Wherein the always acerbic Jack Devore explains the many ways bad players ruin an otherwise stellar game:
"I have some issues with Battlefield Bad Company 2 that are driving me nuts and chances are you, yes you, are responsible."
Cultured Vultures: In the spirit of preserving some kind of history of this industry, we’ve decided to list some of the best games that you just simply can’t get hold of digitally at the minute.
I just started playing Spec op. I've had it for years on steam and forgot about it. Such a good game.
Honorable mention to the excellent Driveclub, one of the best racing games of all-time and one of my favourite games ever.
Outrun Online Arcade, Sega Rally Online Arcade, After Burner Climax... all good stuff. I keep my 360 hooked up to play these as well as the TMNT games that were also delisted.
wow...I have all of them except the Nintendo ones either in physical or digital version.
Also..Deadpool the Game is missing on that list.
Battlefield Bad Company 2, Dead Space 2, Crysis 3, and a handful other EA games have finally had their online services shut down.
I had no idea that Bad Company 2 was still running, and only now that I know, I want to jump on! 😥
BF1943 is the only online MP game that I was genuinely interested in. Been playing since launch 14 years ago. Hate that I couldn't put in as much time to play as I'd hoped for during the final week.
Dead Space 2...... I wasn't even aware that had multiplayer. Nevermind that it was apparently one of their best multiplayers!
Dead Space 2 multiplayer had been hanging on for years - I'd boot my PS3 up to see some familiar names in lobbies. This will definitely be missed!
EA: "As we close in on 15 years since the release of Battlefield 1943, and Bad Company™ 1 & 2, we are announcing that their journey is coming to an end."
This reminds me... I have ME on my PS3 hdd. Never really played it, but it was free.
On PC I don't think it's much of a problem but I'm sad to see BF43 being shut down. I haven't played it in a while since it's stuck on PS3, but i preferred it way more over BF3. It was the lack of invisible barriers which made it better for me.
Does anyone play the last BF anymore? I searched crossplay servers and it was 20 people the most on all the servers? Can never find a game
I would love to see this writers' stats in BFBC2. And his gripes could be solved just like all the same issues in other FPS games with a healthy dose of FRIENDS.
And personally I don't join squads when my friends are offline because random squad mates love to take your vehicle when you are repairing it (so rude), love to give away your position while sneaking to an objective after spawning on you, and fail to provide ammo and or health. Yes I am stereotyping a lot of gamers and obviously all don't fit this but a lot of you do. I rather play with friends in my squad. We are veteran BF gamers and know what and when to do things and the roles to play so objectives get done.
I agree with the sniping to a degree. When I can go into an enemy base and arm 2 crates at the same time it's nice to get sniper support. But some levels don't call for 6 snipers and no defense roles call for 6 snipers.
And I fly like a champ. Yes I am really a fixed wing licensed pilot with 10 years of flight experience and 500+ flight hours which isn't a lot (how much does that helps me in the game... zero!) but my issue is you people that can't hit anything with the mini gun while in my choppa. And apparently people don't know you can repair the black hawks and the hind while *in flight* with an engineer in the crew cabin. :) If you can shoot there you can fix there.
And reviving players replaces points on the ooffense side. So when you die and get revived by a diflibilator (which is a stupid tool for this) then your TEAM losses and regains a point meaning none are loss.
AI bots... wow such an idiot. AI is hard to code for any FPS game. Rarely do they pull it off well. And AI, loves to block doors, steal vehicles, and most operate them poorly. True the single player AI in BC2 can dodge a missle in a helicopter like a champ but they can also put one on your head accurately while rarely missing... you want that? I don't! Need I mention AI super sniping ability?
The only time I've really been pissed in BC2 is when some d1ckhead kept blowing up our choppers as soon as they spawned...
first page made me laugh, he's right, mainly with the dumb snipers.
page 2 is bugged, wonder why...
Another true Article haha
wanna join up and kick some ass let me know. send me a PM!!
