Classic BF series - game, strategy and teamplay

I have Battlefield 2 and Bad Company 2 for comparison (bought), and the user rating and Youtube to BF 3. All in all BF2's all business, with the strategy gets a real plus. Bad Company 2 really has a great graphics, but lacks real on teamplay, at strategic overview and also to gameplay, so far with it the feeling is addressed.
BF2 is and remains a strategic shooter.

What is strategy? The right Spawn, the right coverage naturally as (by recognizing where an enemy on the map is), the right class for the purpose that provides the current game situation. Which bases are being attacked, which are empty. Where engages enemy tank, and you can perhaps choose the next spawn the pioneer, and to set the endangered basic anti-tank mines?

This game situation is constantly changing, but not without time-stretched sections that belong together clear. This is an important strategic component of the whole game, that there are certain game sections.
Since it takes as base A or base B, and both are already in various landscape conditions. That alone changed much. Time choosing better the sniper, time antitank shooter or a Special Forces soldiers to perform an enemy vehicle or tank with C4.
Or the enemy has formed at certain bps his attacks and possibly even several tanks on site, and also requires a certain clarity that a notice of these situations. And you should always observe where your team (squad with up to 6 players) is to be so concerted action together, and the squad leader is to sometimes appropriate instructions. Of course, it is in reality often the case that the Suadleader not be the large "number", and not distributed wise instructions. Sometimes there are situations then where although everyone is in a Sqaad, this but by the type of players who come together, a loose pile remains.

When Squadleader can spawn one, and you have to consider whether the squad leader now perhaps squatting somewhere in the boonies, where you can not reach and you better spawn at a base.
All this makes up a need for strategic thinking for me.

The keyboard layout can be freely selected. This is important. In Bad Company 2, for example, I can not prove the return key with jumping because then always a class information is displayed simultaneously. What a stupid bug who is there still not resolved.

There are indeed some mods for Battlefield 2, and the Project Reality is indeed busy, but I can not understand it. There they experienced a lot of confusion, long marches (because the spawns are usually so far away) and therefore simply does not come out feeling on.

Forgotten Hope is a mod that is still okay. There you are fighting with weapons from WW2.

The MOD Alpha Project is such that it is difficult to distinguish enemies from enemy. I mean, I want to play, "kill", have action rather than having to solve a puzzle, who is an enemy and who is friend. Therefore one must look to the uniform, or observe the markings on the car.
Other mods have little to no players online, except Project Peacekeeper (I myself still have to pull in / want).

Most players, however, are in BF2, in the normal version, go.

Many have already written this thing, and I just want to mention that the only shortcoming of this spam is: "Enemy Infantry sighted" ........ Who plays it, it learns quickly, as the speech output annoying soon. And please do not get it, over time you can hear just about gone.

Another shortcoming is the absolutely superfluous shelling (why this game Destroyer?). However, this also help deadlocked game situations again loosen where the enemy ranks only face and wants to change anything, and the game gets by variety that when artillery fire just once half a group of soldiers will be swept away. An overweight of helicopters and jets is a shortcoming. In contrast, you can cause by ground hardly anything. One remedy is the "no-fly server", the 2013 is still well attended.

BF2, which is the result mainly by the simplicity for me fun. This does not mean that it's too easy and too cheap knitted. This is just to strategic elements that you can not just rumballert. There is a certain continuity or development of the game situation within a round which to compare just virtually absent Me Bad Company 2.

People who buy the Complete Edition and Special Forces will play / try, or who buys no Complete Edition and Special Forces wants to play, well, I do not know what Electronic Arts believes what they can afford. I did not make it in weeks of work with all kinds of Problemösungsvorschlägen from the Internet to get SF (Special Forces) running. My advice, dispensed with it and be content when you have the Complete Edition with BF2 and the booster packs (which are integrated with the patch 1.5), for example.

Always nice patch. The patch version 1.41 (on DVD Complete Edition) is not enough, more players can be found with the patch version 1.5.

BF2 is really a classic no frills - the few flaws and defects, after I tried other shooters are to cope. Each shooter has its shortcomings.

Crashes I did not experience. There was a time when I wanted to get up and running Special Forces, where then BF2 no longer went. But I simply do without SF2 and it gunzt 100%.

Only that I did not immediately come to a server when you first start the game. I will be sent back to the server selection, but then it always works. Strange Bug. But it delayed stop only by 5 seconds, that you can play.

Still in 2013, there are enough players online, you have to wait almost regularly to get to his favorite server, or choose an alternate server. There are plenty of choices and I would even say, 20 servers with at least 30 players (ranked) are always to be found.
