Battlefield Bad Company 2 V4 - Helicopter Camping Mini Game Confirmed

[Makol]

I just finished in stalling BC2 on my MacBook... It runs at 20 to 25fps will all setting on low and at 1024x768 since that seems to be the lowest resolution. I'm not going to say it was playable but it was enjoyable. I was able to play two full matches of Squad Rush before it crashed to desktop. I'm going to have to stick with Battlefield 2 and Battlefield 2142 for my Battlefield games for on the go.

Did anyone get their Dr. Pepper Codes to work?

[QUOTE=Kalshnutz;20520122]Yes, as usually, we Europeans get the game a few days after them NA's.[/QUOTE]

Goddamnit.....

Oh fun, my download slowed to a crawl and froze.

I [I]love[/I] downloading things from Steam, it's so simple and easy and reliable.

[Linµx]

Hooray! Came home from work to discover that it was up for preload (UK).

Too bad I'll be working when it unlocks on Friday :smith:

[postmanX3]

And guess what? The good ol' "Steam has stopped responding" message popped up right as I typed that.

So great.

Guess what? We don't give a fuck!

[Tippmann357]

I emailed EA a few days ago about the BF Veterans program not working with my keys and the guy asked me for my EA login info and all my keys and shit still hasn't been resolved.

My 1942+expansions and 2142 login won't work so I'm still stuck at 0 even if I have BF2 and its expansions.

Fucking hurry up EA and hurry up download

dude how about instead of saying you don't give a fuck you show it by NOT REPLYING

[sottaly]

Am I supposed to use the promo key or the regular key for BC2? Trying with the promo doesn't work and I'm afraid if I use the reg I won't get my 5 items from early preorder.

[Linµx]

Can anyone confirm that;

1. It only takes 1 Veteran point to unlock the M1 Garand

2. That Bad Company 2 itself counts as half a point?

[T2L_Goose]

Promo Key is for the VIP status when you go to get your DLC map-pack.

Oh, alright. Thanks for clearing that up.

[QUOTE=CommanderPT;20513729]And BC2 doesn't use VAC, I repeat, it does not use VAC. So.. he will be perfectly fine playing BC2 with that account.[/QUOTE]

How long does it take for a reply from steam support to get to me? :raise:

It only takes ONE point to unlock the garand, and Right now you can't register BC2 itself, so you'll have to use two other BF games, But once you can, Yes, it will count as Half of a point, it takes two BF Games to make you a Vet Rank 1

Excellent. When they do make it that you can register BC2 then everyone that owns the game will get it, seeing as how BF: Heroes is free

[TheTalon]

Possibly, The Garand isn't an End all solution though, You can't fit attachments to it, and in Hard Core mode, while it's nice, the G3 will easily be a better choice over the Garand, and in regular play because of the higher Magazine count

[T2L_Goose]

It's still a good gun to start with.

[dass]

At least steam is awesome to download.
If only I had more then 50kb internet speed...

(I shit you not, I have a 56kb speed connection...)

[TheTalon]

Oh yeah, it's nice, It and the Thompson are complete beasts

[QUOTE=Sottalytober;20520764]Oh, alright. Thanks for clearing that up.[/QUOTE]

Don't hold me to it though. I just know that they said there would be a code for people who bought the game that gave you VIP access to DLC.

[TheTalon]

The Limited Edition has a VIP Code right on the booklet that gives you those 6 Unlocks from the start and access to the Free DLC.... which is dumb because if it's Free then what's the point but Eh, that's what the Menu said after entering the code on Xbox

Yeah I know, but I just want it for the novelty.

I will probably play a game or two with it and then never use it again.

Because future people that don't buy the LE will have to pay $15 for it in the VIP store. EA is all about the money.

[QUOTE=usaokay;20520920]The VIP thing isn't working for me ffs.[/QUOTE]

It's smart because the VIP key can only be used once, so if you buy the game second hand, you need to buy that DLC.
