Good game for online experience

I bought this game exclusively for playing online. The actual game experience is very good, however I rated the game overall at 4 stars because of network issues that continually pop up online. Online play is frequently interruped by "network errors" in addition it is not easy to set up a server to host online play.
That being said, if there are no errors, the game is great. Voice communication is clear, and the graphics are good. In addition there are may opportunities to play different characters. It is not simply a "shoot em" game. I love the opportunities to parachute, drive jeeps/tanks, fly helicopters, etc. In addition the playing venues are large with little risk of going "out of bounds".
Enjoy!
Decent

If you're getting an online shooter for your kid, go with this. There's no real strategy needed in the multiplayer, and the community will be a lot better than say, SOCOM's on a little kid. The whole game is too easy. Too easy to get kills, too easy to die, too easy to fly helicopters, too easy to find your opponents. There is no stealth in this game. You have a giant red dot over your head to any enemy near you, and the same of them. This feature destroys any strategy that could've been involved. In an effort to balance the power of various troop kits, snipers were given tracer rounds which (combined with the red dot) guarantee their death as soon as they shoot a competent player. The game is also plagued by glitchers and team-killers (amazingly, the server doesn't kick teamkillers until a score of -30; even terrible players who misplace a massive artillery strike will only get to half that without intentionally killing teammates). Network errors preventing the creation of rooms or disconnecting players are not unheard of.
All in all, it's a decent game--but it has glaring flaws which seriously hinder gameplay. Get it for the kids, but seasoned gamers should go with the latest installment of SOCOM (especially if they value stealth).

These games he really does love them. He enjoys going up in rank as well. He loves the challenge and shootiing the enemies. They sound so real and bloody as well. All I need now is the other game I ordered for him that he hasn't received yet.

I bought this game when it first came out for the PS2 and hated playing the campaign. But wow did the fun begin when I played online. I haven't stopped playing it(year and a half later). Over the past month I bought an X-box360 and this was the first game I bought. I will admit that online is difficult when you first start playing....but after awhile you start to get better and before you know it....BANG...your hooked. I can't say enough about this game and I have been dying to see the next version and will not hesitate to purchase it when it does release. I am also surprised by both the amount of people who haven't heard about it as well as the amount that have not played it online. It is a must buy if you like war games with lots of first person shooter and military action!!!

There is no strategy to this game. I have not played past Battlefield titles so have no frame of reference but this game is strictly run around and shoot as much as you want. While it is totally fun to play that way at times, I would like to have some thought involved strategy.
Good game come draw backs though

ok. two things. First is that its a much better game than the past battlefield games which are pointless and stupid. The reason its better is that this game has missions you must play in order to go on to the next mission. Its definetly a game of stragety. second thing is that its difficult to know what the controls are and manuvering(crouching, turning, moving, ect) is slow. Buy the game if you like stragety games and shooting games.
Great game

This is a great game period. It has its flaws, but they arent anywhere big enough for you not to enjoy this game. Story mode is kind of easy, but online play is awesome!! So even if you dont like the story mode, the online play is already better. So this is a good game. BUY IT.
great online game.......

I had mixed feelings towards this game, ill start off with the game its self. I would only buy this game if you have online, and if you dont have online and you think that the singler player stinks then your missing out. What im trying to say is that you cant judge this game just on the singler player, which by the way is so in so. If you dont play this game online then your missing out big time!!!! The graphics are some of the better graphics you will see on the ps2. Another thing is that the game feels just a little to arcadly for my taste after playing socom. The levels are great but people are to crazy over badstab, because after the level for the 10th time in a row it will get pretty boring. But all the levels are fun.The game gets just a little boring after awhile but still fun. Buy this game for 29.99 nothin else, a game store tryed to sell this game to me for 50 dollars.
THE BEST ONLINE GAME FOR PS2

First off i need to say that you cant judge this game by its campaign mode at all. Campaign mode is basically just a warmup training session for online and man is online play awesome. If you have high speed internet and a ps2 this game is a must have. Online play is very open ended and you can do whatever you want from carbombing enemies(<--fun as hell) to sniping and driving tanks/helicopters. The levels are well designed and very strategic, im still finding new tricks and secrets in each. 2 player split screen would be nice but overall still a very excellent game. BUY IT NOW AND GO ONLINE
Battlefield 2 Modern Combat is a great game unlike Call of Duty.

This is a great addition to the Battlefield family. I been playing this game for a couple of days and it makes me feel like I'm playing Counter Strike only better I don't Gamespot's review on this game by saying it's too much of an arcade game. I don't think so you get to switch from soilder to soldier thats not a arcade feature. I recomened this game to anyone who military, shooter and strategy.
