The mythbusters videos are a small guide to different cool stuff you can do or try out in BFBC2.

This is so great I decided to post it on the blog.

Bad Company 2 has proven so popular that our servers experienced such overwhelming demand that EA and DICE have had to add even more hardware to handle the player numbers. We continue to monitor online play daily to make sure everyone can play as well as continue to work on the game for future updates and DLC which you can get at no extra cost with the VIP code (PC BFBC2 players will get the content in the form of downloads without the need for a VIP code).

Later in March another map pack will be released containing Arica Harbor for Conquest and Laguna Presa for Rush

VIP codes are included in the box for all new purchases. Players that buy used versions and don’t have a code can purchase one via the in-game store for $15. PC players will get the content as a game update.

Developers DICE revealed on the studio’s official blog PC players can test out the game’s multiplayer component January 28 to February 25, roughly a week before Bad Company 2 hits shelves March 2. We will have BETA-Key give away contests starting next week.

Like the PlayStation 3 beta which concluded last month, PC players will try the game’s Rush mode, where teams of 16 battle for control of a military base. You better ramp up your PC hardware as this baby will need it  !!!

The map titled Port Valdez features snowy landscapes and battles “fought alongside the waterline towards a great oil industrial landscape in the Alaskan mountains,” says the blog post.

DICE says they will reveal more details on downloading the beta as the launch date approaches. No word yet on when a multiplayer demo will reach Xbox 360 owners. (Sorry xBox Fans, LOL)

Readers tell us if you are looking forward to Bad Company 2?

WHY Preorder Battlefield Bad Company 2? Let us tell you why. Because it has the potential to be a “Modern Warfare 2″ killer. Take of a minute of your time and read why this is true and judge for yourself.

Battlefield Bad Company 2 Gamescom ‘09 Trailer – Posted 10/27/2009

With the subtlety of a tank, EA is making it clear: Battlefield Bad Company 2 is the company’s contender to Call of Duty’s throne.

A few weeks ago in New York I had the chance to play a map of Bad Company 2, the PC and console military first-person shooter from EA’s DICE studios.

A preview event gives a casual first-person shooter player like myself little opportunity to assess the quality of the map. I fought in the almost desert-like environment in buildings, on a bridge, all under a seemingly hot sun. I drove tanks, stormed across the bridge and knocked down walls.  Destructible buildings are so much fun and change the game play.

Screenshots and even the animated stills from yesterday’s beta announcement already show how good the game looks. Bad Company 2′s engine, an enhanced version of its predecessort’s, supports the chipping and collapsing destructibility of any building in the game. Rockets punch through walls, as they did in the first Bad Company. But now tanks can crumple support beams to level even the interior frame. And, more subtly, an engineer with a drill can poke a hole in a wall and then shoot through it.

Multiplayer combat in the game is class-based. Each class, be it soldier, medic, engineer or recon can be outfitted with several items and attributes. Before entering combat you might switch your soldier’s rifle but also alter his radar to add motion detection. Perks are unlockable, secured as the player earns experience points in each battle and levels up. Upgrades are scheduled and unlocked per class. As we reported last month, the limited edition of the game will provide gamers with six upgrades, including some that enhance the arms and armor of vehicles, immediately.

Players can also earn pins during battle, which serve as more granular Achievements or Trophies, rewarding, say, good shotgun performance. You gain these for bragging rights.


The essence of Battlefield is the openness of its combat zone. Players can fight on foot, in helicopters or on tanks. They can command any vehicle or post in the battlefield, opening the scene to a variety of tactical encounters. The map I played was set for a Rush challenge, which involved one team trying to secure several locations by reaching them and holding off any attackers. I had my moments, gunning some of the rival team down on the sidelines. But I’m the kind of guy who rolls in on a tank and then gets blasted by the RPG trooper hiding around the corner who somehow knew I’d be there.

Look at those screens !!! Simply amazing.
