    One of the best games in BF series. Multiplayer is good, but not good as BF3.
    Campaign has good characters and funny humor, however, the story is generic cliche "murica vs evil russians" campaign

    His Story Is Not Bad! Nothing to Say About the Story. But Multiplayer Mode is Perfect! The graphics are the biggest problem for me, the gun looks very big, it covers the entire right side of the screen.

    I played this on EA Origins, and I only play exclusively on the single player campaign.

    The graphics still holds up pretty nice, the controls are okay-ish.

    The audio balancing is pretty bad, especially obvious when using a headphone. I can hear my own footsteps only on the right side. There are some glitchy ragdolls, but nothing game breaking. Some of the stages are very annoying, especially when dealing with helicopters.

    I got a very terrible screen-tearing issue with the game, but enabling v-sync will cause a very noticeable input lag, so I will have to compromise for this.

    Overall pretty enjoyable game.

At first you don't even know why you are even doing those tasks in the game, but with the story going on, you start to sort things out and becoming to be more familiar with you fellow soldiers, Sarge, Haggard and Sweets I have to admit that I was annoyed by how much maps I've change throughout the game ( from snow, to jungle, to desert, and again snow, jungle,....), also it is a little bit annoying how much grenades your enemies have, almost every single time I was left without cover because of their grenade launchers which they have all the time on those Russians assault rifles. Great amount of weapons, but with one big problem, no modifications at all, or better said, they have two or three same weapons but the only thing which changes are the weapon sights ( Iron sight, Red-dot or ACOG sight and that's all). The idea of the story is great, but there are things which needs to be changed.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Battlefield: Bad Company 2 başarılı bir Birinci Şahıs Nişancı oyunu. Özellikle oyunun fizik motoru çok iyi. Oyunun hikayesinden biraz bahsedeyim: Oyuna bir 2. Dünya Savaşı cephesinde başlıyoruz, görev Japonların elindeki bir bilim adamını kaçırmak. 2 küçük tekne ile Japon mevzilerine doğru yaklaşırken yanımızdaki tekne batırılıyor ve oradaki askerler ölüyor. Ardından bizim içerisinde bulunduğumuz tekne de fark ediliyor ve tekneye ateş açılıyor. Ekibimizle birlikte saldırıdan kurtuluyoruz ve karşı saldırıya geçiyoruz. Bilim adamını ele geçirip onu oradan kaçırmamızla görev bitiyor. Ardından hikaye 2. Dünya Savaşı'ndan modern bir zamana geçiş yapıyor ve kendimizi ABD ve Sovyetler Birliği arasındaki bir savaşın ortasında buluyoruz. Oyunda Marlow ismindeki ABD askerini kontrol ediyoruz ve 4 kişilik bir ekibin üyesiyiz. Marlow, ekibi ile operasyondayken Rus yapımı çok güçlü bir silahın replikasını buluyor. Bu silah savaşın kaderini değiştirebilecek güçte ve aslının bulunup imha edilmesi gerekiyor. Ardından ekibe "Agent Aguire" kod adlı ajan James Wyatt'ı kurtarma görevi veriliyor. Ekip operasyonu başarı ile gerçekleştirdikten ve Wyatt'ı kurtardıktan sonra Wyatt ekibe Rusların projesinin kilit isminin Kirilenko adında biri olduğunu, eğer onu yakalarlarsa silahın gizemini çözebileceklerini söyler. Ekip Kirilenko'nun bulunduğu yere baskın düzenler ve Kirilenko'yu yakalar. Ancak çok geçmeden bunun bir tuzak olduğu anlaşılır ve Kirilenko kaçar. Wyatt ekibi