Should pop up every time you enter the store, unless you turned it off.

Not to enter the code though, to buy one. It says in the store you can buy one from the list, but nothings there

Oh I was there, sir

But because I'm renting people said I shouldn't get one (:'(). I've had the game via GameFly since it came out and no plans to send it back. Have the 3 game plan and am struggling to use up all 3. Had just BC 2 for a couple of weeks and then took a chance on that Vancouver Olympics game. MIIISSTAAAAAKE

Yeah Nelson Bay seems to keep up a bizarrely large amount of the time. I don't mind it that much as a map, but it gets fairly repetitive.

new maps out tommorow one for rush and one for conquest

That Conquest variation in that desert town is gonna be chaos.

Hey kalyx how did that knife feel when I stuck it in your face? :rant:

Better than the clip I emptied on you I'm sure.

Just bought this. On the third mission of campaign, loving it so far. Because it's comical just makes me want to play it more than I wanted to play MW2's.

Gonna have to jump online sometime.

No interest in single player.

because theyre already on the disc

Campaign was pretty good but think the first one was slighty better. Still had plenty of humour in it, although I'm pretty sure Haggard was voice by someone different this time round. It worth a run through, only takes around 6-8 hours to do it.

Me and Extreme tore it up for a few games this morning. He's pretty versed already.

Finally getting the groove with Assault, loving that 'rough neck, expendable' rush of battle.

I CANNOT get my Veteran status working. Fucking stupid EA making it a website activation instead of through the game. And guess what - the website missed read my email and attached my EA account to my PS3 ID! WTF?!? I couldn't even recover my PS3 ID when I wanted to on a PS3 console, and EA manages to fish it out for no fucking reason. Gonna contact EA and see if they can attach my GT to my current Live ID. I have a feeling this will lead to further frustration...

Squad Rush is the best mode in the game. Not only is it super competitive and balanced, it reveals recon whores for the bicthes they are. No excuses in this mode! I'm 3 and 0 so far, and that's working with a random squad. Can't wait to dominate with my usual boys.

Damn right.

Gonna be on today in the afternoon (EST).

Getting tired of being on the squad doing all of the work. 100% of the time, no bullshit, the objective my squad isn't watching will be armed and destroyed first (barring structural demolishes, and even then we're usually on point).

Gonna start inviting like crazy to get as much of my guys in one team as possible, even if we don't end up on the same squad. Also, if ever there would be a Bad Company 3 (or if the proper Battlefield 3 sequel adopts the squad system), there should be a Squad Leader who's allowed to talk to another Squad Leader for some sense cohesion beyond the actual squad. I'd love to coordinate a larger scale tactic, or just ask what the Hell the other squads are doing. It would still keep the chat channels from being spammed or overloaded if it's just the leaders communicating.

Sorry for dropping, had some business.

That 4x sniper scope makes me feel like fuckin Superman.

Pass. Paying for skins, in an FPS where you rarely get to see yourself, is not my cup of tea.

Universal Dr. Pepper codes (Here is how for BC2 & all other EA titles, not just ME2)
<hr style="color: rgb(55, 59, 50); background-color: rgb(55, 59, 50);" size="1"> <!-- / icon and title --> <!-- message --> I am copying and pasting what someone posted on 360achievements.org, user Thelorn. They got it from someone else too as stated in the rest of the post. I have edited it slightly to make more sense.

Here is the link to the Dr. Pepper promo page http://www.drpepper.com/promotions/ea/

The 4 universal codes are as follows.
CBEEAAA41NWH
CBEEAAAE4L9N
CBEEAAAFQG9J
CBEEAAAE98ZV

Now, You can use the codes for BC2
You will need to make 4 different Dr.Pepper accounts.
Try using Internet Explorer as trouble has been reported with firefox and chrome.

1. Create a new Dr.Pepper account
2. Enter the Universal Code
3. Right click the claim now button (for the Mass Effect Prize) and click copy link
4. Put link into your browser address bar
5. Change the =4 at the end of the bar to =3. (if it's already a =3 change to =4)
6. Hit enter
7. Claim whatever prize you want
8. Repeat 1-8 until desired amount of prizes.

