Battlefield 1943

[CeeJay]

Just downloaded this from the japanese PS network. Good bit of old fashioned battlefied. Plus everything is destructable!



Hopefully some of us can team up online.

Wow, this game is tough. On the front lines its utter chaos. U respawn and die. Also I suck pretty bad. I unload an entire clip into someone and they just turn and get me with one shot.

Good fun, but the 3 maps are all pacific and feel a bit too similar. That and the fact I played them a billion times on BF 1942 already.

They really need to bring out all the BF maps.


Shame you cant play with bots either, tired of getting owned, lol.

This game is the best $20.00 I ever spent

Reminds me of a new age millennium BOLO

Its Halo with non fictional weapons and scenery

I cant wait for this to expand into new maps

This along with orange box are the greatest bargains around

Multiplayer only. I hate spawning and getting wasted in games I'm new to.

 

[ak47]

so do i, but you wont get better without the lesson

 

[CeeJay]

Yeah, but there is a tutorial.

Also, just dont spawn on the base thats in the heat of the action. You can choose your spawn were you spawn. Go to a lonely base, pick up a tank park it on a hill overlooking the action and start racking up kills.

That or become a sniper. You can hide 3 or 4 hundred metres from the hotpsot and pick guys off. This game is tough because you have allow for movment when shooting at moving targets. You have to aim in front and it takes skill and timing. Great fun. I hope they remake all the BF 1942 maps.

 

[ak47]

It makes you wonder why we pay for junk that’s $100.00 on the shelf

This is easily better than 80% of full priced ***les out there

We need more games like this, set in different regions and time

Hectic fun

 

[CeeJay]

I havent played it but apparently battlefield bad company is the modern warfare version of this game. It has alot more maps and is probably not too expensive.

 

[ak47]

i played the demo of that - it was laggy, so i barred it
of course if anything laggy its a fail, but this 1943 is anything but laggy
i heard we got aussie servers for 1943, which explains its GREATNESS in hit detection, and smoothness
it feel like we are all playing on the single machine - like 4 player goldeneye

 

[CeeJay]

Thats sucks. True about this game though, no lag. This quite a feat considering the destructable environments and the constant bombings and fires and smoke pillars.

 

[ak47]

going to play on the coral sea map when i get home
unlocked after 43 million kills per console
4 of my mates will have the game tonight, time to have a blast

 

[CeeJay]

Havent played coral sea yet coz Im on ps3, but Ive heard its planes only so better get those dog fighting skills up to scratch!!

 

[ak47]

i have finally found a game where sniping is perfect!!
none of this look back like cod where u see who got you
i pinged off 8 dudes just then, from the other side of the island, it was so awesome counting in the distance and aiming slightly in front of them so they run into my bullet.
this is halo mp without the sci fi
havent had so much fun online in a non sport ***le since modern warfare
the difference this brings is fun-ness
in cod, it got serious, a kill would frustrate you, and you split your brain apart thinking of the next move and who is around you
1934 is just a fun outright laugh, very engaging, yet tactical - but i am a lone wolf at the moment i suck, so i just ping guys from afar, and sometime get in a vehicle and cause some ruckuss amongst the pros on the frontlines

 

[CeeJay]

Hell yeah! I love finding a good spot, like in a bush or group of trees somewhere (not on top of a hill for all to see) and just waiting. You see infantry running around, other snipers setting up. Take your pick. Sometimes a guy walks right by me and I sort him out with my Katana (japsonly) Hell smetimes a tank strolls by and I give him some dynamite to chew on. I love being a sniper with the japs. When Im the yanks I cant resist the thompson, even though I suck with it.

This game is great fun, we just need more maps......and bring on those germans!!

 

[ak47]

where is the TRF love for this great game?
everyone on this board needs this game,

 

[woosaah]

i'm saving money for my holiday, might get it when i get back from aussie.

Maybe if i get board of cricket, which i doubt

 

[Enguelaz]

been playing this game full time over the last week - wildly impressed with the smoothness of it, even on Japs or US servers. gettin pretty good as a pilot ;o)

trying to get my mates to d/l too so we can form a squad.

about the respawn kill, you know you can chose your respawn flag or respawn with your squad.

long time i didn't have fun like that with a multiplayer game, graphics are amazing and all this at very low price.

highly recomanded!

 

[Olyy]

Can't wait to get my 360 back from the fixers to play this (it RROD'd last week =/ )

 

[CeeJay]

Well, I got sick of playing th same maps over and over so I went and got a cheap copy of BF bad company. Its essentially the same game but set in modern times and with 5 classes and 24 players and controls are pretty much identical. So far I havent experienced any lag at all. Alot of fun and very chaotic. So Far ive only been able to play goldrush but it does hav conquest.

 

[CeeJay]

This game is awsome. heaps of cool maps and the ability to unlock cool weapons online. Still have had no lag after playing all night on full maps!

and all for the same price as BF 1943. I like both alot but prefer modern over WW2.
