Game Modes

Single-player
There is single player! In a battlefield game! Weird, I know!

Squad Rush: 4v4
Each team has an M-COMM station. Kind of like CTF but the flags don't move.

Squad Death-Match: 4v4v4v4
Played on a smaller map, this is just a straight up team-dm with a single vehicle dropped in the centre to fight over. Get your mates, grab your guns and start shooting.

Conquest: 16v16 PC, 12v12 PS3/360
A Battlefield mainstay, this mode makes its return here. No major changes announced, and there've been hints at classic maps making reappearances as DLC.

Rush: 16v16 PC, 12v12 PS3/360
Players choose to join either the Attacking team or the Defending team, and spawn in their respective bases. Attackers try to set up demolition charges on a set of 2 M-COMM crates in the Defending team's base. For each Attacker killed, the team loses one life, or "ticket." If the Attacking team's tickets run out, game over. If they manage to detonate the M-COMM's, a new Defending team base opens up, and the process repeats itself until three bases have been destroyed and the Attackers win.

Kits (Loadouts)

Assault
The basic offensive loadout. Main features are an ammo box that replenishes ammo when dropped, and a 40mm launcher that can be used for grenades, smoke grenades, or a slow-reloading shotgun attachment. Assault Rifles are the Assault's main primary weapon. Against vehicles, the Assault will generally not fare so well.

Medic
Similar to the Assault's ammo box, the medic gets a first aid kit. Once dropped, it will replenish health to everyone within a fairly tight radius. The medic also gets defib paddles, which can resurrect recently deceased teammates. These teammates, still caught in the limbo of the spawn timer, will be marked on your minimap (and on screen if HUD is enabled) by a little green or blue heart-rate monitor symbol. The medic's primary is the Light Machine Gun, making him great for infantry support. Against vehicles, though, he is worse off than the Assault.

Engineer
The engineer's specials are a welding tool that repairs friendly vehicles (and deals damage to enemies!), and the choice between RPG's or anti-tank mines. RPG's have the added benefit of being able to lock onto anything that has already been marked by the cross-kit unlock tracer dart pistol, while anti-tank mines will not harm friendly vehicles and stay deployed even after you die or switch kits. Engineer's primaries are Sub Machine Guns, generally pretty weak but also silenced and fairly accurate.

Recon
The recon's specials are a choice between remote-detonated C4 and the ability to call down a mortar strike on a target with which you have line-of-sight. They also gets the incredibly useful motion sensor thing, which spots all enemies within a decent radius for a limited time. The recon's primaries are sniper rifles. Also it can't be overstated how much proper hiding will help you in this: people will walk within 2 feet of you if you're in the right bush, the ghillie suit is your friend.

CarbonFire's Turret Mouse Fix

CARBONFIRE'S Mouse Smoothing and Turret Speed Fix for BFBC2

This fix will change the way your mouse works in-game for both your regular infantry view and when using stationary / vehicle turrets or Choppers.

Currently Battlefield Bad Company 2 has mouse smoothing on by default, with no way of turning the feature off in the game's settings. Mouse Smoothing normalizes your mouse's input, "smoothing out" very fast or very slow movements. The result of this smoothing is often aiming that feels floaty or laggy, which is obviously not desirable in an FPS!

Also BFBC2 turrets tend to turn at a much slower rate compared to normal infantry mouse aiming. This fix will solve that problem and opens the potential for turrets to reach their maximum turning speed without affecting infantry movement. This will also make vehicle turrets turn faster, but they have a hard-coded maximum turning speed, so don't expect to pull a quick 180 with a tank turret anytime soon.

DISCLAIMER: This fix involves changing values within key game files that are relied upon to properly run BFBC2. It is advised that you back up these files prior to editing, and that you don't go changing any values outside the ones shown below. Use this fix at your own risk, you assume all responsibility if you mess up your game.

Ok, with that out of the way, here are the steps to killing mouse smoothing and fixing those slow turrets:

Go to your My Documents > BFBC2 folder. We will be making changes to the Gamesettings.ini file, as well as the files within the <input> folder, so go ahead and make back-up copies of those first.

IF YOU DON'T HAVE AN <INPUT> FOLDER, IT IS BECAUSE YOU ARE USING THE DEFAULT KEYBINDINGS.
You must go to your settings in-game and bind at least one custom control (doesn't matter which) before the game makes this folder with the proper files inside.

