Customer Reviews

Not for PC

I bought this to learn the PC version, which seems quite different than the console... However, it looks like a very good guide for xbox, etc. Don't buy it if you're playing BF2 on PC....better (and really only) information is online.

/Excellent for beginners

This book explained a lot that the software package didnt. Worth the money.

Greatest game I ever owned

Battlefield 2 is hands down the greatest game I have ever owned. The only thing is that you should heavily consider upgrading to 1 GB RAM on your computer. The ZBoard gaming keyboard is also a must, so get one set up for Battlefield 2.

Battlefield 2 Essential Tool

This is what every Battlefield 2 soldier needs to learn all the little intricacies and secrets of playing the game to Win!!! Just a few highlights: - You learn how the online scoring is done so you can advance in rank. - You learn the capabilities of each weapon and vehicle. - Excellent hints for each of the soldier kits. - Color detailed images of each of the maps. - A lot of hints for actual online combat tactics. This is well worth the investment for the serious Battlefield Warrior.

increase your skill

Battlefield 2 is one of Prima's best selling games. Knight shows that it is a multiplayer game of sweeping complexity. Highly addictive. But you probably already knew that! The chances are that if you are reading this, you've already played Battlefield. But you want an edge up on your opponents. Or perhaps you are wondering why they are consistently beating you? So the book can be used as a secret weapon or as an equaliser. Keep in mind that this is an official text from Prima. In other words, there is nothing here about any unauthorised key sequences or third party plug-ins that actually let you cheat. [Not that you would do that, eh?] Rather, the intent is ultimately to sell more copies of the game. Not of this book. By showing you more sophisticated abilities and strategies inherent in the game. Makes you a better player. By doing so, Prima bets that the extra investment of your time in playing the game decreases the chance that you will go elsewhere.
