Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 vs Battlefield Bad Company 2
I have recently purchased both games and will use this space to write a little review of how I feel they stack up against each other.
Single Player Capaign Mode
MW2
Good
- A good plot which keeps you interested
Bad
- The capaign game was over far too soon. It could have done with a bit longer. I expect hardcore out of work players or children in holidays would complete on the day of purchase.
BC2
Good
- almost fully destructable landscape. Alot of buldings can be destroyed, however not all.
Bad
- Plot seems weak so far as I haven't completed it yet
- Far too many cut scenes. sometimes you have only just run a hundred yards and oops, here we go.. another cut scene. It breaks up the gaming flow far too much.
Multiplayer Online
MW2
- Selectable perks allow you to tweak the "skills" of your soldier to suit your needs.
BC2
Good
- i'm loving the Recon class's calling in of mortars. very useful tool.
Bad
- I found the basic guns difficult to get on with.
- Medics can't Heal or revive until they learned their skills!
General
MW2
BC2
Good
- Landscapes are wide and open
- Bullets drop over distance
Bad
- Too much swearing. There is a lot of pointless swearing in the whole game, multiplayer and single player. This is not by other players but by the Non Player Characters. I wouldn't want any of my children under 13 playing the game.
-PC version crashes quite a lot.
To be continued... I will add more as I go along.
