I've heard a lot of good things AND bad things about it, so I'm tempted to get it. I had fun with 1943, and the balance between the classes in that game was laughable, so I might still like it. Worth the MSP?

Do you care if you die?

Easily... It almost feels like a whole different game the playstyle is different dont get me wrong but it's awesome and after playing it i almost feel like i play better on the normal multiplayer.

I mean, yea, it can be frustrating because you die a lot, and the Huey is terrible, but I really like it. I think it's worth it.

Depends on how fun it is. I'm just using the Flamethrower to try to get as many kills as possible, but if it's not that fun, then I will.

The hit detection IS fixed for the most part, right?

I don't have a problem with it. The flamethrower is loads of fun, although everyone thinks you just need to spray it all over to kill, which doesn't work.

Well, maybe I'll get it, and try it out.

My goal is to try to find a game where I don't care about stats (good luck, I know, lol), so I'm going to try to use the Flamethrower to make me happier and laugh more.

I may download it after I get back from Christmas dinner with my other side of my family. Mad

Dont look at your stats ever? I wont lie i have an addiction to look at my stats to see how well i am doing. The flamethrower is good but it can be a little rage inducing.

I constanty look at/calculate my stats in every game. I'm tempted to abondon BC2 though, statwise, because the game just seems so random after some of the updates, and with the number of people, you can't really control what happens.

If you can use the flamethrower as a lawls weapon, then go for it. For me, it's the most rage-inducing weapon I've used in a MP shooter before.
But Vietnam is very fun, though it is a lot harder to do as well as regular BC2. I just learned to have fun with Vietnam for the most part though, so it's all good.

There are gonna be things that'll make you rage, you know, but for the most part things are pretty good.

And to be honest, i think hit detection has more to do with youre own connection than anything else. I never really experience any problems...

hit detection isn't an issue, it's better in VIetnam than BC2.

The levels dont seem as well thought out though. On rush or conquest, like vantage point. Who ever runs the fastest to B wins! Don't want to go to B? well sorry you don't get a choice. Oh your NVC? sorry there is only one road up.

You'd think DICE would have realized by now that no one, and I mean no one likes funneling. -EVER-.


Oh, you're good at this game and want to use your brain to flank the enemy? Too fucking bad, run down this narrow opening with nothing but MG nests and snipers on the other side just waiting for you.

Or instead I'll voice my opinion because instead of just "dealing with it" I try to put my ideas out there in hopes that other people agree with me and in turn the developers make changes to improve the gaming experience. Really? "Deal with it?" If we just dealt with it, we'd still have lazer pew pew M60 death rays and lolabans all over the place, and White Pass rush would still be a fucking horrible map amongst many other things. I'm sorry, but Battlefield Bad Company 2: Vietnam isn't the Vietnam war, it's a video game.

Dice comes here????

Dealing with it involes allot less bawing and more doing though.

The terrain works against both sides. The team that deals with it is the team that wins.

I didn't say DICE comes here, ever heard of twitter? Also, have you ever wondered why Oasis is such a popular map? I doubt it has anything to do with the fact that it's non-linear.

1: So wait, just because the devs can't hear it here, I can't say what's on my mind?

2: This ISN'T 'nam, it's a video game.

3: Fun is subjective. Games should be balanced around the majority, and the majority obviously enjoy maps like Harvest Day and Oasis.

4: No, really, I like being good at my hobbies. Part of being good at this game is maintaining a good K/D with a good SPM. How can you like sitting at the respawn screen so much?

1: Sure you can. and I can comment on it. and if you don't like people disagreeing with you, too bad.

2: Video game about the Vietnam war. Sorry Nam don't look like nebraska. When I want to play a Nam game with asometric maps I play black ops. When I wanna play Hamburger Hill I play this.

3: Go play them then.

4: Dunno since I'm not there most of the time. lol at all stat comments by default.

I don't mind people disagreeing with me, but your condescending attitude irks me.

Wtf does asometric mean? Do you mean asymmetric? If you do, then lol because I doubt the jungles of Vietnam are very symmetrical what with the whole chaos of nature and all.

I do play them. I don't understand how you can enjoy being funneled through the same terrain time and time again. There's no room for creativity in playstyle, it's charge up the hill and hope you don't get shot. Sure it can be fun, but part of what makes FPS gaming fun is changing strategies on the fly.

There's that condescending attitude again. Good argument for that one.

Bawing attitudes irk some I suppose. I don't really care either way.

It is called default complaint on any MP map in every game ever. Methuselah even says that shit is getting old.

Attribute my enjoyment of it to my knowledge of the Vietnam War.
As The NVA now I know what it is like to see through the eyes of a NVA grunt as he is forced into the meat grinder becuase them Reds like to send their guys face first into a buzz saw.

as the Americans well....OMG ZERG RUSH!!!! HOLD THE LINE!!!!

Could the 1st area use a little cleaning up, sure. But people over sell it. I would like to have seen it at night with Flares and bombs going off all around but still the same map.

I seem only condesending to those who might feel overwhelmed by my confidence.

Me trolling? BAH! I scoff at such conclusions and thoughts since they are very scoff at worthy!

I don't even see the reason why I should be called troll. there was a question as to why and then I gave the answer to it. And since the answer wasn't something defeatist I shall be called a troll.
