Forum Overview :: Battlefield: Bad Company 2 :: first impressions from someone who knows what they're talking about

[quote name="irony"]first off, it's unavoidable but I have to mention how terrible the performance is. I get 20 fps average with random freezes for no reason and the graphics are at rock bottom shitty levels and look ugly as a bag of fuck. frequently I will be creeping up to an enemy in an attempt to shotgun them to death only to have the game freeze and who the fuck knows what happens after it snaps out of it. despite that I am already into the groove, picking up almost immediately where I left off in bf2142 just totally dominating my team even if we lose and getting fuckloads of points as well as several unlocks. it's good to see that the gameplay is still very fine high quality and I won't need to make micropayments to get every new weapon. btw apparently the M1 can actually be unlocked if you register all your old bf games. however the beta doesn't seem to make this available yet, so the M1 rating will be pending until we find out if I can get the M1 garand upon release of the full game or if it requires bf1943 (which would mean an instant 0 out of 10)[/quote]
