Sometimes the gratitude of a nation just isn't enough Set in the near future, the Battlefield: Bad Company single-player campaign drops gamers behind enemy lines as part of a squad of four soldiers - risking it all to go AWOL on a personal quest. Featuring a dramatic storyline flavoured with attitude, Battlefield: Bad Company leads gamers far from the traditional frontlines on a wild ride with a group of renegade soldiers who decide that sometimes the gratitude of a nation just isn’t enough. The Battlefield: Bad Company cinematic single-player experience captures the freedom and intensity of the Battlefield series’ multiplayer sandbox gameplay in a dynamic world where nearly everything is destructible. Players have total freedom to be daring and innovative, adapting to and tackling challenges in unexpected Battlefield-style ways. Create sniping positions by blowing out a piece of a wall or drive your tank straight through a small house. The ever-changing battlefield forces players, their teammates and enemies to react accordingly.
The game also features the all new, objective based multiplayer game mode "Gold Rush", supporting 24 players online. Play as attackers and defenders and make full use of the tactical destruction as well as the unique vehicle experience of Battlefield: Bad Company.

| 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. |

 Get over COD4 July 3, 2008
0 out of 3 found this review helpful
All I would like to say is that everyone needs to get over COD4 and stop comparing new first person shooter that come out to COD4. COD4 was been out almost a year now GET OVER IT!!!!! its time to move on to somthing new. Not saying that COD4 is a bad game because its not and we all know that. All I am saying let play somthing else.
This game is a real fun game try it you might like it.
 Not really what I consider a good FPS July 3, 2008

Good:
The Destructable environment is a step forward.
Not So Good:
The game is 90% dominated by armor, helios, fixed guns etc. I'm sure there are tons of plp that never get out of the tanks. They just take a new one every time they spawn.
**WAY WAY TOO MUCH** of the game (mabye 90%) is controlled by Armor, Helios, Artillary, etc.
Graphics and sound are not as good as COD4.
Way to hard to drop people with small arms. If you've got the drop on someone (anyone) at close range with a full auto weapon they should go down. (notice the period)
Overall:
I'm sure over time I'll get to like the game better. I don't think I'll ever like it as much as COD4, mostly due to low value on actual first person shooting. Mabye fixing the total amount of mechs or being able to limit their effectiveness by blowing bridges or something would help.
 People think this game is "amazing" ??? July 2, 2008

This game is disappointing at best. It's just like Assassin's Creed in the regard that it's a game solely made to show off a new type of gaming engine. Yeah, you can blow up trees and walls, great. The graphics are terrible! I don't know what game other people are playing but this looks like Medal of Honor for the PS2! The accuracy of the weapons is horrible and enemies take whole clips to be killed. The health injection and checkpoints take all the difficulty out of the game. You can die 1000 times and still come back to the same spot and the enemies don't respawn. I truly believe that this is a down grade from the last game, BF:MC I LOVE FPS's. I've played 'em all. I'm just really let down by this release. By the way, You can't talk to anyone outside of your 4 man squad on a 12 man team in multiplayer! That really helps the whole team work and strategy aspect of the game... I give this game a 2 instead of a 1 simply because there are far worse games out there. I'm just overall disappointed. I wish EA still supported BF:MC!!!!

Anyone who liked call of duty 4 is going to love this game. its a bigger better version of cod. you can drive tanks helis and humves, its awesome. the only bad part is that you lose points if u kill ur own guy. Also there is no split screen. however the online play is massive and everything is destructible. so if ur like me and sick and tired of cod 4 get battlefield: bad company.
Another $60.00 wasted July 1, 2008

Here's the deal.
This game has a few things going for it.
It is cool to blow big holes in the side of buildings. I am also a big fan of shooting the trees down. The single player has some moments that are kind of funny. The graphics are not on par with the great shooters, but they are still pretty good.
My complaints with the game are as follows.
Ok first off it seems like my guys top speed is a breath taking 2 mph, 3 mph if I am sprinting. The graphics are not all that great. The controls are sloppy and it is hard to be very accurate. Some of the things they put in the game to be clever are just stupid. Like the injector that heals you, which means you have to put away your gun to heal yourself. This wouldn't be so bad if I wasn't using the damn thing every 10 seconds. Also the vehicle repair tool that you just grind against the side of a car to make it run again. What's the point of that? If you want to stab someone the knife stays in your hand so you have to pull out your gun again. Also the multiplayer sucks, blow up gold crates.... Whatever. I hear they are releasing new modes, but who cares when the game play is this bad.
Anyways, maybe I am just spoiled from Halo and COD4. But it feels like they rushed this game out. I recommend that you keep your money and wait for the really good games this fall.
