Rush > conquest

i hate capture the flag i just find it so pointless.....now objective maps trying to defend those two consoles is a blast..never ever have i ever felt the danger of trying to protect/attacking something..

the maps are big enough to flank...theres just so much strategy to this and rush maps take awhile to accomplish which i LOVE...you get pushed back and the urgency with the team forces them to fight harder...

share them guys i play with friends on the 360 version good times when i sneak in and try to get their dogtags


pc version...solo here and i already have Vietnam preordered on Steam (cant wait to fly the Huey)

you guys want to hear something funny....copters on the PC version is pretty non existent compared to the console version..

whenever i see a player run up to the copter im hoping to just jump in and be the gunner...instead he stops and as i get there we end up just staring at each other as neither of us can fly it lol

the pc version needs the 360 controller as an option for vehicles...

I don't know why they don't have some sort of tutorial for learning the fly the chopper. I can do ok with the transport, it's not too hard (lol), but the attack choppers are a nightmare anytime I try to get an attack run together I always end up crashing.

I think you were playing NCAA. This was Saturday around half time of Auburn/USCe. You killed me by repeatedly dropping buildings on me.

lol true...at least in the PC version you can enter any empty server and just practice flying. Thats what i did in BF2 but its still damn near impossible to fly with a keyboard and mouse..

man...just when you figure out how to strafe i usually end up nose diving into a building...gah..

the strange thing is though...BF2 there were plenty of chopper whores, i mean they would tk you just to get into one but in BC2 nobody seems to want to fly those things and i read that its actually easier to fly than the ones in BF2...

Thanks for the feedback guys. I assumed Rush was the general consensus mostly.

I am down to play with any of you on the PC version. Someone set up a night and time and I am all game!

So I assume Rush is Army A versus Army B with not "squads"?
