![]() While I vanilla BF1942 and BFV are reasonable games it is the third party mods that make these games truly enjoyable. My most recent BF series acquisitions are the oldest, BF1942, and the reasonably recent BF Bad Company 2, which is as yet unplayed. I came to the BF FPS series somewhat late after playing story-driven and/or mission-based FPS games like COD, MOH, Rainbow Six, and SOF2. Nowadays you get the Euro Force (EF), Armored Fury (AF) booster packs for free as part of the v1.5 patch. I own BF2 Deluxe Edition which comes with the Special Forces (SF) expansion. But the multitude of maps and terrain, the ability top play for either faction, the vast array of weapons, the ability to drive/operate a variety of vehicles, and the fact that one is never out of the action for long keeps me coming back for more. Also the capture - hold - recapture gameplay dynamic of the SP version of BF2 would normally become quite repetitive after an hour or so. I do prefer story driven single player (SP) games and have only rarely ventured into online multiplayer (MP) so BF2 would seem an awkward fit for me. ![]() ![]() I had previously reviewed both the JO and BF2 games and mods in November 2008 here on GameSpot but both needed to be revisited.īattlefield 2 (BF2) and its various official EA add-ons and third party mods makes for one great, highly replayable, modern era first person shooter (FPS). It really was a trip down memory lane and followed on from playing and reviewing, for the first time, BF1942 earlier in 2011. By Perth2008 | Review Date: MaDuring the 2011-2012 Christmas and New Year holiday period I reinstalled a couple of FPS games I had not played since 2008 namely the Joint Operations: Combined Arms game from 2004 (comprising JO Typhoon Rising and JO Escalation) and the Battlefield 2 Deluxe Edition from 2005 (which includes Special Forces and now with the latest BF2 v1.5 patch the two booster packs, Euro Force and Armored Fury, are available for free).
