the forgotten battlefield

Tom#13 · 08-09-2005, 09:17 AM

as i see the servers on my much loved bfv starting to get a little less full, i wondered to myself why has bfv been left beside the rode as its older brother 42 is still popular as ever and its new flash older brother bf2 tops the pc gaming chart. and the more i thought about it the more bfv seems like a half arsed money maker to fill the gap between bf42 and b2. think about it, bfv was not hugley different from 42 exept 4 the setting and graphics, EA looks unlikely to create anymore patches for bfv (but 42 patches r still coming out), there were no expansion packs (despite some peoples hatred of them, there was still alot of the war that could have been included), no demo, and the fact that when it was released work was already well under way for bf2. i feel disapointed and angry as i feel that bfv had alot more potential and could have been a success has ea given it the effort it deserved. bastards

BFV was something to hold the community over for BF2, by all accounts it was considered a weak game that had alot of problems, i thought stock BFV was enjoyable on some occasions but only really played it for POE, which is now going to BF2, once EoD and POE come out for BF2 i doubt if anyone will bother with BFV except for those who dont have the comps to run BF2

yeah, at least there will be a vietnam mod for bf2

yay for EOD! BF2 on piss poor graphics looks better and plays better than BFV on highest! (songuha stalemate)

BFV was the most horrid game Ive ever played. PoE made it somewhat enjoyable, but I like to take it back to 1942 sometimes. And you will still catch me in DC servers.

BFV-good idea, bad execution. i need to find a good realistic nam mod, anyone know some? (preferably for bf2)

BF42 = BF 1
BFV = BF 1.5
BF2 = DC2... err BF2

Beckwith · 08-11-2005, 01:00 AM

BF42= 1/2 FH
BFV= 1/6th EOD
BF2= 2/1 DC

well the best nam battlefield mod i know is EOD. but youl have to wait awhile before the bf2 version comes out. im really looking forward to that, not as much as PR of course. does the bf2 eod mod have a site.
