BF Vietnam

[Chaotic42]

Incase you're wondering, here is a Battlefield: Vietnam screenshot.

1600x1200x32

Here is one at 1600x1200x32 with FSAA and AF cranked on my Radeon 9700 Pro. There is serious artifacting during this, with the latest drivers.

I heard they made flying easier (especially helicopters)... any truth to that?

Looks awesome! I plan to get the game, but you guys should really give Vietcong some play. One of the best games of 2003 IMO. Very under appreciated. Single player and Multi player are both just great to play.

Helicopters autolevel when you let go of the W key now. I've heard they're easier than DC choppers, which kind of dissappoints me. In DC it was nice to be able to fly the choppers because it took some skill. You felt good when you could do it and most of the people who were really bad at it stayed out of them.

It came out in Canada march 12, thats weird how they would release it later in the states. Also, it is only 39.99 almost everywhere. I don't understand why they would make it so cheap, any thoughts?

Just picked up the last one at my local Best Buy. Installed, but don't have time to play it right now....
I did click on an instant play game just to see what it looks and feels like, very nice.

Just had my first online experience last night as well.

On my rig it runs "OK" without any tweaking... hope they fix the AA/AF issue soon!

Battlefield Vietnam is $29.99 at my local Circuit City until March 27. Check Circuitcity.com and click weekly ad it might be this same price at the Circuit City where you live.

I hear flying is much much much much easier on a dual analog controller like the usb modded Xbox and PS2 controllers. I'm going to try it out if i can find a non-crappy website to order from at a reasonable price.

Only places i saw the adapters at looked shady.

Just use a joystick...so much easier.

All you need is two buttons, a throttle and a twist axis.