THE FIX

1. Make sure BFBC2 is closed
2. Open GameSettings.ini and make the following changes:
   
   Sensitivity0=0.000000
   Sensitivity1=0.000000
   Sensitivity2=0.000000
   .
   .
   .
   Scheme0Sensitivity=2.50000 <--- This value will be your normal in-game mouse sensitivity, it seems to have no effect on turrets or vehicles. Feel free to experiment with this value and change as necessary. I found 2.5 to be a good compromise between fast turning speed and precision with a 1000DPI mouse, but YMMV. Values from 0.001 to 100+ are valid.
   .
   .
   InputAcceleration=0
   
   
3. Save and close GameSettings.ini
   
4. Navigate to the <input> folder, open infantry.dbx using notepad
   
5. Search for the following line:
   <field name="ConceptIdentifier">ConceptPitch</field>
   
6. Below this line you'll see several similar-looking blocks of data. Make the following changes:
   
   
   .
7. Just Below this section you'll find a similar section with the following header:
   <field name="ConceptIdentifier">ConceptYaw</field>
   
   Again, find the appropriate block of data and make the following changes:
   
   
   .
8. Save and close infantry.dbx
   
   Mouse Smoothing should be effectively disabled at this point. However this change will render turrets and vehicles nearly impossible to use, so make sure you follow the remaining steps...
   .
9. In the <input> folder, open land.dbx using notepad
10. Search for the following line:
    <field name="ConceptIdentifier">ConceptPitch</field>
    
11. Again, you'll see several similar-looking blocks of data below this section. Make the following changes:
    
    
    
    Note: 10 here is a suggestion, again feel free to experiment. Values below 5 seemed too sluggish for my taste, while values far greater than 20 did not seem to make turrets any faster at turning, just more "squirrely" (changing directions more quickly, making it harder to stay on target).
    .
12. Just Below this section you'll find a similar section with the following header:
    <field name="ConceptIdentifier">ConceptRoll</field>
    
    Again, find the appropriate block of data and make the following changes:
    
    
    .
13. Save and close land.dbx
    
    Note: The next section applies only to piloting Helicopters (not including the UAV). Gunner seats and the UAV seem to follow the "land" control guidelines for turning speed. Also this fix was only tested for mouse flight. If you fly with a joystick or keyboard-only controls, you'll probably have to play with these settings a bit more to get them to work with your setup. Good Luck!
    .
14. In the <input> folder, open air.dbx using notepad
15. Same as before, search for the following line:
    <field name="ConceptIdentifier">ConceptPitch</field>
    
    Below this line you'll see several similar-looking blocks of data. Make the following changes:
    
    
    .
16. Search for the following line:
    <field name="ConceptIdentifier">ConceptRoll</field>
    
    Again, find the appropriate block of data and make the following changes:
    
    
    
    Choppers seem to need much higher values to compensate for setting the "main" mouse sensitivity to zero in step 2. Much lower than 100 and the chopper is hard to move. I tried up to 300, and while it worked, it wasn't a significant change. Again, experiment and find a value that suits you. Like turrets, there is a hard-coded maximum turning speed that the game allows, so don't expect this to transform your chopper into a super stunt machine.
    .
17. Save and close air.dbx
18. Start up BFBC2
19. ENJOY!
20. (optional)Curse EA as the servers go down again and go play single-player instead ;-)

One final note: Vehicles / Turrets will always be affected by some smoothing, as there is no Scheme#Sensitivity or other setting I was able to find in GameSettings.ini that changed vehicle/turret behavior.

Hope this tutorial makes your BC2 experience just a little more awesome.

See you on the Battlefield soldier 8-)

Smoke weed, play BC2. DO IT

UAV Controls Un-Invert

If you swap [the red underlined] value the UAV and the helicopters will be the same inversion. To find these values, please refer to CarbonFire's turret fix.

Adding servers without using the horrible browser

Zetx wrote: »

I think this bears repeating:

To easily add some PA servers (Angry Dome in particular) to your Favorites tab, edit GameSettings.ini (Found in MyDocs/BFBC2) and add:

75443431,958a33dd-6071-4f61-bb1e-bfe803481ae5,The Angry Dome;3789002014,22595a7b-ccf6-404f-97ea-b854175e34d4,Penny Arcade West Coast Server;2408473747,c8876d1f-8914-4edd-a77e-b63930390661,Black House Combat [Seattle];

That'll add The Angry Dome, PA West Coast, and Black House Combat. I couldn't find any mention of the other PA servers while digging around for these. This should go in the OP. Also, add Zetty to the PC-EA Account Thing.

Let's fill up the server with angry burly men who use the M14

I mean why even use the Gustav, it works sure, but so does a tactical nuke. Racking up a phat score with the M14 is like winning the LeMans 24 hour in a fucking school bus - you are clearly the best person on the server.

