some weapons and vehicles…
booooo ive gone right off the BF series… pffft space crap… gonna kill you with my uber plasma gun, with telescopic sites, and chain reactor side arm…. load of crap if you ask me.
errrr, its set on Earth and errrr, they ain’t plasma guns as far as i know…..and i believe some of the guns in BF2 have those new-fangled things called sights!
come on turks, you know you want to play it really 😉
I’m with Turks here. The reason I think I like BF1942/Vietnam/BF2 so much is that the weapons and capabilities seem real. OK, I know liberties have been taken with magic medics, but that’s for gameplay reasons.
In otherwords, you know that an AK74 is roughly an M16. You know its ain’t going to shoot round corners or destroy a tank. You know a PKM is something that in comparison kicks like a bitch so you have to lie down. The ammo count seems about right. A grenade kills people and soft vehicles. A sniper rifle is accurate but has a low rate of fire. All these are familiar as they are “real”, but more importantly the pros & cons of various weapons and how they relate is also grounded in a sensible reality.
But I have not got a frakking clue if a Death Ray 2000 can take out armour, or if my personal shield is proof against it. I could never get on with Unreal for this reason – yeah, loads of weapons, but I have no clue how they compare. Or whether a blue flashy zappy effect when I shoot it trumps my opponents’ orange spirals.
i see your point……….but i’l still buy it as i’m completely brainwashed by EA/Dice…….
I’m still hoping BF3 is being planned as a return to WW2……….
WeT hopes a BF3 is being planned 😉
The problem with that is that EA probably think they have WW2 covered with Medal of Honor. I doubt they’ll move another franchise back to the same era.

Couldnt put it better myself!