bilerek bu tuzağa göndermiştir. Fakat ekip pes etmez ve Kirilenko'nun peşine düşer, uzun çatışmalar ve mücadeleler sonucu Kirilenko'nun bulunduğu yere ulaşırlar ve Wyatt da orada bulunmaktadır. Wyatt ekibe babasının hükümet tarafından bilerek ölüme gönderildiğini ve onun intikamını almak için bunu yaptığını söyler, ardından Kirilenko, Wyatt'ı vurarak öldürür. Tam o sırada ekibin helikopter pilotu Flyyn helikopterden ateş açar ancak Kirilenko'nun adamları helikopteri düşürürler, kargaşayı fırsat bilen Kirilenko yine kaçar. Ekip helikopterle bölgeden uzaklaştıktan sonra şehir merkezine döner ancak şehir savaş alanına dönmüştür. Marlow'un gözüne Rus yapımı büyük bir uçak takılır ve çok geçmeden o uçak etrafa büyük bir patlama dalgası yayar. Ekip, Rusların saldırı düzenleyeceği silahın o uçakta olduğunu anlar ve uçak tam kalkarken içeri girmenin bir yolunu bulur. İçerideki düşmanları alt ettikten sonra ekip Kirilenko'nun ve silahın bulunduğu yere girmeyi engelleyen kırılmaz cama C4 yerleştirip patlatır ve içerideki silahı etkisiz hale getirir. C4'ün etkisi ile uçak düşmeye başlar. Marlow ile ekibi uçaktaki paraşütleri alıp atlamaya hazırlanır ancak Kirilenko ekipten birinin paraşütünü almak için üzerine atlar ve ikisi aşağı düşmeye başlarlar. Onların arkasından Marlow da atlar ve havada Kirilenko'yu vurur. Ekip aşağı indikten sonra komutanları gelir ve Alaska'nın istila altında olduğunu söyler, hikaye bu şekilde biter. Oyunun hikayesi pek sürükleyici ve ilgi çekici değil, çok yüzeysel ve konudan konuya atlayarak anlatılmış bir hikaye bulunuyor. Hikaye sunumu da sinematikler ile güçlendirilmeye çalışılmış fakat sunum konusunda da oyunun pek başarılı olduğunu söyleyemem. Hikayedeki karakterler o kadar sıradan ki ana karakter Marlow ve helikopter pilotu Flynn dışında kimseyi hatırlamıyorum bile, yani karakterler de pek iyi işlenmemiş ne yazık ki. Oynanışa gelirsek, evet bu oyunun güçlü olduğu kısım bu. Öncelikle tekrar söylemeliyim ki oyunun fizik motoru günümüzde bile iyi seviyede. Vuruş hissi güzel ve farklı silahlar gerçekten de farklı deneyim yaşatıyor, silahların çoğunun geri tepmesi ve atış hızı birbirinden farklı. Vurduğumuz veya patlattığımız düşmanlar hasarı aldıkları yere uygun tepkiler veriyor. Üstelik oyunda çevre etkileşimi üst düzey seviyede, patlayıcı fırlattığımız her bina patlayıcının isabet ettiği yerden yıkılıyor ve aynı şekilde ağaçlar, bariyerler ve çitler de patlamaların etkisi ile yıkılabiliyorlar. Fakat maalesef yapay zeka pek iyi değil, hem düşman yapay zekasının hem de ekibimizdekilerin yapay zekasının yetersiz olduğunu söyleyebilirim. Bölüm tasarımı olarak oyunun güçlü olduğu kısımlar da sıkıcı olduğu kısımlar da var, özellikle baştaki bölümler özgün ve eğlenceliyken oyun ilerledikçe bölüm dizaynları tek düze ve sıkıcı olmaya başladı, bu konuda oyun dengesiz denebilir. Oyunun grafikleri bugün dahi fena görünmüyor, yer yer kontrast göz alıcı olsa da grafikler iyi. Oyunu oynarken bazı yerlerde performans baya düştü, bu düşmeler anlık ve 1-2 defalığına yaşandı. Battlefield: Bad Company 2 genel olarak iyi bir Birinci Şahıs Nişancı oyunu. Expand

    The campaign is very fun, brings a story that holds, characters that make you like them, a very nice gameplay to play, graphics ok, very interactive scenarios.
    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.

    It is really worth playing despite the campaign being very short, especially that it is possible to buy this game on sale very cheaply.

