If you’ve played Bad Company for any amount of time, you’ve likely come across any number of issues in the multiplayer mode. (The single-player and its atrocious AI is an entire story in and of itself; don’t get me started on that.) The development team at DICE is committed to addressing the issues, starting with the release of the classic Battlefield game mode, Conquest. The mode (and altered versions of the game’s maps to go along with it) is currently undergoing testing and certification, which is a good sign we won’t have to wait too much longer to see it.
Following that, DICE will be working on other problems and omissions that gamers have been wanting. On the official Bad Company blog, they list some of the issues they’ll be looking to address, including:
- Clan support/private rooms/team chat
- Auto balancing on servers
- Continued support against stats exploits
- VOIP issue on PS3 (working with Sony on this)
- Squads might be split up when joining a server as a squad. This is due to team balancing in the games that are being joined, and usually resolves itself in round 2.
As a fan of the game (I’ve grown to like it more and more each time I play it), I’m glad DICE won’t be sitting back now that the game has been released. Battlefield games have been notoriously buggy, with patches not coming nearly as often as they should. In my experience, Bad Company doesn’t have a laundry list of game-breaking problems, but the more attention DICE pays to the game, the better.
this is a great game and i understand some things jus cant be fixed bc of lack of space…but it would be nice to be able to parachute bc wen your chopper is bout to blow up, you usually dont have enuff time to land and get out. plus parachuting was jus plain fun. you also need to be ale to lay down…i dont understand why they didnt put that in in the first place…halo is like the only game that you cant lay down in and halo is gay…so yeah, nuff said. grenade launcher damage is definatly annoying…you have to hit them dead on to kill someone…thats jus stupid…and if you hit a humm v with a grenade..im prettty sure its gunna blow up. as of now you have to hit it like 3 times to blow it up. oh and one more thing….I WANNA TALK TO MY WHOLE DAMN TEAM!!!! WTF…and no more people spawning on me and giving away my position. thats jus retarded
so all said and done
.i wanna lay down
.i wanna parachute
.i wanna actually blow peaple up with the nade launcher
.and i wanna talk to my team
so fix these or ill be kinda sad
