Dunno, it seems that rush games are just going faster and faster every day, the attackers just get better and faster at rolling through the defense and mcoms it seems on PC.
It has bug fixes and some lighting changes on a couple of maps i think.Pandoracell said:Thanks guys.
Oh, and what was that 200+MB optional update on 360 about? A quick search seemed to turn up that, at the moment, it does nothing?

I started to enjoy the game less when my rank rose towards 30. I had the feeling that my skill wasn't represented by my rank. I still think games are less relaxed than they were when I had a lower rank. But my skill has risen so that I can enjoy it a bit more.

I'm starting to get really frustrated that DICE/EA still hasn't fixed the screengrab feature yet on the BC2 website.

Mr. Snrub said:
Isn't that exactly what Onslaught is? Each level gets progressively harder with the AI getting vehicles in the later levels? I thought it was like that anyway.

Just dug up that Onslaught gameplay interview vid on youtube, it's kinda like a single m-com rush vs. AI. You advance from your base and capture objectives along the way.
edit: there's a timer counting UP in the lower left corner. And despite what the guy from DICE says, it tracks time down to 1/10th of a second (it's right on the screen).

Same here, stuck at work. I might wait for some impressions before buying.
Pixelenemy has some E3 footage of Onslaught up (allll sniper action)
edit: I'm wondering what the minimum number of players to start an Onslaught match is. 2? 4? The guys time is past 15 minutes in the e3 vid, people are gonna be farming points like crazy if there's no limit.
Maybe i can get the rest of my d 2.0 kills???
The only thing I care about is the ability to steal a helicopter and infinitely destroy a pool of AI defenders without a time or ticket limit. I'd rather have the comp stomp dropped in my lap, but if I have to work for it slightly so be it. Don't care at all about the high-score leaderboards and frankly I'd assume most of the guys who would are the same ones who've been chopper raping on Atacama since day one.

Once I hit 22 I really stopped caring as much as I already had all my pins. I also got 1000/1000 achievements. Now I'm playing to get my SPECACT weapon achievements and I'm 3/4 on them. Just need 40 more kills with the Sniper rifle and I can do that in one night playing defense Rush on hardcore.
Oh, and I'll wait for impressions for Onslaught. My friends stopped playing this game so I want to see how it is going Lone Wolf style first.

No, but a minority of gamers have been known to enjoy just playing the game.

Looks like 360 won't even be getting it today anyway.

Looks like EA made a timed-exclusivity deal with Sony for some stuff and also some other exclusivity deal when we think about other PS3 exclusive things too (MoH beta delay on 360, Dead Space 2 with Extinction and MoH with MoH: Frontline HD)

it's probably just incompetence. why wouldn't they tout an exclusive deal like Activision/MS? if it actually was an exclusive and they just didn't say so, it just makes makes them look incompetent, which is almost as bad as the alternative.valentine71 said:
Played some Conquest matches with Olimpia84 and we had 0 lag.
Looks like the server side mainteinance helped a little bit
Onslaught Mode Impressions:
- No lag if youre host
- No lag if you are not host but you may see some weird hit detection. (Nothing crazy)
- I played on Normal difficulty and it was a good challenge... so hardcore must be a beast.
- Loooots of stuff explosions and bullets flying all over the place.
- It seems to be crazy fun with a full GAF squad.
- You can play it all by yourself.

But how is the quality of playing with other folks not on your friend's list? I know it will depend but just a general idea. Plus, where are the new achievements/trophies?