    At the time of its release, Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare received almost universal praise. War games are nothing new – we already had Call of Duty, Medal of Honor, and to an extent, Wolfenstein – but Modern Warfare really did modernize the first-person shooter, and people liked that it reflected war as it currently exists in the Middle East, not war as it historically was. ElectronicAt the time of its release, Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare received almost universal praise. War games are nothing new – we already had Call of Duty, Medal of Honor, and to an extent, Wolfenstein – but Modern Warfare really did modernize the first-person shooter, and people liked that it reflected war as it currently exists in the Middle East, not war as it historically was. Electronic Arts eventually countered ActiVision’s hit title with a series of their own, the Battlefield series, and hired a developer that almost came out of nowhere, DICE. Battlefield: Bad Company 2 came out three years after Modern Warfare, and proved EA could modernize the war game genre as well as anyone else. The only bad news is it’s a lot of narrow passageways until the “battlefield” opens up, and there is a dense fog-of-war, obstructing faraway targets. Truth be told, EA and DICE proved a point: not only could Modern Warfare be replicated, it could be improved.

    As the late Ryan Davis of Giant Bomb said, Bad Company 2 follows “a ragtag group of misfits.” You, Marlow, and teammates “Sweets,” Haggard, and Sarge are attempting to stop a Russian called Aguire from terrorizing the United States on its homeland, for example, by disabling the power-grid. A lot of comedy comes from Haggard, a southerner, who, for example, gets on the case of your helicopter pilot, who says he’s a pacifist. The game has you chasing clues around multiple locations in South America.

    Again, you are sadly following a linear path, but open areas are in the game. You could be with your squad-mates in the jungle, and there is only one path forward. At times, if you venture out of the battle zone, the game gives you a warning and a ten-second timer to get back in fair territory. My old roommate loved Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic 2, but showed me how some open plots of land are blocked by invisible walls. It’s the same idea. Still, there are open combat areas, but now the biggest offense is “fog of war.” Probably in an effort to get away with low-resolution textures, the farther you look, the less you can see. Still, the combat really does feel modern, as you look down your sights and target the enemy.

    The game actually has fantastic character models. I think you could use these exact character models in a next generation game, and nothing would look out of place. There is a realistic woven-cotton texture on everyone’s uniforms, and detail is right down to individual finger movements. The environments aren’t too bad. The game features “destructible environments,” so a house wall could crumble, exposing one’s cover. I thought it was a neat trick, but it was clear the walls were meant to break only in certain ways. It isn’t something you see in modern shooters, unfortunately. I think graphically, the game was at its most impressive during a boat ride down a river, with enemies talking on a bridge above you.

    Sadly, the campaign is four and a half hours, but in 2010, that was reasonable for a first-person shooter. The thinking was, We’ll add hours of playtime with multiplayer, but I hardly touched it, preferring the single-player mode. Of course, Battlefield multiplayer is a big deal now, with Battlefield V and the Star Wars offshoot Battlefront. For me, DICE proved exactly what they needed to prove: another game’s success can be duplicated in a short turnaround time. It’s straight out of the common college business book, The Innovator’s Dilemma. One who innovates in an industry will be met with copycats who can price more competitively, sometimes forcing the innovator out. That said, Call of Duty still exists, but many don’t take it as seriously now, with the very disappointing Call of Duty: Ghosts, the silly space themed Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare, and the poorly reviewed Call of Duty: WWII. Any modder that can lift the fog deserves recognition. Otherwise the game is near perfect.

The fact that you sometimes can get 50 meters in front of your mates, before they consider regrouping with you, and the fact that enemies can walk just by you (espicially in the last mission) and that your squadmembers from time to time walk directly by enemys tend to be very disturbing.

I mean common? Haven't we seen it all before? The place in the story where our proud heroes goes from "Lets kick some ass," to "I can't make any difference anyways.... Im just a little piece of this big world, i just might give up." Jesus christ go emo won't you? Long story short version.

Firstly, it's fun and requires more teamplay than most games making things more interesting. The weapon mechanics are better than a lot of games today however at the same time they're extremely flawed in some areas (Example: Shotgun= Sniper, 2 shot kill from any range...) and overall I can't say they're as good as other tactical shooters like STALKER or ARMA II. It's biggest downfall is how dumbed down it is compared to the previous battlefield titles. Weapons do a lot less damage and everything is overly simplified. The class setups are pretty illogical and hurrendous, again they probably assumed console gamers don't think too much and won't care, but it really takes away from gameplay. Medics with LMGs is just stupid, it's not cool, it makes no sense and doesn't feel or work well in game. Assault's ammo-boy role is equally senseless and feel's wrong. Finally, there's the balance issues which again are more or less because the game is aimed towards consoles: since when were AT weapons cheap and overpowered vs infantry in battlefield series? Well they are now. Giving medic class the LMG and accuracy compensation for lack of prone has made them overpowered and as a utility class it leads to things like full teams of medics in certain modes. A lot of cheap, imbalanced things exist in this game. In the end it's pretty graphics, unique gameplay, and half-decent shooting mechanics keep it afloat but it's nothing like PC games used to be. If you get into it and find a nice clan you may get a little over 100 hours overall, after that I'd say the flaws will start to shine a lot more and the appeal will ware off. Expand

