Console is evil! Well, is it not? Here came out Battlefield: Bad Company 2, where “we will meet with familiar heroes”. What, met? We don’t know what we don’t know, but a single campaign is not even so much plot as about the guys themselves and their detachment. On console resources, the authors at this place brutally recall the events of the first part, are touched and sigh, but we only begin to get acquainted. And not from the beginning, but from the middle. I don’t know how you are, but I feel like I got a stub of an apple -incomprehensible apple … for $ 49.99.
Now this is what: to compare the object of review and Modern Warfare 2 I will not. I just feel that every one and a half reviews will do this, and for that, some reasons. I don’t know, really why Bad Company 2 secretly made a winged Nemesis – let one genre, and the specifics of these projects are very different. In Modern Warfare 2, the scale is not the same – we are fighting there in the corridors, in the city, then in the city, again in the city, in a landfill, again in the city. In network mode, all cards are also small, but here … say, in some places to be left without transport – death is like. Well, the approaches are different: in mw2 there are only tactics, and in Battlefield – Strategy Plus more developed tactical interaction at several levels. In general, do not wait, the scandal and fan watering of each other is not very pleasant to taste, smell, color and consistency with liquids with comskovy formations will not be.
Bad Company 2 – Game in the series Battlefield For us Sign. For the first time in the PC there is a full -fledged campaign. Therefore, at the beginning of the article we will analyze it, and we will leave the network battles for sweets. At the end you will have a little surprise, so read this opus completely. Amen.
Company guys
Before us is the team of the Commandos and the masters for all hands. Preston Marlowe is the main character, we control them. The stupid sergeant Redford, who knows how to command loudly, is considered the most experienced and to him Three days before retirement. Fraud Haggard, similar to the Texas village. And the radio operator Sweeter is a typical computer genius and even with glasses. In this warm company we must … no less than the world to save. Perhaps I will not start a conversation again about how everyone is tired of the stamp about the heroic American special forces that saved (saves, saves) the world is already n times. Banal and stupid. Further.
It all starts in Japan during World War II. The detachment must steal a scientist. It turns out unusual – it seems that the game itself is about modern conflict, and the prologue is an interactive screensaver. The find is excellent and curtsy in the direction of Battlefield 1942 (or 1943, but it is only on consoles yet, therefore it is not considered).
We run, shoot, tra-t-tu, pyche-drush, all that. In the end, we learn that the Japanese came up with some overwhelming weapons: it, they say, cuts down the electronics all a lot of kilometers. The mission ends, our time begins … and we are fighting with whom? With yourself! Cool! Again in the role of villains Russians. Moreover, not ordinary, but their nerd versions, because again everywhere a wealthy cranberry (its giant crown covers our largest country of merciless crisis in the world) and dashes instead of fire extinguishers with directives instead of instructions;Green boxes with the marked “Kuralduu Kychtor” (even scary to think what is in them);idiotic posters “injury” with advertising of battles without rules. In general, hello Modern Warfare 2, developers from Dice They also think that in our Beautiful The country live only drinking bears, rolling down the streets on one -wheeled bicycle. I’ll go stretch the earflaps, wrap up in a quilted jacket and smoke a mahorka to match.
Moreover, the most offensive, perhaps, is that some lousy detachment is so calmly cut with dozens, hundreds, thousands, although pseudo, but Russian fighters elite special forces. They even shout without an accent and swear almost obscenities – how they can not be identified with our? Unless American weapons in their hands at least somehow reminds that everything that happens is nonsense and cretinism, which to look for.
