Battlefield 1943

re

this is good new for battlefield fans but it still is not BF3,shame:mad:
Basically this is bf 1942 with frostbite engine(destructable environments) so following suite we should see bf3 next with the frostbite engine......EA are just milking it

Its a PSN game on the PS3 so its a budget game - stop expecting such big things from it. Its just a filler until BF3

Why is it posted in the PC section ? I don't care about PS3 games, isn't there a console section here? I don't want BF3 though as it's modern combat and I'm sick of seeking missiles, makes air combat boring.

Are you 100% sure naval combat is back?

Says so on official site, fight by land, sea and air...
 
Absolutely fantastic news :D

We still play the old one weekly, 1942 and Vietnam were the best of the bunch.

What other direction do you expect them to go in ? They've done the Middle east and semi-futuristic, about time they remade the classics.

Those who started playing Battlefield at BF2/2142 wont understand just how good they previous titles are.
 
This just looks like a rather small project that will be available through download services not the next big battlefield project.

BF3 was announced, so it's certainly happening.

BF3 has not been announced by anyone. The only info on BF3 was a "leaked" list of features which said it would be announced either jan 2k7 or jan2k8, i can't remember which. Either way though BF3 has not been announced yet.

Me and my mates had the most fun on 1942 without a doubt on it for long stretches, bf2 was good but never really lived up to what 1942 was for me.
 
Well my first experience of BF games was Bf2142 which I know most people scorn at but I think its a brilliant game, despite the numerous bugs.

I won't be going back in time to use ancient weaponry, give me Battlefield 3 with a all new graphics engine and set either in modern times or the future.

The console feel of this game is just aweful, I don't want my graphics to be on par with already long out of date consoles, i'm a PC and i can run better and deserve better.
 
It actually annoys me that they are milking this franchise so much :(

Why can't they just concentrate on making one great game rather than churning out these!! Fingers crossed it is good though, the trailer looks good but with only 3 maps and 24 player it will last how long? A few months at most probably!
 
bf1942 was one of the best pc games ive ever played and there making such a ****** thing of a sequal is rubbish really. It should be a true sequal.
 
Thought they already did this. I seem to remember playing some of the 1942 maps on an updated engine. Can't remember whether it was vietnam or BF2 though.

Anyway there's no way I'd pay for that. I already own 1942 and played the bejesus out of it so can't see why I'd want to buy a stripped down consolified version.

Er I mentioned PS3 because if its on the PSN then its going to be a budget release :rolleyes:
 
Okay, I thought you meant it was PSN only :p.

Anyways why cant we have a proper 1943, a 1942 with new graphics and none of the features dropped like in this release of 1943 ? :(
 
+1 for the thoughts on this being a stopgap. Only downloadable comments seem to support this view. Afterall, i cant see anyone stopping selling hard copies of games...
