Default BFBC2

i saw scrolling across the new sticker in BF1943 that you can pre-order BFBC2, and get the same gun unlock style that was in BFBC.

I honestly hated that idea so much, and even now i hate that unless you veteran rank up, you can't unlock guns (BF1943 counts, but they still have not added veteren status)

Anyway, all things aside, think this will be one of the games of the year TBH. Only draw back is i think it might suffer San Andreas syndrome, where the original game was sooo good, the next game was over-hyped, and wasn't as good as it was talked up to be

You CAN unlock guns regardless of your rank in BFBC2, only one you cant unlock is pre order unlock (which was 1) others were find all five which got released to the public after 4-5 mnths, i like unlocks they keep you working towards ranks.
BFBC2 cant go wrong, its still the frostbite engine, same team who made it, single player seems to have the same sense of humor


only thing they need t o do is sort servers.

There's still 1 gun that isn't unlockable by code, the FF2000 or something? Assault Rifle?

overhyped? i havent heard many people talk about this. i cant imagine what else they can do with the multiplayer other than what theyve already done to warrant me purchasing it. the single player was ass in BFBC.

That was the pre order gun i believe, they wont unlock it for others cause that of course would deter people to pre order.

Its much the same as the gold plates in GOW2.

I enjoyed the single player, i found it the humor awesome and liked how they ended up AWOL and trying to score the gold for themselves

didnt enjoy however looking for all the gold bars, not really my thing searching buildings to distract from the game.

I've since sold CoD 4 and CoD 5. I traded GRAW 2 and Rainbow Six. But I've kept BF:BC. Best multiplayer game on the 360, hands down.

Default Will EA put in dedicated servers in NZ/OZ?

I'm guessing no. Will they lower the price to reflect that? I'm guessing no.

Will I buy the game second hand so that EA get none of the profits...yes.

Well, if history is anything to go buy you'd be completely wrong about that. I picked up B:BC for the PS3 48 hours after it was released in NZ on tradeMe for $25 less than retail. You see, lots of gamers in NZ still don't get into the multiplayer thing so they only buy for the single player. Once they get through it they sell it. Or maybe they are selling for some other reason completely. Who cares as it often means a bargain for me!

Look at other games on PS3. Bioshock, Killzone 2, MGS4, etc. All fell sharply in price on TradeMe within a few weeks after their initial launch. The only real exception seems to have been COD4:MW which remained relatively high for quite some time. It still sells for more on TradeMe than K2!
