From start to finish Battlefield: Bad Company is an action packed FPS that requires you to not only have some skill, but to pay attention. Enemy AI is pretty smart and will require you to think strategically and think things through. At the time bad company was pretty innovative because it was one of the few games in its area to have destructible environments in this fashion. Parts of buildings are destructible so when you’re trying to hide from and enemy RPG in a house, he’s going to blow up the building you’re in and force you to hop between buildings until you’ve got a shot on him. Like other battlefield games you are able to drive vehicles which are unique in some war games and special missions.
The missions in Bad Company are never the same. The missions range from capturing enemy posts, guiding tanks, swarming a fortress, and destroying machines with C4.
However Bad Company does have its downfalls. On hard mode there are parts that are entirely too easy, or parts that are way too hard for the simple fact that you are ridiculously out numbered. This is overcome by using deaths to your advantage. When you die any enemy that you’ve killed will still be dead. If you were in a vehicle then you’ll respawn in it and it will be at 100%; which is a way to get through a lot of tanks. But there are also part where you are given nothing and expected to fight a tank, At this point I resorted to running around finding vehicles to ram the tank with. I would also run around picking up enemy weapons so I could get grenades to throw at the tank. The AI of your squad B Company isn’t the best, In this same situation Haggard had a rocket launcher. But instead of destroying the tank he was standing out in the open and watching me fight the tank while pointing his rocket launcher at it. Adding to this there were multiple times where when we were fighting soldiers on foot and he would do the same; just stand there staring at them while eating bullets. If hard mode means no one does anything but you then this game nailed it on the head.
Despite the games few flaws it is a memorable gem. It has fun and engaging gameplay along with a rememberable and funny story line. As you Progress with the Sergeant, Sweet Water, and Haggard you become attached to them as they crack jokes, talk about women, and what they’re going to do when they finish their service. I would recommend picking this game up or renting it if anything.
Enjoy some gameplay!
