Amazon.de bietet das Spiel zwar für 12,99 EUR an, aber da es ein USK18 Titel ist, fallen bei Amazon + 5,- EUR Versand an!

12,99 (Spiel) + 5,- (Versand, da USK18 Titel) = 17,99 EUR

Wer sich Vietnam einfach im EA Store herunterlädt oder bei Mediamarkt, Saturn, Müller, GameStop, World-of-Video & Co. holt, der zahlt, da kein Versand anfällt, nur 12,99 EUR.

danke Dir für den Hinweis!

Dragon Age II muß ich dann noch stornieren.

Preis bei Amazon doch tatsächlich um 4 Cent gefallen --> 12,95

Wobei.... bei einer Sammelbestellung mit Kumpels zusammen fallen die einmaligen €5,- kaum noch ins Gewicht. Hab mit 2 Kumpels ne 3er Bestellung laufen. Die 1,65 EUR Mehrkosten pro Spiel kann man getrost verschmerzen. Würde ich in die Stadt fahren, um mir das Spiel zu holen, würde mich das Parken allein wohl schon mehr kosten. B)

PS: Frage mich gerade, warum Vietnam nicht bei Amazon UK & US angeboten wird...

Moin Soldaten,

[Blond3r 62]

Und zu guter Letzt noch ein zweites mal Impressionen von der Map Khao San Temple (eng. Cao Son Temple).

[ManeaterMV 0]

schon komisch, wenn Charlie mit nem M16 durch die Gegend rockt

[-=Punkbuster=- 166]

Kann man jemand die Gametrailers-Links raussuchen für die fünf Videos weiter oben? Muss man ja nicht über YouTube nehmen, wenn es ohehin nur GT ist, das neu hochgeladen wurde....

[Blond3r 62]

Roger that! B)

[Blond3r 62]

Hier mal ein wenig Offtopic Freunde, obwohl, irgendwie kommt auch hier BFBC2 Vietnam mit vor.

[Blond3r 62]

Mahlzeit Soldaten,

Anbei ein grösseres Preview der russischen Kollegen von Kanobu zu dem in 3 Tagen erscheinenden Battlefield Bad Company 2 - Vietnam. Zwar muss man dem Russischen mächtig sein, um den Kommentator verstehen zu können, doch lohnt sich das Aufdrehen der Boxen dennoch:

Denn die Jungs haben den Hintergrund mit bekannten Tracks der 60-70er gespickt. Klasse. B)

11:58 [Comment From Alpha_Leader] Hey Zh1nt0

11:58 DICE_zh1nt0: Hey bro, what's up?

11:59 [Comment From Scott] The flameflower looks mighty powerful. How is it balanced in the game?

12:00 [Comment From Cody] Can the flamethrower light objects on fire, Destruction 2.0 style?

12:00 DICE_zh1nt0: So, we will take your questions now

12:00 Lucian Tucker: Should you all introduce yourselves first?

12:00 DICEKleanupGuy: It will set fire to some of the enviroment and also damage stuff

12:01 DICEfigge: To Scott: It has limited range and applies its damage over time

12:01 DICEHBrun: Sure thing! I'm Tommy Rydling, Jr Product Manager at DICE. Nice to meet you all!

12:01 DICEKleanupGuy: Hi. I'm Björn by the way - Producer for Battlefield Bad Company 2 Vietnam

12:02 DICEfigge: Ok, who am I? I'm Niklas Fegraeus, the lead designer of the game

12:02 DICE_zh1nt0: I'm Daniel aka zh1nt0. Global Community Manager for Battlefield.

12:02 [Comment From Vash] Will there be Rat holes for Guys to climb into and out of like the Vietcon used ?

12:02 [Comment From DruGLorD] hi, will the hardcore mode stay for Vietnam?

12:02 DICE_zh1nt0: No, we felt this didn't balance the game as we wanted.

12:02 DICE_cmd: I´m Gustav Halling, Gameplay designer at DICE and recently BFBC2: Vietnam. Before that gameplay designer on Medal of Honor and Battlefield 1943

Also made the Conquest Map pack to Bad Company 1.

12:02 DICEfigge: Yes, there will be hardcore mode available

12:03 [Comment From Jay] Where is goldfarb? Is that dude even awake right now.

12:03 DICE_zh1nt0: Goldfarb is always awake. He's a machine.

12:03 [Comment From Fersis] Why did you pick Vietnam ? and not for instance WW2,etc

12:03 DICE_zh1nt0: We fell in love with the whole setting. It was also a community request to take players back to Vietnam since we were so successfull back in '04 with the original Battlefield Vietnam.

12:04 [Comment From Mason] Are Vietnam maps available for all modes? Including Squad DM?

12:04 DICEfigge: Yes, all modes are available on all maps!

12:04 [Comment From William] Will rhe specact work in Vietnam (with other clothes)

12:04 DICE_zh1nt0: Nope. It's only for BC2

12:05 [Comment From Jayross] So 5 maps, times 4 modes, meaning 20 possible combinations? Nice!

