The developers of Battlefield: Bad Company prove once again that they have a lot of humor with this new video done with the game's engine and gently mocking Metal Gear Solid 4.
BattleField is pretty good with the destructible environments and all its pretty crazy, you don't see many games now a days with that level of destruction in detailed environments. I played the demo and tried to fight a tank while hiding behind a house that I watched deteriorate with each shot till I had to run for it there really was no place 2 hide lol. Funny stuff.
It's not that you can put this trailer under "good advertising"
Laughing with a game that overclasses you on allmost every aspect!
Not smart from DICE imo!

I like the cheeky style they went for with bad comany, nice to see a war game that doesn't take itself too seriously. :)

Why would they mock with MGS?

For you serious guys: MGS deserves all the shit it gets, and it's way too little. People poop their pants over production value and Kojima, not the actual games.
Also it was kind of funny ^^
Too bad the game itself seems to be a bit meh? I haven't tried it but i haven't heard anything good so far.
Boring unfunny and mocking a game EA could never get close to achiving so instead they mock a game that they could never top. Well done EA even more petty than normal go back to try buying rockstar
lol.. some people have serious issues with their "joke-detection" function lol.. stop complaining and enjoy the vid for what its meant to be :) I mean honestly.. some people on this forum behave as if Snake was their own bloody father.. this is entertainment, deal with it or even better; go to EA/Dice and complain directly to them. Then take their level of interest in what you are saying to them and scale it down to a 100. That should approximately give you the correct amount of interest that this forum pays to your posts... jeeez.. seriously..

Exactly. Why are people getting so defensive over a video that is intended as a joke? It's a bit pathetic really.
I actually love the demo and still play it regularly, ahead of COD 4.
my thoughts exactly! super funny stuff, like to see what they aiming at here, not taking themselves so seriously, Three Kings kinda thing. Looking forward to play this game in a couple of weeks.
And man, the animation of the characters is insane. Granted it's motion capture, but it translates very well to the models, they look so damn beliveable (tons of natural secondary motions and subtle facial expressions when they move and talk....)
And to the serious people around here...relax it's all tongue in cheek, don't get so defensive...

HILLARIOUS! The shorts by DICE for this game have been amazing with great humor.

First off, the game is made by DICE which has a number of huge hits to their resume. So all the "hate" talk about how DICE could only wish to make a game as good as MGS... they have. Twice. Heck, BF1942 and BF2 blow away any MP offering in a MGS game.
Immitation is the sincerest form of flattery. The fact DICE took the time to do a short poking fun at one of the admittadly cheeky parts of MGS shows how big and well known MGS is. Obviously it does MGS no harm and it was... you know... funny.

Commented on 2008-06-17 11:06:47Seriously, after that ad I downloaded the demo. It certainly worked to get noticed. I hear the MP is quite good.
