    I presume you're referring to the current Bad Company 2. Games are large as there's up to 32 players in a match. Maps in BC2 are also much larger than MW2, though still small be normal Battlefield standards. There's also much more emphasis on team play and playing your class. Camping isn't beneficial since the game modes rely upon you attacking your objective to win. And of course there's proper servers, unlike MW2.

    God I miss BC2... I played it a lot (too much probably) last year before the leaving cert startso much more emphasis on team play and playing your class. Camping isn't beneficial since the game modes rely upon you attacking your objective to win. And of course there's proper servers, unlike MW2.ed looming. Amazing game, but the amount of hardcore servers really used to piss me off. They've added a by filter now I assume.

    The battlefield series tends to lend more on the side of "fun" than "1337 Skillzzz etc", there's more opportunity to try ridiculous plans when you have a 4 player squad, like this stuff:
