EA has posted up a "field manual" for Bad Company 2. The manual contains just about everything in the game along with a few suggestions. It looks like all maps, weapons, and vehicles are listed. You need an EA or Xbox live account to access it.

For those of you that do not have either or would like a hard copy of the data RudeDog, from fpsadmin.com, created a PDF file that you can download that contains the sites information.

DICE has kindly passed along word about their plans for remote administration of servers for Battlefield: Bad Company 2.
A little background
Since the Frostbite engine had not yet been used for any PC titles, there had been no need for advanced server administration tools. BFBC2 PC changed that however.

There was a sort of "server console" thing, but it was intended for developer use only. Something easier to use and more stable was necessary when we came closer to release it to the PC users.

So what are we doing?
We are creating a separate command console, which is stable, and where the commands will not change. This will be the Remote Administration interface for BFBC2 PC. BF2 console commands have been a good source of inspiration
The Remote Administration interface is accessible over a network port on the game server.

While we ensure that there is a solid administration interface, we are not creating any fancy tools. Why not? Because the community will do a much better job! RSPs have already been using the interface for weeks, and several people are working on user friendly tools. We will continue to improve the protocol with functions that are necessary to make good tools.

When Closed Beta Server R5 (yes, we have already patched the game servers 3 times. I love our new patching system) is released, the RSPs will be allowed to expose the Remote Administration interface on their servers to the public... and we will publish the FULL protocol specification. You have my word on that.
At the rate the patches seem to be flowing forth, it may not be long now before you can get the first glimpse of the Remote Administration interface.

MyInternetServices.com just upped the ante on our Battlefield: Bad Company 2 server rentals! Effectively immediately, anybody who pre-orders a Bad Company 2 server, and pays in advance, has a chance to win an Intel i7-920 CPU!

Pretty sweet deal, right? Let's not forget that the price per slot during this pre-order period is only $1.66 (USD), a savings of 15% off of the regular price ($1.95 USD).

I'm still in dire need of cookies and gold stars here, so don't forget to mention my name ("Zips" will do!) when ordering your server!
