GamesCom Wrap Up

GamesCom is over and our DICErs are all back at DICE, but we have some fantastic photos to share with you.

With 245k attendees at GamesCom, the BC2 booth was flooded with fans waiting to get the first hands-on experience of BC2 multiplayer action. Each lucky group was briefed and orgainzed into 4-man squads. Then 3 squads would get a bit of practice in an empty map before moving on to match their skills against our QA in a 12v12 attackers vs. defenders MP map! When the match was over, they were rewarded a BC2 T-shirt!

Other fun activities included doing a few competitive exercises for a ride in the BC2 helicopter.

Our own Patrick Söderlund and KM spent their time presenting BC2 to the press, while Patrick Bach presided over hands-on demonstrations.
