Ahem, that said, the latest multiplayer trailer for Battlefield: Bad Company 2 above, serves to remind us of all the good times we had the first time around. It also, unfortunately, serves to remind us that the second game still isn't out for another three months. Luckily, some of you will get to enjoy the multiplayer beta starting today. Do us all a favor, folks -- shell the snipers!

Eh... Your unable to rank up for some reason. I kept getting 0 points at the end of the tally or "Negitive 5000is" which is kinda retarded when theres people already rank 10. (WTF?) Headshots arn't ALWAYS a single hit kill which is kind of retarded imo. They seem to be irther 2 shots or a single shot all of which i make my mark center mass of the skull which has blown my mind. Definately wont be buying this game either for it's multiplayer... horrible.. unless they fix it.. not likely.

I had the same problem. Hit detection for headshots seems to be iffy (if 1-shot from a bolt-action sniper rifle isn't enough, then what is)?

somehow I feel that this was scripted, or he was very lucky. Looks great though, going to have to write the date down in my planner.

The differences between BF2 and BF:BC are becoming more murky.
They have the paddle revive in BC too... this looks like the unofficial BF3 :P - specially as it's also going to be on PC :)

hi there!
I got my beta key from gamespot.com!
They have about 65.000 beta keys... so if you need one you only have to register for free.
Happy fragging! :D

I got in late last night. After spawning, attempting to run in and fight 4 times, I got shot down without even seeing anything but desert, 4 times. I got frustrated and went to bed. Hopefully I'll have more luck today.

Yes.. beta has bugs But shot bugs shouldn't be an issue oh smart one considering there using an upgraded engine from BFBC. Nabs today /sigh

I wonder if this will have dedicated servers, so that I actually have a reason to buy it? I've pretty much stuck with CoD: UO solely because I play online for the community I go to, not the game itself necessarily (though UO is fun, even I'm getting worn thin on WWII). MW2 earned itself a no-sale and a instant boycott of all Activision/Blizzard/IW titles from me for screwing the online play to hell.
EA did things right with DA, do things right here. Give us real MP. Not laggy, host-cheating garbage.

I heard this is going to be better than modern warefare2 multiplayer, well does it have split screen that you can play with friends at home, not everyone plays online, at least modern warefare has all that, and that makes it a great multiplayer game that inlcudes every kind of gamer. Anyway I cant wait to play it anyway, it looks great.Dave
