Anyone buying it?  Might pick it up on Wed (know a wee shop that releases before the high street chains), 'twas just wondering.  The idea of flying a Huey appeals to me :D

i never picked up 1942, but some of the promo vids/screens looked awesome.  But everytime i pick up a new game, my 256 DRR always gets in the way of me enjoying it.  If i had better hardwear i would deffenitly pick it up. Veitnam's env appeals to me alot more than 1942s

I haven't played 1942 in ages, but it looks pretty sweet, and I haven't had a Vietnam game yet, so yeah.

Nah, UT2k4 is a poor shadow of Battlefield as far as vehicles are concerned. I'm beginning to lose faith in Epic. I'll be picked up BF:V the minute it hits store shelves.

do not torment the sleep deprived artist, he may be vicious when cornered,
in case of emergency, administer caffeine to the artist,
he will become docile after that,
and less likely to stab you in the eye with a mechanical pencil

There was a single player element in the first BF1942 game - however its worth noting the shoddy AI that came with it (you won't get the best possible experience from the game unless you play online, as with Quake 3, UT2k3/4 or any other game of a similar nature).

Perhaps, but does BF:V scream HOLY SHIT when you score 6 kills in a row?

It's extremelly dificult to control an helicopter... wait... let me rephrase that... it's extremelly dificult to acurately control an helicopter!

The infantary class got totally mixed up, for example, the "anti-tank" infantary class has a much better machine gun than the "assault" infantary class. Tanks are much weaker now (not sure if that's a plus or a minus) and the single-player is a bit worse than in the original. That said, I believe even with these flaws it's a pretty damn good game but only if you play it in multiplayer. Singleplayer is... a bit fustrating. :(

Can BF:V beat Eve of Destruction or whatever that Nam mod for 1942 is called?
lol wtf

 
UT2k4 is overrated... As far as I've seen, the engine only had a slight facelift (unlike FS, for instance :D), the vehicle support is nothing UT2k3 didn't have (except they were too lazy to make more vehicles and stick a couple of maps in), and frankly, I don't think 6 CDs help it either. 40 out of ~60 maps will be recycles from 2k3, the new modes still (probably) won't live up to the old Assault UT had...

In BF:V I trust ;)

It should, what with being a professional effort and all.  From what I've read, the choper support it better.
