Nope. Rush in BC2 was much better. Defender Spawns being closer to mcoms, mcom placement, and the ability to bash mcoms made bc2 rush better.

You cannot seriously believe that Atacama Desert Rush/Arica Harbor Rush/Port Valdez Rush/Heavy Metal Rush etc were fun rush maps, they were way too big and boring to play.

Battlefield 3 has city maps and better vehicle maps and mcom placement. Tehran Rush and grand Bazaar rush are very fun for example compared to the huge boring vehicle map that Arica Harbor rush is.

map design hardly matters when you can't contribute anything towards the outcome of an objective-based game other than 'go kill shit'.

Those "big and boring" BC2 rush maps required a lot more tactical thinking and coordination than the BF3 rush maps. BF3 maps are just a matter of pushing out the defenders from the base and camping around the mcoms until they blew. The defenders can't respawn close to the mcom if their squad gets wiped out and the mcoms blow quicker.

In BC2, especially Arica (fav map), you actually hand to think about where you would set up and what part of the map you had to cover. If was much harder than "sit down, point lmg at mcom". Combine that with people attempting to bash the mcoms with tanks, c4, etc. and you had to much more proactive when defending.

BC2 had much better rush.

Map design is everything in rush mode, that's what makes it unique, it progresses through each part of a map. In Bad Company 2 everything was so much more spaced out with no opportunity to flank. So you had no way to flank + big spaced out maps which sucked.

Agree with Mac, BC2s rush was much better than BF3s.

It's supposed to be funny, that's the point of the video. It's instructing noobs not skilled players.

I find that with all the bf videos being posted, just some geek shrieking and trying to be funny. That Shotgun sniper one was particularly annoying. Only a couple have ever been funny to me, and I figure the rest are just trying to emulate them.

I wouldn't particularly say they contained good information, but the basics instead. Unfortunately its the basics that all these new generation of BF players are missing. I never get enough ammo

The G3A3 and KH2002 are fucking amazing. They're on the same level as the AEK if not better.

The 6-7 hours i spend grinding in coop to get these was worth it.

I could've used more people doing exactly that in Battlefield 2 (with the proper kits).

There are a lot of things that are annoying in this game(I won't go through the long list as I'm sure everyone has already experienced them), but I would be happy to overlook these issues if I could just join a fucking squad with mates without it being a long annoying hassle. All squads usually have at least 2 or more in them, and with it being capped at 4 people, trying to get yourself and 2 others in the same squad is sometimes impossible.

They need to increase the size of squads or the number of squads that are available for use.

The G3 and AEK are the best assault rifles in the game after playing with the KH some more and getting the service star for the G3.

imo F2000 > AEK because it has a higher ROF and all assault rifles besides the G3 do the same damage.
