Battlefield 1942 vs Battlefield V: The Opening Scenes Compared 

Eeyup

Its the feeling i mostly have at every EA game, the graphics and sound are amazing but thats it. I recently played uhm.... Anthem (i really forgot the name and had to google it, the only thing i remembered was the Javelin suits), Athem looks great to fly around is really funny, but thats it, a generic backstory almost the same missions over and over again. Present EA Games are mostly very good looking 3D Panoramas.

Could've been better if it was that way

I am in the movie

That's because BF 1942 IS "THE GAME".

I don't really like how many developers today doesn't really cared about the gameplay and story just graphics. Just to make them look great, but in reality it doesn't make the game look any better.

Battlegroup 42 with even more tanks and ships: OOOOOHHHHHHH!!!!!

@@privateerbouncher9622 DAMN yeah

Battlefield 5 makes you understand and feel for the soldiers of ww2. Not just another shooter sandbox. Respect the battles that took place before 1941 because ww2 started in 1939. Okay?

And this bad(

No ea and dice would fill it with gender politics and micro transactions

yeah honestly it's better if it stays in the past, can't get ruined that way.

Wake up EA!

BF 1942 Legend!

Battlefield 1942 Remastered Edition: On stock in 2042

Just they way we like it oooorah

great comment woable

yeah ww2 with an one armed cyborg woman

@@utkumat the game doesn't even have that type of customization in it I have been playing since launch and enjoy bfv

Great comment

lol

Lol

Lol you just literally mad emy day sir.

Still better than the game made in V

lmao

Ahh the times when ramming a Destroyer with a carrier was priceless. Watching the enemies spawing on it jump off in fear lol

But do we have a one armed, claw hand, gay/transsexual Female with wild colours all over her face that is the leader of an entire army?

Carrier is love.. carrier is life

Carrier and battleships are all we need

You can even drive a submarine!

Feera Zerno ye? What ya tryna say?

@@xatte9038 The Bf1942 intro filled me with Pride While the BFV intro filled me with emotions

True. Because that’s the point of the entire game. It tries to show the emotional struggle more than the struggle of combat.

@@not_so_weird Yeah. That doesn't sell we'll when it's a game focused on Competitive FPS Combat. In other words, the emotional struggles are completely unnecessary for a game based around nothing but multiplayer anyway. Not only that but they screwed up every War Story but ONE. And that was the The Last Tiger. (Or some shit like that) it's hard to see the emotional struggles when you completely disregard history. A woman suffering hypothermia throws a Nazi around a cabin like he's a pillow. A Convict becomes a demolition specialist because, well, he can use bombs. Duurr. The game just SUCKS. BF1 caused me to walk away from DICE. BFV made me put a restraining order on the series altogether.

Im cool with that. They're not trying to glorify WW2 as something cool and glorying

Also its the only game with driveable vehicles that can have as many players ride on them as you can fit. ....also cant beat mod support and 200 player servers with truly massive open maps

@@Phenixtri I think someone should start a GoFund me to remaster 1942.

Agreed thats actually a good idea. It would also be a genius method for the community to one up the pc assholes at dice quite literally with their own games.

That game from 2002 will have more content than the new one forever because *the community* is *still* making new content for it (and they see no reason to stop). The new one will get abandoned by everyone after a few years when EA decides to pull the plug...

100% agree with you on this ...... hell im still dreaming of remaster mod for 1942 that adds all the graphical bells and whistles like the so called levolution for example. It IS very much feasible from a tech. standpoint imho

I was just thinking that, I was gonna say it sounds like Shire music

@@brandonproductions8401 It reminded me of the music used in the final scene with the piece named "The Grey Havens". It's really good btw

Really???

It's like they forgot what Battelfield is about. They keep trying to maie it more Hollywood each year

My favorite thing about battlefield five is the amazing soundtrack. It adds so much to the game.

