Well the day is nearly upon us to mount an attack on the island of Skira. I was a massive fan of the original Operation Flashpoint game on the old Xbox and PC. The scale of the game even then was breathtaking and the ways you were simply left alone with a map and a compass deep behind enemy territory had you gripped with nerves, how you could take any vehicle and use it to your own ends like infiltrating a chopper base at night with night vision to steal a gunship to use for a totally different objective or finding the sports rally car in a garage and just putting the toe to the gas and driving like a maniac for hours or till it was hit by an enemy RPG / Gunship. The game was also modded to fuck on the PC with the fans building situations and conflicts to try out. And this is where im slightly worried . . . . This was easy on the PC but im fearing how this scope and freeroam will translate over to the consoles. I hope we dont end up with a blindless firefight mode like COD or a pale imitation of Battlefield Flag or Gold crate captures. Im hoping that 4 / 8 of us on a side can mount massive attacks on bases where objectives are either to attack and capture or hold and defend using the massive array of vehicles and weapons on maps that are 3 times the size of the Battlefield ones.
I hope we dont get shirked compared to the PC version that is released at the same time with an inferior selection of maps and game modes that will in the long run make this stand out over other combat shooters if they keep up the back up with plenty of DLC unlike Dice who just seem to turn their back on a title 2/3 months after release when thousands of people are still playing their games with a desire for more maps and game modes.
Anyone getting the limited edition . . . . ;)
And finally in the shops now and in most of our hardrives is "Halo 3 :ODST" that is proving to be a more than worthy stop gap until Flashpoint arrives. Firfight mode is proving most enjoyable and we are looking for people to join us on Heroic gameplay so get in touch.
Gameplay in Bad Company 2 resembles that of Battlefield: Bad Company and takes place in the mountainous regions along the border of Russia among other places. Bad Company 2 will include locations in dense jungles and also sandy deserts within both story mode and multiplayer mode. The game allows players to play through missions using any tactic they choose. Like its predecessor, Bad Company 2 features destructible environments, however, more destruction is now possible; players can now completely destroy a building rather than just its walls (Whole fucking building's collapse including when taking the gold crate the walls give way so you have to EVAC quicksharp !!!). EA has stated that "micro-destruction", things like making small bullet holes in walls, etc., has been added. Bad Company is the second Battlefield game to have blood in it
