Bad Company 2 Valparaiso Rush

This is a game of rush with Duck from about a week ago. We had great fun in this one, well, I did anyway, especially when it appeared that Duck spontaneously blew up right in front of me! Watch our gamertags when that happens. The speakers are constantly lit as I laugh hysterically and Duck wonders in shock what happened!

I follow the Cardsnumber7 route out through the water in base 3, and (re)discover that I can set the bomb on that MCOM station while under the thing.

After that things just went downhill, ah well.

COD Black Ops: GRID TDM

Watch me get killed over and and over, and occasionally kill enemy players in this game of Bad C Call of Duty Bad Company Black Ops. I’m so used to playing Bad Company it’s second nature to write it!

Anyway, this was my 3rd game of Black Ops. In my very first game I managed 1 kill and died several times, second game on Havana was a blast and I did a bit better, and here I did ok, not brilliantly, but ok.
In a recent video Colin bemoaned the fact that he was getting a low 2+ KDR in the game and I wonder what good games are like for him! When I go positive I break out the Champagne!

Thanks Mike for playing, and wish I’d known that was really you in the earlier combat training game!

Next video will be Bad Company 2, and I have lots more footage and great clips to post from that!

Well, two rubbish games of rush on Isla,…

Well, two rubbish games of rush on Isla, and one decent game of Conquest where we slaughtered the opposition. Good night of gaming! 🙂

Next time I’m playing I’m heading to Atacama Desert. I totally forgot about Nick’s video describing a very successful strategy for piloting the Hind on that level. Hopefully I do better than the last time where I flipped it within seconds of taking off. Yes, yes, I have it recorded. So does Duck. Oops.

Black Ops will probably arrive tomorrow so may fire that up in the evening for a game or two. I can’t believe it sold even more than Modern Warfare 2 on it’s first day. Activision are just raking in the money with that franchise, no matter who develops it.

Bad Company 2: Smoking on Isla Inocentes Rush

Yet another gameplay, but this time rush on Isla Inocentes. Audio was recorded through my Macbook’s internal microphone and it sounded fine when I played it back before uploading but now I can hear a slight background hiss.
Unfortunately the 3.5mm jack on the Macbook isn’t powered so a cheap and cheerful mic won’t work and I need to use a USB one. Complications, complications, complications!

From the description I posted on Youtube:

Using smoke to confound the enemy on Isla Inocentes. I never do well when I use smoke but it helps the team sometimes. I spend so much time smoking up an area I become a target for snipers. I guess I have to be exposed to enemy fire more often than I like too.

I did figure one important thing from this game. You can spot enemy players through your own smoke.

Audio was recorded on my aging Macbook’s internal mic and it’s nice and loud. Shame about the slight background noise and right at the end my wife came into the kitchen but thankfully didn’t do anything but roll her eyes as I spoke to my computer!

My KDR is slowly creeping up, it’s 0.86 now. I doubt I’ll ever get it to 1.00 simply because I don’t have time to play it that much and my early games in standard resolution really put a dent in my stats. One of these days I’ll be a good player. Yeah. Right.

Defending Bases on Nelson Bay

Bad Company 2 is a game that relies heavily on team work to win matches. None so necessary as when the crates have to be defended in game of rush. Here’s a game where I helped in that role several times.

Notice I got revived? The poor medic got shot down by the same mounted gun that shot me down a moment earlier. Oh dear. (see this video for more of his reviving work..)

Music is a great remix of C64 classic game Delta’s main tune. Remix by Graeme Slapp while the original was by Rob Hubbard.