The sights are slightly better, but the two extra bullets and slightly faster reload of the M14 do come in handy.
Also not announcing to the enemy when you're out of ammo is a plus ;-)

The M14 is cool, it's a shame you can't put optics on it.

It's a beast in Hardcore.

Arrath

The M14 is the best gun.

And it has a faster reload than an M1? That is really weird.

I won't lie, the iron sights on it do suck. I just think of it as an extra handicap.

I came here to talk about shirtgons and lo and behold, everyone is already talking about shirtgons.

I thought shotgun wookie sounded like a terrible idea. then I tried it - slug variant. I was all Boom! headshot. Boom! headshot. why can't I snipe with a sniper rifle but I can snipe with slugs like a pro?

After my first few games with it I didn't notice the thick rear ring anymore, and it became perfect for me.

What do you get or unlock for ranks beyond 22? Anything? I don't see any all-kit items beyond there.

Too bad I can't do anything but notice it, cos it kills half my vision. I get disoriented enough in firefights as it is, I don't need half my immediate FOV blocked by my own iron sights. It should always be noted that my situational awareness is total shit when I'm shooting. It's like extreme tunnel vision and it doesn't happen in any other game. :<

AhiMahi

FYI, new m24 sounds like one bad mofo.

Help me out guys,

My M416 skills seem to be insufficient to consistently beat Akaban users. I was being killed way too often by these guys, and the gun seems to be way to easy to use myself. I'm tempted just to get platinum with the 416 (I think I have 8 gold stars) and then stop using it entirely and go with the Abakan.

Also people who crash helis into M-Com stations are tools. What a cheap tactic.

Zaylenz

I've been enjoying the 416 since I unlocked it a little while ago. It's very accurate in short bursts, but in a close in emergency I can go full auto without the spread increasing too drastically. But, what I'm really looking forward to is finally unlocking the magnum ammo for all the weapons. I'm level 13 now, so only a few more to go.

Robman

Nah helo-bombing the MCOM is legit, it's mining the mcom that is laaaaame

Also lame are fools who don't move to the MCOMs when on D or O

Unless you're close enough to use the M416's fire rate to it's full advantage, there's a really good chance you'll be losing to Abakan users at long distances.

hailthefish

Maybe this doesn't happen on the Dome, but I've been playing nothing but Rush on public servers, and I find I win way more often as defense than as offense. I suspect it's to do with the proclivity of pubbies on attack to find a nice hill and pitch a tent, trying to milk the infinite defender spawns for all they're worth in a quest for kills. This is completely contrary to the actual goal of the attackers. Which means they lose, a lot.

Robman

I'm the same way, my win/loss when on O is about 50/50 and my win/loss on D is about 70/30

Pretty stark difference

The thing to focus on as a defender is that you can toss some mines around and pick up some random triple kills

People who are on a quest for glory with the M14 are brave men (or women). It's been said before, but personally the Iron Sights are so bad that I'd rather watch hours of those Help Christians Save Starving African Children™ commercials than even think about using the M14.

Also disappointed that Repair Tools don't get stars for kills. With the way knifing is right now, repair tooling is much safer (and infinitely more hilarious).

Arrath

If the M14 had the 20 round mag that it should, I think it'd almost be unbalanced, though then I could use it without magnum ammo.

Pretty often I can take out 3 guys with it, just triple tap them all.

I suppose a smug.gif would be in order.

ebotastic

Man, the PA team was awful again tonight.

It didn't help that the other team had at least two guys that were mining the MCOMs.

And even though we lost so much, and the other team was being dicks, I managed to double my total number of ace pins tonight to 6.

I bet I would've had a seventh if the EA servers didn't boot me on that last map. Herr Alegis and I were tearing shit up in the T90, and it was some of the most fun I've had in the tank in this game. GG, EA. GG.

finnith

Yea, the Abakan (Akaban?) is getting to me in long-distance, though its no slouch at getting headshots mid range.

Also BF Stats verse seems to have stopped updating my player. Is there a cap after which point they stop recording? I know they only track the top 500k in BF1943.

If the M14 had the 20 ammo clip it would seriously be the perfect gun

The sights aren't all that bad, but slapping the 4x on that bitch would just be UNF UNF UNF

ed. as in, slightly overpowered. but not as bad as the m60 or CARL so whatevs I guess

I agree that the m14 sights aren't that terrible.

Something about the recoil + high powered scopes make me hate anything other than the original iron sights on most guns.

Statsverse isn't tracking ANYBODY right now, I don't think. http://bfbcs.com is mildly functional though, but not as pretty.
