Welcome to Bad Company
- YouTube: BF: Bad Company Walkthrough: Welcome to Bad Company Part 1 (Time: 9:56) | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5
- CUTSCENE: A Helicopter brings in the main character Preston Marlow. He's being sent to join B Company otherwise known as Bad Company. It houses the rejects of the army. Private Marlow reports to a Sergeant Redford and gets introduced to Sweetwater and Haggard, two fellow soldiers in B Company. They all board a convoy into a war zone.
- Watch the opening sequence at Marlow and Crew are driven into the battle. The convoy gets ambushed and Marlow is thrown into a drainage ditch.
- Follow the on screen prompts to learn the controls and rejoin Sweetwater on the dirt road. Sweetwater will have you inject yourself with a health stick by cycling the inventory with LB and using the stick with RT.
- Shoot the barrels by toggling the weapons with RB and firing with RT. Hit the same button sequence again to blow a hole in the house.
- Head into the house to grab a power tool and press B to pick it up. Head to the jeep and click RT to activate it.
Stop the Artillery Shelling
- CUTSCENE: Bad Company gets a go ahead from headquarters to take out the nearby artillery base.
- Hop in the car by clicking B, use LT to accelerate and LB to brake. Follow the road until the Humvee hits the blockade. Hop out and head into the shack on the right to pick off an enemy from the far window.
- When traveling down the hill, use crouch and stay along the rock wall for cover. There are three men in this area, one patrolling outside and another two inside each house. TIP: Fire on all the explosive items to take out the enemy quickly.

- COLLECTABLE: Pick up the S20K from the dead soldier in the house and the AEK971 from the dead guy in the yard to unlock the first 2 collectable guns. (1/5), (2/5)
- Move past the two houses and walk up the hill. Two soldiers will charge your location, so be ready to use the sandbags as cover. The third solider will be hiding by the artillery piece.
- The second artillery location will contain another three enemies. Hit explosive items in the path first, and then aim at the red boxes peaking out from behind the sandbags. The explosion will trigger the men to head B Company's way. Mow them down and move to the next artillery unit.
- One man will be standing near an explosive barrel. Target the barrel quickly to kill him. The other two men will briefly run away behind some sandbags, but run back out into B Company's fire.
- Two more men will be hiding behind sandbags at the artillery unit. Approach carefully and try for headshots. Remember to use the health unit when needed.
Protect the Convoy
- CUTSCENE: Headquarters will warn of a convoy that need protection from B Company's position. Haggard suggests that you should man the artillery gun.
- Hop into the artillery gun marked by the red triangle and press B to grab it. The screen will switch to an overhead view of the battle. Aim at the first two enemy APCs that surround the house. TIP: Be careful to avoid hitting the nearby friendly soldiers.
- Three more APCs will approach from the north road. You have time for one attempt at hitting the moving targets, but put some distance between the shots and their position to hit successfully. Otherwise, wait until they come to a stop to fire. Four more APCs will approach from the north road. Repeat the process.
Objective Ram
- Head to the river crossing by following the trail and head back out to the main road. An enemy APC will approach. Try to use the Humvee as a cover object and fire on the two soldiers that emerge from the troop carrier.
- Hop in the Humvee or APC and drive to the now battered town. Head through the rubble and follow the road to the red triangle on the radar. After the sharp curve, Marlow will be given a directive to search the upcoming house on the left.
- COLLECTABLE: Head inside the house to pick up the XM8 machine gun. (3/5)
- Hop back into the vehicle and continue along the road. An enemy helicopter will be leaving and Sweet will start firing on the grouping of enemies below in the camp. Take the vehicle to the gate and drive around as your gunner makes short work of the camp.
- The X marked on the radar signifies a power tool. Feel free to fix up the ride and drive to the center of the camp to fire on the soldiers at the elevated position ahead.
- Eventually, Sarge will yell at Marlow to man the machine gun. It's in a small enclosure on a row of sandbags. Fire on the APC that rolls down the hill and also at the nearby truck of explosives to destroy it. Fix up the vehicle again and head for the smoke.
Objective Mustang
- CUTSCENE: Headquarters calls in a scouting mission to clear the area of hostiles for the convoy.
- Check the radar and look for the next X marker. When the road branches, follow the grassy portion to the old house. You will come across an enemy APC and four men guarding the area.
- TIP: Escape your vehicle quickly once it falls below 20% health to avoid death by explosion.
- COLLECTABLE: After clearing out the heavy forces, head inside to pick up the 870 MCS. It's a high damage shotgun with a low rate of fire. (4/5)
- Check the radar and follow the main road that leads behind the town. Use the nearby truck if your APC exploded. Take the turn around the water tower and leave the truck to approach the farm from the position of the southeast X marker.