12:05 [Comment From Sean] Does the recon class still keep their mortor strikes?

12:05 DICEKleanupGuy: Nice you like it. Yes it is a pretty meaty package

12:05 [Comment From Eisenhorn029] how will no scopes affect gameplay. is it noticeably different?

12:05 DICEfigge: Yes, Recon still have their mortar strikes

12:06 DICE_zh1nt0: Well, first of all you need to get closer to your opponent to actually be able to kill someone. It brings a more hardcore and close feeling to the gameplay.

12:06 [Comment From ChargerCarl] will vietnam stats show up under BC2 or as a seperate game?

12:06 [Comment From Guest] will there be a SP in vietnam ?

12:06 DICEHBrun: I'd say gameplay is a bit more up close and personal in Vietnam. Figge?

12:06 DICE_zh1nt0: No sir. Only multiplayer since it's a multiplayer expansion pack

12:07 DICEfigge: Everything you score in Vietnam will count towards your normal progression, so you will still get your ranks and unlocks, regardless if you play vanilla or Vietnam

12:07 [Comment From savorymaxwell] do we get to keep our rank

12:07 DICE_zh1nt0: Yes, and all points scored in Vietnam will carry over to your BC2 game.

12:07 DICEfigge: Yes HBrun, it's a bit more dirty and in your face

12:08 [Comment From Matt] Can the Flamethrower be reloaded with the Ammothingy, or do you have to die to get if full again?

12:08 DICE_cmd: Yes the flamethrower replenish if you stand beside a ammo box

12:08 [Comment From Derozero] Do you still have magnum ammo and body armor specs?

12:09 [Comment From KAIZER SOSA] How will helicopters behave and will we have plenty of AA to take them out?

12:09 [Comment From savorymaxwell] Okay so if I already platinumed the game will it be undone by buying the expansion?

12:09 DICE_cmd: There is no specific AA guns in Vietnam but all weapons do damage and RPG and stationary weapons do HEAVY damage =)

12:09 [Comment From Esgaloth] Is the M16 Automatic or burst rifle

12:09 DICE_zh1nt0: Esgaloth. M16 is fully automatic.

12:09 [Comment From 1fnbighen] is there something like a tracer? will it be better than right now

12:10 DICE_zh1nt0: No tracer in Vietnam since this was back in the days bro. They didn't have tracers .

12:10 DICEfigge: You will be able to use all specializations you have unlocked, with the exception of those too modern to have a representative in the Vietnam era (which is only two)

12:10 DICEKleanupGuy: No. You will keep your original BFBC2 progression. Vietnam expands on that experience.

12:10 [Comment From cruddycronin] IT LOOKED LIKE THE FLAMETHROWER AND THUMP GUN WHERE SECONDARIES IS THAT THE CASE

12:11 DICE_zh1nt0: Flamethrower is a main gun and the thump gun is a secondary for the assault class.

12:11 [Comment From Theodore] will the vietnam weapons be able in bc2?

12:11 [Comment From shadowsn] what branch is the flamethrower for?

12:11 DICE_zh1nt0: No, the Vietnam weapons won't be available in BC2

12:11 [Comment From Charlie] How does the Huey compare to the Black Hawk from Bad Company 2?

12:11 DICEfigge: shadowsn: All kits can use the flamethrower

12:11 DICE_cmd: The huey is a mix of transport and attack helicopter behavior in BC2. It is light and agile and easy to fly but takes longer time to master!

12:12 [Comment From Vipershock24] Is there a chance of it coming out on a CD for the PC?

12:12 DICEHBrun: It's more awesome.

12:12 [Comment From Colin] how many new weapons are there all together?

12:12 [Comment From Hoax001] is there bullet drop on sniper rifles? What can you tell us about the sniper rifle line-up?

12:12 DICE_cmd: If you play BC2 you will have no problem learning the weapons in Vietnam

12:12 [Comment From luciddreaming] You guys rock !!!!! Thank you for BATTLEFIELD

12:12 DICEfigge: Colin: There are 15 new weapons in Vietnam

12:12 DICE_zh1nt0: And thank you for loving it

12:12 DICEKleanupGuy: [Comment From Vipershock24 Vipershock24: ]

Is there a chance of it coming out on a CD for the PC?

A:Not in the plan right now.

12:13 [Comment From FirstAss] wird das spiel lagg frei sein?

12:13 [Comment From xMAFIA_PLxMICHAL] map for 69 milions squad points ? on the official site you will count this ??

12:13 DICE_zh1nt0: Ja mein Freund Ist es grade nicht lagg frei meinst du ?

12:13 [Comment From Siniestro] how does the tank flame-thrower work? how do you equip it?

12:13 DICE_cmd: The flamethrower on the tank replaces the coax gun addon in BC2.

12:14 [Comment From digme007] Will you be giving out anymore dogtags ?

