official Battlefield: Bad Company 2

In CQC you have no need to scope. Surely, your aim should be good enough to deal with a few baddies at close range, without scoping?! x4 Scope all the way

Obviously at some point I will have both and try them both, so we will see!

[LingeringSoul]

The only time I use the 4x Rifle Scope is when I want to pick off people in the distance. For everything else, I use the iron sights or the RDS. It's just a matter of preference, really. :)

I like the 4x just because it makes it easier for me to use the Spotting feature. I know that it doesn't actually give you a tangible advantage when spotting (you need that specialization whose name I can't remember), but for some reason I find myself spotting a lot more when I have the 4x slapped on my gun. Having to fight in close quarters with the scope sucks though (or at least, I suck at it). I usually just end up hip firing and hope for the best.

I hate CQC with the 4x Rifle Scope. It feels like I have tunnel vision or something. :s

Maybe I am missing it, but are there no options to save custom classes (similar to MW2)?

As far as I'm aware, there isn't a way to save your loadouts indefinitely. I'm not 100% sure though but I think the last update made it so that your loadout is saved between sessions.

I have never used scope in CQC. Am I weird like that? Do you guys use x4 Scope when in CQC?

The game saves your last selection automatically now.

I do see my load it saved between sessions. I just wish I could setup for example, my F2000, with a certain sight, LW, and then something for the vehicle. Then, have my M16 setup with a different sight, extra ammo, and something else for vehicle. Than I could access those everytime I started the game up.

No biggie to be honest, just would be easier. Thanks again Anaron.

As you can see, I am starting to play the game more than I had in the past. I got burned out on MW2 finally.

That's not right. Your kit selection should save between servers and game sessions as of the patch last week. It's worked just fine for me. Are you running the game as admin? It probably requires that, another badly implemented thing by DICE. :wacko:

[Hedon]

I am talking about on the 360, and when you turn the system off when done playing, then back on and it would save your custom load outs for every weapon you have created.

[trag3dy]

Oh I see what you said, I totally misread it. My bad. It's early. :blush:

Yeah I think it only remembers for a session, meaning once you turn the console on and off it will reset to default, but could be wrong there as I do not play it a whole lot.

Randomly posting stats, for the heck of it - Can't believe I actually got past 20 despite only playing for a 'short' time after launch and now haven't played for months.

My stats FTW!

[Yusuf M. Veteran]

I'm ~120 XP away from 24. :p

A Month :p Game hasnt been out for Months(2 or more) :p.

Just picking on you man, but great stats. Ive put 50 or so hours and just hit 23 and half way to 24. Ill always play 1-2 hours a day. But with SC its like an hour BC2 and then 2-4 hours of SC

Not sure if you have any server admins on here, but if we do would you kindly read this please. Kind of wrecked my sessions last night :(

As for the stats, check my sig! :p

[WastedJoker]

I'd ban them from my server but it hardly gets any action as it is so I doubt they'd ever appear on it *l*

What's the online scene like for BC2? Has it dived as quickly as BC1 did? Just wondering as i'm thinking about picking this up soon :)

Servers are packed mate 24/7.

And depending on what system you want it for you can get it fairly cheap as well. I think there's a post in the PC games sales thread that says you can get it for like $17 or something.

i got a problem!. when i am trying to find a server it finds nothing!. even my history display nothing!. i read somewhere it causes by a firewall problem even i dont use any firewall. i even disable the windows7 standard firewall!. how can i fix this problem?

[Livin in a box]

@w33zy: Not having any firewall is very silly, especially if you're using the Internet, not just games. Gawd knows what viruses you may have.

Anyway, do you connect to the Internet via a router with a firewall?
