man 1942 was one of the best games of all time

series has gone farther backwards with each successive installation

On This Day in 1942 the US Navy sank four Japanese aircraft carriers (Hiru, Akagi & Soru) while losing only one (USS Yorktown) in the Battle of Midway. Given the decisive material advantage Japan had going into the battle, the US victory was a stunning and decisive blow to the Japanese.

>tfw the game is dead now
It's not fair bros

1942 has the worst bots ever

Basically the point in WW2 where the United States absolutely wrecked the Japanese Navy to the point they could never recovery for the rest of the war. Take a quick read on it. It's quite interesting.

Feels bad

They're actually not that bad when you put them at 100% and 25% CPU. They actually can take objectives and utilize assets. If you ride with a bot in a plane, you'll see they can bomb targets even better than you.

Japs utterly BTFO
The Battle of Midway is one of those things that make me proud to be an American.

Damn I wish this game was more active.

So true

What a shame that Battlefield decided to pursue the console playerbase instead of building upon the nature of all out warfare with Battleships, Carriers, Cruisers, Planes and Tanks

To this day no other game has gotten combined arms done right. I think warthunder is trying but it's not going to work out.

WT did just introduce imperial ships though. Fitting for Midway anniversary.

>sink 4 of thier fleet carriers while only losing one of ours
Based

What are some other good Pacific War games that aren't BF1942 or Battlestations?

based

>tfw you shoot down a plane with a rifle

Had to do it since the bots wont always get out of the plane for you

How do you get them out of ships and tanks?

In my experience they are more cooperative about getting out of tanks but it's still a 50/50 shot there. I don't know how it's determined if they listen to you or not.
I have never gotten one out of a ship before. If you are playing with bots you just gotta spawn in quick and hope you are near the entrance before they spawn
