I don't agree. BC1 was a great single player game but the online was not balanced properly. I would shoot them with a grenade launcher right at their feet and even after the explosion, they just turned around and would shoot me in the face.

BC2 offered Hardcore mode which is perfect and the only way I play BC2. So perfect that I am a bit upset that they have changed the classes around and their responsibilities. Having each class specialize in something that helps the team was perfect in BC2.

I was extremely disappointed in the online with BC1 that I stopped playing online in less than a month. hardcore mode is essential and it wasn't in BC1.

Agreed +bubbles
First time ever that I see somebody that liked BF:BC1>BF:BC2..
Just like me :)

I enjoyed more the BF:BC1 maps over the ones in BF:BC2(nothing wrong with them though). BF:BC1 wasn't perfect but I had lots of fun and no other [multiplatform] game have kept me coming for more this gen like BF:BC1 did.

Ps: the second multiplatform would be BF:1943 and then BF:BC2 :D

I enjoyed BC a lot before BC2 came out, but a few days ago me and my buddy went back and played a couple of rounds of rush and boy is it unpolished and clunky compared to BC2. The movement is incredibly slow in that game and it just has some general design issues like having to hold the stick down constantly to run and the helicopter controls in multiplayer being retarded compared to the single player controls.

Although there were some things that were better, like the vegetation in the map being much more dense and lush and some of the maps are classics!

And THAT right there, worries me.. more than all the sniper bs everyone been talking about

Yes, I'm a sniper/sub-machinegun type of guy xD

It's like someone calling you a monkey. You are similar, you serve a similar purpose but you are still not a monkey. If you expect to be taken seriously in an given area, proper terminology is essential. It's just another reason why "gaming journalism" is completely worthless.
