Battlefield 2: Modern Combat
 

I just got it today. I know Tidus2005 and Glory Gamer both have it. It's a sweet game. I've not played Battlefield for computer but this one is similar for the most part. Anyone else play it online?

Should I cough up the cash for it?

I think it's definately worth it. The damn servers are fucked up to hell though. Right now and for the last hour they have been completely down.

I play the pc version online... fantastic, especially on my new beast!

I was going to get the PC version when I got my new compuer about a month ago, but I held off since most of my friends were getting the xbox version. The servers are back up and once they work out the kinks this game will be awesome.

Man If I see you guys online playing that game one more time... FUCK play some halo with me fags.

BF2 PC > BF2 console

Not when all your friends play it on console.

Yes ill stay with the console .... and if anyone here is playing it on x-box live ... feel free to join our clan...

Explain the game to me. Premise, etc.

Okay... well it's basically battlefield 1942 but with modernized weaponry. There are 2 modes, conquest and CTF. The most common is conquest. Each map has 5 or 6 strong points called "flags." You stand by them for a period of time until you have captured it. You also use these flags as spawn points of your choice. Once you control more points than the enemy, their tickets start to go down. Each team starts with somewhere between 400-500 tickets. Each respawn also takes a ticket. You can drive tons of vehicles ranging from a pickup truck to a helicopter to a boat. It's pretty sweet. It supports 24 people per game.

so is there like a death match

It's not mindless combat like Quake. It's all team-based objective games.

There are 2 modes, CTF which is self explanitory. And then there is conquest, which is the most common. There are strong points you must capture and use as spawn points and if you control more points than the enemy they lose about a ticket every 2 seconds.

Hmm, actually seems pretty interesting. I'd probably have to play solo shit to get acquainted with it at first, but the 24 people in a game sounds ridiculously fun!

sounds gay. Play Halo




J/k sounds pretty sweet. Maybe i wont be cheap and will buy it.
OR.... i can save my money for Halo 3.

You have to save up for the X360 before H3, though.

It's fun... you guys should get it. However, the servers are very buggy at the moment. For some reason, everytime tidus2k5 logs off it resets all of his stats.

Do the stats actually matter in this game, or is it kind of a pointless number thing like Halo?

It's a pointless number thing more or less. You can play on servers with people the same level as you if you are higher up but that's the only perk I've found of being higher level.

i just bought it if any1 wants 2 play send a friend invite to toot and poot

How do you like it?

The PC version supports up to 48 or 64 man servers, IIRC, though most of them have lag issues. The most insane is running a high pop server on small maps...

Doesn't the PC version also have a more complex rank system where you unlock new guns and such?

Yes, it does.

They like to dumb things down for us console players :rolleyes:

Yeah, more than likely.

thank god for that!!!!

Tidus and Stever were playing BF2 last night instead of Halo! They SUCK!

yea that game is pissing me off

Good for you. It sucks that people are allowed to do what they want doesn't it?

Yah. Fuck choice.

Lol i have been playing excessive amounts of BF2:MC because i am ranked in the top ten on xbox live going between 3rd and 6th in the engineering kills leaderboard.

Poop on engineers. I hope they patch your homo overranged shotgun. haha

So it's like the opposite of Halo2 then?

Not exactly. It's really powerful from up close like in Halo. However, it does pretty good damage from far away as well.

You must be host a lot or something. Shotty kinda sucks unless you manage the beatdown right away.





And Tidus! Get your ass on Halo! You're ALWAYS playing BF!

Your timing must be off or something. Shotgun rocks at close range. Very rarely is a beatdown required.

I actually prefer to shoot people with rocket because they own the shit out of vehicles.

Sometimes people die in that game.
