Basic tips for playing Bad Company 2

[Crackers]

Crackers crappy tips to playing Bad Company 2

1. Aim slightly above people if you are sniping/shooting at a distance. All projectiles are affected by gravity and bullet fly time. It will be annoying/hard at first but once you get the hang of it you'll be a useful, useless recon sniper in no time.

2. Any vehicle perks you have work in the vehicle you're in for all people in it. eg if you have improved warhead perk and your buddy has the amour upgrade you both get each perk, do a little planning ahead of time to achieve maximum effectiveness. (Heard this in a dev demo video)

3. Revive people! Reviving not only gives you sick points but if you're attacking it will replenish your tickets

4. You may not need ammo or healing but someone else might. Throw down your ammo pack and medkits in areas where people usally defend or attack at.

5. Did you kill the medic who just killed your buddy? Pick up his kit and revive your squadmate then simply pick yours back up. Or was your squadmate a medic? Do the same thing but be quick or that rat bastard you just revived will steal your kit.

6. Shooting vehicles: I will list which area does most damage from most damage to least, sides, top, back, and front (Some people say shooting at the tires on the sides of vehicles does more damage.)

7. Spawn on squadmates to get in the fight fast; but don't waste tickets by spawning on someone when you know both you and him are going to die.

8. The tracer dart and you. Since Im lazy I'll just post a video


If anyone wants to post some tips about flying that'd be great since I suck at anything but the uav.

Is the tracer gun unlocked from the get go? And what key is it that brings it up? I would have looked in my settings but I'm lazy.

[Newman]

In the beta the Tracer Dart gun wasn't unlocked until max level so I'm not sure when we will be getting it come launch.

It is in your pistol slot and replaces the pistol.

[Timber Wolf]

If you pre ordered it comes unlocked for you. If you didnt preorder youll have to level up to get it agian.

Sweet!

back does most damage, always been that way in bf, and most other ones when youd shoot the vents in the back it would do even more.

you forgot one rule

1. follow stephen with as medic he will destroy everything in his path but die in the process lol
