Take out the enemy by pressing the E button to open fire. Press and hold the Q button for precision
aiming; crouch (press the N button) to steady your shot and make it tougher for enemies to hit you.
Switch weapons by pressing the D button. Use your knife (R button) for a stealth/melee kill.
Be sure to take cover where you can and keep moving before your cover is blown away—and you with it.
You can also try sneaking around to flank enemy positions while your squadmates have them occupied.
All the weaponry you find is collectable, but you can only carry two weapons at a time. Switch out your
current load-out by locating a Supply Drop. Once you make contact with the Drop, you can select any
weapons you’ve unlocked.
Fill out your arsenal and earn Trophies by fi nding all the collectable weapons
scattered through the levels. Some weapons are available only on specifi c levels.
A few hits in critical areas, and that’s the end of you. When you see your own blood creeping in around the
edges, take cover until your health regenerates.

Nowhere is safe. Every building and most cover objects can be chipped away or completely destroyed if
enough firepower is trained on it. Anybody caught inside a collapsing building gets buried alive.
Take your squad deep into hostile territory as an escalating U.S./Russia conflict threatens to turn America into
a graveyard. Grab any vehicle you see, demolish any obstacles in your way, and race to uncover a Russian
plot that could turn the tide of war in a single, devastating flash. The odds of survival aren’t good. That’s why
they’re sending you.

Raised on two generations of war stories, Private Marlowe joined Bad Company
to get some combat under his belt. Now, as Bad Company’s latest “recruit,”
Marlowe’s getting all the action he can handle. Maybe more.
(Squad Leader)
Sergeant Samuel D. Redford is the only soldier to actually request transfer to
Bad Company. Some paint that decision as crazy or suicidal, but Sarge has
his reasons. He used to buy into the whole military lifestyle, Mom and Apple
Pie, all of it. Not anymore. Especially not after Sadiz.

(Technical and
Communications Specialist)
Private Terrence Sweetwater is too smart for his own good. He enlisted for
the college scholarship his recruiter dangled in front of him, figuring his
brains would keep him in the rear with the gear. And maybe they would
have, if he hadn’t “accidentally” uploaded a virus to a secure military
network he wasn’t supposed to access in the first place.
(Explosives Expert)
Private George Gordon Haggard, Jr. actually likes being in Bad Company.
His better personality traits include low-impulse control, consistently poor
hygiene, and an encyclopedic knowledge of explosives. The upside is that
Haggard’s a hell of a soldier. He’s just a little … unorthodox. And loud.
Take on the world in objective-based Multiplayer matches. Up to 24 players team up to defend key items and
positions, or simply wipe the opposition off the map. Choose the gear that favors infantry or vehicle warfare,
and see how long you can survive.

Twelve-man teams are broken down into four-player squads, and some game modes narrow things down to
a Squad vs. Squad face-off. In all cases, the smart soldier sticks by his squad. A good squad can resuscitate
fallen comrades, keep vehicles in good repair and watch each other’s six, even in the worst situations. Work
together to succeed.
When you’re killed, you can choose to respawn at your squadmates location.
Your squad’s names appear to the right of your map; the color those names
appear in corresponds to their markers on your map. Other friendly squads appear in blue, enemies in red.
Rush Defend or destroy pairs of M-COM stations for as long as reinforcements hold out. A M-COM
station can also be destroyed when a building is collapsing down on it.
Conquest Capture and hold flags for as long as possible against all comers. Vehicles unlock as control
points are held. Bonus points for inflicting casualties on the opposition.
Squad Rush Rush played tight, as two squads go head-to-head over two single M-COM stations. Blow
the stations or bury all enemy reinforcements to win.
Squad Four squads and one Infantry Fighting Vehicle roam the map. Nail the other squads before
Deathmatch they nail you. First squad to fifty kills wins.
Use the recommended battle tactics to dominate your enemies on all ten unique landscapes.

expecting … or the trouble you want to cause. Choose wisely and erase the enemy.

grenade launchers to quickly clear a path.