Okay, let ours get used to. We pass by the barrels from the “Russian oil” directly towards the myriads of banalities and stamps. The first is the oversized weapon that the Russians create to turn off the US energy system and the attack (to whom these Americans are at all, and?). The second is a double agent offended by the government, because it substituted his father during the Second World War. Third – “It is time for us to save the world, guys!” – a literal quote from the game. Like, this special forces are so cool that humanity is so, it is trifles. Another, perhaps, the most fatal stamp is our whole team. Look at them, these are familiar types directly from the stove. Not people, but figures with completely predictable and recognizable characters. And do not wait for the depth – the “insides” of the actors during the campaign are not disclosed. The switch will remain a typical suffocation-botanik with glasses, although it shoots aptly;Hag is a lover of gross strength and scumbag, and the sergeant is a poorly educated, but a black mentor of advanced years (directly Mr. T, so wise). Marlowe is generally any – just unraveling without a hint of distinctive features.
So they sailed. The whole “loner” is intellectually – brawy shit. Therefore, the brain can safely turn off. Now the spinning enters into business … and we understand what they think on the other side of the planet, because ..
In terms of entertainment and action Bad Company 2 canceled. Single campaign to the eyeballs is stuffed with all the main chips of the game. If there is a house in the frame somewhere, then we will explode it to hell, or opponents will do it. If we are in a tank, then everything that can be destroyed will certainly fly away into the sky. If we are on a helicopter, then there are many enemies below on trucks, ATVs, armored vehicles … And everyone asks a couple of thousand bullets to their soft bodies.
If you don’t peer, it turns out very cool. Chase – masterpiece. We rush, for example, on an ATV along a narrow path. Around, sand, desert, wheels raise the veils of dust, not a damn thing, only the fence flickens along the edges of the path. Speed and dynamics are perfectly felt. We are trying to cure management, we try not to crash into the fence, but then the enemy jumps out, lets the rocket, we dodge. Then some indescribable ball of unimaginably heroic actions and maneuvers-came. A surprised and pleased smile on his face. Due to speed, we did not understand what happened, but it was cool. And this is enough.
Classic shooters from a helicopter side places, Like races, capturing. There are a lot of enemies, but their no need to kill in order to go further (which sinned AVP, for example, having discouraged). They flash only in order to create dynamics and action. We do not lead the sight for each, do not look for a candidate for death, but simply watering everything with fire, just fir. So it is necessary, excellent find! Imagination itself draws numerous dangers, the finger itself presses on the button. Plus is reliable, because in the end the machine gun is a means of suppression, not a total sniper extermination.
Throughout the campaign, we will regularly fly, then ride, then attack in the tank division. And destroy, destroy, destroy-a Wow effect simply goes off scale. Funny.
I was not in vain that “if not to look closely, then”. Because the devil, as you know, in the little things. And such unsuccessful little things have Bad Company 2 There is. All military trucks carry explosives to take off the air. Near buildings and Be sure to Enemy positions have barrels or boxes of a red acquaintance. Boom! And the enemy, along with shelter, went to the forefathers. Marketers call this an abundance of tactical possibilities ..
They landed the wall – the same “stumps” of bricks remained in the opening, and the same objects are on the three regiments of the old house, but in different order. Our hero with XM-8 in the screensaver, but we did not have such a gun-only M60 and a rocket launcher. A trifle is more serious – a prolonged helicopter mission closer to the denouement. There were already several of them, but in this we will Shoot enemies are just as stupid and endlessly long as in Darkest of Days. The ending generally sins with this, unfortunately. The closer to the finale, the longer the hordes of enemies have to grind in small gruel.
All this somehow spoils the overall impression. Primitive and unpleasant little things.
There are a lot of friends and my friends
As it has already been from the origins, Battlefield – This First of all Network game. Campaign – appendage. And built -in demonstration of weapons, capabilities. We look at how computer opponents explodes and have fun, and in the mind we already imagine what will happen in the multiplayer. And so we invented that everything would be so cool, fun, epic, colorful, clearly, Firulevo and in general by the way. Then we go to the corresponding section, and there … delight! Multipoling regime in Bad Company 2 – Just a fairy tale.
