Battlefield 1943 – AWESOME! (eh…not really)

When I heard today that EA were going to release Battlefield 1943 – 3 of the best maps from 1942 all souped up with the Bad Company physics engine – I was seriously excited.

Then I went and had a look at the trailer here…and I couldn’t get over how good it looked. Classic BF1942 action.

And then I read the small print and my heart sank.

24 players max? You’ve gotta be kidding me. EA what are you doing? What made the various incarnations of Battlefield great was the large-scale action. When you limit it to 12-a-side it removes so much of the dynamic, not to mention intimates much reduced versions of the original maps.
