Karl-Magnus Troedsson Talks Battlefield: Bad Company 2 At GamesCom 2009

but that is what is good, same goes when an assault guy is mowing into a specialist and the specialist turns around and gets 3 head shots and your done. you just suck at the game and need to get your game up. Battlefield is one of those games that grows on you. I hated it at first, but then when i played and played and played it, i got better and learned tactics on what to do in those situations.
rules: if you are support, dont rush, stay back, you can mow into people from as far away as your base(on some maps) or 200-300 feet. Use your mortar strike, if you have a teammate support guy, you can betray him to get his pack, and switch between your pack and his pack and keep dropping mortar strikes one after another. all from 500 feet away. Same goes with the sniper and the LGM(laser guided misssle),
rule 1: if you are assault rush but be aware cause if you run into a specialist or demo you may not survive, especially if it the latter. stay at a medium distance, this is where you shine, cause your gun is more accurate at a distance than a demo or specialist is, and you can always pull out your epipin(medi-pin) to restore your health, and don't forget to use YOUR GRENADES.
rule 2: specialists rush and don't stop rushing, you are the guys that can kill the demo-men and come out alive, you can kill fast and extremely accurate up-close. setup traps, use your c4, when you get into a base especially if you aren't marked for every enemy to see, plant c-4 on vehicles, on staircases, on the crate(gold) make them come after you in their base, not the other way around. AND ALWAYS ASSIST YOUR DEMO COUNTER PART, TAG EVERYTHING, AND I MEAN EVERYTHING, don't stop tagging until you run out of tracers.
rule 3: demo men, work with you specialist counter parts, use those rpgs, especially when it comes to helicopters, if a specialist tags one, take it down, this is how you keep a great helicopter pilot out of the air. i know guys that can go a whole game with out dying cause they are great pilots and a good support friend to repair their vehicle, people can be unstoppable if you don't team up with the specialist. RPGS, use them, lead your shot, then lead it some more, that is what it takes to take out a vehicle that moves in 3 dimensions, you have to look at his(the copters) patterns, what does he do, how does he turn around and come back, learn his patterns and put your rpg is his pattern. Also, tanks are a big advantage in some maps, take them out, you can't rely on the howitzer to do it, plant mines, plant them in spots you know they will drive, don't always do it on the roads, plant them in the grass, plant them near places they wouldnt expect to have one, and them use your rpg to make them run over them.
rule 4: support, this is what you should be doing at all times when you are support class, support your team, that means healing them, constantly, i can't tell you how many times i am in a game and i run up to a support team mate with 2 health and he looks at me with a blank stair and doesn't heal me and runs away, and end up having to betray him to heal myself. heal your team as much as you can, this will earn you a friend request i promise, if you heal your team you will have a better chance of winning. always use the m60, it is the best lmg, yeah it is slow, but you aren't supposed to be rushing, stay back and mow into them with it, it kills vehicles quick, and people quicker. learn to love it(tip: crouch while firing from far) and always go for headshots, m60 bullets to the head can bring an enemy to his knees quick, and last but not least, repair your teams vehicles, even if they aren't in your squad. now go out and have fun.
