HUH??? Because a producer puts an anti-hack feature in a game you won't buy it??? All it means is that you install the game, and a credit gets taken from the serial. You have up to 10 installs available. And if you're smart you uninstall the game which credits the serial back, so you in a sense can install this indefinitly. Only probelm is if you crash your hard drive 10 times - and if you're that inept at sellecting hard drives or are that hostile to them - tough.

As far as I'm concerned any well implemented anti0hack/cheat system should be implemented on all games - then games might be purchased for half what they cost now.


There are far better ways to stop piracy instead of putting this "spyware" on to peoples machines - encrypted USB key would be one where you can only play the game with the USB attached.

Look's like a nice game to play, but BF series are well known as hacker series because there isn't a server with no hackers.

Btw any word about Coop mode?

Looks like us PC gamers will have the 5th map in Vietnam soon:

Taken from here: http://www.pcgamer.com/2010/12/30/pc-gamers-are-winning-the-battlefield-bad-company-2-vietnam-platform-war/

"When DICE launched the Battlefield: Bad Company 2 Vietnam expansion they also pulled the trigger on a race to unlock a hidden fifth map. The challenge was for players on each platform to perform 69 million team actions. DICE have thrown up the tally so far, and PC gamers have performed more team actions than the Xbox 360 and PS3 combined.

A team action is any action that a player takes to help out team mates, including throwing down medipacks, ammo crates, marking enemies on the area map, repairing vehicles and reviving fallen allies. So far PC gamers have amassed more than 60 million team actions, compared to 31 million on the Xbox 360 and 23 million on the Playstation 3.

The map is called Operation Hastings, and is a remixed and updated version of an old map that originally appeared in Battlefield Vietnam. The map will not unlock on each platform until that platform has reached the 69 million team action mark. It looks as though PC players will get access to the map way before the consoles do."

For those of you having crashing issues with BC2, check these links out. Apparently something to look for is sound drivers causing issues - go figure.
