Multi Battlefield: Bad Company 2

[Bill]

Got a beta key yesterday and had to wait till the afternoon of today for it to work (tried midnight - 1am; wasn't working). Still not open for play though. Something about getting environments ready?

I'm excited to see how the game will be.

I'm in the beta but cmon I haven't been able to find a game.

 

[Bill]

Games are now up on the beta.

 

[Bizarre]

Wow. This is similar to the first. Just different maps.

 

[Robby]

Sweet, good thing they didn't change too much stuff then. The first game was awesome.

Any spare keys for EU? Please PM
Thanks

Game is fun. Wish it was a little cleaner looking but it's core gameplay is money.

 

[Robby]

Just pre-ordered my copy today.

I am so excited for this game. I am losing interest in MW2 so I hope this game will be able to keep me hooked.

I seen every video about this game and I can't wait for it to come out.
Hopefully a demo comes out for the xbox360 soon.

I tried the beta and its better than mw2 but im not buying it.

Pre-orders are up on Steam for the Limited Edition but I'm hoping for a 4-pack...

 

[EvilSeph]

Double post, but I think it is worth it.

I just received word that DICE has received a lot of questions about the possibility of a 4-pack for BC2 and that they are working on hopefully making this an option. Nothing definite, though.

The 6 unlocks are tempting, but since this will probably come to India on time I don't think I wanna spend 2.5x as much on it. MW2 is probably the first and last thing I will ever buy on Steam.

I should start smuggling CD-Keys :S

Anyone know if the retail copy uses steam? I want the beta just not with steam...

The retail doesn't use Steam - no chance of that happening anyway seeing as BC2 is being published by EA, they have their own digital distribution store.

Ah, thats pretty sweet then. I just pre-order the pc version at my local gamestop.

Hopefully they give me the extra download codes and beta...
They said check back in few days....

DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRNNNNNNN :argh:

Its best order from online if you really really want play in the beta.

I'll let you know if they really do give the beta keys in-store or not in few days.

Do you guys get billed for the exact amount on Steam? I got billed around Rs.100 less for BC2, and also for MW2 and almost Rs.50 less for Shazam which was only 4.99$ to begin with.

Not sure if this has been posted or not, but there's lots of gameplay in this vid. Looks beautiful

sweet. I hated the ps3 controller for the beta its just didnt feel the same as using a xbox controller

 

[TeamOverload]

Not all that impressed with the game. I have a feeling that it's going to end up a lot like the first one. A lot of people will talk about leaving Modern Warfare for it, and may for a little bit, but then will probably coming back in a month or two. Just my impression.
