   This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I truly recommend this fantastic game as it actually brings out the true meaning of modern warfare, and generating what the future may hold. When I first got this, it seemed difficult, but this is actually what real-life is like, everything, the gunshots, the sound, everything. Fixed with stunning graphics and real time events, this is one hell of a game you won't wanna miss.… Expand

   Frostbite engine amazes. Played MP and SP for the last 8 hours straight. Had one freeze up in SP, but loaded it back up after and resumed Frostbite engine amazes. Played MP and SP for the last 8 hours straight. Had one freeze up in SP, but loaded it back up after and resumed from previous save. Graphics blew me away on my GTX260 running at Medium. My clan's hosted server is running strong and we had a great time. Squad based play is key to winning. Weapons are sweet, ranks and unlocks are cool. Stat tracking, server browser, friends list all work well. Controls easy to map to BF2 settings. Zero complains here.… Expand

   Battlefield Bad Company 2 has one of the best, most realistic multiplayer engines Ive ever played. Some users complain that their computer isBattlefield Bad Company 2 has one of the best, most realistic multiplayer engines Ive ever played. Some users complain that their computer is not strong enough, but not the quality of the game. I am running a Core i5 750, HD 5770, and 4GB RAM and the game runs perfectly smooth. Though the singleplayer campaign can be slow at times the multiplayer is what really pushes this game over Modern Warfare 2.… Expand

   I only played the campaign so I have nothing to say about multiplayer.
   The note is not higher because the campaign is really short, the characters are developed just enough to enjoy them there in the 6 hours of the campaign. Clearly a more multiplayer game that I don't like.
   It is really worth playing despite the campaign being very short, especially that it is possible to buy this game on sale very cheaply.

   Why does everyone like this game? Sure, it has dedicated servers, but the browser limits options like not showing the IP address. The idea of Why does everyone like this game? Sure, it has dedicated servers, but the browser limits options like not showing the IP address. The idea of destructible environments is great, if only the enemies showed tactics of some kind. Everyone claims the game has excellent sound. Sorry, but some of us don't use 7.1 surround sound, and for us all the in-game sounds seem muddled. Gunshots sound terribly generic and both reloading and the ease at which you die is pathetic. The maps are too large, yes, too large. Call of Duty: World at War gave a better sense of battle tactics. Sure, it was every man for himself, but at least you didn't spend so much time walking across the map, looking for an enemy. The graphics aren't terrific for the terrible frames per second they produce on lower end machines. Running causes you to drift to the left and getting hung-up on the environment is way too common. Heck, even Modern Warfare 2 was more fun than this. I really want to like this game, it has some good "borrowed" ideas. The trouble is the execution. For instance, don't show a cutscene and sgive you control of the camera, only to fade to black. If you are going to use the in-game graphics for cutscenes, give back player control and let them continue playing. I'm pleased the developer wanted to give PC gamers a break (and for that alone they deserve a combined rating of at least 5), but after playing 100's, and I mean hundreds of PC games this particular effort justs smacks of port. In conclusion, poor optimization, poor sound, poor story, and the lack of immersion just ruin what should of been a great game. I wouldn't be so upset if I didn't want to enjoy the game as much as I do.… Expand
