not sure if you guys cares but if you are stoned like me atm you can watch pretty much all of the new movies and series on InstaFlixxer. I've been binge watching with my gf for the last couple of months :)
I would like to thank everyone for watching this video so many years after I made it on my crappy Dell laptop, which could not even run the game on max settings. It was fueled by passion and love for the game and nothing else, and I am extremely grateful to see you all still comment and "like" it up to this day. Thank you all so very much. Don't let old-school Battlefield be forgotten!
Virgin BF V: ships are just static objects Chad Forgotten Hope 2: usable ships in a mod of an game that didn't even had ships. GIgachad BF 1942: usable destroyers, cruisers, battleships, submarines and aircraft carriers
I’m finally a GigaChad at something! I even used to get depth charge kills on submarines. The most satisfying kills for me were always the most unusual/least popular
It's hard for me to pick a favourite map, but I do know that infantry heavy maps in BF1942 were my least favourite. I miss Liberation of Caen CQ a lot. That was a very interesting map.
This was my first battlefield game and will always be my favorite! I love how there are no limits, actual players can drive aircraft carriers! Battlefield 1943 was such a bummer! I hope battlefield V is more like this one, just with better graphics.
There won’t be a remake since something like BF1942 is too complex for the average shooter player thus not a good investment for any publisher/developer. Players nowadays are satisfied with running around arcade style and spend hundreds of dollars for skins and cosmetics. Planes, tanks, helicopters, ships, infantry, different controls for all of that and settings…naaah.
Personally, I think Battlefield Vietnam (original) and Battlefield 2 stand in line with it. Specifically for the mods for BF2 , such as Project Reality and Forgotten Hope 2.
those just don't have the same feel i mean dont get me wrong bf2 and the expansions was amazing its just every thing felt kinda like railed combat after bf1942 they lost the whole sand box map feel liek here is a battlefield go at it i guess i miss the scope really you really didn't feel limited to being funneled into one path
I get what you're saying - you'll probably like the modification called "Forgotten Hope 2" for Bf2 though, I think it's got that 1942 feel to it (because it's about WW2 and plays like 1942), many people agree too.
My uncle made me search about this game and I download it on my windows 7 laptop , it's fking amazing and I can say is better than some new trash games
Hey did you guys ever see any pictures from WWII with destroyers having the camouflage paint jobs as depicted in BF1942? I honestly never remember seeing these paint schemes on allied ships ever. I saw this in BF1942 and thought okay maybe it was a thing, but I never saw pictures from the war with these camouflage, they were always gray, from my understanding. Now there is a movement where there was a paint scheme called "Dazzle Paint". The idea was to confuse U-boat commanders when they saw them as to what they were, and how far away they were. Wikipedia now has an article featuring the Dazzle Paint as a thing in both World Wars. I think someone is having a joke at our expense.
WW1 utilized them more often, but in WW2 they were almost non-existent and mostly useless because of technological advancements. Dice, when they were developing 1942, were far from historical accuracy. Take alone the fact that soviets run around with Enfield rifles and MP18 SMGs, heh.
Oh good old Midway map. When people had an idea what Battlefield should be like and what should be possible. And now we have BFV and there are people who think this is the apex of BF gaming. It‘s those moments when you realize where you came from and what point you have reached already. It’s so saddening.
was there any way of surviving in a sub if a destroyer found you? i allways found unfair that if you use a sub and a destroyer finds you then you are dead (unless something else takes the destroyer out before or if it had damage from before). Destroyers have sonar so they can find subs in their radious easy.. they run as fast as a sub on the surface and much faster than a submerged sub so you cant run away.. if in surface they can shell you and you can only launch torpedoes... wichh need 3 or 4 salvos to sink a DD .. and under the surface deep charges will quickly kill the sub.. deep charges make lots of damage no matter how deep you are so even running to max depth doesnt help at all and sonar still picks you.. in resume: Once a DD spots a sub in the sonar or visually the sub cant escape, cant hide, sonar will allways pick it.. on surface its easy to shell.. underwater is even easier to deep charge.. depth doesnt make a diference
@@TricksterPoi but you need to put like 6 or 8 torpedoes to kill a destroyer ..you cant in a single salvo.. but the destroyer can kill you in a single deep charge salvo
rippingtons60 you need to do an online match, but sadly the servers have been down for quite awhile, in order to play online, you need to pirate a copy of the game, and then you can play online with others who have pirated copies. Not quite sure why this works, know it has something to do with the cd key
Jonas Whitt any version works right now,all servers adopted all kinds of versions to increase population. just download the game, make sure your punkbuster is installed correctly and go play!
This is multiplayer, but singleplayer maps are no different. They only have bots instead of players. Submarines are also available only on certain maps like this one and a few others.

u r so good at this game
Virgin BF V: ships are just static objects
Chad Forgotten Hope 2: usable ships in a mod of an game that didn't even had ships.
GIgachad BF 1942: usable destroyers, cruisers, battleships, submarines and aircraft carriers
amen
Forgotten Hope 1 (mod for 1942) had the best naval maps. Nothing but ships, no land at all!
@@Wolfskopf meanwhile dice puts the americans making the landing in 1941's wake just because they didnt wanted to model an japanese landing ship
@@Wolfskopf Do you or anyone one else Remmember the mod XWW2 ? Experience World war Two? It made the game more realistic.

