Also, I'm an idiot can a mod switch title to Battlefield w/o the space?

Only thing I wish was already different was the unlock system. I always liked how battlefield just had basic kits but they could be upgraded once.

Note: I wasted too much of my teen years on Wake Island.

I loved Battlefield 1942 and played it to death, then came Battlefield Vietnam which was more of the same really but great fun. Battlefield 2 followed eventually which was rough around the edges but had a whole lot of content going for it and was huge amounts of fun. Then DICE released a patch for it which caused it to crash to desktop randomly for about 5% of users. Then they did not patch this crash for approximately 3 months. It rendered the game unplayable for me and many others.

I refused to buy 2142 because of that and I'm not sure I can bring myself to get this either despite it sounding pretty sweet. I'll probably cave in after seeing more

The game was released for xb360 on the 8th, ps3 on the 9th. There was some controversy as players were unable to join a game due to their servers being overloaded the first 24 hours(the game is online only). I was able to join a game this morning and it was pretty fun. It's 1200 points so I guess you get what you pay for. If you played Bad Company then you should be be comfortable with the game play. There are 3 maps and the only game type is Conquest. They added planes and the ability to call in bomber unit's for an air strike. I played 3-4 games and got 6/12 achievements.

There's also a 4th map...

Quote:
The thing is that you will not have access to all maps as you will be able to play the Coral Sea map after a worldwide community challenge is “solved.” If you want Coral Sea unlocked then all Battlefield 1943 players from around the world have to reach a total of 43 million kills so call all your friends and start killing.

thats great, but why buy an inferior product when you could just play CoD4?

because you cant fly planes, use jeeps as carbombs, or bayonet some japs LDO


but the server load is really getting annoying, its nearly impossible to play right now.. they said they should have 2x the server amount in a few hours, but i doubt that'll even be close to enough...

Just played for like 3 hours, the server issues are ridiculous but the game is about as fun as a 15 dollar game could be.

For $15 this game is the nuts. BF gameplay has always been 10x better than CoD gameplay. CoD4 is good, but larger, more varied maps, vehicles, and destructable terrain and buildings make BF my choice. This game is a blast to play and for the price, you really can't complain about 3 maps/kits.

Alright, I was waiting to hear something like this before I downloaded the game. I'll get it tonight and try it out. Pretty happy to have a good multiplayer FPS that I can play without swapping discs (yes, my life is so hard).

This game is awesome, I love seeing all the random **** happen with vehicles. Idiots crashing the planes, crazy jeep maneuvers, etc.

Last night I took a jeep and two teammates to cap a flag. I jumped out while the jeep was still going pretty fast and I unintentionally had the jeep headed towards a fuel barrel, got both my teammates a -10 for suicide. I lol'd.