And although I did not make it right, saying at the beginning of the chapter about the fairy tale, there is no point in lurking-everything is really cool. Let after the months of Modern Warfare 2 to local ballistics and physics will have to get used to it, but you just have to plunge into this theater of hostilities, it immediately fascinates, I give to the tooth. Destruction – this is what was needed, what is fun. It is the influence of the player on the landscape and buildings that helps to plunge into the atmosphere and imagine himself to be a cool fighter of a coordinated team.
Preferences in weapons are not important. Snipers sit in minks, but in Bad Company 2 you can’t go to bed (this is already a tribute to the balance), so the shelter must be chosen carefully. The attack aircraft is always on the forefront, as, however, doctors – there is no time to get bored with these guys. Engineers – in Peckla itself. The rest are fighting with the infantry, and they should also follow the technique. And all this at the same time and 16 people from each side. And the cards, although large, but 32 faces are a very decent crowd.
And in general I am very glad that the amount of transportation was cut on all cards. Two tanks are the most maximum that you can meet. There are no battles of armored vehicles here, when on each side there are four to five iron collars, there are several still in the air, all sorts of guns, jeeps and infantrymen climb like cockroaches. Any transport of gold. This is a serious, but also vulnerable power. As in reality, even one person with launching can easily cut off the life of not only a steel bird, but also its terrestrial brothers. Mobility and versatility – time trends. And here a lonely soldier is simultaneously and strong to be considered a formidable weapon, and is weak to always act in the team.
Yes, by the way, about teams. Here without playing is nowhere. Of course, post -shooting shutters is fun, but … it’s most interesting to play when the army is not of random people. The main thing is to provide voice communication and establish the coordination of detachments.
I would not want to do it, but I have to. At the time of work on the article, EA Online has serious problems. It does not enter the server, then it does not log into the system, then it throws up protection from cheats, then something else through Jo … a well-known place. We are waiting for patches and hope that everything will work as it should. The network mode is really cool, I really want to play it.
I am plow. Tribute.
This chapter is a tribute to objectivity, about which a lot is repeated to me in the comments.
Graphics – excellent (I would put 9.134, although there is no adequate line for numbers, it’s just from Balda). Everything is beautiful, detailing. Of course, there is demanding to the iron, but what to do, now everywhere is so. Animation is not bad, people are not like sausages. The gameplay is interesting, the multiplayer is cool (I put 8 for everything.5 – I don’t know why, I looked at the crystal ball for fortune telling and this number surfaced). The sound is amazing (102 points). The plot is idiotic, but we still have to praise developers (I don’t know why). Applying a universal line of evaluation of creativity by points, we put the plot somewhere around 7, because the AAA-Class of the AAA of the AAA of Evaluation in the region of 5 cannot receive. Conclusion: Of course, must have. There are no other assessments in this stamping and preparation-pre-depth-depth system. To health.
If there were no numbers
Battlefield as a network action movie was left. In fact, a single campaign is a tribute to the requirements of the market. Cannot be a purely multiplayer project to have the same success as ordinary, He will simply not be accepted. The essence, in fact, is a simple set of rules. You make Single and Multiplayer – you get Standard game. You only do multiplayer – you get a stump. Another Battlefield I would just sink … somewhere in a bad place, for sure. We understand this. Developers and publishers too. But can this serve as an excuse for another weighty cranberry about Russians, and even with a tasteless cretin plot? We must rejoice and wag the tail in gratitude for thirteen single missions, whatever they may be? No matter how you dodge, this doesn’t matter It is felt by a chirrel with a dining – falsity climbs out of all the cracks, computer actors are mediocre, and you can’t believe in this nonsense at least for a second.
With a crooked smile, I look at two halves Bad Company 2. I understand that she earned a good assessment with an exceptionally magnificent and deep network regime, if you think the brain. If bone, then everything is “cool”, “wow”, “atial” and what else they will write in the comments.
Pros: spectacular campaign;dynamic shootouts;fascinating and diverse network mode;universal destruction;expanse for tactical actions;detachment system;ballistics.
