They should fire that Guy Cocker guy that made the front page story. I vaguely remember there was another controversy about his skills last year.

It's so awkward that the article says multiple times it's console exclusive, and there is a PC section for the game.

You'd think there's at least one dude in the staff that noticed such a stupidity...

The game looks great, but im disappointed in 24 player max ferret837
As long as the maps are scaled for it, 24 should be OK. 1942 was the best shooter in the series by about 1,000,000 miles... this makes me so happy.

A low dual-core and a 6800 or something like that.

GS edited the news:

Named Battlefield 1943, the game will not only be another console exclusive, it will be a download-only game for Xbox Live, PlayStation Network, and PC.

Great job.

i like it for the most part. Atfirst I saw it and thought it looked a little cartoony but now im used to it. Now is this download only or will there be a retail box, too? And I'm sure more maps will get released with the three from the start. 12v12 wont be to to bad, but I can wait!

12v12 will be terrible. Maybe on smaller maps like CoD4. If they intend to have BF2 sized maps, and they MUST for it to be a battlefield game, 24 players would be way too spread out. It's NOT looking good. The graphics are impressive, but 24 players on Wake Island...

I'll definitely be waiting for a mod to increase the limit before purchasing this sorry excuse for a battlefield game, which was FOUNDED on 64player maps.

Oh 24 maps? That actually sounds like a lot. How many did the original (1942) have?

dnuggs40
24 player max maps. as in player count. No servers with 64 players :( Hopefully there will be NO level, unlock and experiecne grinding! I want to enjoy the game it its fullest right out of the box! I think the game will flop due to it being released on consoles too. All games made for consoles tend to suck :-\

I'm hoping they meant 24 players for consoles. I would like at least 32 players to be honest.

Smaller maps aren't the battlefield way. It's pretty obvious that 24players is a step back and it's probably because of consoles.

oh yeah :) this is great news.. My only concern is the player cap of 24 for these massive maps, hopefully that will get up to 64 or higher on PC, especially with the huge maps. Smaller maps, 16v16 would work fine but Wake Island? We definitely need more. I'd imagine they'll bring over the squad system in BF2/2142, so it'd make sense. Can't wait

Hey! the Xbox360/PS3 game came out in June. And it is not limited in the way of Iwo Jima, Guadalcanal, and Wake. They have challenges for all the players to get a total 43,000,000 kills and they unlock Coral Sea. My guess is they are going to keep putting in new maps every time they pass a goal. The web is www.battlefield1943.com/. Oh, and it looks like they unlocked it. I think its August 29, 2009 for PC. Unfortunately, I have a Mac. D:
