"Loadouts Lost, Switching between Bad Company 2 (BC2) & Vietnam Multiplayer (MP)."
- BC2 MP and Vietnam MP read the same parameters for class loadouts. The ensuring disparity of weapons results in loadout reset.

Mods
Although Frostbite is a relatively modding-unfriendly engine, a nascent modding community has formed and was able to extend the map border, create new in-game items and tweak weapons and vehicles. They have even released modding tools.
- Emulator Nexus
- Critical // Edge
These are the main modding forums.
