From 18:00 to 22:00 CET we will be crowding the servers to getour game on. In case you would like togame with us on the different servers, add our gamertags and let's have a goodfight! zh1nt0 Gomenasai FairDinkvm Bazajaytee GreasyQuill German Community Day at DICE On Sunday, German Community representatives visited Stockholm for an exclusive Battlefield Bad Company 2 Vietnam playtest. Not only Vietnam was on the agenda, but also a small tour of the studio and also a special opportunity for them to playtest the open Beta for Medal of Honor. After this there was a small QA Session with Sebastian "Sibin" Armonioso, the multiplayer game Designer for Medal of Honor. After the QA session with lots of interesting questions, it was time for lunch! After we were all happy and content with the delicious lunch, all players connected to the servers and played Vietnam for a few hours. The map Phu Bai valley was played and this showed the players a completely different experience than what they were used to in Battlefield Bad Company 2. After this there was a small QA Session with the Lead Designer for Vietnam, Niklas Fegraeus. http://www.battlefieldbadcompany2.com/sites/default/files/pod_html/bilderablage-1-ger/img/1001855.jpghttp://www.battlefieldbadcompany2.com/sites/default/files/pod_html/bilderablage-1-ger/img/1001864.jpg Rollingwith awesome Video Competition We have nowcome to the last week of the big video competition!

Just in from EA's Battlefield Blog Putting the DICE Touch in Medal of Honor http://blogs.battlefield.ea.com/resized-image.ashx/__size/550x0/__key/CommunityServer.Blogs.Components.WeblogFiles/battlefield_5F00_bad_5F00_company/Patrick-Liu.jpg DICE knows multiplayer. When EALA needed veterans to develop the multiplayer modes for Medal of Honor, they called on us. Patrick Liu is the producer for Medal of Honor here at DICE: "You'll definitely see the DICE touch in Medal of Honor multiplayer, where we bring the experience from the Battlefield series and our sensibilities in game design. The tweaks we have done are mostly to focus more on the infantry experience and close quarter combat. For example, we have created Objective Raid, the quickest multiplayer mode ever at DICE -- a time limited and asymmetric mode where the defending team is protecting two military installations against an overwhelming number of attackers. It's really a relentless fight with no rest for either team!" For the full info on Medal of Honor and to watch the new kickass trailer for the Objective Raid game mode, make the jump to the official Medal of Honor blog. http://blogs.battlefield.ea.com/resized-image.ashx/__size/350x0/__key/CommunityServer.Blogs.Components.WeblogFiles/battlefield_5F00_bad_5F00_company/ObjectiveRaid4.png http://blogs.battlefield.ea.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=30761 More...

Just in from EA's Battlefield Blog Community Worldwide #2 Hello Ladies and Gentlemen! This week for Community Worldwide I took the time to speak with a Community Manager for an up and coming Battlefield Community known as Battlefield Turkey. It fits very well because I'm going to guest-play in their scrim against www.bf-news.de on Friday. I contaced Aytac to see what his views were on his Community and Battlefield in general. http://blogs.battlefield.ea.com/resized-image.ashx/__size/200x0/__key/CommunityServer.Blogs.Components.WeblogFiles/battlefield_5F00_bad_5F00_company/bfturkeyvsbfnews.jpg In his own words: My Name isAytac Dogan, I'm 37 Years "young" and was born and live inSwitzerland/Zürich. I'm very, I mean VERY happy married with a beautiful Wife;). I work asIT-Manager in a german Company called TUI. Games andgaming was since i was a little boy a very important part of my life. I justbegan with an IBM286, then the famous C64, right after that with my Amiga500. I can stillremember, that i payed for a 512KB RAM Upgrade for my Amiga500 to 1MB over 300Swiss Franks (equal in $). Oh Man, those were times... For a 37year old gamer like me, I have started very late with the BF Series. In theyear of 2005 I started with the BF World. Also in that year i got married. Ilove playing Online Games with my Friends and this was the reason why i beganto play the Battlefield games in 2005. The most played game till today was 2142since this games is really different - in my opinion the best Battlefield gameever - but not just me, my Wife's playing 2142 too, and she's really good!Watch your backs if you see her on the battlefield. The BFScene and my goal It took histime to realize that BF was well known in Turkey. For the first time in my lifeI saw a BF Turkey Server called Istanbul. Oh Man that was a great Day! I never thought that Turkey hadsuch a dedicated Battlefield Community! From that day I had the vision to playwith more turkish people. One of the best ways to find more turkish playingpeople was to build a Fanpage. First i started with Battlefield-turkiye.com andnow with my brand new site BFturkey.com i want to share everything about thisgreat BF Franchise and the ongoingdifferent projects at DICE. My firstgoal is to build a Bridge between Turkey and West-Europe to play together as abig family and to share news from DICE. To fight against piracy and this means"teaching every day the young generations of gamers in turkey" howimportant it is to pay for that what you're playing and how important this isfor the games companies and last but not least for yourself is my second goal. My thirdGoal, and please listen good to this DICE and EA is to make the whole BFfranchise and of course all other great DICE games in turkish language support! This isreally my wish for all the energy I put in my great Turkish Community... The Economyin Turkey is growing faster then any other European country, plus all the youngpeople who live in Turkey (in average the youngest country in Europe) are very importantfacts for me, and this is why I'm doing this. Thank YOU! Bizidestekleyen ve türk oyun piyasasina inanan ve ileriye götürmek isteyen herkesetesekkürlerimi iletmek istiyorum, özellikle Daniel'e, bana ve sonuçta TürkCommunity'ye verdigi ve gösterdigi ilgisi için. Thank toall who's supporting us and believing in Turkey, exspecally Daniel for hissupport for me and of course to all Turkish Playing BF Fans out there! Danke an Alle, die uns support und an den türkischen Spielemarkt glauben. http://blogs.battlefield.ea.com/resized-image.ashx/__size/100x0/__key/CommunityServer.Blogs.Components.WeblogFiles/battlefield_5F00_bad_5F00_company/IMG_5F00_1684.jpg Aytac Dogan BFturkey.com http://twitter.com/BFturkey // www.twitter.com/zh1nt0 http://blogs.battlefield.ea.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=30812 More...
