None that I know of. Slade made a NIKETALK PC Platoon, though.

Servers down at the moment?

EDIT: Server maintenance. Will end in a few minutes.

Didn't know you could land the jets.

This is funny.

Anyone can join the platoon. The platoon is just an online squad thing with everyone in it. Just like keep stats and see how everyone's doing.

 

[Nawzlew]

Anyone have a problem where after you spawn your HUD disappears? And when you die, you can't spawn cause there's no menu?

 

[witnessmycalm21]

Word. Of course you can. As long as you're NT , you can join.
Just Accepted a heap of apps...

 

[entourage24]

sup folks. just joined the NT squad. gonna play in a few, hit me up. cant play with randoms anymore and tired of loosing

 

[slicknick951]

Ima be on in a hour hit me up it yall tryna play rush slicknick951 xbox 360

 

[witnessmycalm21]

The Lag on Tehran Highway .. Literally makes it unplayable. I got a headache from how bad the lag was. id hit the trigger .. nothing shoots out. If i fire an RPG at a tank. Nothing registers. Lag settles down for a split sec. I end up dead by the tank that had its back towards me..

Not playing it til they address it.

Caspian needs work too... When flying jets your screen stutters for a split second.

 

[2sappy]

That bullseye trophy is hard to get. The part with the 3 squads and the sniper always get us caught.

Still got the run and gun mentality from COD lol but I think I'm starting to get accustomed to the gameplay. Still getting my +!* handed to me but everyone's right, not a lot of people mic up and it's hard to strategize and communicate with teammates. Liking it more and more as I play. Add me though GT: Salbah3

gotta say these snipers starting off are awful.

the 1st US rifle in Bad Company 2 is 10x better than the first 3 combined.

aside from that, Loving it. love the tank machine gunner on all the tanks. racked up so many kills with it.
really starting to enjoy being an engineer, sneaking around and blowing up tanks
