    I wonder if it would be as good without the soundtrack! Looks nice, but no better than Battlefield or DC. Unless it has dramatic gameplay improvements maybe this should be another expansion / mod. Still I have gotten so much mileage from BF1942 i have no problem shelling out for another game.. Unfortunately 'Battlefield vietnam desert combat' doesn't have the same ring to it!!

    It is not mearly just another mod to a brilliant BF game.

    BF:V has totally reworked the Refractor2 engine [Engine that BF runs on] allowing a lot more. You will be able to shoot out the side of the hueys and moving cars and trucks. Better fire effects for that Napalm goodness and also bump mapping and the like so that metal will shine :)

    Will blow the pants off you lot i say ;)


    Expect it in 2004. :D

    Sometimes i think the difference between a mod & a new game is the same as difference between re-working or re-designing a game engine... ie re-working(or modifying) and re-designing as in "New".. most of the changes you are talking about are cosmetic and dont actually add to the gameplay.. allthough i suppose bump mapping will ease the strain on lower spec pc's. Id like to see some 'hamburger hill type maps where you spend hours on the offensive, and if they can bump up the max number of players online, there is no reason why epic cinema conflicts cant become the stuff of BF Vietnam!
