 Beware May 16, 2007

Since the launch of BF2 Vanilla they launched Special Forces. This was written by a different team and is a bit laggy unless you have a top notch PC. Then they sold booster packs being Armored Assault and Euro Forces, these were good but as most people did not buy it as they were young and did not have credit cards the servers using these maps were even at the beginning sparse. Today no servers use these maps which is a disappointment, as I bought both boosters twice for me and my son and may as well threw the money in the bin. Special Forces still has a healthy sever list as does the BF2 Vanilla. Overall a fantastic game.
After over 2 years this is still the best game ever June 10, 2007

This is why PC's where made, so all you need now is a PC with some decent graphics power I think at least the NVIDIA 6600GT, a reliable internet collection of at least 1 meg and this game, then you can just locked the door and say bye to the real world and hello to Battlefield 2. I once heard a story that someone died in Japan because they where so addicted to online gaming that they stopped doing anything else like eating and sleeping because they couldn't find the time between there gaming so after a few days they starved to death. I don't know if this story is true but if it is then I'm willing to bet this was the game they where playing.
This game is so good in the long term it will even save you money because you will begin to realise one day once you learn from experience that there will never be any point in buying a new game ever again because you wont be willing to ever play it instead of this game, any future consoles will also be pointless for this same reason and its FREE to play online as well can you believe it what a barging and its 10 time better than any game you would have to pay to play online
I have owned this game for around 2 years now and still it's the only game in its class even BF2142 does not come close and Call of Duties are a joke compared to this LOL game of the year how the hell do COD's keep winning game of the year, was BF2 not included in recent game of the year comptitions on the account it was so good compaired to all other games that they decied to not class it as a game and are yet to reailise still what it is or something
As for availability, when you usually hook up to play most games online when its fairly new and at its peak of popularity you find what 500 maybe 600 servers playing it then it dies down to 200 or 300 hundred maybe less. BF2 always at present has over 3000 servers available and you can always find a server to suit how you want to play, the only problem is that often your favourite server is full.
And this version of all versions is the daddy even though I already had the game I brought this version again for the extras, this is every official release this game has, so more maps more weapons what more could you possibly ever want.
This is better than Crysis or ET Quake Wars IMHO October 23, 2007

I have been playing this game for nearly two years and I have to agree with the previous positive comments and say, so far, its the best first person shooter ever made. I used to play the Wolfenstein series online and wish for some of the things this game offers.
To begin with it is hard to stay alive, but after a month you should be getting much better at it and start scoring better. There are plenty of servers running online games even now two years on. It is worth playing the single player game for practice, or start a server of your own on your PC [easy] for special practice like flying jets and choppers.
It is true, you do need a fairly good machine to get the best possible gameplay, but you can enjoy the game even with most of the settings turned right down. The previous comment about the gameplay being poor is frankly rubbish. If you have a top end PC then you can turn it all up and enjoy excellent graphics as well as brilliant gameplay.
All the vehicles in this game are driveable and the developers have gone to the trouble of making their movement as realistic as possible. You will get a chance to fly jets and helicopters, drive tanks, armoured personel carriers, jeeps, anti-aircraft vehicles and boats.
The game also allows for a level of teamplay missing in every other game by providing in game communications for players who join squads to chat with each other, commanders who can talk to the squad leaders, drop supplies, vehicles and artillery, and assist them with radar surveillance. When you are killed, if no medic revives you, you respawn 15 seconds later at your choice of friendly flag or on your squad leader's position.
On top of this there is a 'career' based scoring structure which saves your scores and a million other statistics online for you to review and even plan your route to earning rewards and medals. You start with a basic load-out of weapons but after your scores increase you will be promoted and certain new weapons will become available to 'unlock' which you can then use on the battlefield.
So there you have it, a game which is over two years old, still attracting new players, still keeping the interest of veteran players, still hasn't been beaten in terms of gameplay, what more could you ask?
GO ON, BUY IT!! See you on the battlefield [my nickname is Granpa$kunk]
the best game ever October 19, 2007

this is the best game ever made for any console. i have a ps3 and battle field is just so much better the only problem is that you have to have a fairly high powered computer to play it otherwise the load times are too long. the only reason it is not in the chrarts is because not many people know about it and stick to dull medal of honour. It is just such a good game and anyone looking for a first person shooter should buy it straight away>

Played it for a while, but came to my senses and un-installed it.
However, I forgot that I don't have to play with complete idiots!
I forgot about single player. Might be worth installing it for that...
This game is over-rated and all I can do is pre-warn other gamers like me, who want an enjoyable experience, as opposed to this which is more of a chore than anything.
I know this review will be out of place with everyone loving the "great graphics" which is what games are all about these days...Who needs good gameplay anyway?....
But I'll stick with BF1942, it's more fun to play, and better balanced.
