    My favorite memories on ps2 were: covering vehicles in an absurd amount of c4 (i think you could throw like 12 charges?) and carbombing the enemy team. Also, you could chat with enemies in proximity I think because I have memories of getting sniped, hunting down the sniper, and chatting with him for a bit before stabbing him.

    • @JMMREVIEW
      @JMMREVIEW  6 ปีที่แล้ว +12

      Awesome memories Devon, I didn't know you played BF2MC! 12 C4 sounds about right I think you could lay 9 landmines, after that they would disappear. Definitely remember being able to talk to the other team, I don't remember what it was called in the settings but there was an option to turn that off.

    • @Whatisright
      @Whatisright 5 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      That was the standard operating procedure in games like capture the flag. C4 charges on the jeep and then you drive like hell towards the enemy flag, jump out and detonate it. Flag was always protected by mines and C4.

    2005 era was honestly the peak of videogames in my opinion. So many classic titles. The games nowadays look nicer but are worse in every other way. You nailed it in this video. Silent ghost-towns of people grinding unlockables and other trash. No one working together and playing for fun. It's a damn shame. You never realize when you are living in the golden age until after it is over. :(

    This is by far my favorite game I have EVER played. It's imperfections almost made it even better. The glitches were hilarious and added another level of knowledge and skill to the game in their own right. This game was the perfect combination of skill-based-play, simplicity, and pure goofiness.
    What are your favorite memories from this game?
    My favorite memory is when I once got killed by a barrel that was launched so high into the air by an artillery strike on back-stab that I noticed it as a spec in the sky and had several seconds to observe it and ask my friends in the room what that spec was. The barrel grew in size faster than I could respond and the next thing I knew I was dead watching a barrel bounce away. My friends and I probably laughed for a solid 30 minutes as I had a well-documented history of dying in the most sporadic ways. Another time, my friend managed to dodge a ground to air missile in his helicopter. I was running under him in a valley and the missile hit me.
    I can specifically remember the noName clan and the WarDog clans although there were so many more. My friends and I made Duh Presidents Clan and all of our names were U.S. President related. We had "I like Ike" (Eisenhower), H0nest Ab3, Obama, Clinton, President Nixon, and so many more. We only played 1 map in ranked (Honor) and mastered every detail of this one map to the point where we could compete with even the top 3 clans. Our highest ranking ever was Rank 3 but we consistently floated in the top 20.

      dude i remember loving this game to death, remember the menu music on the xbox 360 dude? it was incredible, i dont know if its the same menu music as the xbox/ps2 version. Also i have great memories trying to rank up in this game because it was based on a "point to minute" system, where the more points you gain on your average minute determines your rank. I also remember Bridge too far and Backstab. The campaign and being able to switch soldiers was freaking awesome. So many great memories with this game it was actually ahead of its time.

    I loved bridge too far, the Chinese team was OP though. Their heli had more seats and their jeeps had grenade launchers. I remember several games having the American team trapped to their base, circling them with the heli. If the game were pretty competitive a friend and I would take the jeep and seek up on tanks and destroy them with the grenade launcher, lol they usually couldn't react fast enough. The nostalgia is real man.

    I played SOOOOO much of this game on PS2. I was obsessed with BF2 at the time but too young/broke for a PC so I watched dozens of hours of BF2 tactics and implemented them into this game and remember pulling off stuff I’m sure most players had never thought of. The desert/city map and Chinese city map were my absolute favorite. I remember learning how to dodge the sniper AA Designator missile and getting called a cheater . One of my favorites to this day.

    Thank you so much for making this video. Every year around this time, I get the urge to revisit this game. Play a match of Hidden, Deadly Pass, Backstab or the other amazing maps this game offered. I'd genuinely take a week off of work if the online game was ever restored and playable. Your video, while informative and appreciated also made me so damn sad. I miss this game so much. When I found out the servers for the Xbox 360 version were shutting down I played as much as I could until they were shut down and when I loaded the game up knowing it would say "Could not connect to the EA Servers" my heart broke, even knowing that message would pop up. I wish I had the technical know how to mod the game to work and build a community around it again, but I do not. Maybe, just maybe, one day EA will recognise the impact this game had an re-release it but I do not have high hopes. If you're ever looking for someone that shares your same passion for this game, hit me up.

I've met people on their that I still play with today. I loved the action never a dull moment .. my favorite map was bridge too far capture the flag was nice, Russian border was another fave .. I always used the sniper which came with a nice quick scope glitch and no scope diving😀... I remember late nights trying get the score up more and more running flags.. base camping in helicopter trying to dodge laser strikes ...doing backflips and barrel rolls in said heli .. joining a server with knives only watching people run around on say Black Gold trying to knife eachother ...

    The fact you could sit by the ammo refill box and cover your car with c4, then drive it in somewhere, jump out, let it roll into the enemy then detonate the c4. I think you could get like 15 on it if you stood by the ammo refill box, otherwise it was like 4.

