Kestastrophe and I had some good matches. I rocked our last match fucking hard. We suicide jeep'd a tank at the airfeld - the tank blew up but the jeep remained intact!

The Fake Shemp · « **Reply #123 on:** July 11, 2009, 04:04:04 AM »

Had four great matches where me and two other guys formed a "Party Boat" and went to the opponent's carrier and sat at the bottom, shooting down planes and boats.

We could have hopped back in the jeep after blowing up the tank, as if nothing had happened. lol physics

I'll be on the 360 version in a couple of hours if anyone wants to try and play (I say TRY because, you know, EA)

Servers have been fine since yesterday.

okay, i have to run a couple of errands but i should be back and on within the hour, I'll look for you

FatalT · « **Reply #129 on:** July 11, 2009, 02:52:19 PM »

Hey Willco, Eel, when you start playing let me know somehow. I wanna play too!

Oh god it's been over an hour you're probably already done now.

Eel O'Brian · « **Reply #130 on:** July 11, 2009, 03:36:00 PM »

i just got on about 30 minutes ago, sign on and join up

warning - i suck

Eel O'Brian · « **Reply #131 on:** July 11, 2009, 06:41:48 PM »

we couldn't find any games, please try again

this game appears to be unavailable

can't invite friends, private match i had joined froze up the game

clusterfuck 1943

i'm not buying the PS3 version now, and i will never ever ever buy another EA online-only game

if the PC version doesn't have support for private servers it can fuck right off, too

The Fake Shemp · « **Reply #132 on:** July 11, 2009, 07:35:42 PM »

I got your invite, but when I went to join, you logged off, you jerk!

Eel O'Brian · « **Reply #133 on:** July 11, 2009, 08:10:42 PM »

i had a spell where i couldn't connect at all

i'll be back on later

The Fake Shemp · « **Reply #134 on:** July 11, 2009, 09:04:05 PM »

I really haven't had too many issues since they added more servers - you sure that the current batch of problems aren't on your side? Is your NAT open?

Eel O'Brian · « **Reply #135 on:** July 12, 2009, 09:50:15 AM »

i ended up falling asleep last night so i never went back on, sorry

nah, my nat is open, i was able to connect fine for a while, but then i ran into a period of about 1/2 an hour where i couldn't connect to a game to save my ass

that'll probably be corrected shortly with the servers they allegedly keep adding, but the crappy interface will never be fixed

requiring 16 players before you can even start a private match is just utter bullshit

they really, really should have included a peer-to-peer option for private matches

bork · « **Reply #136 on:** July 12, 2009, 03:52:10 PM »

They fucked up some things with this game. It's still fun when it works, but I even get in-game visual and audio glitches from time to time. I would have returned BF1943 already had it been a retail release; it's unacceptable.

Mr. Gundam · « **Reply #137 on:** July 12, 2009, 04:03:57 PM »

I've been playing in a squad with my nephew and his grandpa. Being in a squad makes this game much more fun.

Eel O'Brian · « **Reply #138 on:** July 12, 2009, 05:18:24 PM »

haha, i need to learn when to mute my mic

i got my tank stuck on a dragon's tooth near a base, and since i was surrounded by enemies i had no choice but to stay inside the tank to duke it out

i'm not very good at this game, but i do know what i'm doing, and that was something i couldn't avoid

of course we got murdered, then i heard this jackass say "the guy driving the tank is an idiot, you gotta keep moving"

so i yelled "GO FUCK YOURSELF" as loud as i could - he's one of those dudes who never stop talking for one second and he was getting on my nerves anyway

i've decided i'm not talking anymore, and i'm just gonna mute everyone in games from now on, so if you're one of those people who hate that then you probably just shouldn't play with me

i miss the days of text-only chat

Agreed.

Squads make this game. I load up my jeep with my friends and explosives, and constantly honk the horn. I run through an enemy base and their guys are like, "Wtf is this?" and then - boom! - we blow up the jeep and cap their flag. Everytime.

Eel O'Brian · « **Reply #141 on:** July 12, 2009, 07:31:50 PM »

so, i thought i'd give the demo a try on PS3 so i could compare the two on the borecast recording this week

after 15 minutes of "failed to create account, could not connect to EA online" i deleted the demo along with any chance i might ever even think about purchasing it on PS3 for any amount of money (even gamesharing with two of my friends)

what a complete and utter clusterfuck this game has been from the very start

expect a replay of all this busted server and EA online stupidity in September when the PC version gets released

The Fake Shemp · « **Reply #142 on:** July 12, 2009, 07:45:24 PM »

Nope. It's obvious that EA was using the console versions as a testbed for the PC version, which is why it was always going to be released way after the console versions.

No they weren't.

Doesn't change the fact that ther PC version will be PERFECTLY FINE.

I think I'd wait for the PC release before saying that. Guess you're bored without a console to play the game on.

Mr. Gundam · « **Reply #149 on:** July 12, 2009, 09:21:40 PM »

What's all this EA account stuff? I just logged into the game and started playing right away. I must have created an EA account back when I got Burnout Paradise.

ASA and Kestastrophe, when you get on join up and we'll form a squad

i plan on attempting hilarity

we could be the Marx Brothers of BF1943

I've been going on to opposing carrier's, sticking airplanes with explosives, taking one of their boats, dropping below and waiting for them to take off and - boom! - they die! I wait 'till they almost get to their target too.

How do you get onto a carrier from the water? Or did you fly there?

The Fake Shemp · « **Reply #160 on:** July 13, 2009, 08:29:40 PM »

I fly and parachute out. A bunch of us will go on a ship and camp offside the carrier and shoot planes down too.

Kestastrophe, FatalT, Eel and myself all played. It was hectic getting everyone together at times, but totally fun. The best was when FatalT got placed on the opposing team and wrenched us to death.

Eel O'Brian · « **Reply #163 on:** July 13, 2009, 11:49:53 PM »

yeah he's like a rocket

i had fun up until i started sucking big time

when we were a whole squad together in the same place we were stomping ass, though, we must have taken that hill on guadalcanal at least five times by ourselves

I wanted to join your chat party to talk with you guys, but figured I'll just wait to get the game instead. By time I get back from my lake vacation at the end of next week, you guys won't be playing anymore which is just my luck. $:-\$

The Fake Shemp · « **Reply #175 on:** July 14, 2009, 12:46:32 AM »

Nah, I still will and I think this will have a pretty dedicated community. We haven't even unlocked Coral Sea, yet. And who wants to bet that EA has new DLC already in the can?

Eel O'Brian · « **Reply #176 on:** July 14, 2009, 01:04:15 AM »

it is a testament to how fun this game is that i am willing to overlook the vast amount of bullshit regarding server issues, forming squads, game freezes, getting booted from parties, me sucking, etc. and still keep rebooting the 360 so i can log back in to play

buy it, i'll play with you, guaranteed

it's a great game with a bad interface and very limited options, is the best way i can describe it
