it could be a nice game, but it would take a lot to take on COD

 

Not true in the gamplay area. If you are speaking of gameplay then the BF series (omitting BC) is leaps and bounds ahead of COD today. If you are speaking of sales, then I would say you're correct.

This is the only game I know that has a chance of destroying the COD series.

-Flying Planes, riding in tanks and Jeeps.

-Multiple map spawn points.

-A larger list of classes

-New physics, including the ability to knock down trees.

OMG I cannot wait! COD is so overrated!

Isn't there only 3 classes? Knocking down trees was in BF: BC. There were Choppers, Tanks, and Jeeps in the BC. Yes, Planes are cool, but I don't really know how they're gonna do in such a small map (24 players). Multiple spawn points were always in BF.

I understand you're saying that COD doesn't have these features, but then why did BF: BC fail when it's at a higher bar than 1943? Clearly 1943 is setting the bar lower (for accesibility, low price point, easier and simpler).

I'm sorry, if you're a console BF fan then you should be looking at BC 2 or MAG.

-Yeah, theres only three classes...I just checked (Sucks).

-The fighter jets will be in the game just like last the last BF1942.

-There has to be 24 players because of console bandwidth limits. Most clan wars on Battlfield were 12 vs 12 anyway.

-The maps will be large enough for fighter jets to roam and bomb.

BF: BC did not set the bar higher than BF: 1942, Desert Combat nor 2. That was actually the worst game in the series. Mag will be nowhere near the splendor that was battlfield 1942. I was a PC BF fan, but I am playing with consoles now, more than ever. I don't have the time to be investing into PC gaming any longer.

 

 

It set the bar higher in terms of console BF's (Modern Combat on PS2 and Xbox), and as I said I'm a fan of the console BF's since I don't have a good computer, and that if you're like me you'll be looking at BC 2 or MAG.

I have to admit I never played 1942 on the PC, but are given what I know from these 2 games, I don't think that 1943 can even be considered an actual sequel to 1942. 1942, correct me if I'm wrong, could support 64 players on a given game (I play 4 vs 4 for clan matches on KZ2, but I still love to fight a chaotic 16 v 16 game in public servers). Battlefield 1942 had big maps. Battlefield 1942 had 5 classes. Battlefield 1942 had Jeeps, Planes, and Tanks.

If you're comparing the PC 1942 to the PC/360/PS3 1943, I say it's a MAJOR step down. They've really gimped the game and made it a casual (not necessarily less fun), smaller, simpler, ready to jump in game.

If you're comparing the Console BC to 1943, it's still a step down. Smaller maps, from what I know no destructible environments (save trees, which were in BC), less classes, and exchanging planes for choppers.

I'm confused, in my eyes 1943 seems extremely far away from the PC 1942, and it's closer to the console BF's (and is still a step down in that aspect as well).

A major step down in BF 1943 is still better than what COD series is offering. You are correct, the series has been gimped because of the bandwidth issues on consoles. Despite all that it will still be superior, because it offers so much.

 



Download only? Damn... Come on Sony, bring those PSN cards to Europe, fucktards!

But I'm also arguing that it's been severely gimped from the BF console franchise's Bad Company which was meant to compete against COD. I don't think EA meant 1943 as a competitor to MW 2 at all.

I'm guessing that they are big fans of full profit. Digital downloads....who knew?

I laughed when he saw the concept of BC. it's not going to be the same game. It will be revolving around the concepts of the olders games with newer physics.



on console it wont destroy Call of Garbage, but on PC it will.

??? BF has always revolved around its meat and bones Conquest mode. The difference between the consoles and PC are the scale and freedom you have with each other, and how much emphasis is given on short rounds.

Warhawk already did what battlefield does but in third person....did that make it sell better?

Warhawk is a good game, but do not place it with games where it is terribly out of its league. Command & Conquer: Renegade was even better than Warhawk.

What now? Warhawk is way out of Battlefield's league. Warhawk is so much better.

 

I agree with the bolded. To me, Warhawk was what I always dreamt Battlefield 2 would be. The multiplayer aspect of 1942 and Desert Combat are what kept me coming back to Battlefield. Warhawk pretty much dominated that game in every way.

I totally disagree.  I though warhawk is not even anywhere as near good as even the first battlefield game

 

 

 

He changed what I wrote to make it sound like I liked Warhawk better than BF. Funny little guy.

 

??? Someone else quoted and added something, I just took note and  agreed with him. I didn't make it sound like you liked Warhawk better than BF at all.
