Shame they're going back in time that far, but a new one is well overdue!
 
The only way i think i would be happy with this game is if they do it similar to BF1942 in that full naval battles are possible. It seems as if every new BF game dumbs it down by reducing number of classes or vehicles. If this BF game has naval combat similar to BF1942 then it will be amazing.
 
Might be ok i suppose. As long as they sort out the useless hit detection from previous games.

Its download only i see, with 3 maps that are "destructable".
 
It'd be nice if they added at least the squad stuff from the recent games, if not the commander bit. And decent hitboxes/damage models. And a decent variety of vehicles (bombers, dammit). And that 24 player limit is only a console thing.

Still, I always felt I missed the boat not getting into BF2, so I'll stay hopeful for this.
 
Looks alright, but 24 players? Seriously it should be 64 on the PC. What also worries me is this will be sold through Xbox Live and PSN as well, I'm not too sure if this is going to be released as a full game.
 
there's only the US marines and the Japs by the looks of things, so they've probably just re-made the pacific maps, tweaked a few models and went there you go! pay us some money and download :)
 
Considering they shifted over a million copies of BF2 on the PC I'm absolutly astounded they didn't follow that on, sure there's money in consoles, but they had that genere by the balls on PC.

If it has the combat system of BF2 and the scale on 1942 I'm sold.
 
This isn't the news the majority of battlefield users wanted to hear and as mentioned looks like they are deserting the pc as leading format.

3 maps, up to 24 players and who the hell want's to go back in time to use 60 year old weaponry ?

What a disgrace.

I think it looks good but like others slightly dismayed to see that they've gone back to WW2 as I was hoping for a more modern setting. Look forward to it none the less though!
 
I see it now, better than nothing i guess.


My only question is why isnt the pc getting bfbc2, if this work then the frostbite engine also works on pc's
