that was the first nopunctuation review I heavily disagreed with. Normally i'd lick his delicious balls, but he completely ignored the multiplayer component which seemed to me the PURPOSE of bc2. The single player was obviously a tacked on modern warfare2 clone. His review of it was correct but meaningless. It took me about 10 hours to beat. Who the fuck would buy bc2 for the singleplayer?

What I hoped to see was a review of the multiplayer vs modern warfare and other multiplayer games. But eh, I guess that's the one failing of this dude is that he has consoles and doesn't have a lot of gaming friends.

take less personal offense, just accept it for what it is: one more internet douchebag talking about something from his own biased viewpoint. In that respect it's wonderfully funny.

Agreed....except for the ball licking part...

Let me tell you a story.

I was being an engineer, trying to attack the defenders last crate in Valdez. Well, they somehow got us pinned down in our base after stealing our tank, and I was taking shelter in this building.

Then the UAV came through the door, smoking heavily. It spots me, and goes all wild in front of me, going up and down, sideways, bumping me, and so.
"The hell are you doing? Get off. Stop tha-"
I lose my hearing. The wall behind me was blown to pieces. Then the building gets hit with all sorts of gunfire. Apparently, the UAV was going crazy on the defenders, slaying them like the fist of a vengeful god, and now everyone was after him. I quickly realize that he needed a repair, and I do it after moving to a new cover, while the walls are being blasted all around us.

I finish repairing the drone, and we get out of the building as it comes crumbling down. The first thing the UAV does is take out a guy behind me with it's machinegun, and shoots our stolen tank with it's missile, and I shoot him with my Gustav. It isn't enough to kill the tank, but the driver hops out, me still handling with my weapons, and the UAV takes him out too.

I then proceed to repair that tank and blast through their defenses, as the UAV proceeds to shoot anyone that gets left behind me, trying to C4 me. I hop out of the tank next to point A as the tank gets blasted to pieces, and I prime the charge. At this point, we won't be able to arm it again if it gets defused. We defend the charge by ourselves, me and the UAV up in the skies, and finally I am shot dead by this shotgun fellow. He then proceeds to disarm the charge that just begins the final countdown and gets shot a few times by the UAV - but his gun overheats, after killing so many defenders! It's a defeat, it won't cool down fast enough...

AND THEN THE UAV PROCEEDS TO SMASH ITSELF ON THE DISARMER, ROADKILLING THE DEFUSER AND STARTING TO SPIN OUT OF CONTROL, EXPLODING TO PIECES AT THE SAME TIME AS THE STATION BLASTS TO SMITHEREENS

Here is the R10 Server changelist


Punkbuster is required ON for ranked servers
Ranked servers cannot be started with a password
Autobalance message goes to text-chat instead of in the middle of the screen
Added weapon balance tweaks to a number of weapons – we are eagerly awaiting feedback!

We aren't going to tell you what weapon balance tweaks we have done, we want your unbiased views on the changes before we detail what has changed. You can discuss the changelist over on the official BFBC2 PC forums here: http://forums.electronicarts.co.uk/batt ... rvers.html

As requested by the community, here is the exhaustive all inclusive changelist of all balance updates made in the R10 Server update for PC.

Increased the base range of all Automatic and Semiautomatic weapons for more consistent close range combat.
Slightly increased the damage of Semiautomatic rifles over long range for more consistent damage output.

Increased the zoomed burst accuracy of LMGs and decreased LMG accuracy when moving to reduce LMG run and gun.
Decreased the base damage of the M60 and XM8 LMGs to bring them in line with the other LMG damage values.
Decreased the damage of the PKM over long range to balance it with other LMGs.
Increased the base damage of the Type88 LMG to balance it with other LMGs.

Slightly reduced the base damage of the M16 and G3 to balance the increased range.
Slightly increased the damage of the AEK971, F2000, AN94, and AUG over long range to balance them with other Assault Rifles.

Reduced the lethal blast range of the 40mm grenade and M2CG to highlight their role as a secondary weapon against infantry.
Slightly Reduced the max range of the 40mm shotgun to balance it with other shotguns.
Slightly increased the base damage of shotgun rounds and reduced their range to clarify ideal shotgun combat distance.

Reduced the base damage of the PP2000 to balance the increased range.
Increased the damage of the 9A91 over long range to balance its lower magazine size.

Increased the damage and range of the M9, M93 pistols to make them more desirable as a secondary weapon.
Increased the range of the MP443 pistol to make it more desirable as a secondary weapon.
Increased the damage of the MP412 over long range to balance its low rate of fire.
Slightly reduced the rate of fire of the M1911 pistol to balance it with other pistols.

Increased the repair and overheat speeds of the Power Tool. Now overheats sooner but repairs the same amount before overheating.
Increased the maximum number of Motion Sensors that can be carried from 2 to 3 and increased the speed which new sensors are acquired from ammo boxes.
Significantly increased the speed of the Tracer Dart projectile to make it more effective against airborne targets.
Increased the reload time of the Mortar Strike and reduced the damage it does to heavily armored vehicles.
Decreased the range of Bolt Action Sniper and Pump Shotgun Slug rounds when using Magnum Ammo for better Kit Balance, especially in Hardcore.
Slightly increased the Health of soldiers in Hardcore for better Kit Balance.

Increased the benefit from the Medkit Heal+ specialization to make it more desirable as a Specialization.
Decreased the benefit from Vehicle Reload Speed to balance it against other Vehicle Specializations.
Slightly decreased the benefit from accuracy specializations to balance the changes to range and accuracy tweaks.


Fixed a bug where the BMD3 would take extra damage to the front armor.
Reduced the explosive damage from Attack Helicopter cannons.
Increased the damage of AA guns against all targets. The AA gun should be much more effective against infantry on Port Valdez.

These changes will eventually make their way to the 360 and PS3 as we work with our partners Microsoft and Sony to continue to support BFBC2 on all platforms.

With <3, Demize99.

Reduced the lethal blast range of the 40mm grenade and M2CG to highlight their role as a secondary weapon against infantry.

BOOOO

No BOOOO. There's gotta be an arming range to those bastards or something, I'm tired of getting dropped by some asshole's splash damage.
