The US Army General, Braidwood, transfers the B-Company men into his "Special Activities Division," promising that if they complete a few missions for him they will be able to leave the army and go back home to America. However, once they return to base, they are informed that the WMD was a dud, possibly for a "dry run" the Russians were planning to do. After fighting their way through a Russian village, they locate a "high value" truck containing what appears to be a metallic suitcase with a WMD inside. The game switches back to the present day, when the four-man team from B-Company (including Marlowe, Sweetwater, Haggard and Sarge) witnesses a Russian Contact of theirs being executed by a bald man.
A large wave of energy is seen rushing towards the soldiers and the scientist as the level ends. However, the scientist is afraid, claiming the "Black Weapon" has been activated. The four-man team manages to fight their way through the trenches, rescue the scientist and hitch a ride out of the base on a Japanese submarine. The story opens during a fictional mission in 1944 called Operation Aurora, where a select few US Army soldiers infiltrate a Japanese naval base to rescue a defecting Japanese scientist who claims to have knowledge of a super-weapon his side is developing. The stages – both single and multi-player – are set all the way from Alaska to Chile and features many different environments like alpine forests, dense jungles and barren snowscapes. This time the Russians are invading through Alaska and the game takes places largely on the western coast of the Americas. The game takes place in the modern era, with the continuing fictional conflict between the USA and Russia. The first game's notorious B Company (“Bad Company”) returns for the sequel. Plot and Setting An icy reception for the Ruskies.
The sequel also carries a more mature tone with realistic blood effects and in-game characters using profanity. At the same time, DICE aimed for a more tightly tuned single-player experience by addressing issues like pacing and the damage-soaking nature of the enemies. Bad Company 2 follows a bigger and better mentality with more vehicles, more destruction, and more team play than the original Bad Company.
