull those manuvers off before getting shot down.

For straight "shooting" this is more arcadey yet pretty balanced.

The night maps on this game are terrible. Too dark!

I agree. It's like running around the boneyard in GRAW without the benefit of night vision.

Re: Battlefield 2: MC - Reviews & Impressions Thread

Just got done playing with Skerik and bdunn... that was probably some of the least amount of fun I've ever had playing a video game.

Bridge Too Far constantly got voted as the map of choice.
Here's what would happen.
1.) I would go to a flag right away.
2.) I would capture the flag.
3.) 3 guys in trucks would come at me, I would take out two, Skerik would take out the other.
4.) The map then flashes that the enemy has taken every conceivable flag on the map, except the one me and Skerik are at.
5.) 14 guys overwhelm me and Skerik, they take the last remaining flag.
6.) We are then pinned down at our base, where the enemy literally base rapes us for the rest of the map.

Me and skerik would always have points in the teens or higher... and our teammates would be absolutely atrocious, we would be lucky if someone scored over ten in that map.

Good games bdunn and skerik... maybe next time it the teams won't be so horrendous.

Re: Battlefield 2: MC - Reviews & Impressions Thread

I had some frustrating times earlier today, too. We were playing with a bunch of French guys, couldn't understand a word they were saying, but they were good.

I'm not the best at this game, so if I'm getting my *** handed to me on a consistent basis, I just find another room.

Re: Battlefield 2: MC - Reviews & Impressions Thread

This is now my favorite XBL game. Call me crazy, but I had a hell of a lot of fun tonight. I got frustrated this afternoon and took a break, but tonight was like an epiphany playing this game. Tons of freaking fun, and it can only get better if we get a server full of OS people who are actually talking to each other. On the game I just finished, I had a high score of 50 including 18/9 and 5 flags. Funny how learning how to scope and aim works to your advantage.

My highlight was killing a jeep and a tank with C4, both within about 5 seconds of each other, on my way to killing 2 other guys and taking a flag. So much freaking fun and really frenetic action. Always something going on. This game is hot!

Brankles, Bdunn, Rusted, and anyone else I'm forgetting....good games!