@Deutsch Gopnik lmao your gaming experience must be sad

@Dimitri Blyat I'd still play a game even if graphics sucks, a game with great graphics doesn't always mean it's a great game. Take the Half-Life spin-off "Hunt down the Freeman". Yeah, a game with great graphics (in most of the levels) but trash gameplay. Heck, I had more fun playing HL1 than that

@Dimitri Blyat No! Cod1 Remastered

@@re57k A good example is The Last Of Us 2: The graphics are nice, but it's still a golf game.

@@nike2136 me

true in BFV the music is ok but more depressing

It's called immersion, that's what soldiers felt when their country was dragged in a war no one wanted.

Andrew Saldivar ye war is gud bruhh le epic

Niggas liked bf1s dark and gritty tone, so we got a depressing and dark intro for bfv, now you don't like it? I mean I loved 1942 but looking back now the intro is just the battlefield theme playing over some vehicles moving, a few explosions and a para drop

Kenny Gudz it is still better than BFV shit, which is not even giving feelings, it’s just boring.

Tbh when I played 1942 of always go for the warships then drive around the island to ram the enemy ship after sinking it and run away still greatest game

Boi bf 1942 is mostly on island bf5 is on continent so ther no warships

There was a sub in BF 1942?

I think there was on the midway map or hawai or iwo jima, never used it personally tho

@@FireOccator Yes there were subs. Could dive and fire torpedos. Was funny as the whole BF1942 was. BFV is just a cashcow for a generation of players that never know how funny and entertaining games could be.

LOL

yeah, 2 are runnig with players all the time you can find them in: www.gametracker.com/search/bf1942/?

@@FlyingGrimaud, yes they are too many servers still up. The server called AX is the most popular one.

We need more player to play the game

@@phillipebolduc6947 I would play but I ain't spending money. Can I get it for free?

my take is that they didn't want to sort of 'glorify' war with all the death and explosions and chaos (for BF5), but instead tell stories about how war impacts an individual socially, physically and emotionally

@Ethan Well I guess that is a good point that I didn't think about as most other studios that do WW2 would over glorify it as well, but BF5, if that is what the devs aimed for then good job but they should tone down the death screams

@Ethan Another sad truth but WW2 especially the Nazi German army as a lot of military devisions were getting fucked over in more ways than we are told, as well as inspiring conscripts with false hope

@@Tucher97 unfortunately the war stories were pretty shit apart from the tiger one

@Cassu6 Yea I will say the war stories were disappointing aside from the Last tiger as that one made me a bit depressed as it was sad that a number of german soldiers were thrown under the bus BY THEIR OWN NATION, but the rest I do not really remember, aside from two soldiers demolishing an airfield and hte african soldiers being treated as shit wanting to prove their worth as that one was damn disappointing however Telemark was already but albiet meh but I can understand why that one was made to tell teh players that "Hey the german army was attempting to make nukes" but really I would had prefered atleast 1 mission of potentionally of each class, maybe have a campaign where you are a gunner in a bomber but then suddenly oh hey it went from screen shooter to fly the bomber itself while having various parts broken

I already done that to enemy carrier

lol watching the enemy jumping off is just funny

Games Cooky cod:ww2 was the badest ww2 Game but you are right BfV is bad

Luca Lode I loved CoD for cool single player, now, they have failed even Multiplayer.

@@zerofun4948 I mean mw isn't so bad

wanna talk about COD vanguard?

Amazing game

They are the same things lmao

Ashton Kushroller at least you made an original joke

Pride, honour, glory and courage are all emotions

lmao no

Yeah, bf v is sucks

@@bigweld3001 it actually is

Yep pity it was all pre rendered not actual gameplay

That's not how 1942 looks like, that's the problem. Bf5 actually looks like how it does in the opening scene so it makes it better

What horrors?

“A more serious point of view” when? When London was attacked by humongous gun toting airships? Or perhaps when the French used a massive titan-like tank to beat the Germans at Verdun?

Brando Lebean You do know that those gunships actually existed right? London was attacked by them multiple times

Me too

I just started... and im loving it

but then again the 1942 trailer makes you want to play the thing showing what you can do, the BFV trailer is like a anti war propaganda film on how war changes a man into a beast blablah. I mean I just want to play thats all...

