Do your fingers hurt? Having to hold down sprint and crouch are killing mine. But of course, when the need arises, there are heroes that cone to the aid of the downtrodden.
Bunchafunk has created an "Autohotkey" set just for us BFBC2'ers. Now, you can toggle crounch, sprint and even aim down sights! Huge thanks man.

Grab it here. http://bunchafunk.googlecode.com/files/crouch_toggle_autohotkey.zip

For each new aspect of a game that makes it better.. there should be those same inclusions to other games of that genre to bring them all to a higher level. I know that there are detractors that will gripe about "they ripped this off from XXX", but ya know what?!... if it makes the game better, why should anyone other than the copyright holder care? You can recognize an obvious grab from a different game.. good for you and welcome to 99% of gamers.

On another note.. I am curious to see if the BFBC2 community thinks of something like this as a hack, or a cheat..
Head on into the forums and let's hear about it.

Activision sued by Jason and Vince PDF Print E-mail

As more information emerges.. this starts to get good. In this article, it comes to light that Jason West and Vince Zampella have sued Activision. Good on you boys. My bet is still that they were being told how to make their games to rake in the cash from the IP rather than make their games to kick ass.

That didn't cut the mustard with them when they were at EA and I doubt it tastes appealing now. Charges that royalties were coming due and to avoid them, Activision fired them instead, seem well within possibility. Too much speculation is never a good thing, but then again I have never been good at being good, so here goes.

Jason and Vince, through arbitration reach a cash settlement with Activision. The question of rights to MW or COD is mute since Activision knows this is a cash cow on crack. Jason and Vince start a new studio and kick so much ass that they are in a position to name their price again.. but, instead they don't sell and just keep making great games.

Time will tell how they fare but get ready for this...

 

Call of Duty: Vietnam
Call of Duty: The Nazi Chronicles
Call of Duty: Pacific at War
Call of Duty: Swiss Alp Skier
Call of Duty: Mix -n- Match painting
Call of Duty: The Card Game.. etc, etc.. ad infinitum.

Oh, Treyarch.. you're next..

 Excerpt from G4TV

http://g4tv.com/thefeed/blog/post/702911/Security-Appears-Unannounced-At-Infinity-Ward-Studio-Heads-Missing-Staff-Freaked-Out-.html

 

UPDATE 12:02 AM: Double Fine's Tim Schafer, who had his own troubles with Activision over the release of Brutal Legend, recently commented on Twitter about what's happening between Infinity Ward and Activision.

"Getting mad at Activision for this kind of thing is like getting mad at an ape for throwing feces," said Schafer. "It's just how the beast communicates."

UPDATE 11:20 PM: It turns out Activision may have showed their hand in this matter earlier today.

In an SEC filing made this morning, Activision cited a human resources investigation into "breaches of contract and insubordination by two senior employees at Infinity Ward."

Based on the information we currently have, at least one of those employees may have included Infinity Ward CTO Jason West. It's possible Vince Zampella is the other unmentioned employee.

"This matter is expected to involve the departure of key personnel and litigation," read the filing. "At present, the Company does not expect this matter to have a material impact on the Company."

UPDATE 11:11 PM: Infinity Ward community manager Robert Bowling has vaguely addressed the situation.

"I should also say, while I appreciate all the calls, tweets, messages and hearing my ringtone a lot," said Bowling on his Twitter account, "they're in vain - as I have no info."

UPDATE 10:07 PM: More developments on the situation at Infinity Ward have come to light.

A screen shot surfaced from Infinity Ward CTO Jason West's Facebook page at Kotaku with the status update "Jason West is drinking. Also, unemployed." I can confirm from a source that's friends with West that update did actually come from West's account.

West also updated his Linkedin profile to appears to reflect a change in employment. 

"President/Game Director/CCO/CTO Infinity Ward
January 2001 – March 2010 (9 years 3 months)"

There's a lot of speculation on what types of DLC will come out for Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 and Battlefield: Bad Company 2 in the coming months. Free Download?
Pay to play? What about company sponsored packs?

What is for sure is that there will be no shortage of demand. Quality could suffer though, so speak out and voice your opinions on our forums.
