Why Battlefield 2 just made my MUST BUY List

Post by Mr Bean »

Three reason

First, How Pretty and shinny everythings is

Second, The fact they have thrown in the "little" things(IE Soliders now have random extra personal objects they carry and each tank is slightly diffrent from each other as far as extra crew equipment on the outside)


Third... This Video

What is an R-73 doing about to slam into a Blackhawk? Are there Su-27s or MiG-29s in this game or something? I mean, I've seen the T-90 tanks that one size has, but who the hell is the other side supposed to be?

Its not a 'real life' simulation, as far as I know, but set in a 'fictional' mid east country.

I can't download stuff from Fileplanet at school; is that a homing missile, or just player guided?

Some details like both the mid-east and China, a "battlefield TV", and alot more details on how they plan to shrink the maps and all.

Swedes, be proud of Stockholm!

EDIT: damn nice gameplay, that picture of the missle? it passed straight through.

The Chinese Army has the most modern weapons, some of which are currently in a prototype phase.
Ugh.
GS: What can you tell us about the two new character classes--the heavy weapons support class and the Special Forces class--and how will they differ from existing classes?
