EA... don't mess up Bad Company 2 on the PC. Support it PLEASE.

Maddens Raiders5290d ago

that pic makes me want to lay down the lead and heal my mates. :P

mrv3215290d ago

Running around with defib is hilarious reviving people in the middle of nowhere.

I love working as a squad but what I love most of all is destroying a building with a camping sniper in.

Christopher5290d ago

BC2 using dedicated servers for PC? Looks like it's getting a TON of support from the PC community and that may likely be the reason... other than it's a beautiful looking and fun FPS.

tdrules5290d ago

its dedi servers on all platforms, just PC version will probably have servers closer to you due to the amount ive seen on server browser

Maddens Raiders5290d ago (Edited 5290d ago )

I know there are a few ways to bring down buildings (which is so satisfying) but to me there is extra satisfaction in being able to command and wield a tank like an extension of your arm as you clear buildings, objectives, and *snipers out of the way for your squad.

With that said there is also quite a bit of satisfaction to be had in running into the building with said sniper unbeknownst to him, slitting his throat and grabbing his dog tags and sniper rifle in the mix.

jeez I am such a lush for this game ^_^

CSGrey-Fox5290d ago

Can't be surprised it's number 1 after all the traffic it caused trying to download the beta Thursday. Which is great, I only hope that people will continue to support it long after release because I intend to play it for ages, squadding it everytime hopefully. Love this game.

ATi_Elite5290d ago

OH My friend don't worry Dice has a special version for the PC.

32 players instead of 24 and it has dedicated servers and this version has Directx 11 and many other features that harness the power of the PC.

The game is going to be MAJOR. GOTY

Incredible. Three months after the release and despite the controversy and criticism it still sits there in top selling games with all these big titles coming out.

tdrules5290d ago

it counts retail registrations too

led10905290d ago

MW2 - Love it or hate it but you just can't ignore it. IW has been 3 great MW games. One mistake isn't really going to cost them that much. Maybe thats why they don't care...

mrv3215290d ago

Atleast Bad Company 2 is top. I personally dislike the fact that the original didn't come out on PC... I think they should just re-realese Bad Company 1 within Bad Company 2 for the PC crowd.

GSpartan7775290d ago

@tdrules Stream sales only count games purchased on steam. The game requiring steam doesn't mean it was purchased through steam so no it doesn't count retail purchased.

@mrv321 obviously, considering MW2 has been out for a long time already and limited, beta and promotion for BC2 just started.

I'm really looking forward to this game. At the moment I have it pre-ordered on 360 and PC though I only pre-ordered the PC to try the BETA to see how it would run on my system which is a little old. I would like to buy it on Steam for the convenience of not having to put a disk in each time I want to play but its £10 more expensive to buy it electronically through Steam than it is to buy a hard copy in a nice case at an online retailer.

The 7 Best Western RPGs: Immersive Adventures

RPGs are often huge, sprawling endeavours. With limited playtime, we have to choose wisely, so here's the best western RPGs available today.

SimpleSlave112d ago

"I started playing games yesterday" the List... Meh!

How about a few RPGs that deserve some love instead?
1 - Alpha Protocol - Now on GOG
2 - else Heart.Break()
3 - Shadowrun Trilogy
4 - Wasteland 2
5 - UnderRail
6 - Tyranny
7 - Torment: Tides of Numenera

And for a bonus game that flew under the radar:
8 - Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden

DustMan112d ago

Loved Alpha Protocol in all it's glorious jank. Great game.

SimpleSlave112d ago (Edited 112d ago )

Not only glorious jank, but the idea that the story can completely change depending on what you do, or say, or side with, makes it one of the most forward thinking games ever. The amount of story permutation is the equivalent of a Hitman level but in Story Form. And it wasn't just that the story changed, no, it was that you met completely new characters, or missed them, depending on your choices. Made Mass Effect feel static in comparison.

Alpha Protocol was absolutely glorious, indeed. And it was, and still is, more Next Gen than most anything out there these days. In this regard at least.

Pity.

15 Xbox Games That Should Make the Multiplatform Jump

While there’s likely already a list behind closed doors, one can still speculate and offer logical suggestions for titles new and old that should find their way into the PlayStation and Switch libraries.