- Once the first shot is fired, enemies will swarm. Take out the enemies hiding in buildings with the grenade launcher. Watch for enemies firing from elevated positions as well as machine guns.
- Make your way around to the right and attempt to reach the second white X in the white stable with the machine gun. Shoot the one solider inside the stable and climb the ladder to man the machine gun. This makes short work of the remaining eight enemies. Just make sure to watch your health meter.
- CUTSCENE: Just when the fight ends, a light tank comes rolling out of a nearby barn to take B Company by surprise.
- The trick in this scenario is to stay out of the tank's firing path and head for the rocket launcher. Use the elevated position from the stable to fire on the tank with the machine gun and grenades. The tank will drive around the house trying to get a bead on B Company, so take off for the launcher.
- Use the rocket launcher to make short work of the tank and head to the smoke.
Objective Impala
- CUTSCENE: Air support is inbound, but the helicopter takes fire and explodes into the nearby barn.
- Hop in the nearby APC and drive to the new location. The APC will be fired upon at the tree line. Drive up and down the tree line in the nearby field to allow Haggard to take out several soldiers with the mounted gun.
- Once outside the vehicle, head for the nearby double X markers to pick up some C4. The C4 is for the three anti-air guns marked by orange triangles on the map.
- The best route is approaching from the rear of the formation, the far right triangle. Stationary machine guns are positioned toward the road rather than at B Company.
- Be sure to use the stationary gun before blowing it up. It's great for demolishing the tree line as well as nearby turrets. Mop up the rest with the APC mounted gun. After all three anti-aircraft guns are blown up, head for the smoke.
Objective Bronco
- CUTSCENE: The convoy rolls through and Headquarters orders B Company to investigate a farm to the east.
- Hop in an APC and look at the map. Instead of heading to the route marker, look to the south. See the X marker in the set of building next to the river? Drive to that marker; there won't be any resistance along the way.
- COLLECTABLE: Head into the house to pick up the SCAR machine gun. (5/5)
- Hop back in the APC and drive along the east road to the occupied farm. Approach from the south and use the mounted machine gun as long as possible. There will be light resistance in the area, about 4 to 5 enemies. Be careful of the mounted machine gun fire from the northern barn.
- The real fight begins after first wave of enemies is cleared from the area. Headquarters will call and inform B Company of a pack of enemies approaching from the east.
- Hop onto the mounted gun in the T section of the street. A small scout vehicle and troop supply truck will approach from the east. Take both out quickly with the mounted gun, but hop out when you see the light tank appear on the radar.
- Head for the house on the left side of the south road. It's marked with an X and contains a rocket launcher upstairs. Swap it out and wait for the light tank to approach. Use the interior of the house as cover and destroy the tank with the rocket launcher.
- TIP: Remember that you can blow holes in any nearby walls to create better shot angles.
- Hop back onto the mounted gun to kill the five enemies that took cover to the wreckage in the southern part of the farm. After they are dispatched, regroup at the smoke.
- CUTSCENE: The convoy finally rolls through and B Company celebrates.
- Hop in the nearby APC and follow the convoy to the next marker. Keep your distance, as an artillery barrage will hit the convoy. Regroup at the smoke near the river.
Objective Taurus
- CUTSCENE: B company calls Headquarters and they promised to send air support. But first, B Company has to destroy the nearby radar jammers.
- Hop back into the APC and man the mounted machine gun to kill the two enemies that appear across the river. Make your way through the upcoming trenches on foot, preferably to the right. Three mounted machine guns will fire on your position from towers ahead.
- Stay low and circle around to the right to avoid their fire. Attempt to approach the stationary guns from the rear and use the tree line for cover. Also try to health frequently.
- Climb one of the towers to take out the enemy from an elevated position. Don't worry about the enemy in the red zone to the east for now.
- The two white X's mark C4. Grab some and head to the radar units to plant explosives. Restock on some nearby ammo and regroup at the smoke.
- CUTSCENE: Headquarters calls in the air strike. They bomb the section to the east.
- Hop on the machine gun directly in front of Marlow first firing immediately on the troop positions on the radar. Try to heal frequently as this mounted gun is very exposed. There will be about 12 enemies to kill from the machine gun.
- Approach the triangle marker from the south and out of line of sight from the mounted machine gun. Shoot the machine gunner as he rotates the gun slowly to your position.
- CUTSCENE: Sarge calls Headquarters and informs them of their status. Sweetwater finds a dead soldier that isn't Russian, instead a mercenary from a group called the Legionaries. The Legionaries are a deadly group and all the troops get paid in gold bars. At the mention of gold, the men of B Company are definitely interested.
