My VIP code does not work, does anyone know how to fix this?

FYI I purchased the game new.
What does it say?

on PS3? do the secondary weapons count?

Yes. Pistols, count. Shotguns count. Main weapons count.

AFAIK. I bronzed all of those when the M1 was bugged so after getting the bronze for the M1, I had that + all bronze stars light up.

It says this code is not valid or is already in use. Which is BS because I got the game new.

I guess just call EA customer service?

what the fuck is up with the knife, every time it just swings instead of stabs. >_<

It's been doing that a lot to me too. I tried to knife someone today and it just swung, so I was like fuck it and just shot them. Ended up being someone I really wanted to knife too :|

for the veteran trophies, its basically the same as the conquered trophies except you have to be on hardcore difficulty.
I always thought the name of the stage was Valparaiso, and not Valpariso.:lol

Wow, going from Bad Company 2 Lagville to Bad Company 1 no-Lag is really jarring. What the hell servers are BC1 on that BC2 can't be on?

Wait people are still in BC 1? I might pick it up for shits & giggles.

There's still players. Maybe not full servers, but I'm able to play.

Wait, what? My awesome death dude stuck in the air when his car disappeared and he died in it photo/grab isn't saved?

Son of a bitch, that's from launch. :|
As far as I can tell, they still haven't fixed the website so we can't see those images.

I may be wrong, though.
 
I want to love this game so much, but everytime I try to play it, I feel like I am disconnected from my avatar. The controls feel very unresponsive at times. It's almost like I am watching someone play the game rather than feeling like I am in full control at all times. In Modern Warfare, I can easily maneuver exactly the way I intend to, but in BF2 I just have to hope I am able to do what I have in mind. Not saying that MW is better...but the feel of the game and the controls certianly are, at least in my opinion. Despite this issue I have with the feel of the game, I am still able to have a fair amount of fun, which is a testament to the overall quality of the game.

I tried several different games. I was having terrible lag tonight. I don't often quit cause of the lag, but I had to tonight. There was nothing to enjoy.

What did they do to have such a dramatically different performance from one night to the next?
 
You know your team is bad when... you join the game after they take the first set of mcoms then lose at the last second on the 2nd set and you're the top player of the game.

The internet porn server crashed. But, don't worry, it's back up and running now so your battlefield games can return to their former lag-infested state.

Can someone explain this:

I successfully entered my VIP code, and I got the maps, but aren't I supposed to get some weapons? My friends say I should have the tracer dart gun, do I need to do something else?

Hold on, I'm still staring at your avatar.

Okay, I think I can fo--

Yea, do you have regular or special edition? Regular gives you a VIP code, but it doesn't unlock anything off the bat like the special edition does.

yeah that's one lucky strawberry.

Anyways I guess I have the regular VIP code. I guess I'm a sub-VIP
 
It's not that hard to unlock stuff anyways. I didn't get around to the 2nd play today for BFBC2. I started to replay Demon Souls again. I am currently remaking my luck build and on top of that I'm making a dex build.

If you guys are playing BFBC2 while I'm playing Demon Souls just message me.

Anyway, I'm at 71% headshot accuracy with the m95 SPECTAT, almost have my 100 kills with it... and I just realized I'm wasting the magnum perk! sheesh!

Played a couple of quick matches this morning and on Port Valdez had a whole squad camped out on the huge crane in the back left corner of the second to last set of m-coms. Musta dropped in from the heli. Got killed by the sniper of their team, respawned and then popped a grenade up there.

& WOO HOOO! Got 1 more destruction 2.0 kill, I brought down the barn on Laguna Alta with a mortar strike to get him. That puts me at a grand total of 5. YES! :/

I need to get 4 more kills with the M16A2 specact to get my 4th gold star with it. I need the points anyway. Hit lvl 40 yesterday and now I need 240k points for the next level :|

And again, I'm still wondering how people can't get destruction 2.0 kills... I have at least 30 or more by now.

Hell, I got two by accident the other day when I mortared a tower on isla. I figured it'd just outright kill the dude, not collapse the tower and kill him that.

*shrug*

I'm going to a going away party today and hanging out with some friends, so I might be on later. Might not. We'll see.

just played a few rounds of BC1 and damn, the Shotgun was so much more reliable and predictable in that game.

what happened DICE?!


Unless you're using the Neostead/NS2000, no, no it isn't. SPAS-12 is just as hit/miss in hit detection as it is in BC2. :|

no way man, all the pump shotguns in BC1 are pretty much the same as far as shooting people goes. i've never had any BC2-like hit detection problems in BC1 with the SPAS12, 870 or T194.

Was using the UAV on white pass, got 6 kills then spotted a sniper making his way to the uav station. Bailed on the station, turn to attack the sniper and the uav falls on his head :lol

I have. That uphill battle/castle rush map I'm forgetting the name of. First set. I've had a dude pointblank in my sights/cross-hair and use the SPAS-12. BLAM!

(Nothing happens, they turn around, fire their assault rifle at me)

I die.

yeah, Ascension is a good map to use Demolitions, lots of shooting people in the face! i dunno man, i never had that problem in BC1 with any of the pump shotguns and in BC2 it's just so apparent with all of them.

man, the Killcam would ruin some of my hiding spots on some BC1 maps.

Edit: Ascension with D2.0 would be cccrrraaazzzyyy!!!

If anyone on the PS3 can handle playing with a noob, my PSN name in noiretoile.

Just worked through a bunch of backlog (BC2 SP, GoW3, Darksiders) so now I'm going to hit MP.