Awesome man
It's hard for me to pick a favourite map, but I do know that infantry heavy maps in BF1942 were my least favourite. I miss Liberation of Caen CQ a lot. That was a very interesting map.
El Alamein was a clusterfuck of fun 😄
I don’t know why they took naval combat out of the game
freal. I always wanted to get into a battleship fight. Best I ever got was sinking the carrier on Midway or shelling omaha with the fletcher
This was my first battlefield game and will always be my favorite! I love how there are no limits, actual players can drive aircraft carriers! Battlefield 1943 was such a bummer! I hope battlefield V is more like this one, just with better graphics.
BFV.... will disappointed you lol
BFV Is great in my opinion
@@championyeti3401 yea, it's very great, but i hope they will make a remake of battlefield 1942 with only better graphics, that would be awesome !
@@tristan.h5099 Bf1942 remaster would be pretty cool but I doubt many people would play it at all. The game hasn't really aged that well.

Amazing how it rises out of the water like The Flying Dutchmen.
bf1942 was way supiroier to any of the battlefields that came after it offers true combined arms combat

kudos too to Battlefield 2142 Titan Mode, to it's vehicles and gadgets/equipment 🥰
@@Wolfskopf yeah liek i said bf2 was the last bf i acutally liked after 1942
god i miss this game so much
Me too!
My uncle made me search about this game and I download it on my windows 7 laptop , it's fking amazing and I can say is better than some new trash games
I miss the Naval Battles and big movable things like B52 and Hangarships, but also Submarines.
The game is still alive and well, there are still constantly populated servers and midway is played quite often =)
@@Wolfskopf I know. I should play it again. :)
@@V3ntilatorfun fact : battlefield 1942 (this game) is the ONLY battlefield that has driveable submarine
@@agorman1341 I know, and also movable hangarship which could also be torpedoed by submarines.
Good ol' BF times man 💪🪖!
@@VVVhitesnake hell yeah
Daaaamnn the first game I've played ollllddd memories
That was a f***** good game !
Loved to play with aircraft and sub. This was a real wargame with everything playable
I didnt buy BF1 and BF V .....
pls where are submarine :(

What happened to our reality man
What the great music! 0:12 and so on. What the track is it?
Is that music created by Joel Erickson? How can I find it?
@@ИванАтамась85 BF1942\Mods\bf1942\Music
@@Wolfskopf Thank You! I have found it now. Composer is Joel Erickson, name of track is "Briefing".
When it was actually good
was there any way of surviving in a sub if a destroyer found you?
i allways found unfair that if you use a sub and a destroyer finds you then you are dead (unless something else takes the destroyer out before or if it had damage from before).
Destroyers have sonar so they can find subs in their radious easy.. they run as fast as a sub on the surface and much faster than a submerged sub so you cant run away.. if in surface they can shell you and you can only launch torpedoes... wichh need 3 or 4 salvos to sink a DD .. and under the surface deep charges will quickly kill the sub.. deep charges make lots of damage no matter how deep you are so even running to max depth doesnt help at all and sonar still picks you..
in resume: Once a DD spots a sub in the sonar or visually the sub cant escape, cant hide, sonar will allways pick it.. on surface its easy to shell.. underwater is even easier to deep charge.. depth doesnt make a diference
Well it basically goes something like this
Subs kill battleships, battleships kill destroyers and destoyers kill subs.
Alien43 That's how it worked in real life too.
Well considering that subs torp anything dies instantly, Destroyers can send subs to the bottom of the seafloor quick in return with a depth charge.
@@TricksterPoi but you need to put like 6 or 8 torpedoes to kill a destroyer ..you cant in a single salvo.. but the destroyer can kill you in a single deep charge salvo
Is there any possibility of driving submarine in bf 1942 in this battle or any other naval battle?
what does it look like? Did you watch the video? lol
@@Wolfskopf yes i did
You can in any battle
I meant the diving not driving
@@CHRIS_5226 yes you can dive with it. gotta be careful; if you go too deep or stay down too long you die lol.
how do you dive with submarine?
Check your controls under ''sea'' tab
@@Wolfskopf tank
I have played this game but never know there were subs, maybe cuz i pirated this game back then
@@mn1907 a pirated game wouldn't make a difference. they're just on specific maps
Needed in Bf1.....
SKULLRAIDER it might be coming in Turning Tides
World of Warships geht es weiter :) ;)
Dice please give us another 2. WW shooter!! like bf42 with ships to drive and submarines
Be careful what you wish for buddy, because unfortunately it came true.
Which? 1942 or 2042? Both are in the same game.
lo mandaste a la banana
el que lo lee es ESTADO UNIDEDSE
depth bomb
Torpedoes!
where you have submarine pls
naval maps
Still better than 2042
I haven't played 2042 but I liked that they added original maps
