Battlefield Bad Company 2 Review (Spoilers)

Story/Plot


In October 1944, a group of US commandos infiltrate an island in the Sea of Japan to extract a Japanese scientist. They successfully secure the defecting Japanese scientist who was working on a secret weapon codenamed "The Black Weapon" (a scalar weapon), and attempt to escape the island on a submarine. But after repeated warnings by the scientist, the commandos witness the effects of Black Weapon's power and perish under a tsunami caused by the Weapon

In the present day, Bad Company are on a counter intelligence operation behind enemy lines in Russia in attempt to secure a high value individual of the US military, and a device related to a scalar weapon. Despite escaping Russian soldiers, and completing what they thought was their final mission in B-company, the device is discovered to be a fake. Being impressed with their previous activities, Army General assigns them to the Special Activities Division (SAD), and tasks them with delivering information to Agent in Bolivia. a chain of a events unfolds on B company

The Story is very interesting. It has its odd humor and many funny refences to other FPS of this Gen.
The characters are more believable then ones of Black ops and so on. The one problem i have with this is its quite short
3 to 5 hours at max


Gameplay/Multiplayer:

Now gameplay and Multiplayer is what makes battlefield what it is today. The feeling of entering a heli and blowing tanks up from above, or entering a Jeep to flank the enemy is fantastic. You feel like you are a soldier on battlefield.
and everyone should know that BFBc2 is fully destructive. You can blow holes in cover or just in walls instead. You can bring fences down or whole houses down

But there are some set backs to all this. first is the knife. it is one word, terrible. You try to knife someone and it takes too long or it glitches out on you and you fly in front of your enemy making you a easy kill.

2nd is that there is some unbalance on some maps. mainly the new Vietnam maps. the opposing team might have tanks, jeeps and helicopters while you have just your guns and a machine gun turret or two.

3rd is you can get stuck on little ledges or a rock and you just get stuck there and just fucking get annoyed when you are in a firefight with a other guy that can move freely

The Multiplayer modes are as followed

Rush
Conquest
Squad rush
Squad Conquest
and Squad Deathmatch

Newly added is the onslaught mode which is Rush against AI which are quite smart "at times"


Graphics/Environment:
The Graphics of BFBC2 are amazing. With huge vistas of land, Jungle or desert. every Map or level has extremely high detail. but mainly houses or buildings are the same. the Character detail is very good too

Audio:

yes the Audio. DICE are the most famous for there Audio and they haven't failed yet.
The Guns sound real and not like pea shooters. The closer you are to Explosions makes your player ears screech.
The Audio is simply perfect




Overview:

BFBC2 is a great FPS and it has earned to be called a Battlefield game. If you love military Shooters. you will love this game. and its a great time to get used to BF as Bf3 is just around the corner.

This is probably the only game i'm currently playing at the moment.
