BF1942 Secret Weapons Q&A

STOP BUYING THESE FUCKING SHITTY EXPANSION PACKS PEOPLE. the more you buy the more they'll fuck you over

It really sucks that Dice has to turn out to be a bunch of money-milking pricks instead of genuinely cool game developers like some other dev houses we know, who support the community and promote modding. You can make a lot of money and still be cool to your community, it is possible you know. But whatever, another cash whore in EA's pocket.

Of course... why would they give out mod tools to make mods that would trump their own expansions?

I won't be buying this or RtR, thank you drive thru

*my stupid tangent starts here*

Seeing what total pricks the DICE people are makes me appreciate companies like iD software a lot more. I thought some really great things would be coming out of the bf1942 community, but sadly I can see the community will die before it's given a chance to breathe. Maybe at end of the year when real game engines like HL2 and/or doom3 come out. where the game controls aren't weak, the interface isn't glitchy, the customer's needs are understood and of importance to the company.

I can't wait to see the sales of secret weapon. I was one of the first ones to go out and buy RtR, that shit 20 dollar mappack with a few extra vehicles.

I kind of have a personal life, so I can only invest my time in one game at a time, and as of right now I haven't played bf1942 in about 2 weeks. There aren't any worthwhile mods out really. DC is very immature, and by the looks of things it's going to be too late. I'm bored by war games anyways. I wanna shoot a cacodemon >:)

Oh dear, look at the AA tank: http://www.homelanfed.com/images/jcal/sweapons4.jpg

The similarities between this and free mods are now getting creepy... :\

BTW, in addition to the quality mod that is DC, check out this FH teaser: http://www.bf1942files.com/file.info?ID=13247

See, it's not that hard to make and even balance a bunch of new vehicles and weapons. By the time the next expansion pack is out, the mod community will be a generation past where they are now. This pack is coming one way or anothing, but I can only hope that the mod community keeps EA and DICE on their toes so we don't get another glorified map pack like RTR.

To see them milking more expansion packs rather than fixing such a simple yet important thing like the chat lag is a great irritation. EA is at the helm of this ship, so we've got to blame them first unless told otherwise.

Although I think Objectives should have been more common in the original BF1942, this sounds like a promising addition.

Here is hoping that they release the damn tools though. =/

all interviews should be this good. all the right questions and all the right answers and no bullshizt. sounds like SW will be a hoot! /me plans to buy

Imho the chat lag is the worst bug that bf1942 has had. I will not buy another Bf1942/DICE game if it's not fixed.

I've often wondered the same thing. EA is the one holding the checks after all, though.
