Battlefield : Bad Company Series

Just had another annoying bug where two of my team were standing there shooting and stabbing at any empty space.

I go passed them, start to get shot and it turns out the "space" was what killed me!

Some high-tech soldiers these, they've got invisibility cloaks! :ROLL:
 
That in the SP?

This gif sums up my online experience with knives so far...

Yep, SP. I'm still finding that I'm dying all of a sudden as well, a random RPG or whatever seems to blow me up from nowhere.

Decent game but not even close to MW2 in SP.
 
Good luck jaygrim, I can only play during week-ends now :(.
I need 2 000 pts and I've completed the medic. But the servers won't let me.
 
Anyone know what the deal is with health and ammo kits?

I know for a fact I have no rockets left - I stand over an ammo kit. Nothing.

Do you have to stand over it for a while or stand over it and press a button?
 
If you see a bad guy - press the back button or select and it will 'spot' them. Basically your charatcer will shout something like 'SNIPER SPOTTED' and it will add an icon above their heads. everyone on your team will be able to spot that icon and track their movements for a short while.

If someone kills them you get a 'spotter bonus'.
 
It's crucial to use the Select button. You can also use it to give orders : "Attack A" or "Defend B".

The ammo isn't for large weapons unfortunately. As far as I am aware they just have bullets in them for your rifles/SMGs/pistols, otherwise it would refill your grenades as well.

Thank You. :TU:

Ahhhhh right. Thanks.

I managed to shoot down 2 choppers this afternoon with the 2nd rocket launcher you unlock. I just guessed and fired a shot off and hit it right smash bang on the main body of it. Awesome stuff seeing it spiral out of control and then explode and to see name after name after name appear of the guys who were sat in it still.

I also took one out with those stationary RPG's that allow you to fire and then curve the rocket as you track something. Got a lovely trophy for it.

Yes, they are. I don't know about grenades but I'm sure that they refill the rocket launchers. You might have to run over the ammo box a couple of times though as it will only resupply a certain amount each time.

I've not experienced it yet, and I've tried loads of times to refill rockets/grenades/explosive rounds. Have even died running for ammo packs to refill and take out tanks.

Maybe as you level up as a medic you give better ammo packages?

Well, it's the assault class that gives ammo packages (medic does health packages). And no, I'm sure that as soon as my squad mate unlocked ammo packages it would refill my rocket launcher. Quite effective to have a team mate put an ammo package under you in a hidden spot and fire away at the objectives in rush.
 
Sorry for all the questions but how do you change the weapon loadouts for each class? Do you unlock new weapons with each level of progression? Im not even on Rank 1 yet! :LOL:
 
On the load out screen go across and down with the dpad.

Oops I meant assault class. I'll try again later tonight and report back, but so far after many times trying i've found that it only replenishes smaller ammo :s.
 
Finished the SP - then went back and did the last mission on hard to get that trophy. Last mission was a piece of piss.

I enjoyed it but I didn't think it was as good as the first games and not as good as MW2's SP.

I saw a thread on gamefaqs titled "Nothing makes me more mad than..." and despite the things listing all being annoying it just made me laugh knowing that at least its not only me.

The tank driver driving away from me while I'm trying to repair it. And when your driving the tank, get out to repair, and someone gets in and drives off only to be destroyed about five feet in front of you.

For me it's gotta be the idiot who comes and stands right in front of me while I'm spotting enemies and setting mortar strikes on com stations and starts firing rockets. Hey thanks for setting up a flashing sign advertising my location, mother**

Knifing a guy in the head, hearing the telltale "chink" seeing the blood spurt from said head only to have him turn around and knife me.

Landing an apache to repair only to have the gunner go into the driver seat and take off before I can even repair it.

Instead of disarming a crate, you accidentally switch with a weapon that was left on top of the crate and it explodes

ASSAULT guys not dropping AMMO CRATES
 
Yeah it pisses me off that people still don't know how to play it. On rush last night they planted explosives and you see people on your team just running past, does my head in.
