Associate Producer 'Barrie Tingl' äußerte im offiziellen Blog /Forum , dass mehr Personen die PC-Fassung von Battlefield: Bad Company 2 (ab 14,59€ bei kaufen) spielen würden als die jeweilige Version für Xbox 360 oder PlayStation 3 (einzeln gesehen). Auch die Anzahl der gleichzeitig aktiven User überstieg die Zahl der Battlefield 2-Spieler, das nach über fünf Jahren immer noch stark frequentiert ist.

Darüber hinaus arbeiten DICE und EA weiter an der Server-Stabilität. Einige Disconnect- und Authentifizierungs-Probleme auf dem PC sollen bereits mit der kürzlich veröffentlichten Serverversion 'R5' aus der Welt geschafft worden sein.

btw: PC currently has more people playing and are in game servers than both the consoles. [...] The PC had more players than either console not more than both consoles combined. You'll need to work to beat both consoles combined effort [...]

After last nights EA server outage on PS3 and PC, EA have found the issue and put a fix in place and brought the servers back online. This means that both PS3 and PC players can return back to playing Bad Company 2.

We are aware of a number of remaining disconnect issues on PC and we have released the 'R5' server to hosts yesterday to address some of the disconnects. We are continuing to work on the remaining disconnect issues to have a solution as fast as possible as well as looking into reports of other issues raised on the forums for consoles and PC .

Battlefield Bad Company 2 has managed to prove so popular that yesterday the concurrent users in Battlefield: Bad Company 2 surpassed that in Battlefield 2 which has been going strong for almost 5 years.
