BC2 - great game! But... what would you change?

I don't mean fixing broken features, like the ping indicator or something. But if the game worked as intended, what would you like to see different anyway? For me:

-when you are shot, the red direction indicator keeps updating as you move. This makes it too easy to find who shot you. I think one blink is sufficient, like was done in BF2.

-not sure if it is possible, but I thought it would be cool to be able to put a picture of your (or anyone's) face on the players. I've seen this done in some console games, and it would be pretty funny.

-being able to continually chat - ESPECIALY after you are knocked out. These are when people have high emotions and want to say something, and are doing nothing waiting for another spawn. When you spawn, you often don't have time to chat without getting knocked out again.

-prone for me, or at least locking the crouch position, as my fingers get sore. But I can understand some may not like this.

-Get rid of the night map, as it is hard to see, and hurts my eyes. A lot of people apparently are messing around with their brightness/contrast settings to play that one.

-Allow the browser to put a wait order on a server when it is full, so you can auto login, rather than have to click repeatedly for unknown time.

-just to add to the chat thing. Apparently a statement was released saying it was on purpose for the "dead men can't talk" thing: rubbish. Communication is fun and both teams can use it. Causing pain and frustration (like the prone key) is not "realistic", it just makes it less fun and more frustrating.


Anyway, like I said, nice game. A LOT of improvements and thought went into it from something like BF2. I was just thinking of this the other day. From being able to pick up advanced kits, to the very addictive points/rewards system - very well done.

A squad leader would be nice. He could kick and invite people to his squad... kinda like it used to be.

Nothing more annoying than having some sniper in some awkward place or some jackass waiting for the UAV to pop up in your squad.

1. Squad Leader.
2. Text Radio Commands Given + Icons on the screens of those who are asked.
--Example: Person 1 selects Q on tank for a ride. Person 2 (In tank), gets an icon on the bottom right that says someone is requesting a pickup and Person 1's icon blinks on the map.

Crouch toggle

I have crouch set to ctrl and my pinky gets numb after a while.

A lot of the stuff I can deal with but physical pain makes me not want to play.

Get yourself a Nostromo N52. I use a macro to toggle crouch on/off. I also use a thumb mouse button for quick popping-up and down.

I've looked at them but they just seem too expensive for what they do.

See if you can find a new original N52 on eBay. The newer one's are over-priced but I got a second N52 before they replaced it with the N52te for less than $20. I can't go back to a keyboard anymore.

So far I like it, a lot, I didn't realize that I had missed such à-la BF2 games that much, but I do like big maps with lots of vehicle warfare, and more players too, I think that BF2, or even BF 1942 are still better at that so far, but for what BC2 is I cannot complain, it serve its purpose, it's more "up-close", more compressed, overall the maps are smaller, the number of players (32 maximum I believe) is within standards, it's nothing negative at all, but I would like to jump in some more grand-scale warfare at times and still have the option to battle in smaller maps with fewer players and not too many vehicles, those are fun too, so in other words perhaps a mix of everything would have been better overall, but it's ok, I do really like BC2 so far, I'm surprised to be honest.

No prone and no claymores make this a better game imo

I'd change the balance of the guns - if you look at the stats there's basically one *best* gun for most classes (e.g. M60 for medic, XM8 for assault). COD :MW did a better job of making more of the guns useful for different play styles.

God please do not add the ability to prone.

The only changes I would make is make the spotting like it was in BF2 and limit the number of snipers on each team.

I wouldn't mind the ability to have voice across both teams, only teams, or only squads. Something I miss from other FPS games where it made it feel more like a group of guys just sitting down to play, instead of a tactical mission everytime.

You if you can find a server that also offers Vent/TS. Totally adds a new dimension to the game.

Make structure damage 'more' dynamic. i.e make a hole in the wall instead of just remove it.

Better staging of damage to structures and more defensive armor/structure to emplaced weapons.

Remove the following weapons:

all sniper rifles

Limit jumping to once per 10 seconds

Limit mortars to 2 strikes per life

Also:

Add a feature that castrates players who purposely unbalance teams

Add a feature that doesn't let 12 year olds play

Hahaha, I laughed out loud at some comments! Especially Caveman, you sound like you miss BF2... like me! And yes, no rosary is kind of weird. I always want to say "thank you" when someone helps me, but can't! I feel kind of... selfish?

They should basically add all the stuff that didn't make it over from BF2. At the very least 64 players and the original class structure. One thing I dont miss from BF2 was the support guys jumping up then going prone to shoot. Leave that in the past.

Yes, I miss BF2. It was epic. I just wished some of the good features in BF2 made it over to BC2. Even the crappy server browser in BF2 was better than this one.

LOL, I was in the same situation the other night when someone gave me ammo. I couldn't say thank you.
