I was browsing though Electronic Art's webpage and I have noticed that they have releaced an offical mod for Battlefield Vietnam.

http://www.eagames.com/official/battlefield/vietnam/us/editorial.jsp?src=ww2mod

I was skeptical at first with the huge download but since I have gotten cable and gone wireless, the download just took only a few minutes to download (Hey I am running on 11 Mbps on wireless :p )

The Mod basicly takes advantage of the game engine that BF Vietnam is built uppon. The link will lead you to more discriptions and comparisons :).

Only 2 Fractions (That I can tell) that are advalible in the mod are the Japanese and the United States.

Yep, I was reading about it on planetbattlefield the other day. It's BF1942 in the new engine, plus flamethrowers. And all the enhancements you could expect from the BF:V engine. :)

It's no good having a WWII mod unless you can be the Germans.

A mod to make it like every other FPS.:rolleyes: I wish they would make more FPSes that don't; A, take place in WW2 or, B, take place in the future.

So what kind of FPS do you want? lol

Of course, if you have BFV why use it to play WWII? Just play RtR.

I didn't know they improved the BF:1942 engine to make BF:V. When I first read this thread title and I thought "Why not just play BF:1942". But now I understand. :)

If you want to play WWII, play Battlefield 1942.

So you don't want to take advantage of the features the BF:V engine provides? Such as passengers able to shoot. More foliage to hide in gives infantry a bit of a better time too.

Plus flamethrowers. :devil2:
