Vote for your favorite entry on the sidebar! http://blogs.battlefield.ea.com/battlefield_bad_company/archive/2010/08/31/community-pictures-contest.aspx Also, don't forget to post your best strategies in this post: http://forums.electronicarts.co.uk/battlefield-bad-company-2-pc/1323977-what-your-best-strategy-bc2.html This weeks Questions and Answers The weapon balancing in this game shows some guns are very overpowered. Is there any truth to that? There are a small number of weapons that are debated as being over or under powered. Kill stats that are available on our website show that these weapons are still used by a minority of players, and the weapons considered by the community to be most balanced are also the most used weapons. Balance is an ongoing process and we will continue to tune and tweak the game to make sure players are getting an optimal experience. How come you are releasing map packs and not "new" maps? The idea of the VIP program was to make sure that we had a continuous flow of content to our players, to keep the Battlefield updated with new places to fight in. We also wanted to make sure these were free of charge to the people with VIP codes. The remixed maps has worked great for this but we clearly also hear the community request for new maps. Naturally these are much heavier to create from a dev stand point and hence the lead times are longer. A lot of players are experiencing heavylag after Map Pack 6. Why is that? Map Pack 6’s release coincided with anincrease in player use of an exploit with the chat system which caused playerson the server to lag. We have implemented chat limits to prevent this fromhappening and play should have returned to normal. Please report any ongoinglag problems to us on the forums. Rolling with Awesome - The video Competition Who can create the funniest, most creative and original BFBC2 Video? Enter your Video on youtube, PM any of the admins and we will put it in the Sticky.
