Battlefield: Bad Company 2

BF: Bad Company 2 has WWII level

DICE is sneaking a Japan-based World War II level into Battlefield: Bad Company 2.

That's according to an ESRB rating for the game, which read: "In single-player mode, players conduct missions on an unnamed Japanese island during World War II and then move into the modern day through jungles, deserts and snowy terrain."

We heard last year that various weaponry from Battlefield 1943 would be supported in BFBC2.

These discoveries may point to no more than a scene-setting flashback. EA may also be testing the waters for a Call of Duty: World at War-like romp.

Battlefield: Bad Company 2 will be released on PC, PS3 and Xbox 360 on 5th March.

On second thought, I hate this game and I hope we never play it. Anyone for more Modern Warfare 2?

With increased destructive power, Battlefield: Bad Company 2 blows a hole in the sides of most modern warfare first-person shooters.

Multi-player action across massive maps is Battlefield: Bad Company 2's speciality. Join a squad, jump in any one of 15 vehicles including tanks, helicopters and ATVs, and tear across the warzone.

In Battlefield: Bad Company 2, that warzone changes dynamically during each game – as explosions realistically tear holes in walls, opening up new firezones, and even tearing buildings down. That piece of cover won't necessarily always be there for you.

On top of class-leading destructive power, Battlefield: Bad Company 2 offers increased squad support – keeping players in the action. Plus massive customisation and progression options: 40+ weapons, 15 gadgets, 13 different character specialisations and 50 ranks to climb to become the king of the battlefield.
The Limited Edition includes 6 early unlocks

4 Vehicle Warfare Unlocks:

1. Improved Vehicle Armour – An Up-Armour package mounted on all vehicle types decreases the effect of both explosive and penetrating warheads, significantly improving vehicle survivability.

2. Vehicle Alternate Fire - Additional weapon packages mounted for the driver of all armoured vehicles, greatly expands the range of targets the vehicle can successfully engage and destroy.

3. Vehicle Motion Sensor – Upgraded Sensor to locate enemy units in direct proximity to the vehicle.

4. Tracer Dart Pistol – Launched by compressed air, this magnetic dart attaches to any vehicle surface, allows friendly shoulder launched rockets to lock on to and track moving targets even beyond line of sight.


2 Classic Battlefield 1943 Weapons:

5. M1A1 Submachine Gun – Popular with Paratrooper and Commando units in WW2 for its rate of fire and stopping power the M1A1 is still seen in the hands of paramilitaries today. Reliable but heavy this classic weapon is still a powerful force in the hands of a Battlefield Veteran.

6. M1911 Pistol – Adopted in 1911 by the US Army the M1911 saw heavy service in WW1, WW2, Korea and Vietnam. Highly customised M1911 are still favored by Special Operations forces for its reliability and the power of its large .45 calibre round.

[CRracer_912]

I've been playing the demo on the PS3 the past couple of evenings.  Apparently I suck at this game.  I'm hoping the pre-order early unlocks can help rectify this situation

Gears 3 will be a war game  and good luck on the DC2 and Shenmue 3, more chance of Lord Lucan winning the Derby on Shergar than those ever showing up
