Oh my, I didn't see this topic when it got buried.

Obviously an instant purchase from me, however this really needs to be released before Battlefield 3 comes out. :(

My favorite missions in black ops were the Vietnam ones, and my favorite multiplayer maps were the 'nam ones... so yeah this is a buy for me (hopefully)

There isn't going to be a BC3 it's going to be a BF3 and right now no one knows what era it's going to be set in, but it looks sounds it will be a sequel to BF2.  Supposedly it's going to have information released at the next E3

It appears this user already had access to the PC version and you can tell by its menu.

I've played Harvest Day today and I have to say, it feels like a very different game compared to the other maps in BC2. This one is a lot more open which favors snipers a little bit so I have to say that immediately before people start complaining about the map. I managed to take out 4 tanks in one match thanks to the handy mortar strike so I was enjoying some nice points!

It might be just me but, the new maps have a 'classic' battlefield feel to them. What I mean by that is, you could find very similar layouts and looks in a lot of there other battlefield games. That and all the maps look strikingly similar to the BFBC2 SP maps, especially the snow one I forget the name. I agree with ag, they don't play like any of the shipped bc maps, I've only played Harvest Day and the Snow one so far but I sure hope HD doesn't end up like Isle of Innocents with the attacking team doing nothing but sniping and me going for mcoms -_-

Hahaha That's cause the snow map is taken from BFBC2 single player. Heavy Metal is as well.
But yeah I've only been able to play on Heavy Metal and it is pretty awesome. Nice and huge allowing for multiple flanking directions. No bottlenecks =  :wub:

Vietnam looks amazing in all of that fire but I'm afraid it's going to take a hit on my computer performance. :(

    Ok, so I broke down trying to save money for a new car and bought this. Basically, it is pretty much a totally different game than BF:BC2. The controls and how the gadgets function and stuff are the same. But because of higher bullet damage and no optics for anything other than sniper rifles it plays totally different. Also it's pretty neat in squad deathmatch because it's not just the one vehicle for every map. Some maps have a Huey and others have the boat, which can make for some pretty interesting rounds. Graphics and sounds are of course awesome. Weapon balance is actually surprisingly pretty good. And the music just is the icing on the cake.
    All in all I'd say it's worth the $15 to get practically a whole new game.
Now stop reading this and go out and buy it! NAO!
