  1. Step 1: Pick your class.

    In B:
    BC2 there are 4 classes:
    Assault, Recon, Medic and Engineer.

    Decide which one is the best for you.

    Assault are equipped with powerful weapons, grenade launchers and can give ammo to their team mates.

    Recon is an effective class if you wish to snipe.

    In conquest its 12 vs 12, you need to capture the control points and hold them as long as you can.

    In rush its 4 vs 4 players in battle for exploding devices, you need to detonate them before they explode or set them up.

    One team will be on offensive and the other on defensive.

    Squad rush is 12 vs 12 players in a tighter version of Rush.

    All modes can be played in a hardcore mode which is very hard., You can get XP in a lot of ways, collecting enemy dog tags, getting kills, giving ammo or Medical kits, reviving, fixing vehicles, getting control points, destroying enemy vehicles, detonating bombs, etc.

    The more XP you get the closer you are to the next rank, even if you lose you still get XP.

    But if you win you get more XP.

    You can also get medals per match which increase XP, Medals such as Knife efficiency (Getting 7 kills with the combat knife) or capturing a certain amount of control points., Follow these steps again and again to level up, who knows you might end up at Rank
    50.,,,,,, Instead, take the long way around and base camp and wait for the enemy to respawn. ,, You have two options.

    If at the enemy base camp, crouch and cut some trees down for cover.

    It is a good idea to kill the artillery guy and blow up the tanks with the laser designator. , Now wait behind the rocks with your RPG!

  11. Step 11: Go behind the sign and wait until you see guys.

  12. Step 12: Let it rip!
