Personally, I prefer BC2.
I enjoy it a lot more than MW1/2, & I also think it seems fairer on those who don't have the time to spend hours online every day. With MW2, I didn't like the Perk system, & I always felt punished for not playing non-stop, it always seemed overly unbalanced to me. With BC2, although obviously there is still a ranking system & weapon unlocks etc., IMO it works better than MW & doesn't put me off playing.
Re. what Charlie_Bubble said: Some valid points. Especially re deathmatch games - pointless in BC2 IMO. I think it's just tacked on, BC2 is really all about the objective games (Rush & Conquest) - I wouldn't bother with it at all for DM. As for not many talking, that's true, although I rarely bother using my headset on XBL anyway due to the muppets you find online. It's best if you're playing with Friends rather than randoms, as you'll get better communication & teamwork, but I have still had some excellent games when playing only with randoms, with some really good Squads. Excess snipers? Hunt them down & knife them!
