Assault Store Shelves with Battlefield 2 for the PC announces that DICE's
shooter sequel is beginning to deploy:
REDWOOD CITY, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 21, 2005--Get to the chopper! Electronic Arts (NASDAQ: ERTS - News) and Digital Illusions today announced that Battlefield 2(TM) has begun to ship to retail outlets for the PC. Powered by an all new game engine, Battlefield 2 brings the intensity and excitement of its predecessors, the award-winning Battlefield 1942(TM) and Battlefield Vietnam(TM), into the modern era with the latest, most technologically advanced vehicles and weapons systems available to man.
In Battlefield 2, players will choose to fight for one of three military superpowers: the United States, China, or the newly formed Middle East Coalition. Armed with the latest modern weaponry, players can take control of any of the game's 30+ vehicles. Players can also hone their skills against improved enemy intelligence in the new single-player campaign before competing online with up to 64 players in some of the most intense battles on the PC.
If you thought infantry was useless and slow, you obviously didn't play the game long enough to become good at it.
I was consistently in the top 3 out of 16-32 on my team, I'd say I was pretty good.
However, if you didn't have a vehicle you weren't going to capture a flag, takes too long to get too and fro. And if a vehicle is coming at you and you're not in one you're a bit screwed, unless you're either anti-tank, or he doesn't see you and you get your C4 on him.
Compared to vehicles infantry was slow and useless. Best way to play is hop in a buggy, go to a flag, hop out, capture while picking off anyone spawning, hop in the buggy, go to the next flag, have another squad defend the one you just captured, repeat.
