Here are a few basic multiplayer tips that can help you from getting slaughtered on the battlefield.

This article may seem a bit ironic considering I just vented my heart out against Battlefield Bad Company 2 (BFBC2) earlier on in the week but there’s no denying the fact that once you get past the many, MANY screw ups, there is a robust class-based multiplayer game waiting for you. As with any game of that magnitude comes a pretty steep learning curve. This is pretty much the case with most Battlefield games where the usual run and gun style of gameplay won’t work too well for you. If you find yourself getting owned mercilessly here are a few basic tips that could turn the tides in your favor. Make sure you’re part of a squad BFBC2 is all about team work so you can’t just go around racking up kills lone wolf style like you would in Modern Warfare 2. You have to work together as a team which also means communicating with your team so make sure you have a mic. Spot Spotting enemies (Q by default on the PC version) brings them up temporarily on your mini map via a triangle icon by which not only your squad but your entire team gets to see their position. I can’t stress the importance of spotting in a game like BFBC2 where at times you really don’t know where you’re being shot from. Start off as a medic BFBC2 can be a brutal to newcomers and dying over and over again just isn’t fun. What you need to do is start off as a medic since that is pretty much the easiest class to get the hang of. Initially you won’t be able to revive your comrades but once you unlock the defibrillator you’ll be racking up points like there’s no tomorrow. The Recon Class should not be confused with the Assault Class The Recon class in BFBC2 is the closest you’ll get to being stealthy especially since you can blend into the shrubbery courtesy of their ghillie suit. Use your sniper rifles to spot enemies from a distance and don’t go running into the battlefield armed with nothing but your pistol. You will die really fast. Gravity plays a big factor in the game Unlike certain games where bullets travel in a straight line for miles on end the bullets in BFBC2 are governed by gravity. This isn’t much of a problem during close quarter combat but make sure you keep that in mind while sniping or gunning for distant targets. Structures don’t last forever In BFBC2 pretty much every structure barring a few is destructible so don’t think taking cover behind that concrete wall will save your life. One well aimed shot from a tank or a rocket is all it takes to blast down the wall - and your face. Add in a few more shots and an entire structure can get leveled in minutes so make sure you’re always on the move. |
