My Thoughts on BFBC2: Vietnam So far...(EDIT)

-The maps are all really good, but they seem a bit small.
-The Thompson SMG is actually a viable option in Vietnam; I thought it totally blew in the base game.
-Flame thrower isn't too bad so far, but I think it has the potential to get ridiculous as far as spamming over use goes.
-So far flame thrower is definitely NOT as bad Carl Gustav spammers in the base game.
-In contrast to the weapons link above I didn't really notice one gun being better than others.
-Body Armor could be a bit over powered (had a few instance where I shot a dude 5 times with my M21 and he didn't die)
-You start off with everything unlocked which I think is kind of lame, but it'll be good for n00bs because they wont have to suffer with the shit weapons and lack of perks that you would otherwise deal with in the base game.
-Helicopters are more susceptible to small arms and machine gun fire with the lack of tracer darts and AA guns
-Machine guns mounted on the Huey are way better than the miniguns on the blackhawk
-The lack of powerful mounted weapons actually make vehicles like the jeeps and boats a legitimate threat as opposed to being little more than cannon fodder or just a means to travel from A to B in the base game.
-The lack of AA guns and tracer darts means a douche bag in the Huey can hang back strafing in the no-go zone for the defense and just pepper the defending team with rockets and machine gun fire; repairing midair. There was really no way to take this assclown down. I just left.
-PPsh is the new PP2000, but definitely not as bad with it's oober long range sniper accuracy.

Seriously though, if you haven't checked out Bad Company 2 you need to. Especially if you are looking for an alternative to Call of Duty. The different classes really do a decent job at offering varied game play experiences keeping the game fresh. DICE has done a pretty good job at supporting the game, and just to put things into perspective; you are getting a mini expansion with 5 new maps, new weapons, new voice acting, new vehicles, etc. for the same price that you can get 4 maps on Call of Duty.

So make the jump to Bad Company!
