    How long will BC2 last on CL?

    The title says it all. I am wondering how long BC2 will last on Cain's Lair.

    I've been out of the FPS genre for quite a while, as I last played with my CLR comrades in the days of BF2/BF2142, but I'd like to get back into it.

    My issue is I don't want to put down cash for a game that will be replaced around here in just a few months time. So I'm just curious if there are any future plans I haven't seen around here.

    Thanks!

    Welcome back Nico.
    It is very hard to say how long it will last. At least until the next big game comes out. And that appears to be a while down the road.
    I hope you come play with us.

        Hard to tell how long it will be around. COD black ops comes out soonish so that is the next possibility. I know i will probably snag that first thing . Nobody knows except for the big man

          about 65 days left till black ops which will have dedicated servers so most likely then, plus the experience you gain in BFBC2 will make you shoot better in any arcade shooter imo....(play more tactically, better accuracy)

            Badcompany is only around $29 these days (like 50 cents a day until blackops, which it sounds like many will not be buying), so it might be worth the practice and fun of playing with CLRs.

              Lasts longer for some than others. I was never a big fan of the game, and really haven't played much lately. The Vent access was just too little, too late.

              Besides, I have at least 20 games in my house I haven't played yet, and want to get through some of those before the wave of good games between now and this time next year. While FPS is still looking pretty thin, just about every other genre will have multiple awesome titles coming soon.

                  Digital downloads at the EA Store site are 40% off for the next two days (ends on the 5th, and not sure when it started), so for $18 I'll go ahead and buy it tonight.

                    Careful with the EA digital download. Read their faqs before you buy from them.

                      Blah their faq are worthless.

                      A while ago, there was a conflict in the way they wrote their policy or what not about redownloading a game after a year.

                      [edit] EA Store
                      EA Store allows users to browse and purchase games from Electronic Arts' catalogs. Instead of receiving a box, disc, or even CD key, purchased software is immediately attached to the user's EA account and is to be downloaded with the corresponding EA Download Manager within 1 year.

                      [edit] Download limitations
                      Users were given one year from the time of purchase to download a game, but there is no longer any reference to this on the EA Store.[5]
                      but I guess there is no longer a issue:

                        Aint Medal of Honor coming out in October? Or is that something I shouldnt have pre-ordered? I mean COD4 was good imho, however, this last one...ruined it. And with all the hacks and no choice of servers yada yada...Not confident in COD series..
                        So what are your thoughts, since I havent heard anyone say anything about it, Medal of Honor..?

                          Metal of Honor is a cheap knockoff of BC2 with mw2 mixed in.

                            It mostly worked out fine. It took over an hour for the confirmation receipt to hit my inbox, which sucked because I was home on my lunch break when I made the purchase, as I was hoping to start my download before I had to go back.
                            So I downloaded it in the morning. It installed and updated just fine.

                            Now actually having success in the game is another matter altogether. I think I went 0-10 in my first round.

                              Don't worry about your score in the first few days...
                              Then you get some better gear, that won't be a problem anymore

                              We have all been there
                              Hope to see ya in there
