Dated: Bad Company 2 Vietnam DLC & VIP Map Pack 7

[DoctorFinger]

After a bit of a delay, EA and DICE have announced release dates for the Battlefield: Bad Company 2 - Vietnam expansion, as well as the VIP Map Pack 7.

First on deck is the VIP Map Pack 7, which is free to anyone with a VIP Code. This pack actually includes new MP maps: Oasis & Harvest Day from the original Bad Company, and Heavy Metal anc Cold War from the BC2 campaign.

Next on the docket is the Vietnam expansion for BC2. This expansion includes a single player campaign as well as more new MP maps. It will be available on Steam and at the EA store on December 18, and at at all other digital outlets - such as PSN and XBL - on December 21. The Vietnam expansion will cost 1200 MSP/$15.

Very cool. I am playing #2 right now. Its a good bit of fun.

Too late for me. I had a lot of fun with the game, but it took too long to get this out. I hope that they learn for their next game.

If someone picks it up, I would be interested in hearing what they think of it.

looks like i'm going to have to reinstall this. oasis was awesome map. too bad they won't convert classic battlefield maps like Wake Island.

For anyone thinking of Playing right now, I would suggest putting that off till you hear from EvenBalance. They sent out a massive ban list to which a LOT of people are complaining BS on Steam, EvenBalance, BC2, and pbbans forums.

I hope to never play Wake Island again! It's been converted enough IMO.

Too long? What kind of install do you have? I don't understand.

Poor wording on my part. It has been too long since BC2 came out for me to want to buy DLC for it. I loved the game, but it has been collecting dust for a while and I don't think the DLC would be worthwhile for me personally.

Oh gotcha. I am not to into the multi but loving the single. So I thought maybe it was a server thing or something. I totally understand.

It's hard as hell and I am just now getting used to things overall. Some of the maps are quite vicious such as Hill137, very tough for the attackers but authentic in that respect.

I like the weapons fine but it's odd not having a red dot and other modern tools of warfare. It took getting used to but I have no problems anymore as I've always liked iron sights. The vehicles are fine and handle as they should, it's also nice being able to damage a chopper with a machinegun.

There is no leveling that is seperate from BC2. I am 37 in both games and have all weapons unlocked. The flamethrower is pretty awesome and very usefull in some maps.

I am enjoying myself but am a diehard Battlefield fan. As stated I still play every week when I'm not busy being a dad or closing all those damn TF2 events.
