Bad Company's party system

I'm at the lake with no internet or 360 til this saturday night.

whats bad about coral sea? don't you like dogfighting?

The Fake Shemp · « **Reply #244 on:** July 20, 2009, 02:21:10 PM »

Dogfighting is neat when there's a BATTLEFIELD involved. If I wanted to play a flight game, I'd buy Crimson Skies.

Kestastrophe · « **Reply #245 on:** July 21, 2009, 10:34:04 AM »

Anyone from Boresquad going to be on tonight?

The Fake Shemp · « **Reply #246 on:** July 21, 2009, 01:16:17 PM »

YOU HAVE MY WRENCH

Eel O'Brian · « **Reply #247 on:** July 21, 2009, 01:37:41 PM »

I'll be on, sucking it up as per usual.

YES BORESQUAD REUNION

Kestastrophe · « **Reply #251 on:** July 21, 2009, 08:31:42 PM »

I will be online around 9 eastern

FatalT · « **Reply #252 on:** July 21, 2009, 09:32:27 PM »

30 more minutes then, I'll try to get on too.

Eel O'Brian · « **Reply #253 on:** July 21, 2009, 09:40:31 PM »

yeah, i'll be there at 9

The Fake Shemp · « **Reply #254 on:** July 22, 2009, 12:20:43 AM »

Boresquad weekdays are pretty fun. We should do this as other games come along.

Battlefield: Bad Company is only $19.99 at Best Buy. The second Bad Company comes out at the end of September too if you guys are really digging 1943.

The Fake Shemp · « **Reply #256 on:** July 22, 2009, 12:30:18 AM »

I am not confident that it will be released this September and that is kind of a wait and see title for me.

Eel O'Brian · « **Reply #257 on:** July 22, 2009, 02:17:53 AM »

i went and played some coral sea under my secret xbl account afterwards, and ended up actually liking it

it's really helping sharpen my flying skills, and i averaged about about 100 points per match even though i didn't get very many kills (tip: keep flying around capture points)

we'll have to do a boresquad "black sheep squadron" run on coral sea one night, parachuting onto enemy carriers and wreaking havoc

Agreed. It is always much more fun to play with you guys rather than random matchmaking. We had some tough matches last night

I'm down.

I'll be on tonight between 9 PM to 11 PM if anyone wants to play. If not, I will probably write and watch Netflix.

Kestastrophe · « **Reply #260 on:** July 22, 2009, 06:31:56 PM »

Sweet. I will also be on, probably around 8 or so

Eel O'Brian · « **Reply #261 on:** July 22, 2009, 11:15:18 PM »

What happened to you, Will? Kestastrophe and I had the best game I've personally had since I've been playing right after you disconnected. That match was reeeeeallly close, too, both teams just had a sliver left on the tickets bar.

Kestastrophe · « **Reply #262 on:** July 22, 2009, 11:19:20 PM »

wow, epic match.

Eel-16 kills, 500 points

Eel O'Brian · « **Reply #263 on:** July 22, 2009, 11:23:40 PM »

Kestastrophe, 16 kills, 580 points

Had awful connection problems

Brehvolution · « **Reply #265 on:** July 23, 2009, 10:35:06 AM »

2 more days and I'll be back to play.

Eel O'Brian · « **Reply #266 on:** July 23, 2009, 11:15:44 AM »

I talked my two IRL friends into sharing this with me on PS3 (figured out what the connection problem was - totally my fault, will correct my previous statement on the next borecast), so I purchased it on PSN last night. If anyone wants to squad up there, my PSN username is EelOBrian.

Holy crap, could it break one million units sold this year?

They've already made $9 million?

I wonder how much it cost to develop. Probably a hundred dollars.

The Fake Shemp · « **Reply #269 on:** July 23, 2009, 04:56:48 PM »

Eel, don't tell me you're going to start playing the PS3 version over the 360 version. Don't breakup the Boresquad!

Eel O'Brian · « **Reply #270 on:** July 23, 2009, 05:02:18 PM »

not at all, i only caved on the PS3 version because my share was $5

they'll never play it, just like warhawk

The Fake Shemp · « **Reply #271 on:** July 24, 2009, 11:25:50 PM »

just taking a break, be back on in a couple of minutes

i came in 2nd in a coral sea match

Eel O'Brian · « **Reply #274 on:** July 25, 2009, 01:51:57 AM »

yeah, i played a couple games of coral sea and then turned it off for the night

your setting was on "away" when i first got on and i figured i'd just catch you next time

Andowsky · « **Reply #275 on:** July 25, 2009, 09:33:14 AM »

27-0 game on Guadalcanal, sniping bitches left and right.

Wonder if any further expansions are in the works. Surely so with all the money this one made. Maps are getting a bit dull. Guada and Iwo Jima are good but Coral Sea is full of douchebags and Wake Island is boring.

Eel O'Brian · « **Reply #276 on:** July 25, 2009, 12:02:22 PM »

I can't see them letting those potential dollars get away from them, and I'd be surprised if there weren't at least some sketchy plans for DLC made before the game launched. If even half the people who buy the game buy maps, that would still be an enormous amount of profit for a nominal investment of time and resources.

I might not be on the Boresquad tonight, a friend is in town.

Brehvolution · « **Reply #277 on:** July 25, 2009, 04:01:00 PM »

I'll be on later tonight now that I'm back from the lake.

Don't worry Eel. If you guys are still playing this in the fall, I will teach you the meaning of "suck". You've never met a man who can look at the sky and then the ground so many times while trying to hit a target in between as myself.
