I always seemed to be a few steps behind, for eg, found a server which was always full, the clan would invite me to squad up with them, join the clan and then the server starts getting empty, then clan members leave and before you know it its dead. This was about a cycle of 12 months. Where do you think most people went/were going. Differn't games? Differn't servers? Maybe it was an age thing, where after 2-3 years 15 year olds start going to uni and meet girls, ewwwww, girls. That dont mean I like boys.

On the scale of Bf2, there isn´t anything "new" out on PC. I tried Bf Heroes, Killing Floor, CoD4, Bf 2142. But since I stopped playing 2142 I do lack a Bf game. Can´t wait for Bad Company 2

Also I love TF2 to death, sure it's not your average FPS and it's really cartoony but the gameplay can be absolutely fantastic.
BF2: Bad company 2 is hopefully going to rock! Im waiting anxiously to see if it lives up to its bf2 ancestor.

Also, semi-related, Team Fortress 2 was super fun. Cept i only had a 3 day fullversion trial of it....

Fuck sake mitch, its like 20 bucks.

You can't really pirate them anyway, and he said he had he used a three day trial. TF2 is fucking shit. People over here wank over Valve and anything they do

Steam is also fucking annoying.

Also i loved Fallout 3, but thats not the same type of game as bf2.

Im downloading borderlands now, in hopes that its as awesome as Fallout3.

If you want to take it to the next level. Download the Project Reality MOD for bf2. It is all I play. Fantastic MOD.

Are there a lot of servers/people playing online at any given time? I dont wanna fire it up and see 10 servers all with 1 person sitting idle.

TF2 was fucking awesome, I think it edged out BF2 just for me.

Everything else just can't compare. BF2 was/is the best modern warfare shooter of the lot!

I dont use my pc now and I wouldnt go out and buy games like BF2 for it, but else is available/can be compared to BF2 other than Mw2/cod.

The Delta Force games were pretty similar to BF2 but they also predated BF2. Nothing has really had the same feel since. Kids have short attention spans and large maps don't appeal to them I guess.

I did enjoy the closed quarters of the old duckie server that played a 64 player game on a 16 player karkand sized map. Made for massive slaughtering.

Man that was fun.

Fallout 3 is shit.

Get TF2.

As long as you're not one of those "hurd durf" people who are attracted to visuals and MW2, you'll probably like it.
..Just don't join any 32 player servers.

I guess I'm strange but I've never enjoyed the small maps that CS and COD offered. I don't want to run around in circles for hours.

TF2 is a pretty decent class shooter. I really hated it at first. It's learning curve is pretty steep for some classes. Since the updates though the game has gotten worse I feel mainly because I am a spy whore it has become so much harder to spy. It's also hard to find servers with vanilla respawn times.

Yeah HL2 was over-hyped half the shit that was shown in all the previews didn't even end up being in the game. They could of implemented the "ground-breaking" physics into the game a bit more. It seemed pretty short in comparison to the first one too

Nothing ever got me like BF2 that game was like a drug, then after picking up TF2 I just thought this is great in terms of there being not too many game breaking bugs. Mainly reg.

For some reason I don't think we will see too many games that pushed the envelope as much as BF2. There is just so many aspects in the game which makes it great but it also opens the opportunity for so many bugs. I think developers would much rather go the safe route. ARMA2 is meant to be decent though I doubt there is that many people on it though.

Right on. TF2, while decent, has nothing on BF2.

BF2 = best MP FPS ever, straight up.

I love the feel of the BF2 games, the way it wasn't just about reaction shooting. How you could walk miles of terrain to get to a spot to sabotage commander assets or boobytrap enemy planes or even just shoot a few unaware guys who weren't counting on an enemy to be in their main base. The adrenalin when they realised you were there and started hunting for you, the thrill of taking out as many as you could and the elation of finding a way out afterwards to rejoin your team mates. You don't get the opportunity to do that stuff in other shooters.

Yeah, MW2 is too tigh-quarters. I liked being able to drive/fly across a map. The 32 player BF2 maps were the best, IMO. If you were on foot, you could get to the battle within a minute, and if you were flying/driving you still had enough space to maneuver.

I always wind up dying within a minute or two in MW2. BF2 allowed you to actually use strategy and tactics for more than 20 second bursts!

And the TEAMWORK was SO much better in BF2. The squad system was one of the best features in the game. Sadly, it didn't seem to catch on...
