Beginning Bad Company 2

So I have joined the Bad Company 2 wave. I have no experience from other Battlefield games, so this is something new. The campaign was first somewhat difficult. Died a lot. But as the campaign progressed, so did I, and I felt it was easier at the end. Now I have turned to multiplayer games. Oh boy. The learning curve is quite steep right now. I’m level nothing, have newbie weapons and there are really a lot I don’t know yet.

But yesterday I found some help. Donncha from Gamertag: xeer2000 have made a great Battlefield Bad Company 2 for Absolute Beginners. Also make sure to visit FIELD OPERATIVE. He has tons of  BC2 stuff on his blog.

A good start is this video by Pixel Enemy:

R.I.P. Modern Warfare 2

Overall MW2 was a disappointment for me.

I thought single player war really fun, although the storyline was confusing. To many angles in the story, a thin plot and you didn’t play the same character all the time. It was fun to play, but the storyline was a mess. My favorite part was the Special Ops. More changeling gameplay and very fun to play with a friend.

My approach to the game was: First I completed the single player on Veteran, then Special Ops  on Veteran, and then I moved to Multiplayer. Played Multiplayer for a while, but it never got serious and I never got into it. And I bought the game for the Multiplayer part!

Shortly after I returned to Call of Duty 4. Hmm. I think COD 4 have a great fast paced gameplay without overdoing it. MW2 is too much. The pace is ridiculous, the kill streaks too awarding and playing in teams is just like… what teams! This is an one-man-army game and so boring after a couple of hours.

Still, I will probably in some time return to the game for the single player and the Special Ops. Played COD 4 single player shortly after, and that was great fun – once more. But also made it even more clear why I prefer COD 4. These days I’m playing Battlefield Bad Company 2. Never played Battlefield before and it’s very different from MW2. Time will show if it will last longer than MW2.
