Okay so that's the original Battlefield: Bad Company, but meh. I always loved that line in multiplayer (Even if it meant it as a loss).
So I finally got my ass around to playing Bad Company 2's demo and it is simply put, good. I'm curious as to when a Battlefield Game became more realistic feeling than a Call of Duty game because that's sort of backwards to what I normally think of.
You can't knock down buildings flat like they promised, though that could be the available weapons available on the one map... well available. The the armed UAV is hilarious, Sure it's an RC Helicopter, but it comes with Hellfire Missiles and a .50 Cal just to further harass your enemy. And marker lighting an enemy sniper out of spite just to watch a missile home in on him is still as funny as it was in the old game. The voices actually feel like they're worried about what's happening around them.
On the downside, the controls felt a little floaty, though that could just be an issue with the demo or even my friend's controller since I still haven't just downloaded the demo for some reason.
All in all, I look forward to the day when Modern Warfare 2 is just a footnote in my gaming history. I'm tired of the game's lazily balanced bullshit. And no, it's not just that I don't take cover and crouch enough thanks, I have my nuke title for a reason. (Call backs, yay)
Also. The game on Monday will in fact be La-Mulana. I'll offer up a few links along with the announcement journal so that if for some reason you decide to destroy your sanity along with me, it will be possible. Have fun with the Flare Gun's puzzle.
I'll be posting some random artwork up here tomorrow probably. I've been working on modifying all of my brush tips, it's taking a while but it's benefiting my artwork quite a bit. I thought of taking some random potshot jokes here, but I couldn't come up with a good enough one. Oh well.

...the inability to knock down buildings makes me sad in the pants.

You can still knock massive holes and some buildings can be blown up entirely. I know on the demo map, the Guard Houses can be taken apart entirely at least.