So many memories on backstab backflipping choppers, bridge too far land mines on the ramps, Russian border etc. This was my first battlefield experience, and the first online game I played for a long period of time. It blew my mind seeing all these people playing together on one map, as I will always be a console guy. I still play BF to this day and it remains my go to online shooter despite some ups and downs. I wish they would remaster some of these maps for newer titles. Cheers man, this game was truly a game changer for me personally. It did so many things first for me all those years ago.

    Thank you SO MUCH for doing this! My favorite all time online fps; nothing has been as balanced and nothing with as good as a community. This was my first game where I hit leader boards on and would run into the same group of people both on my team and the other team. Not to mention, SUCH a great soundtrack.
    It's such a crime that of all the Battlefield games mentioned in the gaming community, this one, a game with such fantastic online experience and influenced online gaming heavily is almost always completely left out of the conversation.
    I never had a capture card so I just recorded games with a camcorder on the TV and actually have a couple clips. One on my channel of sniping a HELO pilot and jumping in his chopper as it hit the ground and evading an enemy rocket while flying away. One of my favorite moments and actually got it on film.

    This was the game that got me started with online gaming. I am 39 years old. I can remember this game like it was yesterday. My favorite tactic was to take a fast jeep to the enemy base and plant land mines under every tank. Also on this certain map I remember using a jeep to rush to the anti-air Bradley, that was a little further up at the start of the game. I knew the enemy would fly their helicopters over a base at the start of the match, so I would rush to it right away. I would shoot them down every single time. This was much more fun than the Battlefield they have today. I have a great memory of using the automatic grenade launcher that was mounted in a bunker up on a hill. You could use it for indirect fire into the town below. What a great game! Thanks for making this video!

      Hey nice to meet an old school Battlefield player, the map with the anti-air 30mm tank you are describing was called Backstab it was one of the most played maps. I think the map with the mounted grenade launcher you are describing was called Deadly Pass. Thanks for sharing your memories, I have a bunch of other battlefield videos if you have time to check them out.

R0manL3gion . I remember when your team would spawn and everyone ran to the helicopters and cars, and it would suck if you didnt get one. so some people would troll and put landmines underneath the cars/tanks.

Many great memories, including with some of the less popular maps like Dammage and The Nest, and of course the clan system. Missile Crisis was one of the best maps if the side storming the gate managed to captured it, but was one of the worst if it didn't haha

Great times, I got it Christmas of 2005, and played for years even after getting newer consoles and PCs, it was just so great. Great console game, maps are amazing. I would love a remaster that allows for 32 players, the maps are the perfect size.

  • @foxbat203
    @foxbat203 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Awesome to see there is still some dedication to preserving the game. No Battlefield title before or since had the same feel to. I remember sniping pilots out of scout helicopters on Spec Ops map or getting into ridiculous knife fights in the forests on that map. Glitching through the floor on The Nest, still know where the OG glitch spots were and Deadly Pass just before the bridge. I recall the final days on the Xbox 360 title as-well, both for the boosting community and hold-outs from the PS2 days. I recall my first boosting experience, unlocking medals with a random playing by shooting my machine gun into the ground to direct them on the PS2. Joining a match on Eagle Eye to find everyone was in a clan match and getting kicked. Creating troll accounts to C4-jeep friendly tanks when people got too aggressive on the team. Annoying the enemy team by camping vehicle spawns with mines like the parking structure on Bridge too Far or the US main base on the snow map. Closing the blast doors on Missile Crisis and blocking attacker tanks from entering and Black Gold holding off US attack waves or sniping snipers in the control tower. Then getting hammered by helos as you hid in the containers hoping the laser designator would work.
    Definitely say Spec Ops, Bridge Too Far, Russian Border and Backstab are the highlights. Honor also holds a special place, so much vehicular chaos on that map.

    Thanks so much for making this video! This game was my life in middle school. Played with my middle school best friend and a few others we became friends with in game, made a clan and all that. I had no idea the PS2 servers were available until 2014, I tried to play online sometime in 2007/2008 and couldn't connect so I assumed they pulled the plug on it sometime around then. Can't talk about this game enough. Clan wars, epic moments, I remember there being a medal for getting 30 kills in a match without dying and I went 29/0 one match and almost got that 30, was even complimented by some of the guys in the server. Was amazing.
    That being said, the game was great but definitely not perfect. While it was great to not have the annoyances you mentioned, there were still balance issues. The sniper class was broken, some of the different weapons had faster and slower reloads depending on what team you were on which was very strange, the "dolphin diving" people would do because you were invulnerable during the short diving animation to go prone, and there were tons of clipping exploits like being able to fall through the floor and still shoot out at people but they couldn't shoot you. Towards the end of the game's life you always had at least one of these guys and it was a shame.
    That being said it will go down as being an absolutely near and dear game to me and it is completely sad that there are so little videos of it in it's hay day and that you can't even revisit the maps just to wander around in at all. Thanks again for making this video!