12:14 DICE_zh1nt0: Of course! Many more events like that coming up

12:14 DICEKleanupGuy: [Comment From xMAFIA_PLxMICHAL xMAFIA_PLxMICHAL: ]

map for 69 milions squad points ? on the official site you will count this ??

A: Yes. You will be able to track this on our website: Battlefield.com

12:15 [Comment From Marc] Can you destroy a Tank with a Flamthrower

12:15 DICE_cmd: Flame dosent hurt metal giants.

12:15 [Comment From Gamer] Will in Vietnam be something like quad from BC2?

12:15 [Comment From adam] wich do you think is the best sniper rifle

12:16 DICEfigge: adam: The one I'm wielding

12:16 [Comment From Jupiter23] How will the ingame music work?

12:16 DICEKleanupGuy: Comment From Gamer Gamer: ]

Will in Vietnam be something like quad from BC2?

A: Yes. You will have the awesome 3 wheeled Tuk Tuk

12:16 [Comment From daniel44] how big are the maps compared to the now available?

12:16 DICE_cmd: The maps have the same size mixes as BC2 but since it´s in Vietnam there is more forest and trenches to hide in that promotes infantry fighting!

12:16 DICEfigge: It will be in the form of a vehicle radio, you flip channels with the DPad

12:17 DICEHBrun: Gotta love the tuk tuk!

12:17 [Comment From shadowsn] can passengers in tuk tuk shoot?

12:17 DICEKleanupGuy: yes

12:17 [Comment From Josh] I'm rank 50, does that mean i will not be able to rank up anymore in Vietnam? There was speculation that it would have a seperate ranking system which i really hoped was true.

12:17 DICE_cmd: There will be new achivements to unlock!

12:17 [Comment From Ivozn] Can we burn vehicles with the flamethrower?

12:18 DICE_zh1nt0: For Battlefield: Bad Company 2 Vietnam, you need to switch your server over from BC2. This is to ensure that players that don't have Vietnam don't get booted out of the map rotation.

So in short. Vietnam will not be included into the BC2 map rotation

12:18 DICEfigge: Ivozn: Yes, as long as they don't have heavy armor

12:18 [Comment From da_mike(aut)] more trees like nelson bay ?

12:18 DICE_zh1nt0: You're in the jungle bro

12:18 [Comment From Rohan (nrki)] Will you be able to hear the music outside the vehicles?

12:18 [Comment From Cloud] Will there be a radio in vechicles like in original BF Vietnam?

12:18 DICE_cmd: Yes there a are a channel for every taste!

12:18 [Comment From Hotspurs81] Is it going to be jets in vietnam AWNSWEEEER!!!

12:18 DICE_zh1nt0: Yes, but only in the ambient. You can't fly jets in Vietnam. Only the chopper.

12:18 [Comment From Siniestro] and how do you change channels on the PC?

12:19 DICE_zh1nt0: You press the X button on your keyboard

12:19 [Comment From DemonLordy] And Napalm, yes i love the smell of Napalm in the morning

12:19 DICEKleanupGuy: [Comment From Cloud Cloud: ]

Will there be a radio in vechicles like in original BF Vietnam?

Yes, with different radio stations for you to choose from. Yes it will be heard from the outside of the vehicle.

12:19 DICEHBrun: For more hard facts on Vietnam: www.battlefieldbadcompany2.com/vietnam

12:19 DICE_zh1nt0: I personally like the smell of brazilian tea

12:19 [Comment From ebevan91] What class uses the flamethrower? I'm guessing assault?

12:19 DICE_cmd: All classes have the flamethrower as I think someone answered somewhere above for all late people

12:20 [Comment From Rene] Hej Dice Team Med Bad Company 2, du har gjort ditt mästerverk. Jag gillar speciellt de nya multiplayer-kartor.

Ser fram emot att BFBC2 Vietnam och Battlefield 3 Tack vare er, fortsätt med det! Hälsningar Rene

12:20 [Comment From Atherone] Are we stuck with waiting til the 18th to play?

12:20 DICE_cmd: I´m sad to say thats true, me wants it now!!!

12:20 [Comment From Andrew] Will Vietnam have its own menu? Or just a section in the existing multiplayer menu

12:20 DICEfigge: Andrew: It will have a separate menu, just like Onslaught

12:23 DICE_zh1nt0: Yes you do

12:23 [Comment From Jordan] why did you guys decide to charge for vietnam when all your map packs were free with vip?

12:23 [Comment From Paul] Do weapons have more recoil than in BC2 because they are older or just the same?

12:23 DICE_cmd: In Vietnam you didn´t have the advance anti-recoil system that exists today so expect some new smaller behaviors

12:24 DICE_zh1nt0: Because Vietnam is a big expansion pack. as you can see, we have 6 new vehicles, 15 new weapons, 5 brand new maps and an amazing 2 hour long soundtrack

12:24 [Comment From Cubex_mods] are the maps bigger than what we saw in bad company 2?
