BFBC2 - Officially the shittest MP game I have ever played

Ok I can't help but rant over this game.

I am going to try and be calm and collected about my rant and try not offend any fan bois.

But honestly people this is the biggest load of shit excuse for a game if there ever was one.

Graphics great, sound great, controls great, single played great, MP hit detection USELESS!!!!!!

The final straw for me was when I fired 2 rockets into a container where ther were 2 guys sniping, neither rockets registered, wow what a surprise, so I tossed a nade, wow yet again NOTHING happens, so then I start shooting at them, I CLEARLY have my cross hair on the one guy, fire a few rounds NOTHING happens and then he shoots me one shot and I am dead.

Honestly now people, I play MW2 and when I shoot at a guy he dies, if he shoots faster than me, I die, thats the way it works. It seems BC2 is selective on what shots kill and what dont.

This is officially this shittest MP game I have ever played.


EDIT: Firstly, this is a rant, not a direct attack on either you, your mom, your dog or your granny, so just chill out. Please leave your sarcastic flaming comments at the door. I you wish to be a chop and flame, be prepared.

On topic - after a few weeks of playing and giving BC2 a chance I have to say I have changed my view on the game, to a point of course. I generally play on Hardcore servers as was advised and find it a lot more fun. I still find the odd hit detection issue, but not like I did in the beginning. All in all I have a lot more respect for the game than I did at time of posting this thread. I am glad I pursued and got into it a bit more.

You forgot to mention after the last update the game has also been lagging badly on a 2core system again. . .
Can't believe they have not fixed the hit detection after the 4th update.
 
taste differs hey

if anyone wants to rant on this. go fly because once again

taste differs from person to person
 
I for one have had no problem with the hit detection. And still enjoy it. I guess it is just bad luck.

Sorry this has fuck all to do with taste, this has to do with a poorly made game.

I have been playing FPS MP games all my life and never have I seen such a load of bollocks in my life.

Bad luck is when I run into a nade and die unexpectedly or perhaps when I am not fast enough and get owned by a another player, all good I can deal with it, I am not a sore looser by any means.

But when you are standing 10M away from a guy totally unawares and you rocket him, nade him, shoot at him, and then he still casually turns around and kills you with 1 shot, I call BS, I am by no means a noob at FPS games, ask anyone on this forum who has played with me. This game is poor.
 
heh. fanboy rant. someone tries to maintain objectivity and you go off the deep end...

Lol I did not mean to sound like I am defending the game lol. I know if that kinda stuff happened to me I would also just stop playing. I really have had no problem like that at all with the hit detection. But I must mention one thing after the new patch they have screwed up the stabbing as I can't stab anything. I am how ever getting bored of the title.
 
Spoon have you played any of the other BF game? I also found it hard to adjust from years of COD4/MW2, its weird how one gets used to a certain style of a game, give it more time you will adapt and learn.
 
What really basically made me stop is 2 reasons. No wait 3 reasons.

1. If i shoot your friends in the ass and you decide to squad spawn at that exact time then you casually turn around and shoot me as none of my bullets will register.
2. Servers which has 0 control on them. ffs there is more control on MW2 public servers. Guys these guys are camping and tubing lets start a new lobby, oky cool lets go. On BFBC2 if i complain about 2 guys in my team standing in our spawn and teamkilling us for 30min because they think its funny i get called a noob and i should go moan somewhere else. 18 vs 8 because there is once again no control on the servers and we get spawn raped and its so hilarious apparently.
3. But by far the biggest is, the absolute amount of camping in this game. Its fine and dandy you can do whatever you want but a 16 player team is not suppose to have 13 snipers.

PS. i havent played for a while so excuse me if things have changed.

With rush there is nor real camping. I don't play conquest as that game mode seems to attract the elitist group of people and they are no fun to play with. Rush is a nice game mode and I rarely don't enjoy myself.
 
I'm sorry but the hit detection has never bothered me in this game. Perhaps you're taking it all a bit too seriously? I just got my busted 8800GT replaced with a 5770 and the game is even more of a joy to play now. After playing BC2 I just can't stand the sterility and lack of "feel" of MW2, but that's just me.

I have to agree with you there. The only 2 probs I have with the game are:
1 The knifing needs to be fixed
2 I want more maps. The old ones are getting abit boring.
 
I must admit that I've been avoiding BFBC2 simply due to the atrocious hit detection. It's just no fun knifing a sniper 3 times, without him dying or noticing you, and then *pop* he turns around to headshot you.

This game makes me rage quite a bit ... so many imperfections that it's hard to play: always one noob who's permanently in a tank; always one noob permanently spawn camping with a grenade launcher; always one noob permanently teamkilling you; always one noob who permanently snipes.

Meh.

I all but gave up on BFBC2 when I found out that aiming down ironsights actually makes you less accurate. Can you believe that!!?!? I played a round as Engineer and aimed down the ironsights at an enemy. Fired short controlled bursts, more than half the clip, registering every hit. The guy notices, turns around and takes me out. This went on for half a round. was sitting on 10 deaths 2 kills. Decided fuck it. Lets try not using ironsights.......... was dropping guys halfway across the map with single bursts.

So believe me when I tell you, I hear you Grimmy. :) BUT........ I've only got two words for you.............. HARDCORE........... SERVERS.............

Hardcore servers saved this game for me. No more emptying half a clip into someone and getting killed on shot. No more getting raped by armour/choppers. More skill..... less blind luck. The hit detection is still sucky, but in hardcore servers it doesn't matter so much. The game actually becomes fun.

I've been playing Battlefield games since 2003 and I can tell you BF1942 and even BF Vietnam had better hit detection than BF2 and BFBC2 put together. Ever since Dice got their hands on it hit detection has taken a backseat. Which is sad really since that's the only thing they really need to fix to make it a trully fantastic game.

Which reminds me, I have to give it a try again since I haven't played BFBC2 in more than a month........

I have to honest and say I haven't, I played BF2 but not for very long. It still doesn't make sense to me, a head shot is a head shot, weather it is BF or COD.

I must admit that I've been avoiding BFBC2 simply due to the atrocious hit detection. It's just no fun knifing a sniper 3 times, without him dying or noticing you, and then *pop* he turns around to headshot you.

Meh.

+1 I have no words for the anger I feel towards this game at the moment.
 
one more thing spoon. BC2 has a bullet drop effect. so for head shots at range you need to aim a bit above. other wise it will register as a body shot.

So in real live I must aim just above the robbers head to get a head shot? :p

PS: I am not going to bother to reply to your snotty PM as I don't feel like a PM spat.

o and PS: I am not trying to convince ANYONE that this game is crap, people can make up their own minds, they not sheep ;)