Cons: cranberries in a single campaign;Stamps and banality of the plot;the monotony of destruction, interior and exterior items;Some missions are excessively tightened;The character of the characters is not revealed;Constant problems with the input of the server, errors of the PunkBuster system, departures.

To: [strong] demiantreead [/barong] [quote] statistics from the experience of communicating with people [/quote] as an argument does not roll. Figures where? Communication experience – purely subjective value. [quote] (in the end, I work in the disk sale department, specifically – games. Communication with people is enough in abundance [/quote] and I worked in game clubs, in game magazines, on sites, talked with community and flipped through hundreds of pages of all kinds of forums, studied the relevant press. And this is still not enough. Does not even give a close statistical picture. At all. [QUOTE] As for the single, in the opinion of the majority [/quote] what majority? Most customers of your outlet? Most of the world smokers of the world? Most fans of cheesburgers? [QUOTE] And if in short – the single in the BF liked the people stronger than Cham single in COD6 [/quote] He liked it. And for the people you cannot say. You do not know this people, but just try to strengthen your position. In vain. Firstly, I repeat, this is a too small group for a statistical sample, so the argument based on this argument is not counted, since it does not have justification and confirmation. Secondly, to me and everyone else the opinion of these majority-somehow on the side. Thirdly, I did not see significant arguments-only some vague majority, peoples and everything else. Where are specific examples? [quote] And as for "This terrible stream of delirium" – nonsense, of course, he is nonsense – only until the recent change of power (the change of Yushchenko, with his ideas of independence, it is not known from what, to Yanukovych) in Ukraine just like such nonsense and stuffed 100 are glad for the day. And I have this data from personal experience (communicating with relatives in Ukraine) [/quote] somehow did not understand how this justifies the cheap of the plot.
To: slavikit and I have an answer – to sleep with another administrator: about now on the case. I have a question for the author. Why COD: MW2, if there is an even more stupid plot with Russian oil, received "amazing", And the BED company 2 escaped "Booking"? It’s a shame.
The game did not go, I was on Steam Pass from the cookie … And I didn’t go
To: [Strong] musteekin [/Strong] Do not speak a classic? And you remember Red Alert 1.2! BFBC2 is the real classic! Reincarnation RA, only in the genre of shooter (comedy shooter). COD6 – just for this pathos, the twisting of all the cracks and frank and unheated Russophobia tried to rot, but here – of course there is a lot of Pafis, but some kind of offensive, not evil chtoli. You play for one of the morons (which are more reminiscent of Russian assaults than super soldiers) and somehow imperceptibly stop paying attention to who you shoot at. Yes, the game has a lot of small shortcomings in terms of gameplay and the realism of what is happening – but if you recall how many such shortcomings were in the same COD6, then local flaws are simply invisible dust against the backdrop of coding shortcomings COD6. And the multiplayer in COD is delighted only the first evening, and then nothing but yawning is already expressed (few cards, the same type of gameplay, unintelligible systems of servers (it was nothRom to ruin the selected servers), and just no anti -cheat system), but here it is just super. The game only deserves "Amazing", This is the best shooter over the past year and a half (even if you take into account the shortcomings – this is still cooler than COD6 times 10 times)
[Strong] Chupakapra1 [/Strong] Everything is perfectly preserved, you just need to figure it out! [Strong] Predator92 [/Strong] I explain: to work as saving, for Windows 7/Vista: We go into the properties of my documents, in the tab "location" We indicate the path not C:/Users/Administrator/Documents, but simply C:/Documents and all!(after creating a folder there) for Windows XP: Open "My computer", disk C (or any other disk on which Windows is installed), create a folder "My doCumbs" (It is important that it is in English), then click the Start menu, click on the right button "My documents", Properties, move, then look for the created folder "My doCumbs" and move the folder there "My documents", Press the use. But at the expense of the game, I will say that I liked absolutely everything except toy weapons (no weapon is finalized), especially for a long time laughed over the translation. Playing play, play you will not regret.
