What is it?
What do you think it is? It's a video game! It is a first person shooter developed by EA games and DICE.
What do you do in it?
Well, like in every FPS, you shoot people with guns. That is the basics of it, but there's a lot more you can do. It has four multi-player game-types, Rush and Conquest.
Rush:
Attackers: If you are an attacker, you must kill, destroy, shoot, revive and repair your way to the M-COM. When you get there, you must put an explosive thing on it and make it go "BOOM". But don't think you can just walk there carelessly and expect success. The defenders job is to stop you, and if they kill you too often, your team will run out of respawn tickets and you will lose.
Defenders: As said above, the defenders job is to stop the attacker from getting to the M-COM and blowing it up. You have unlimited respawn tickets, but if the attackers destroy too many M-COM's, you will lose. You can disarm the explosive the attackers put on it. So the defenders main objective is pretty much the same as the name of Metallica's first album, "Kill'Em All". Slay all attackers before they blow up all the M-COM's.
Conquest:
In conquest there are three flags and two teams. The goal is to make the enemy's respawn tickets run out. To do this you must obviously kill members of the opposing team, but also capture flags. If one team controls two or more flags, the other teams respawn tickets will constantly decrease, so it's a good idea to do that.
Squad Deathmatch:
16 players divided into 4 squads, and 1 vehicle, designed to slay infantry are all put on the same match. The first squad to kill 50 people wins.
Squad Rush (or as I like to call it, Mini-Rush):
The same as rush, but the teams only consist of 4 players each.
Does it have a campaign:
Yes it does! You play as Private Preston Marlowe, a soldier in a squad known as "Bad Company". Like in it's prequel, your fellow squad members are technology expert Private Terrance Sweetwater, Private George Haggard Jr., your go-to-guy for everything that'll make a "BOOM" and Sergeant Samuel Redford. The squad goes on a crazy adventure to find a top-secret weapon codenamed "Aurora".
What makes it so special?
Let's say you're playing a game like Modern Warfare 2. You see an enemy inside a house, but he doesn't see you. In all cases, you must find a window or a door if you want to go in and kill him, because the wall isn't gonna go down. In Bad Company 2, however, it does! In the same scenario, you can blow the house up in thin air. Everything in Bad Company (excluding some rocks and the ground) can be blown up. Almost nowhere is safe. To find a good cover, you must be more original than in your every day FPS.
To sum it up, if you like FPS, get Bad Company 2. Some say that the single-player isn't all that good, but the multi-player is definitely worth it. Just remember: Teamwork is essential. Squads are a big part of the game, use it. And also: Medics, Engineers and Recon have other jobs that to just kill people. Don't forget to revive, repair and spot. Remember those, and you're good to go, soldier.