Lol do you even play bf 1942

I mean in graphics and story telling. BFV is going win in that area then battlefield 1942

@@Jump-Shack Yeah but did you ever miss those things while playing 1942 ? I was too busy having a ton of fun.

Me too

I read "when my dad was 7".

Well, I recommend you to play it. It has everything, naval battles, aircraft battles, tank battles, infantry battles, great maps (usually all those in the same time) good and funny physic. It requires just a couple gb in hdd. Two huge DLCs and big mods!!

RedneckSt3v3 When I first got the game, that intro gave me goosbumps every time, it's also one of the few intros I rarely skip.

Battlefield 1942 and Battlefield Vietnam are the best games EA will ever make

Juan Carlos Londoño Are you forgetting the legendary Battlefield 2?

Zack Horker Battlefield 2 is an epic game but nothing beats droping napalm and high explosives to the Vietcong while you play surfing bird or fortunate son trough the aircraft speakers

How?

True

I care about both and which has an impact on my thinking. Bf5 wins that without a doubt. 1942 is just play. Bf5 makes you wanna replay the war stories instead of completing it to get something on multiplayer

yeah that's in your opinion, different people have different opinion i do agree with the fact that BFV have single player and multiplayer but BF1942 also have single player but don't have the story line it just play with the bot and BF1942 can also play multiplayer and all the server still running today you can just join the server, a lot of people still active in BF1942 today and you still can play with other but in new generation BF franchise you have to unlock all the weapons and other thing but in BF1942 everything is available for you, you don't have to unlock thing to get it, and i found it convenient for new player who doesn't know how to play BF1942 (well i say it in my own opinion, like i just say different people have different opinion, you may disagree with my opinion but these game are fairly good but i just like original BF1942 more)

How could you possibly put CoD5 even remotely into the same realm as 1-3?

Brian Liesberg it finishes the ww2 scenario. Until they brought it back years later.

@@LegoLiam1803 I don't think that alone will hold it up as a good game. 1-3 had a lot more realistic feel to them, while 5 went more action movie and silly.

@@LegoLiam1803 half life?

I love MOH Rising sun💖💖 And now i still playing on PS2

The music made it so much better. And I mean I get chills looking at some photos of WW2 vehicles and ships simply because it's a great shot. They don't need to do too much to look cool. A good shot in a cinematic way is enough to evoke that feeling of epicness. BF1942 trailer did that well. No words are needed to convey the grand scale of the war. Let the cinematic and music to the talking.

That tiger can make you cry :/

Trevor Phillips but the beginning actually happened IRL

I know right. It would've been powerful if it was lead up to, in order to hit the correct emotional beats. However, it being an intro to an ordinary gamer can just seem cliche, like you say.

THANK YOU! I’m getting tired of all of this melodramatic nonsense to appeal to 13 year olds and neck bearded man children

@@coll912 What.. are... you... talking... about...? 13 year olds hate this stuff. Manchikdren.... well maybe onto something there.

@@DeadNoob451 I agree with you. Rising storm is very nice game....but without huey helicopters and jets...that is not full Vietnam experience :/

Thanks

GIANT DAD THE LEGEND bf 5 suck

the only thing bfv had soul in was the german campaign, because no one ever will do a german campaign again and EA,DICE finally made one

Alpha0502 true

Money it's called.

@@tobbeman1006 well i have much fun in multiplayer, they should just add some stuff which they are on, dice is really trying to save it and i see much potential, also it started better off than bf4 which was a desaster at launch, but who am i telling, because i guess you don't own it

do you regret this now that you know theres a german campaign

@@scott-gaming.8834 The German campain was the most brown nosed "we are just doing our jobs, look only x was a radical" oscar bait campain. If they where truly ballsy they would have done it as a german tank vs soviet waves of T34s with the comander being the one motivating his soldiers to keep fighting to prevent their families being killed by the russians, (Add an out of tank mini mission that ends with your character finding a home pillaged by the soviets and their inhabitants dead under 4 blankets.) Even then just the lack of the battlefield theme at the start is a big minus.

