| I think i just shat myself,WELL DONE - thanks so much,cant wait to get playing come friday. | ||||||||
| MORE CONQUEST SERVERS! I get this tingly feeling that BF2 community may want more conquest servers, but the demand will be seen once the game is properly out. CANNOT wait for this seriously SERIOUSLY stoked. Actually skipping partying to play this on friday night *edit sozzy for abbreviation ..... 3 days.... 3 hours... 30 minutes till play time | ||||||||
| Guys a friendly reminder. No swearing -- even in abbreviations. | ||||||||
| not very many maps  | ||||||||
| Vinks this game is going to rock. 10 maps on release day with quite a good chance of there being more. | ||||||||
| Guns blazing baby! Cant wait! | ||||||||
| So it begins..... da da dum!!! | ||||||||

| One conquest :< Hardcore is icky. | ||||||||
| Gief Game NOW!!!!!! | ||||||||
| There are 3 other maps which are already included in the game install. You *can* access them, but server hosts have been advised to not host them because they haven't been Q&A tested, etc. EA seems to be seeing the light wrt to DLC, so perhaps we'll see free map additions in the future. | ||||||||
| finally got payed, buying right now DDDDDDDD | ||||||||
| OM#$# its still 2 days COME ON FOR PETE's sake.... im telling you pete is going to get it. xD | ||||||||
| Killcam: Enabled This is unacceptable. The enemies should not know where the hell you are when you fragged them. | ||||||||
| Sigh dude only is your a sniper and you have been camping one place for the last 30mins do people find you with the kill cams. Chill, are you one of those people sitting on a hill some where that doesnt have a care in the world about the objectives? | ||||||||
| No I am not sN |eCliPSe| MW, I do actually move forward to take objectives, and *shock horror*, I even try my best to revive people. Which most players do not. FACT. My issue with the killcam, in one of my games, Khaos found a pretty good hiding spot and he fragged me, but thanks to kill cam, it was short lived. Killcam is nothing more than care-bear hand-holding, ag shampies, you got fragged because you don't know how to keep your eyes open in the battlefield, no worries. We will show you were the enemy is. Might as well just have big neon signs over enemy positions. | ||||||||
| Killcam never worked in the beta for me or if it did it showed nothing that could help me so im used to it lol. | ||||||||
| I completely disagree, the inclusion of the Kill Cam FORCES players to move and find different spots all the time. I for one like it, I have played countless games on BF2 where people just find one hidey hole and don't move for 5 - 10 minutes. It doesn't help your team, it doesn't promote team play. Kill cam punishes those that do not play the game the way it is mean to be played | ||||||||
| ^ Agree with you ^ | ||||||||
| Cant Wait for something other than COD..... | ||||||||
| It isn’t illegal to position yourself in such a way that you have an advantage, that’s smart thinking and its part of the game. Some people need to grow some balls. Quoted from: {BOC}EGGMAN | ||||||||
| Ordering this today, sounds good! | ||||||||
| BOOOOOOOYAAAAH!!!!! cnt wait | ||||||||
| \ / | ||||||||
| um shouldnt kill cam be taken out of competitive matches though, im purely asking this since it is taken out of promod in cod4, battlefield could be a bit diff seeing the maps are more open for players to use, i understand killcam is a must for open servers, but i dont know if its a great idead for competitive games, im speaking from inexperience in the battlefield scene so correct me if im wrong | ||||||||
| Can anyone get into any local servers with bfbc2? I can only get into international servers, with a bad ping If you can, please explain to me how to get them to show in my server list. | ||||||||
| yeah i can't find the sgs servers either any ideas | ||||||||
| The EA master server seems to be struggling under the game load. Your best bet is to add a bunch of ZA players to your friends list and follow them onto the server once they have connected. http://games.saix.net/cgi-bin/sgsbb/ikonboard.cgi?act=ST;f=349;t=67202 (you'll need a SGS forum account) | ||||||||
