Want to play the best war simulation? Go play the ancient Operation Flashpoint and pray that the spring 2006 Operation Flashpoint 2 deadline will be met with the best war multiplayer simulator ever conceived. Want to play a release player war game that matched the experience of Medal of Honour: Linked Assault? Then go play Call of Duty and get the expansion pack Call of Duty: United Offensive. Want to the play the best SWAT type tactical one on one? Then go get Half-Life 2 and play Counter-Strike. Fancy a futuristic sci-fi multiplayer with huge maps? Then get the latest Unreal Tournament. So what else is there? Well to be honest Battlefield 1942 is straight up probably one of the best multiplayer sports meeting I have played, but be warned, the simulation experience does call for infinite amounts of patients and the game is extremely buggy to install. There is very small excellent technical support except for what the community offers, updates can be patchy, people end up can’t playing it, and it suffers from fatal spawn point simple target syndrome that has rendered many of the maps unplayable… but new maps are updated, but just don’t expect the BF1942 community to be as open as let’s say STEAM. The bottom line here is that even release player mode is not supported. The game comes pretty much as it is served so expect to spend more than a day, maybe a week, to get it to work on your machine with lots of google searches for your conundrum. The solutions should be found in forums troubleshooting guides. Be prepared for discs that don’t appear to like firewalls, anti-virus checkers and other social class processes. This is the game of sports meeting in terms of installation bugs and crashes. In small – Requires broadband INTERNET.
Release player like we said is not supported. Multiplayer is one huge CAPTURE THE FLAG, but what a game of CTF! Conundrum straight away is the lack of classes that looks restrictive but it is in fact okay, with five types of soldiers to choose from – sniper, machine gun, rockets, medic, engineer… so it is closer to Team Fortress than Operation Flashpoint that allows full configuration of up to twenty classes. Having said that it does not reduce the impact of the game, but does leave the realm of simulation, deviating into more Unreal Tournament territory where there is very real likelihood of just leaving your team behind and going on a frag-a-thon across the map. If you are into that sort of thing then maybe the more recent, but certainly not as excellent, Battlefield Vietnam, can offer you that type of solo bush mission multiplayer experience like Far Weep with lesser graphics, but if it is Treasure Harbor, Petersburg, German Forests, French Country, Operation Overlord, multiplayer stylishness, where you can pilot lots of vehicles, and use a small team commands, then sir, Battlefield 1942 is really what you should be playing across that 1MB connection you got jacked into that modem.
So limiting by its nature of being a multiplayer only game, with a hard install, that is quite ancient’ish by today’s standards, still manages to grant the best World War II multiplayer entertainment you have ever seen with Operation Flashpoint beating it for realism and detail as a simulation, but this is the war game that people play online, and it still has quite a large community, meaning plenty of 60 (30/30) servers are still up and running with Battlefield 2 coming out sometime in 2005 (hopefully early) you can still live with getting this just because it offers world war II as you want to play it, on-line. I must say that even though I am an avid CS:S player, this one has stolen it for a bit. Battlefield 1942 really is worth it, after you get it running, and after you have the patients to in fact play it like a solider —- crawl for 2 minutes before sniping 3 enemy over the space of 10 minutes with guys above you on a score of 44… patients is the virtue while playing this if you want to win…. Or if you have the skill, grab a bomber and go drop some bouncers on a spawn building for mass kill. In person I prefer to play to the sneaking sniper. You know I 0wned u. ?
Pros:
- Multiplayer must-have.
- Honestly realistic simulation experience that you will play again and again.
- The only World War II simulation worth playing on-line right now.
- Excellent game engine. Solid playing.
- Replaces Operation Flashpoint as best on-line war simulation game.
- Really huge player numbers of servers.
Cons:
- Harsh reality of enduring install problems and updates.
- Expensive.
- Needs broadband.
- Spawn points have exploit bugs.
- No voice-com.
- Not much of a team communication interface either.
- 2002 graphics… but still nice. Models need work.
- There is a bit of a learning curve.
- Not as vast as Operation Flashpoint.

If you loved you’re battlefield 1942 game, then you’ll like this expansion pack. It adds alot of difference, In some missions you are special forces, special forces have new wepons like the german mauser k98 grenade launcher attachment to you’re rifle, and the british shotgun… just to name a few.
And new vehicles, like the german Sturmtiger, which is a tiger with an attached naval gun, And The Linked sherman tank with rockets, which is a sherman tank with rockets you could shoot from a top attachment ( excellent for takeing out whole hordes of tanks and foot soldiers.) Also new jets and planes like the German Horton HO 229, a jet bomber thats quick as lightning, and the linked F-85 goblin, a new small jet that lays down heavy fire.
The new levels are awsome, some hide gadgets, like the jet pack or player guided missiles.
Over all a very nice game. they should make more battlefield sports meeting for MAC.
The multi-player in the game is awsome to, but the other guy already said everything there is to say.
