BF2 was cool and all, but felt a little old after playing a shit ton of the Desert Combat mod for 1942. Course, it helped that I didnt really play BF2 in quite the same setting as 1942...
Environments look pretty good, vehicles are nice - characters and animations looked pretty bad in that trailer tho, effects were pretty rubbish too.
I'd probably be happy if it's just a kind of expansion + new engine for the 1942 gameplay, with some extra maps, vehicles and weapons.
One thing they need to make sure of is to make the Soldier class actually useful, most of the time you were much better off playing Medic since that class got the same weapon loadout for the most part, but also medpacks ... so there was no reason to play soldier...
das Kubelwagon ist besitz!!
It looks very pretty, but watching that vid I get a very strong 'been there, done that, next' feeling. I just hope they've added some new game-play mechanics to breathe some new life into the old girl.
That said, there's a 99% chance I'll buy a copy of this when it drops regardless.
...would have preferred a BF3
Wake Island was too much fun. Wake Island for BF2 was ok, but not as great. The second map in the video was also a favorite of mine, I forget the name. Good to see them again in new lighting.
I prefer the arcade feel to the series over realism. And the vibrant colors will make the hours and days of playing easier on the eyes. Definitely on my buy list. Good to see EA is letting them give the gamers what they actually want. Now, release Battlefield Heroes.
yay? Total rehash and a poor attempt by EA to get money quick.
I can't wait for this.
fixed.
sounds like a profitable test to bridge the gap in time and tech between now and battlefield 3.

1943, badcomp2, and heroes are all different games.
While i did like them a lot in the original BF42, give me some African Theatre Maps - loved flying in those.
Not really, Heroes is PC and 1943 is PS3/360.
edit:
oh didnt know they did it for pc.
I've played a bit of Heroes, and trust me, it's way different from the traditional battlfield feel. Plus, it's free to play and item-sales based, whereas 1943 is a more traditional game. Bad Company is the one that seems like the odd one out to me.
Do it, Brome! I mean, now you almost have to if you want to be taken seriously as an administrator in the future
Battlefield 1943: Pacific is a download only, multiplayer game for the Xbox 360, Playstation 3 and PC
The game is scheduled for release this summer with an expected price point between $15 to $20. The download size of the game will be around 350MB
That explains a lot. It is interesting though. I hope they keep the great innovations of squad play and voice commands.
I wouldn't doubt it. Got Adam his first industry gig and never got a thanks. MEANIE!
Doc, that makes it much more appropriate imo. If it's just a few pacific maps, I'd rather see a $15 price point though. Small and download only, I'm okay with this rehash. I assumed (since we had no info) that it was going to be a full released box game, which I thought was ridiculous.
But from what I hear, this'll be super-arcadey. Kotaku reports unlimited ammo and rechargable health, and only three classes. No medic (because of rechargable health), no engineer. So I just don't know how to feel about it yet...