I DO NOT take credit for this find. Credit is due to poster Oreopatch from the following Bad Company 2 Official forum. http://forum.ea.com/eaforum/posts/list/505226.page


I have not done this though I am in the process of doing so right now but 20+ others have confirmed this method to work. I know this should be tagged onto the Dr. Pepper thread, but I figure more people should know!

**Edit: I have done it and can confirm that this method works.

****Edit 2: The prizes for BC2 are currently for the 360 only. It is unknown whether or not redeeming now will still unlock it for your PS3 account tied to your EA profile.

yup thats what i did no use in wasting money for skins

also the new achievments arent working have to wait till they fix them

Me, Ermax and a bud of his (and now mine) were fucking tearing it up yesterday. Epic wins, but the last game went to the other team, strictly because we were preoccupied while the last objective was armed. If you want something done right...

Pussy/Awesome

Battlefield: BC2 console update coming May 11

by Griffin McElroy http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.en...writer_rss.gif { May 7th 2010 at 10:58AM } http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.jo...001xbox001.png http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.jo...station001.png
<!-- sphereit start --> Recons! Medics! Assaults! Lend us your Engineers! If you're still adhering to your nightly routine of playing Battlefield: Bad Company 2 until your eyes refuse to stay open any longer, you'll be pleased to hear about some upcoming changes coming to console versions of the game. Unless, of course, you actually like the game's unkillable, super overpowered deathcopters. In that case, you're about to be sorely disappointed.

Changes coming in the update -- due out May 11 via Xbox Live and PSN -- include a few balance tweaks of most weapons, a slight nerfing of the attack helicopter and an increase in the velocity of tracer darts, making it easier to stick 'em to that aforementioned helicopter. Joy!

Check out the full list of changes after the jump.
Battlefield: Bad Company 2 update changelog:

• Increased the base range of all Automatic and Semiautomatic weapons for more consistent close range combat.
• Slightly increased the damage of Semiautomatic rifles over long range for more consistent damage output.
• Increased the zoomed burst accuracy of LMGs and decreased LMG accuracy when moving to reduce LMG run and gun.
• Decreased the base damage of the M60 and XM8 LMGs to bring them in line with the other LMG damage values.
• Decreased the damage of the PKM over long range to balance it with other LMGs.
• Increased the base damage of the Type88 LMG to balance it with other LMGs.
• Slightly reduced the base damage of the M16 and G3 to balance the increased range.
• Slightly increased the damage of the AEK971, F2000, AN94, and AUG over long range to balance them with other Assault Rifles.
• Reduced the lethal blast range of the 40mm grenade and M2CG to highlight their role as a secondary weapon against infantry.
• Slightly Reduced the max range of the 40mm shotgun to balance it with other shotguns.
• Slightly increased the base damage of shotgun rounds and reduced their range to clarify ideal shotgun combat distance.
• Reduced the base damage of the PP2000 to balance the increased range.
• Increased the damage of the 9A91 over long range to balance its lower magazine size.
• Increased the damage and range of the M9, M93 pistols to make them more desirable as a secondary weapon.
• Increased the range of the MP443 pistol to make it more desirable as a secondary weapon.
• Increased the damage of the MP412 over long range to balance its low rate of fire.
• Slightly reduced the rate of fire of the M1911 pistol to balance it with other pistols.

• Increased the maximum number of Motion Sensors that can be carried from 2 to 3 and increased the speed which new sensors are acquired from ammo boxes.
• Significantly increased the speed of the Tracer Dart projectile to make it more effective against airborne targets.
• Increased the reload time of the Mortar Strike and reduced the damage it does to heavily armored vehicles.
• Decreased the range of Bolt Action Sniper and Pump Shotgun Slug rounds when using Magnum Ammo for better Kit Balance, especially in Hardcore.
• Slightly increased the Health of soldiers in Hardcore for better Kit Balance.
• Increased the benefit from the Medkit Heal+ specialization to make it more desirable as a Specialization.
• Decreased the benefit from Vehicle Reload Speed to balance it against other Vehicle Specializations.
• Slightly decreased the benefit from accuracy specializations to balance the changes to range and accuracy tweaks.
• Fixed a bug where the BMD3 would take extra damage to the front armor.
• Reduced the explosive damage from Attack Helicopter cannons.
• Increased the damage of AA guns against all targets. The AA gun should be much more effective against infantry on Port Valdez.

Great improvements.
