Trusting everyone has their copy now, so let the fun begin tonight.

Having now installed and played BF:BC2 and just completed the 20,000,000th prestige level on 'MW2 Washing up' level, this momentus feat caused me to ponder about 'control' on these PC games.
BF:BC2 is the first game for many years that has acknowledged and provides options for a joystick! As a result, I'm asking - is/are FPS multiplayer games more manageable with a keyboard/mouse setup or a controller or a joystick - these days?
Personally I always used a joystick until PC games required additional patches or too much tweaking to be worthwhile, then I returned to the keyboard/mouse setup....until now.
A controller or joystick always seemed to be far more manageable, more controllable; the keyboard/mouse combination works fine, but for 'map-ability' and 'reaction speed' a single unit seemed superior. As such, I may now search the attic for my MS Sidewinder or Saitek whatever and re-install them for both MW2 and BF:BC2!
So, do PC players of MW2 use the keyboard/mouse combination or a sneaky.......XBox controller......:-) ?
yeah. I've downloaded it and played a quick session without even knowing the tech tree. I raged quit when i realised i didn't know how to build Vehicles (built the requisities, but couldn't find the building to build!). So when i started a quick attack, he came back with siege tanks and soon other stuff.
I promptly raged quit and decided to look things up before playing.
Its pretty embrassing to rage quit your first PRACTICE GAME to decide where you stand in the ladder.

Must admit SC that I'm getting bored with it at the moment - it's the repetitive nature of the maps - some I absolutely loath now, but I still like others. Having said that, it's who you play with and how the game pans out I suppose. In the majority of mercenary team deathmatch games I play, there always seems to be a heavy dominance of prestige players with very few level 50-70 players:-) Think I'll alternate with BC2 for awhile.

Hi SB - installed BF:BC2 last night and started the single player campaign. Not too bad at the moment - feels linear but time will tell. Controls need a 'personal' tweak though. Not been able to access multiplayer yet, but will be interesting to see what it's like.
:-)
GAH.

I have to say I do enjoy the game, but mainly when I'm on a level where I'm able to get up all my Killstreaks several times, nice streaks, a decent KD etc
There's still plenty of times I run into ridiculous teams of people on the 10th prestige etc, or get started halfway into a level only to be instantly shot by someone's killstreak reward in the sky. Annoying, and makes me quit that game instantly.. sometimes to be put straight back into the same game!

Do you repeatedly shoot at green Harriers as well,then scream that they are not falling out of the sky !.
I couldn't get annoyed with him,he was ace.He was giving it 1000% and epically failing.Would have probably preferred it if he was on the other team though !.Anyway,everyone on there had fun and it was a refreshing change not to play with idiots shouting 'gay' and 'retard' every 30 seconds.
