| B Company
Welcome to the 222nd Army battalion, B-company. This is where the Army rakes together all the insubordinates, hellraisers and troublemakers that won’t fit in any other unit. When the Rangers and Deltas are too expensive to waste, these guys are the first ones in.
They’re called “Bad Company”; a mismatched bunch of rejects selected to serve their country as cannon fodder. This isn’t the kind of outfit a lot of soldiers would join voluntarily. Getting transferred to “the B” is a punishment and a way for the generals to put all their rotten eggs in one basket.
No one starts out in Bad Company. But for some, this is where they end up. |

Amazing and ridiculously fin multiplayer! |
|
I must say that the single player campaign was average, it was enjoyable. Consider the campaign a training mission series for multiplayer. The multiplayer game is off the charts good! Vehicles, mortars, airstrikes, artillary, helicopters, anti-air weapons, dozens upon dozens of weapons in massive battles on really enjoyable maps! Mostly everything in the game is destructible, if it grows, is built or is in the way you can usually find a way to blow it up or saw through it with a sub machine gun. I got a lot more than I expected from this game! |

Great Single Player |
|
I can't connect for multi-player, so I generally stick to games that have single player action. This game is refreshing with the comedic dialog from Haggard and Sweetwater as you progress through each level of battle. The overall action of the game is great as well as being able to do damage to structures now. |

Different than what I expected, but still fun |
|
I love COD4, and thought this would be somewhat like it, but I wasn't too disappointed to find it different, it is still a great game, maybe not COD4 great, but great nonetheless. Takes some getting used to, but once its there its fun. Fun to drive and shoot from the vehicles. |

Fantastic game for non-hardcore FPS Fans |
I am not a big fan of the FPS genre. I play them from time to time, but they always seem WAY too complicated to me, and they usually are not easy to sit down and then pick back up a month later. I hate complex systems where I have to remember all these special combos in order to play the game. That is NOT this game.
You can pickup this game in a few minutes. The controls and simple and well organized (unlike the controls in Army of TWO or RB6).
The graphics are amazing. Yes, there are glitches and places that you can't destroy everything. But the ability to blow a wall out of a building to get at the enemy behind it awesome and very satisfying.
The single player game is a movie cut scene driven system. It is well written for an FPS and keeps the player moving into the game very well. You unlock new weapons in the game by finding them on dead enemies for the most part.
The online gameplay is amazing. You start with a few weapons and unlock more through gameplay. Your character has some RP elements to it by being able to spend your unlock points on things you like to do. You can unlock sniper rifles if that is all you like to do for example rather than getting a new assault weapon.
Playing online has been a lot of fun for me. I don't normally like FPS online play (too many kids with foul mouths yelling all the time). But this has been a lot of fun to play and level your character. You gain ranks and medals through online play.
VEHICLES!
You can also drive and shoot a lot of vehicles. In particular I love the ability to jump on a tank someone else is driving and be their gunner. If they jump out you can then take over and drive as well. Helicopters are included as well (hard to fly, but cool).
FUN FUN FUN - Squad concept too
I have not had this much fun playing an FPS since the original Unreal series. The maps are huge and leave a lot of room to run around. You fight a series battles on each multiplayer map. You can also choose to spawn with your squad, or to go back to the base. This is a lot of fun when you have a good squad as you can look out for each other while playing. There is a system between matches where you can rate your play with each squad mate and then you are paired up with people you like when they are online. Makes it even more fun when you get to know people online and then play together with them.
Gold edition might not have been worth it, but for me I thought it was nice to get the extra weapons. |
