Bad Company 2: new site and YT commenter

I’m glad to see Paul finally posted a BfBC2 video on his blog. It’s a great montage of clips from the Vietnam expansion (hell of a lot better than my unlisted first commentary!) Go leave a comment and give the video a thumbs up!

And in other news, a new WordPress.com blog called In Bad Company has been launched by Chris! Expecting good things from him as he did the guest commentary on my last video.

On a personal note, it’s great to see the Bad Company 2 community grow stronger on WordPress.com!

I joined Dvotee and TheFingersHurt on Xbox tonight for Bad Company 2 Vietnam but unfortunately TheFingersHurt got kicked off by his lousy Internet connection after about 5 minutes of play.

After that it was Dvotee and myself for a while, and every single game we joined was a losing one! They were games of conquest and our team would almost always be down to it’s last legs:

Starting Tickets Ending Tickets
18-101 0-48
69-157 0-56

So we helped turn the tide but not fast enough and we were out manned a number of times and never had a full game.

Our final game was rush and we were 8 against 10 with 5 members of the SNV clan on the other side. I was defending one crate when I was literally bombarded with bullets and grenades. It’s recorded, hopefully it’ll make a good and hectic clip!
Thanks Coyno for joining us for that game. Sorry we lost!

Finally, after reading this I decided to try marksmen LMG training and the same perk on the engineer’s kit and I think it helped. The “infinite ammo” of LMGs helped too! 🙂

I joined a private match organised by Nick and others last night. Boy, were they tough games! Nick was a busy bee doing admin work but I have no excuse. I was simply outplayed by Cards and everyone else. Even Conor, who normally does quite well felt the pressure and we departed our last game, me with a KDR of 0-9. Ouch. I appreciate the invite, but I probably shouldn’t have joined!

Still, got some good clips, hope to have them uploaded in the next few days.

Panama Canal Conquest with Stuntman Duck

I have something special for you today. This is a Bad Company 2 game of conquest on Panama Canal that we played a few weeks ago. Duck did his stuntman thing on the quad bike and whirled around celebrating base captures and we did win, but I’d like to thank Chris for taking the time to do an absolutely brilliant commentary. Much better than I could do!

Actually, this reminds me of an incident last night – Duck and I defending on Oasis and we both took out a tank with our repair tools without knowing the other was doing the same. Afterwards we celebrated with a double teabagging before noticing a recon in a building right next to us. He got a taste of Duck’s knife for good measure. Good games!

Tips for tweaking Bad Company 2 (PC)

Playing games on consoles is so straight forward. Pop the CD into the machine and hit play. PCs are a bit more problematic. Bad Company 2 has many options for tuning and here’s a few I found this morning. I’ve found others and I’ll add them to this post when I find them again! 🙂
