Battlefield Vietnam

[-Trip-]

What you all think about it then?

A few things a noticed i didnt like from today

Music is a bit much :/
No medic :blink:
Radios changed to much
Not as wide range of weapons, Such as medic SMG

Other then that i like it Needs a patch thow

[Tutonic]

I love it, tearing around in a huey with the music blaring out is quality

The lack of a Medic is a slight dissapointment, I dont think it detracts too much from the game though. Hopefully they'll add the class in a patch. As for the weapons, each class gets to pick from two main weapons and gets to customize their appearance somewhat. I'd say thats plenty

My only gripe is the US Anti-Armour class. Having an M60  and a LAW/M90 basicly turns you into a god of destruction :huh:

All in all its a cracking game

How does it run on your PC? Bit slow on mine

[Tutonic]

Sweet as a nut.

1024x768x32, 2xAA, 4xAF on a Radeon 9700 Pro.

[Gone_Away]

Just to confirm. You don't need to by BF1942 for this correct?

[0ni0n]

no you doont need 1942! runs i bit slow on mine also and i get graphic problems any one with a nvidia card what drivers r u using

[TeaLeaf]

Just got round to installing mine, I'll feed back when I have finshed reading the 'Old Fart's Instruction Manual'.

TL.

[0ni0n]

not that theres much in there, cant believe how little info is in the manual!
also cant believe how poor it runs on my pc got latest nvidia drivers a bench mark of 15000 and i have to run at 800x600

I played about with my settings and cleaned up my HDD, Also i got a different driver i got 5.6.6.4.

And the game runs no problems. I don’t know if E.A puts it in every manual but on page 4 it says to clean your system before use. (Disk Defragmenter etc)

And for the record there is “medic” but only on a few maps. Everyone gets to it.

[Tutonic]

Yea on some maps you actually play as special forces, so the weapons are different and you tend to get given medpacks. Although I haven't actually bothered to use one yet, the weapons are so lethal that if you get hit your pretty much dead...

Just to re-iterate Ninja's point - This is a full game or a mod?

Only reason I say is that I was reading a consumer review on Amazon and they mentioned it was a mod.  Then again when are those reviews ever accuarate.....

Full game. Wait and buy it until you had a first hand look at the LAN.

[smilodon]

It's a complete game in it's own right as Sadako says. However it is aimed mainly at the multiplayer market.

There is a single player element which is mostly a map full of Bots, sort of like CZ. There's no real narative like COD or MOH. In fact I've found it an eye opening experience comparing CS:CZ to BF-V

Sort of like comparing me to Brad Pitt  <_<

Comparing you to Eartha Kitt more like.
