bf1942 was the last decent game in the ww2 fps genre, now that theyves sucked it dry for the past 2 years, youd expect them to come up with something better.

Nah, bf42 sucked, it was less than decent.  Call of Duty was Decent and UO (the exp for CoD was "cool")  

They aren't going to rip it off any movie... If you watch the video they are historically basing it on a certain squad of actual soldiers.  Is it based around D-Day? yes.  Do many wish there was a pacific campaign?  I'll bet the shirt off my back that many would like a pacific campaign.  But they didn't make it that way so live with it.  If you watch the video you will find it is very realistic.  Even down to the cinematic stuff in the background aswell as the general textures and gameplay.  The sights on the M1 and MG42 look awesome - very realistic - alot better than Call of Duty.  Even though the game is based around the European Theater, I still believe it will have many goodies and suprises for everyone.  I am very interested to get some info and watch some in-game video's about the multiplayer :aok

Medal of Honor Pacifc Assault isn't too bad.  Its a Pacific based game, obviously, and has some pretty good graphics.  So good that I can barely get it to run at 800x600 resolution on my PC.

I'm really looking forward to Day of Defeat in source and what the game will evolve into.


IIRC, the game is based on a specific company in the first few days following the landings.  They use the guys real names and all that jazz.

There is a nice trailer floating around somewhere - the game is on my buy list.

I agree... BF1942?  Great concept... garbage game.