Single A games and live service games. Those make sense

S2Killinit132d ago

None of it makes sense. But its happening.

Ps5conehead132d ago

That’s up to Microsoft they want return on there investment. From buying up those publishers. That’s what there in business for. And they made a mistake putting day one exclusive on game pass. So now Microsoft wants to profit any way they can.its called buisness . Just like Sony putting games on pc a year are two after ps5 launch.
So if they can make money off PlayStation and Nintendo. They will do that. And I bet soon real soon they will release some aaa exclusives .and I bet one day it will be same day release

TheEroica131d ago

Sony gamers begging for Xbox games.... Who would've thunk it?

BISHOP-BRASIL131d ago

Yeah, because random site off the internet represents all Sony gamers, they have the letter of attorney and all...

S2Killinit131d ago

Lol what a spin. You dizzy?

AsunaYuukiTheFlash131d ago (Edited 131d ago )

We don’t care about shovelwares. Get that junk out of PS5

StormSnooper131d ago

More like MS begging to put their games on PlayStation.

TheEroica130d ago

Keep begging Sony gamers!

Friendlygamer132d ago

Some of these seem to be exclusive for lack of enthusiasm of the publisher rather than because of deals. A lot of cool indies skip ps for some reason like katana zero, el paso, elsewhere and gunbrela

S2Killinit132d ago

Even more indies skip xbox. We know that right?

Friendlygamer132d ago

Quality over quantity, Microsoft got some really interesting and curated niche games on their machines, maybe in part because of gamepass

S2Killinit131d ago

Quality and MS are not things you bring up in same sentence.

shinoff2183132d ago (Edited 132d ago )

Alot of indies skip xbox to. It goes round and round. Personally I think your off base on that but no need to have the argument.

Friendlygamer131d ago

Between katana zero, valheim, Battletech, el passo... I don't feel off base. maybe ps got a million of light novel games that will never release on Xbox but like I've said, I'm talking about niche games highlights, the 10%.

  Heck, it's probably thanks to Microsoft that the s.t.a.l.k.e.r games came to console ps included, meanwhile Sony backwards compatibility continues to be extremely anemic.

And I'm sure most ps5 users are happy to ignore these games and just play wathever new 3rd person action game is trending but it's cool that Microsoft gives some love to smaller audiences and software preservation

shinoff2183131d ago

Again your off base just to be snide. All it's showing though is your ignorance.

One light novels wtf is that even. Ps has plenty of pretty damn good indies.

Speaking of indies and ms being responsible. You know F.I.S.T. of course you do alot of you guys just support gamepass. Well here's a history of Sony being responsible for helping indies. Look up the China project from Sony.

Lastly lol your ignorance showing again. Sony has plenty of games. Personally third person is better then first anyway but that's besides the point. Sony gets so many games that xbox doesn't get because yall don't support the games. Jrpgs being a great example. I personally am not into every Sony first party game. Alot of us aren't. On the other side you don't get to eat often so you gobble up everything. Me personally God of War not my cup, etc. For me I'm into jrpgs and ms just can't touch Sony on those. Again because the Xbox base doesn't support it. Devs dont wanna waste their time or money. Hit me up when falcom develops a game over there.

Speaking of third person narrative games. Aren't yall drooling over hellblade 2. The first one was Sony exclusive at one point. Another not my cup game. Showing we don't have to fall in line and agree we love everything Sony puts out. The facts are they sell though unlike elsewhere(not nintendo)

StormSnooper131d ago

You are same person as GamerRN, yes?

Abnor_Mal132d ago

They really think PlayStation fans would want to play Redfall? Pfft.

Personally nothing on that list would be any game I’d want to play.

TwoPicklesGood132d ago

I’d absolutely love Hellblade 2, Palworld, and Quantum Break on ps5 as I’m sure tons of others would too. There’s nothing wrong with wanting games from another console and its sad that people try to act like they aren’t interested in them.

shinoff2183131d ago

While indont agree with the games. I agree with the point. Your not wrong.

DarXyde132d ago

Sunset Overdrive makes very good sense. Palworld might.

Don't know about the others. Hellblade II does make sense given the original launched on PS4 first. Quantum Break was a massive letdown for me. I absolutely hated the whole TV show thing and I don't think anyone should have to relive that on modern hardware.
