    bought it, played it, and i can tell you that it is GOOD. im glad the developers didnt ? around and charge us a ? ton of money for this. with that said i can say ? BUNGIE for charging people 60 dollars for what is essentially a damn ADD ON with every Halo release.

    i like how vietnam has a pretty different feel than bc2...almost like playing a new game

    vietnam is a bit more close quarter combat since the weapons are weaker and not every gun has a good scope on it

    great series...im digging what DICE has been doing

    lol, close quarters like a mofuka! still fun tho. the maps are massive yet again. re-spawning is on point. not having a scope on weapons is driving me NUTS tho.

    lol man...really hard to answer your question

    i upgraded my processor before vietnam came out so my framerates have gone up nicely even on the original bc2, on top of that i've pushed my graphics cards processor up to 850mhz (stock is 675mhz)

    i can't say it runs better/worse tbh...i did find a way to fix my random crashes to desktop though by changing some settings in the settings notepad file...if you get any random crashes i'll tell you what i did

    btw what resolution do you play at?

    have you messed with the FOV (field of view) ?

    i used this calculator.... http://rjdown.co.uk/projects/bfbc2/fovcalculator.php

    just enter your resolution and it'll give you the optimal FOV which you can change the notepad settings found in C:\Users\_____\Documents\BFBC2 ...made a huge difference for me, greatly improved my experience...so much easier to see things

    thanks for the FOV tip, never thought of that. BFBC2 used to crash on my but ever since an update a few months ago its ran smooth since.

    thats pretty good, kills are harder to come by than wins IMO, I remember me and my homie was part of the 1st group to discover the "C4 on UAV" glitch in this in this game we didnt lose a Rush game for like 2 weeks



    In this game the focus aint on kills so I never pay attention to many kills I get

    Yeah I was on my Battlefield hiatus when people figured that out. When I returned my buddies (the iAM clan) hwere doing that ? when we only had 8 tickets left and winning the game. About a week after that they beefed up the objectives and our team leader's PS3 got YLOD. :(

    Im ? I didnt know its a discount if you buy Vietnam from the in-game store instead of the PS store


    Yo I played original/non-vietnam Bad Company 2 on Conquest yesterday and its so many new maps! I love how they dont charge people for DLC maps in this game

    The one with the cargo ships in the desert is dope as hell!

    Man i was getting bodied in Rush last night, I swear its impossible to win on Defense against a decent team


    We had them down to less than 10 lives on multiple bases but they always got some random rocket or hand grenade to destroy the crates
