both render decently...awesome selection of vehicles, intense tactical combat in a lan environment...mods mods mods..

yet im strangly drawn back to 1942...why..

has to be the no fly zones GRRRR drives me crazy in bf2 to not be able to fly in a line for 2 secs.

bf1942 is the best.In Bf2 is lots of bugs,bunnyhopping and cheaters ;/ etc.

I like BF1942 more... it's more fun then the new one. I like WW2 games.

I would say BF1942 has just as many cheaters, percentage wise of cheaters vs normal players, in my opnion BF2 is still a bit buggy, especially with the server select and filtering, the graphics in game are far better of course and make the game more realistic if you have the hardware to play it lagg free.

Well, I don't know about the cheaters, I only play it with bots and friends

i hardly ever play against bots, they're too predictable and easy

Well, if you set them to the highest ingelligence, it wont be easy to kill them.

Then that's just simply playing against an aimbot with no delays, There is no bot out there in my opnion that you could play to get better

I prefer BF1942 because.. my computer can run it! and BF2 is a bit too intensive. That doesn't say much about the inherent traits of either, but this is my opinion anyway right?
I like WW2 games like return to castle wolfenstein and bf1942 more than futuristic things because I like historical things, and I like objective based fps's. When I first played bf1942 I was on dial up so killing people was pretty difficult, but I could still capture flags and so forth, and even though I haven't had dial up for a long time, killing people still isn't very important to me.

Btw what's the lowest connection rate you need to play BF1942 online, but without lagging?

dunno, never tried BF1942. Battlefield 2 was a whole lot of fun though (if u take away the bugs)

I actually prefer CoD over all war FPSs

I dont like it couse in CoD you can't enter vehicles and BF is more massive (there are often a lot more players in the game) than in CoD.

Even when i do play BF2, i usually stay on the ground or i might enter a tank if i'm feeling lucky. Other than that, i never do much with vehicles. Probably why I like CoD more.

The only game i really used vehicles in was Halo.

In its time bf1942 was alot better. It was coded alot better, netcode wasnt too shocking (but still pretty dodgy) - and for its time graphics where fine. BF2 is just a money making machine. Dont like it at all.

bf1942 is my favourite, flying was excelently coded
