Video: Bad Company is fully destructible

battlefield games are very cool but am i the only one whos is completely bugged that the 3rd person view doesnt have a reticule like Frontline Fuels of war or mercenaries 2. I personally think BC looks great but would much prefer 3rd person vehicular combat WITH reticule

anyone agree ? :-)

I hated when they blew up the silo and for like a quarter of a second it looked disgusting. The shell just disappeared and a few explosions were initiated from places inside where the shell used to be. Ugh, why can't they just get it right? I dunno, blow up some real stuff, check out what happens, replicate it. Shit.

And the crate shooting wasn't too great either.
The tree's fell when something nearby (10 metres) exploded?
Where was all the debris of the broken houses? Aren't there usually piles and piles of broken bricks? The stuff people get trapped under?

Yea ok, my day's not been great so far, I woke up about 40 mins ago and realised i have 2 exams in a few days which i've not started revising for.. :(

Wow. That last explosion was insane.

Wow, that's really cool.

old video

That's cool and all. And I know it said pre-alpha but, wouldn't you be blown to bits if you were that close to those silos? I mean hell, those houses looked like they got nuked and your just standing there like nothing happened.

you guys who are talking shit are tards. most games have nothing destructible except watermelons and red barrels, this is GREAT compared to that. The houses getting blown up were awesome. stop your bitching.

:)

Balls-shit-crazy!

That last explosion was NUTS! although...It wouldn't do all that damage to the houses...the most it would do would blow out the windows.

Hi, first af people who say some news are old should try and write in about them.... *S* but im no better saw this on gametrailers under, user videos.....

A great beta test video !!, im buying this game game 2 sec, before it hit the shelves!!! its one of my most wanted games *S*

crysis go home *S*

I'll have to let my disappointment slide because it is a pre-alpha build. This is a good first step, but if you're going to do realism you might as well go all out.

What are you talking about? This game is sweet WTF are you all you guys on? Of course this is just a demo so its not like the health feature or damage was on and thats why he was still alive. Just so they could show the destruction of that last explosion. Fucking Moron!

looks freakin sweet. I just hope it doesnt make me hate other fps that i cant blow up everything in.

looks amazing.. now if they can put this tech with a call of duty (or better) caliber story and multiplayer, they could end up with an amazing game.

i just hope the rest of the game is as great as the technology behind it.

Cant wait for this game, but these developers need to get personalities. For a video of someone blowing shit up it was not as exciting as I had hoped.

Sweet, but the balance needs a lot of work - glass only shatters with a direct hit, while other things are destroyed too easily from collateral damage...

THIS GAME LOOKS F**KIN SWEET! Fully destructible houses? Nice!

W00t my fifth featured submission! I should throw a party

wow. Games are finally beginning to become what they truly should be. My only complaint is that they choose to leave parts of the structure intact. That seems a little wrong to me. Fully destrutable would mean I can blow those support beams out like a real house, and see NOTHING left. They should make even those destructable. That way if say some1 is hiding in the top floor of a hosue sniping and whatnot in multiplayer, I can go place a few charges in the basment on the supports and have the house crumble completely.

Also debris needs to deffenitly stay. If it dissapears its not helping much. Thos trees could use some better crysis type physics as well. It didnt look like any branches or anything could come off.

This may be a pre-alpha build but Usually games like this dont change all that much into release in the core gameplay aspect. Mostly just the completed polished game comes from here.

To me, games like crysis and this are a great indication of where the industy is headed (in shooters) and I cant wait for like 5 more years from now when its all done properly and to maximum potential.

Mike,

Thet probably didn't use enough exsplosives...I bet another blast brings the rest down.

I am excited for another video or a demo...multiplayer

I'm worry about the frame rate, i would say. As a reference, the mission when you have to save cpt. macmillan. Play it with "recruit" difficult and "A bad year" cheat enabled (for those who dont know this cheat, it makes your enemies explode into olds tires after you killed them.) Anyway, run around and kill everyone, you will see a bunch of old tires (lots of tire) and the game starts to lag a little.

View those old tires as "destructible human", it already effects the fame rate. That is just a small scale, imagine it on a larger scale with a battle is going on.

I don't know, may be by the time it is released. Hope the developers will master the coding or we will see "550p"? Time will tell.
