Bad Company 2 gets four-way co-op Onslaught mode
EA said today that Bad Company 2 is to get a four-player co-op mode named “Onslaught”.
The mode can be played with up to four players across four multiplayer maps – Valparaiso, Atacama Desert, Isla Inocentes, and Nelson Bay – redesigned with new lighting, time of day, added vehicles and other stuff.
Each map has a dedicated gameplay focus. The update’s “coming soon,” apparently.
There’s only mention of Onslaught for 360 and PS3 in this press release. Nothing for PC. There’s no mention of cost there, either.

And before someone like loki say the PC sux and something about how it is dead and piracy:
DICE in the forums
No, we haven’t signed away rights to console on this.
The problem we have on PC is that all our servers are dedicated with providers. Changing a server from Conquest 32 players to Onslaught 4 players cuts out 28 player slots from the total ammount available. This could have a dramatic affect on the PC online environment if enough servers changed to Onslaught.
We aren’t ruling out Onslaught on PC but at this time we are researching how to bring it to PC without affecting players who don’t have Onslaught or their own server to run it on.