Bf3 was the last really good battlefield game

Bf 3 was awesome, the 4 was the "what do we do? Same thing as before with new maps!" so big no, hardline was like the police mod for bf vietnam (bah), BF 1 pretty nice! But man...we need a real bf ww2

@@2ndsunrise_ Nah BF3 already signed the death of Battlefield. Far too much modern gaming bullshit.

DeadNoob BF3 was great, gameplay and campaign were gorgeous, MP was to die for.

@@2ndsunrise_ the campaign was cod mw2 tier but now you can break the fences wow. No depth whatsoever no challenge whatsoever no enemy variety whatsoever. Just mundane shooting gallery bs. Mp was okay, but the super slow bullet velocities are just silly and feel more like paintball weapons than real ones. But yeah it had pretty graphics.

true

Es ist heute auch noch großartig und die mods erst

Uhu

Nein

Wieso den nicht ich finde es gut

@Yoga Krisna 0325 We Vietnamese are just like the rest of world , we can literally learn any language that we want .Stop discriminating

old trailer music is better IMO. They could have just have a orchestra do new performance for higher definition sound and stuff.

No I don’t think so

AND lets not Forget the Modding Community that made BF1942 even Better then it already was

Yes

They will however remember the note in brasses that kicks off the beginning of the '42 opening, the squeaking of tanks in desert sand, and the percussion still filling them with energy as they watch it for the hundreth time.

The problem with games owadays is that they use too obviously soundtracks, however BF1942 (Also Vietnam) and Hitman Blood Money has tunes you never forgets, 1942, simply because they made it for the game, and it fits to war theme, not emotionally, but the feeling that you wanna go berserk with hand grenades at Berlin against the Soviets. BF Vietnam because it fits to the time and you hear the songs in most Vietnam War Movies. Hitman (Ave Maria) because it fits to an Assassin who just do his job without complaints and seeking of who he actually is, and don't bother finding out...

@@LoganCarter-io9ll no sorry I am 20.

Ja naturlich!!!

1942 campaign was just boring as fuck games against bots on multiplayer maps, it sucked ass.

You're right. If I want a SpunkGargleWewee game, then I'll just play COD or MOH. While Im playing BF1942 now, my introduction to BF was BF2, and I thought the Bot only singleplayer is a neat idea. Because then again, we havr COD and MOH, and I don't want every military singleplayer game to be SpunkGargleWewee. We have plenty of MOH and COD story campaign games, not to mention, the less popular ones. If it's BF I want to play, its BF I want to play. The only story campaign I appreciated from BF was BFBC2, because it was hilarious and self-aware that the story is not to be taken seriously.

I don't hate on people that like to play it, Only that BFV is much less fun than bf 1942 and has far less features. Back when AAA games where fun for more than for a few months as is evident from your comment "enjoyed" its sad gamers these days pay $60.00 for a game that is not fun after the campaign or for only a couple of months. So many pay AAA prices for a game that's just ok or not bad.

Same here and I also like the tone they got in the new opening, it's gripping and makes for a more intense feeling while playing I think. Also, I get the feeling the 1942 opening is more multiplayer-focused and the BFV opening obviously focused on the war stories, which most of the people forget. At least I wouldn't really be interested in the single-player campaign of 1942 after the opening. I did not play 1942 and the trailer looks AMAZING for 2002, but it is pretty generic for the genre and for action movies, while BFV definitely has more of a war movie feel. I like both genres and openings but if you're asking me which opening or genre has more depth it is BFV and war movies, but I think most of the players are more interested in the multiplayer and the 1942 trailer is better in that regard.

I just don't like BFV because of the Historical discrepancies and lies in the singleplayer. I played the multiplayer a bit and found it entertaining, but not as fun as 1942. In short, like what you want mate. Argue about your preference too. Just don't let it devolve into a nonsensical shouting match and keep it civil and logical. On another note, I didn't mind women as multiplayer characters. It is just a multiplayer cosmetic thing. However, the Norwegian war story was a lie and an insult to the actual history.

It's like GTA SA, a game from your childhood, that can never be replaced by never games. No matter how hard they try.

Update: I have no recollection of commenting this, hey 2021!

...can 2021 just be over already?
