Battlefield: Bad Company demo dated

yeah and in regards to the screen tearing, someone hear on GAF had a dialog from some associated with DICE and said the screen tearing shouldn't be an issue in the final build

oh and based on the gameplay vids posted on Gametrailers, lets all thank DICE again for making L1/R1 aim and shoot :D
Yeah, I saw that. In the footage from the 360, you can see it says RT to heal yourself. And we all know RT on 360 controllers is for shooting. Towards the end of the video, you can see it says R1 to heal. So logic says R1 will be for shooting. Yes, I notice these little things :( ......
 
I was just wondering... there's no standard online modes like Team Deathmatch? Just Gold Rush and Conquest? Why?

Write them an e-mail. I'm serious about this. This game wasn't even supposed to feature Conquest or parachutes until people complained about it :D

I'm stunned that there's only two modes. It just doesn't make any sense for a series that's known for its multi-player. How can there not be a simple mode like Team Deathmatch? Just wow. This demo better be amazing.

This drove me nuts. And they even increased the clip size of most of the weapons. I'm not an expert or anything, but 60 rounds for an MP5 and 50 rounds for the M8(?) was crazy. You think that would have been a hint for them that things are a little off. When you're noticing it's tough to kill someone with one clip of ammunition, I think the reaction should be raise damage/lower health, not add more bullets.

Oh my god and the squad stuff. Ugh, I'm gonna stop now I could go on too long.

I guess I'll be skipping this one. I can't stand have multiple magazines worth of ammo hit a target and still have them be alive; I don't play Halo's or Gears' multiplayer for the same reason.

im this was posted somewhere, but this was the first bad company thread after lke 12 pages


http://www.xbox360achievements.org/achievements.php?gameID=439

the achievements are out

there are parachutes :)

10002 kills haha
That's odd, in an XCN interview someone from DICE said that the parachute wouldn't be in Bad Company:

Karl-Magnus Troedsson said:
Why did you decide to remove parachute from the multiplayer mode?

The decision to remove the parachute was made for a couple of reasons. One of them was to lower the amount of Attackers landing behind enemy lines and creating an unbalanced situation for the Defenders. Another reason was to avoid having people bail out of a critical helicopter to avoid death which can be very frustrating to the gamer shooting it down.
 
can i has demo?!?!

some stupid crappy wepsite i have never heard of is saying you have to post 25 times on their forum to get it :lol

I want mah code?!
 
I have 1 360 Demo code to give away
Answer this question and the first one to get it right gets the code

I think it was March 25th.
 
I seem to have won a code from that Gamersyde giveaway. I would've passed some up but it's one per person. Anyone else win a code from that event?
 
Wow I'm really impressed with how much they've improved over the beta. First and foremost the controls are so much more responsive and fluid. The animations are also improved from what I remember. The weapons seem to pack more of a punch as well. Also lots of little things like not taking tons of damage for one story falls and lots of small differences in the ui and look of things. I still don't care for the big iron sights but it's doable.

Good job DICE I think I'll buy this one.
 
I am excited to try this. I didn't think the beta was that great, but considering the Battlefield series is my favorite multiplayer series, I won't give up so easily. I don't have the game preordered so I don't have the code. I really hate when a demo is up on the server, yet they block us because it isn't preordered.
 
anyone that has the ps3 demo want to share with some of us who don't got it? i pre-ordered at eb games and called but they have no clue what i'm talking about. my local eb is so frustrating sometimes.
 
I'm just throwing my hat out there, if anyone has a Xbox 360 demo code and is willing to part with it, I'm more than willing to accept :D This demo is a make or break for my purchase.
 
yeah I must say the Beta was a mess but having now played the demo this has turned into something special the tech is pretty amazing - blow holes into the ground destroy buildings and trees very smooth frame rate. Also played a 10 vs 10 multiplayer game hardly any lag or frame rate problems.

The only shame is that the single player should have been 4 player co-op

definitely picking this up..
 
Is there conquest in the demo or is it just Gold Rush?

The beta was mediocre but I'm interested to see how the demo turns out...

when you load up the multi-player you get a message telling you that Conquest will be added via auto update after the game is released so yes for demo its just Gold Rush. I know the beta had so many problems but this really good now oh and the screen tearing appears all but gone (running at 720p haven't tried 1080p yet)
 
Wow, i've been watching some vid's, and this looks so much better than the beta. If anyone has a code for either console, I'd really appreciate the generosity. :D

Where are you guys getting codes from? I've had this game pre-ordered forever.

I won mine from Gamersyde using this

:lol
 
why are they giving codes to websites and not people who pre ordered? ridiculous...

any other sites have any left?

that seems kinda pointless to have an early demo..for people who were sitting on gaming websites all day?

they arent working
they now get to play a game early

how much MORE good stuff do they need :lol
 
I preorded as well, I'm hoping a code finds its way to me! Will stopping by Gamestop do anything for me? Are they handing out codes as people preorder?

I thought the entire idea was for people that preordered to have early access, is this not the case?
