Battlefield: Bad Company 2 will not restrict party chat
DICE’s Gordon Van Dyke has told MTV that Battlefield: Bad Company 2 will not implement a block on Party Chat.
“We are ok with [party chat]. We haven’t taken a stance, being against it and feeling like people are cheating,” he said. “Is it worth putting a restriction on it that affects everybody?
“I don’t think [cheating with party chat is] that big of an issue, that I’ve seen, where we have to worry about that.”
Good to know, actually. Now you can tell your buddies involved in another match to hurry the hell up and join your battle hungry soldiers in a match.

I should have saved my MW2 money for this. I bet the single player will be better.

find all this childish, if they’re going to pick-on MW2 they should just get sociophatic about it and be has burtally heartless as is humanly possible, and make everyone at Infinity Ward cry like little babys who just shit their diappers

It would indeed be a bit stupid to block party chat for this game, because the maps are so big and boring, and the gameplay is so slow that the 5-10,000 or so people who actually do play it online regularly can’t even be bothered to cheat.

Bah sorry @5. Forgot the word “not” in there. I should not drink and write at the same time.

Party chat in BFBC1 and ’43 was the only way to get around the relatively small squad sizes, have they been increased from 4 in the PS3 beta?
