I've played some single player games of BF 1942 in anticipation for this... with 12 bots on each side, some of those maps are pretty sparse. I think I played an entire map without killing a single enemy. 😱 That was on one of the bigger desert maps though. Wake Island seemed too big with bots that do their own thing, but I suppose humans will be likely to focus the fighting on a couple of areas. I'm pretty sure I remember playing 12 on 12 games back when it came out on PC and it was fine.
 
I for one thought that Bad Company's engine was a piece of trash. It played like total ass. Which is why I'm worried for the new Battlefield. I loved 1942, Vietnam, and 2 so I'd hate to see the series start to suck.

You're a fool. The Frostbite engine from BF:BC was great. DICE is using, in their words, Frostbite 1.5 for BF:1943. It has improvements over the first engine to include full building destruction.

Fffffffuuuuuuuu!

Great response. Way to add to the topic.

Thanks for joining this nearly five month old thread. I guess you missed my other posts or maybe you're just unaware. Either way, you lack comprehension and you're a fool like d4mo.
 
Just got a tweet from the Battlefield 1943 devs that the 360 version is coming on the 8th and the PS3 version is coming on the 9th.
 
I was pretty excited about this at first but thinking about it more I feel like we're getting ripped off even for 15$.
 
Great! Finally a confirmed date! It's been a long wait. I'll download it as soon as it's available.

Then don't buy it. Your loss.

I'm sorry, I thought this was a public forum where people expressed opinions. Anyway I will wait for the PC version so I can see if it sucks by checking it out when my friends buy the console version.

o snap!


On another note, i am damn excited, i will get it for the console and then for sure the pc.
 
i am pretty damn excited for this. are the psn and xbl servers are separate for this game? i guess it's too big of a dream to hope that players can play each other x-platform.

Yeah, all the platforms are going to be separate for online play.
