New BF1942 Map

by Maarten Goldstein Dec 20, 2002 10:18am CST tags: Electronic Arts, Battlefield 1942
Hey how about that, a little holiday surprise from Electronic Arts. They have released a new Battlefield 1942 level, called Coral Sea. According to EA, this level plays best with about 24 people. If you run a server, then there's this special file which will help you run the new map. Here's the full description of the level that EA sent along
Coral Sea is an exciting new map set in the Pacific theater. The action is fast and furious as players test their piloting skills with a total of 24 planes available on the map. The action isn't limited to dogfighting however as each side has a carrier that they need to defend at all costs. To win, you'll need to sink the enemy carrier, and then fly through a buoy that appears amidst the wreckage of the ship. Throw in some land-based AA guns and a defensive gun or two in the mix, and you've got our latest recipe for a great Battlefield 1942 holiday treat!