There are literally thousands of users with crashing and other stability problems with the game. There are also some other issues with connectivity that are being addressed. There are some weapon and class balance problems as well that leave many players wondering what EA was thinking. The maps however seems pretty well balanced, though some of them have quite a few glitch spots that are too easy to exploit if you know where they are. In all reality, BC2 feels more like a $50 beta test than a retail release. That being said, it's still fun to play and much better than other games in its class like MW2. The game does require a decent gaming rig to play, so keep that in mind. Better yet, you may be better off waiting until the game goes on sale. Maybe by then the stability issues will have been corrected. Far from a 10, a 7 seems like a fair rating since the game has a lot of potential. Expand

By the time you have all the weapons, you know what you are doing and your not making stupid mistakes anymore like running out into the middle of nowhere with no cover. But the main problem is, once you have all the stuff, you get bored.

Now, after hearing recommendations from my friends I decided to pick it up while it was on sale. ($14.99 on Steam) I figured that like its predecessor, this game was about the multiplayer, so I only played the first missions of the campaign (I don't think much of them) and afterward joined a server. Upon doing so, I noticed something within the first few seconds of playing. The sandbox-y feeling that I enjoyed so much back in Battlefield 2 was gone. Now, these much smaller firefight maps that felt cramped and linear have taken over and the huge maps that I loved had vanished completely. EA changed what made Battlefield ... Battlefield, and instead replaced many of those things with elements heavily inspired by games like Call of Duty. This came as a major disappointment to me, but I guess it isn't entirely bad. What they took from the other games, they built upon it and made it better. The destructible environments are fantastic, the fast-paced action is great, and even though the maps are much smaller, you are still given vehicles to travel around in. These elements makes the game-play more varied than the other generic shooters out on the market. Overall, it's good. Perhaps not worth every penny, but definitely worth picking up if you're into the Modern Warfare branch of the Call of Duty series, and would like to try something a little different. As for the hardcore Battlefield 2 / 2142 fans, if you love what the earlier Battlefield games had to offer, then hold onto that copy and save your cash. You're not going to find much of it left in Bad Company 2. -- Afterthoughts: The graphics are great. The game runs smoothly on my relatively cheap computer.

    Bad company 2 is a average-good shooter. First, the single player campaign is very bland as it puts you in a very linear story and featured with too many cut scenes which are not needed in a FPS game. It does not have too much fun to be honest and seems like it's trying to copy Call of Duty style which in my opinion is always mediocre.

I prefer the older single-player modes in the Battlefield series where you can practice your skills on various maps and play with different toys that you would find in multiplayer. Yes, Battlefield is always about online play and that's why people like it. Multiplayer mode, however, is good. The online action is intense and you must be smart on choosing a squad because if your team did not coordinate right you are going to lose. Also the game provide tons of the unlocks and achievements, so you could just dig them out for months. Final words, I will say BC2 is a good multiplayer shooter harmed by mediocre SP campaign, yet it's definitely worth checking out if you enjoyed online shooter games. Expand

  1. The new single-player mode isn’t that interesting, but the multi-player part is fantastic. With new destructable environments and new game modes Bad Company 2 is the best Battlefield game so far.
  2. Do you like first-person shooters? If the answer is yes, buy Battlefield: Bad Company 2. If there's a weakness it lies in the slightly brief single-player campaign, but the brilliant, potentially Modern Warfare 2 beating multiplayer more than picks up the slack.

    Though it occasionally stumbles, there's one thing that Bad Company 2 clearly demonstrates: DICE has graduated from the, "can only do a multiplayer FPS" class, and is perfectly capable of making a great all-around game.