Why all this ? These tanks, turntables, multi -kilometer cards . For what? On average, we play with a company of 4-5 people, 2×2 in essence (3×2), here the tactics can be a feeling of elbow. And play in random, yes, meat .. .Is it only interesting – to mumble? In my humble opinion, games with a small number of players are more interesting in terms of combat tactics. Yes, and 5×5, in my opinion, the ceiling. 1- Commander (machine) 2- machine gunner 3- machine gunner (sniper or fighter with a shotgun) 4- machine gunner- grenadier (there is a view of the underpower;)) 5- sniper where, more ?
To: [Strong] ryuzaki [/Strong] precisely 10 out of 10 (well, or to the extreme 9 out of 10)! And this is not we burned out, but the developers of COD6 (such an awkward-accelerated bullshit), and we just enjoy the magnificent shooter. And at the expense of the same type of destruction of buildings – just out of curiosity, and you yourself can name at least 10 (or at least 5) games in which you can destroy the buildings? Yes, so that it is not completely completely completely, but in parts? Personally, I can only call a couple right away: Crisis, Red Faction 3 (for a free sphere, you can also add RF 1, 2). And so everything is perhaps. And here we were given not just to shoot in a multiplayer, but also to be struck by everything. And this is just some kind of fairy tale (well, if someone lies a spoon of tar, then you can add "Fairy tale, with computers of our time"). Yes, and her requirements for modern games are simply insignificant (GF8400 by 256, 1024 Memory and Core 2 Duo 2 Process.0Hz), even the same COD6 and that were the requirements (and the cards and destruction are much smaller) the game Super 10 \ 10
To: [Strong] denis688 [/Strong] And you did not try to put it more likely? Then 2x and 4x . TD will appear (maybe of course you just stick it, but I have a full order with the settings and with smoothing)
To: [Strong] demyantreead [/strong] [quote] do not speak the classic? and you remember Red Alert 1.2 [/quote] remembered. RA1-2 has [Strong] its own [/Strong] History. Not stamping stupid species "Russians against the United States", And a whole story: with the help of a time machine, Hitler was removed, and Stalin stood in his place – hence the. No idiocy, but a game with history and intentional exaggeration. Without clowning. BFBC2 and Red Alert even compare funny. Actually, I do not see the point of responding further – there are too different levels of games in terms of the plot, history and everything else.
I bought, launched, opened my mouth, and I can’t close it with a dosihpor =))) this is something, the code did not make such an impression at the first launch. Mast Hev!
I completely agree with the author’s assessment of [Strong] [/Strong]. Beautiful graphics? Yes, it seems ordinary (and weapon textures..this is sho for nah?returned to 2005?)) I join a person who said that it is not worth comparing MWF2 U Bad Company2. These are different shooters. Just someone likes one thing, but someone else. But pi*children that this game is better than IMF2 6 times from the series "My iPhone 3G is better than your nokia 5800 a hundred times"
By the way, I forgot to say, the people who do not persist, for sure you have a pirate, the early pirates suffered from this disease, but now the repaki has already been released in which this problem is solved. And in the dews there are no such problems.
[QUOTE] I join a person who said that it is not worth comparing MWF2 U Bad Company2.[/quote] I said this in a review. And then he repeated. (I am the author, only TS-S, in secret).
