    Did you even look at the Video ? It's wake Island !

    I am not a big fan of that map but there is no denying it is one of the most popular maps for BF , therefore the vast majority seem to think it is a good map .

    Wake was a great map but they couldn't leave it as it was, they had to dumb it down for consoles it seems.

    'Wake Island used to be one team defending the island and the other team attacking it. Now we've made it so there are two carriers and both teams are attacking the island, just to make things fair.'

    Seriously what made Wake fun was attacking or defending not this bullshít . Welcome to consolefield 1943.

    :eek:

    umlimited ammo..christ's sake...:mad:

    well to be fair what happened in bf2 bfv and 1942 in you ran out of ammo you either go to an ammo crate or pick up someones kit tbh i don't see how this will have any ill effect on the game at all

    regarding three maps its expected to be priced at €20 which im more than happy to pay for a game that looks this good, so what if there is only three maps be honest and say how many maps you actually play in bf2

    also there will be more maps released in the future as down loadable content fair enough you will have to pay for them, but as long as you can have a good laugh on ts/vent with your mates i couldn't care less

    Having played all 3 BF's so far I think this will be pretty decent. Graphics look decent, maps are decent, ok there are only 3 but so what. All this has to do is capture 50% of what BF42 was about and it will be a winner.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 14,768 Mod ✭✭✭✭Dcully


    Looks like a hell of a lot of fun.
    If its anything like BF1942 it will be superb.
    As for 3 maps only,in fairness once the 3 maps are top class who cares?
    Infinite ammo, again no harm in this, its all about fun.

    out in june on consoles and pc in SEPTEMBER


    we have been forsaken :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,475 ✭✭✭✭Blazer


    Fcuk u EA :mad:

    PC made the battlefield series what it is and they go off and do this.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,475 ✭✭✭✭Blazer


    And now I know why they;'re doing it.
    Simple..a lot of pc gamers have xbox or ps3..
    So why not delay the PC game so we get sick of waiting for it and buy it on either console.
    Then when it's released to PC we buy it again..fcukin bastards :mad:

    Looks great but the fully destructable environment could be uber-taxing on the system. Should be tonnes of downloadable content...

    Do you guys still buy these pos games? Seriously EA are rip off merchants, if you want to rule out disappointment then dont buy EA.

    They release games when they clearly arent finished, the bullet reg is terrible but nobody notices due to them hogging vehicles. Add onto the fact that they make you pay for additional content which any decent games company would just release for free (Take TF2 for example).

    EA are money grubbing whores, they provide nothing fresh and just polish up what you've already played before and you lap it up every time =/

    If you dont buy their games, they will be forced to change their ways :D

    just to point out many 'decent' game companies charge for dlc, and EA do release free dlc's such as the one available for battlefield bad company

    conquest mode

    community map pack


    both free

    I am not a big fan of that map but there is no denying it is one of the most popular maps for BF , therefore the vast majority seem to think it is a good map .

    Wake Island regardless of its content is the best base design for how a conquest map should be layed out, it allows bottle necks, flanking intense armour/infanty combo's and trumps teamwork above all else. It's not too big that players could run off to some corner and never run into anyone, nor is it too small that players are not given a chance to stop and formulate a plan. (BF2's airforce made things a tad more difficult)

    Much like how De_dust became the best base design for counter strike's de mode.

    Not sure if its a good idea moving both sides to aircraft carriers.

    more importantly will it go the 1942 route and have the carriers controllable (and sinkable) or will it opt for the battlefield 2 route and have them unsinkable and unmovable?

    Yay! At last a release date.. July 8th.. Can't wait!!

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,761 ✭✭✭✭Winters


    As per Acey Bongos
    To clarify, BF1943 will be availble on Xbox LIVE Arcade next Wednesday (July 8) for 1200 MS Points.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,698 ✭✭✭✭BlitzKrieg


    damnit I only just got bad company last week and now I gotta get something new.


    I'll hold off until it confirms carriers are sinkable :D

    Ill hold off until it comes out on the PC. Who knows, maybe they'll make the carriers sinkable in the PC version?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,643 ✭✭✭0ubliette


    This game is a joke.

    Batlefield vietnam recieved a patch that included remakes of all pacific maps plus one new pacific map all remade in the BF:V engine for absolutely FREE back in the day. Now they want to do pretty much the same thing but charge you 20 quid? Youd be a ****ing chump to buy it


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,424 ✭✭✭jonski


    Is there any word on when/if it will be coming to PC ?

    September (from DiCE) They said that they need an extra couple of months as the PC version isn't a port from the console version and so needs more development time.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 954 ✭✭✭Hurricane-Dean


    Does anyone know when its coming out for the PS3? I saw July in the States but I don't think it will be the same here.

    Brilliant game, i love the dualshock feature on my controller, and when a plane flies overhead you actually feel like a plane is flying overhead.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,181 ✭✭✭✭Jim


    Been loving this game as well, easily worth the price. Pity DICE said recently that they have no plans to release and new content or maps :/
