Pah...it will never be like the glory days of 1942. That game made me wet my pants with excitement. I have heard '43 is like an open beta test in terms of glitches and its not out on the PC until September :/

I have seen adverts for it when I play Battlefield2. It looks pretty good! But really just a remake of BF1942.

Are there still servers around then?
My mate and I had a blast with that game, the two of us tearing around in jeeps to the sound of Jefferson Airplane...
Yep! Still loads of people playing it.
The addition of music to vehicles was pretty inspired. It didn't help playing the game much, but it made it a lot more cool.
Flying over firefight with Flight of the Valkyrie's on...

I was trying to resist playing BF2 during the day but I might have to go for a quick game or two now.

You two are crazy. Vietnam was terrible compared to '42! Did any of you play the Desert Combat mod for '42?
BF2 was good. I liked the squad & commander ideas. When it worked it worked really well!

I have played loads of online shooter games, from casual to clanplay, and Battlefield2 is by FAR the best game I have ever played.
However, it can be a bit rubbish when there is no proper teamwork. It only works when players play together.

I was lucky to be in a clan when BF2 came out. When we made the switch it was amazing, we could kick the shit out of public servers no problem. Nothing like the sight of 2 full squads flanking a CP with the support of an AH-1 gunship with a f-35 Lightning circling above to take care of any pesky tanks hiding in the hills

Hey invite me to a game next time you seem me online!
I downloaded the demo last week for the xbox360 and I still haven't managed to connect to an EA server. I want to get the full game but the connection problems have really put me off. I thought the desert combat mod for bf1942 was amazing and still play it now and then.

Just got on, run about like a mad person, blew up a tank, road across the hill, killed two enemies by hit and run, leapt out and grabbed a flag! Logged off then bought the game, been playing for about an hour, great fun! The planes are fuckery to fly though but nothing new there...oh yeah no probs connected at all tonight.
It is quite fun, though very glitchy and full of the usual online mute wankers who don't know how to work together.
Blowing up stuff with demo charges is much fun as is shooting some cunt in the head from half a mile away. The rifleman's rifle is a waste of time.

I noticed a distinct lack of voice communication too, might be an idea to see if we can get a few urbanites on together sometime?

Will do. I'll send you a friend request, think I deleted you when I was cleaning up my list recently.

Played the other night and got some good team work going. Was in a four man squad (two guys from Newcastle and an American which made for some funny moments accent wise), the others stopped and waited for each, took up positions covering while one went and flagged, jumped into a jeep together etc. Was very cool and much the way I remember 1942 on the PC being...

BF2 was good when it came out, but was eclipsed by other games. I'll have to check out this 1943.
i havent returned to bf2 for ages.
its still a seriously strong game,it handles so well,the maps are not overcrowded,i get the feeling on bf1943 that the maps are cluttered.

My experience on the 360 is the maps aren't cluttered...about to log on for a bit if anyone's about?