To: [Strong] Mustdiekin [/Strong] Okay, maybe the comparison with the RA was not the most successful, but thoughts about that was – exaggeration (comedic execution), and not a violent pathos -dining in all the cracks. It is compared with COD6 for the most part only by single (from which side do not look, but they are still similar), and with there that the BF single calls much more positive emotions, although not all, but the vast majority will agree. So again, how not
to twist – the BF from this side is again cooler, but the multiplayer is really very different from them (someone like purely corridor shooters, but give some spaces), but even here in terms of level "realism" (so much as "This" In general, it can be called realism (in the good sense of the word) for a computer shooter) BF again will be higher (COD about the destroyed space and tactics associated with this resolution only to dream of the score) and of course, by and large, first of all, it is precisely forHis frankly idiotic seduces and the slurred motivation of actions and Hayali (especially Russians. All the same, the episode in Sheremetyevo (carved in the face) is not at all in any gate. Yes, and the idea to make a terrorist, for whom the Russians also ran to Cod4, a folk hero. smacks of a political order (the game was welded just during "imitation of the Cold War" between Russia and Ukraine, which the Americans helped. So force Americans and Ukrainians to dislike (hate) Russians, how it does not sound funny, white just in the interests of America)), but here is certainly an idiotic, but at least its way to present humor is impregnated (compare humor with the first part notI can, I didn’t play, but comparing it with COD6 – all the same it will be more sympathetic here, does not inspire such ardent disgust and hatred of developers) and in the sorcerer I can agree that these games are simply different from the multiplayer and you should not compare from (well. if only on the schedule) the game is super, it passes in one breath (even in places, tightened levels leave much more emotions than single in COD6)
From a bad company, expected an assessment of amazing.Now it is not a shame that the computer does not pull)) I will go to go to mw2.
[quote] Okay, maybe the comparison with the RA was not the most successful, but thoughts about that was – exaggeration (comedic execution), and not forcibly pathos -dining in all the cracks.[/quote] If pathos is a trick, as in mw2, for example, it looks normal. Bad Company is just "Comedy" History and separately idiocy. I did not see a stalk – just one idiocy. I do not know what was in the first part – and I do not want to know, it should not affect the second. [QUOTE] with COD6 it is compared for the most part only by single (which side do not look at, but they are still similar), and with there that the BF single calls much more positive emotions, although not all, but the vast majority will agree. So again, if you can’t twist – BF from this side again the cooler comes out [/quote] from where such statistics? [quote] But the multiplayer is really very different from them (someone likes purely corridor shooters, but give the expanses to someone), but here it is in level "realism" (so much as "This" In general, it can be called realism (in the good sense of the word) for a computer shooter) BF will again be higher (COD about the destroyed space and tactics associated with this permit only to dream of a meal) [/quote] I do not understand, why do I need it to meGive arguments and comparisons with mw2? I clearly wrote in the article that I am not going to compare these games. [QUOTE] And so, of course, COD6, by and large, primarily for its frankly idiotic sucks and the slurred motivation of actions and Hayali (especially Russians.

[QUOTE] The game is super, it passes in one breath (even in places, tightened levels leave much more emotions than single in COD6) [/quote] I’m glad that you liked it. I have no doubt.
PPC. This is one of the isostest reviews about such great)) Games that I saw on my beloved Stopheim. People who play in MV2 and do not know whether to buy a BF and pushes away from this game. You didn’t want to compare with the code 6? You didn’t succeed. Well, fuck, okay. But why do you drive EPT on BF2 simultaneously comparing with the code in the comments?)) (the last post) must be read in order to understand that the author is noted and disgraced)) xd . Where did you finally crawl out to decide that the game "Bold" From the code?)) Everyone does not agree with you, but you will shit in a hat
and problems with the pankbaster and t.p. (In general, this was the only problem, but everything else: "I would not want to do it, but I have to.

I did not speak. The desire was gone) The description of the screenshots on Stopgame is always with humor and deep meaning)) and then. there are people from the code degenerate..)) the author NUB of course, but the review could be worse, nouu is not so bad. It is necessary to add multiplayer in this game is much more diverse (of course, what everyone compares with) than in the code. As for the campaign: the BF was never famous for its singles, here you can look at the campaign like a bonus, when it doesn’t slabwell the Internet, you can go around the single, find all the guns))
