I've actually noticed very little lag, what time were you playing?

The sevrers are dedicated EA severs and I've found the matchmaking pretty good, probably why the found the need not to include connection status.

Either you were put in a forign server or your connection was dodgy.

Remember BF:BC2 uses accurate bullet physics so rounds take a few millieseconds to reach their target, especially when sniping.

Probably my connection playing up, I guess. It does seem to be pretty variable. At times it was useless though. Walk through a door then find yourself walking into a wall five metres away useless. The joys of wifi. I'm surprised there's no connection status info anywhere though. Sad

How'd you come by UAVs btw? Is it a kill streaks thing like MW?

There is a UAV station dotted around the map (by your base)

Kill streaks aren't really that important in Bad Company 2 as it's a more objective based game.

Just sent you a friend request.

Played for an hour last night, starting to quite like how unaware the majority of players playing recon are (easy kills), got quite a few hand gun kills last night (and a defib kill).

Although joined a match later on to find I the rest of my squad were all recon and were miles away from the M-Com stations Evil or Very Mad

Ah cool, I'll keep an eye out for that. So far I've only played the capture the flag mode, or whatever it's called.

UAV is a computer terminal with a joystick that you use. It spawns a mini helecopter next to it that you pilot. Its shown on the map by a blue square.

Just seen this video:

Did you know the russian HIND helicopter seats 4 people, so if you have an engineer in the back he can repair the chopper midflight.

Same with passengers in the blackhawk.

I've only flown one of them once and it was mental. I ended up being a taxi and just taking people from one side of the map to the other. Got plenty of points though.

Good, it'll count for something then. Thumbs Up Unlike CoD, where the whole system was hacked to pieces and everyone was a mega-armed general overnight. Rolling Eyes

It is far to easy to level up on mw2 without having to hack it. I went from this:
