Big question is, what does the game offer apart from different maps, weapons and vehicles. For example, will the full building destructability and revive systems that will be in Bad Company 2 make it into this game....?

"We've also added something called "non griefing areas" in the home bases, so if you try to base-rape/grief in your base you won't get any points for it. You can still do it, but it will be literally pointless"
But people will still do it out of pure bloody mindedness, i'm afraid just making it literally pointless is not good enough. |

Did Van Dyke actually say LOL? Was it just a flat "LOL" or did he go "L, O, L?" The mind boggles.
Also, "Non griefing areas?" Surely now that griefing is the only reason to be in there you achieve the exact opposite. Pure Griefing Areas.

"Wow... some of that was a waste of time! I want to know if I can drive the Aircraft Carrier damnit!"
Magic 8 Ball says "Signs point to no." @Cragtek Ah that does explain it. I actually said "LOL" to a girlfriend once when I got into Everquest on my spanky Pentium 400. It being 1999 she just looked at me like I was mad. Course it turned out she was right but thats another story.

Never mind mate. We'll just have to look forward to Battlefield 3 being the real deal. 1943 really does just seem to be Battlefields slightly slow cousin that you can just stick in the corner with a controller in hand. I'm sure it'll be a blast and a great example of what XBLA can deliver. Shame they didn't look at what Warhawks doing and have a think about it though. |

Yeah I should have said "What Warkhawk did" I suppose :P
I just think that BF'43 seems to share a lot of the basic gameplay that Warhawk offers but minus some of the little flourishes that makes Warhawk so 'morish'. Run around shooting, drive around shooting, and fly around shooting! Its a shame that they don't seem interested in developing it any further that this one map. @8bitMofo Dick.

Hmmm I sounded to me that they've kept the squad/ chat system from bad company, not great when playing with friends, and I imagine not great when organising people around on map's used to 64 people running around instead of 24.
Still getting this day one, but it wasn't much to ask to be able to talk to your whole team this time round, even a hold 'insert button' command to talk to everyone on your team would have done! |

Gotta say I'm a little disapointed in some of the answers, but considering this was a "spontaneous" (I think Patrick said) game development, I can forgive them. I expect BF:BC2 to have a lot more advancements though guys [DICE], you've heard all the complaints I am sure, and I'm already feeling super-hyped about the medic coming back.
Please do map packs for 1943! I'd buy 'em. |

'DICE talks dates, betas, and hilarity.'
Dates: 'Er, summer. And September.' Betas: 'There aren't any.' Hilarity: 'I shot a jeep, and it, like, exploded. Rad!' Fair play for getting such luminaries to fit you in to their busy schedules, but this reads more like a transcript of a press conference than an interview. A tad oversold? |
