The first time I heard of this game I thought " finally a shoot'em game set in Vietnam and since it is being made by EA it should great." I was wrong, very wrong. This game is so buggy everytime I blow someting up the screen screws up and I have to push Escape,go the main menu and press escape again to get back to the game so screen will be fixed. This usually works 75% of the time. And sometimes the screen just screws up and have to do that process I just explained. At first this game was great, but after a week or so, I got so angry I stopped playing it. It could have been a great game, but it is so buggy. The only thing I like about this game is the music while flying a HueyCobra (it's a Attack Helicopter with a alot of rockets) and blowing up enemy tanks which screws up the screen. Oh, yes I forget to mention this. If you have already bought this game and are having the problems like me if you shoot the rocket at the enemy tank and look away it might not screw up the screen. This works 60% of the time. If you are thinking of buying this game, don't. If you want a good shoot'em up game, go buy Call of Duty or Joint Operations: Typhoon Rising. P.S. The only reason I gave it two stars instead of one star is because the music is good. The only thing good about it is the music. Now, I have warned you.

Good but not so Good

Here is a game that is a sequel to battlefield 1942 and I judged it by it, and that was the wrong thing to do!!! At first the game is dumb but grows on you quickly!! The graphics are so so and the music stinks, and no campaign. The helicopters are great and the tanks are more realistic and some other mods. It ends up to be a so so game that you wish you had bought the other game beside it.

Could have been better!

I can only say Battlefield: Vietnam is 3.5 stars. Sadly enough, the aircraft sims from the main designers are falling behind. What about the SR-75 that replaced the SR-71 Blackbird? And what about other black program aircraft that have been spotted and written about? I've flown them all on my computer and am a Vietnam era veteran. I also worked FOT&E and R&D on the F-15, F-16, A-10, B1, and SR-?? (can't talk about it) from 1973 to 1978 at Edwards AFB, California.

Tell you what, I've found a freeware sim that is just awesome and incredible by any standards. Fly the number one freeware aircraft simulator on the Internet - The TR-3B Flying Triangle. I flew fighters for the Air Force in late Vietnam, specifically the F-111 and am rated commercial also. The TR-3B Flight Simulator for Microsoft's Flight Sim, is based on the writings, lectures, and TV interviews of Edgar Fouche who wrote "Alien Rapture." (See amazon)

Why? This is what the genius who developed it wrote: "For the experienced flight simmer on FS2002 PRO, I have developed this complete exotic amphibian TR-3B package, which is now available as freeware for download. It includes 3 models - the purple Astra, blue Locust and white Hellas - and as an extra 4th model the TR-3X with its own speedy attacker flight dynamics. The package includes TR-3B panel & gauges, noise cancellation sounds, fsuipc and special lights effects.

This TR-3B is a heavy tactical reconnaissance aircraft equipped with a magnetic field disruptor that reduces the weight by 89 percent (it is not the same as anti-gravity, though). It has been created for Microsoft Flight Simulator. All gauges are included.

The TR-3B can float like a speedboat at Mach 1.5 over water, fly like a heavy helicopter, like a bush plane, a business jet, like a military jet and lift like a rocket. Cruise speed is approx Mach 4.7 at FL340 and above, and approx Mach 2 at sea level. Service ceiling approx 69,000 feet ASL. Super stable. FSFREEWARE, SURCLARO, FSPLANET aircraft simulator sites have reported as many as 5000 downloads in one week!

I searched and read many many web pages about his book and the author, Edgar Fouche including; startfinish(put in the dot com.)biz/wise Click on links for Fouche and Flying Triangle. You will find his full presentation, and the download links for the TR-3B. Get the Great TR-3B Top Secret aircraft simulator and X-Plane, which I highly recommend.

What a Letdown

After seeing the preview of this game I was anticipating an excellent adventure like Call of Duty. What I got when I purchased it was entirely different. This game is bad. The gameplay seems unfinished, the AI is shaky, the vehicles seemed like cardboard cut-outs, the airplane you have to fly had me cursing my computer, etc.... There is too much to complain about to even warrent a review. I usually love Electronic Arts games. I'm a huge fan of Medal of Honor and Command & Conquer but this game wasn't worth $10 let alone the $45 I wasted on it. Luckily a store near me took pity on me and gave me my money back. I can't wait for Medal of Honor: Pacific .

Horrible!

I bought this game expecting to have some fun! But even with a brand gameing system which cost over $3000 it still laggs! The graphics look choppy and thers not that many maps! Buy battlefield 1942, its better than this and cheaper. This also has tons of bugs and a lot of hackers! EA games rushed to get this game into the shelves but it is just a pices of [S(h|!)t]

Extremely disappointing

All I ever do is get aggravated at some point when playing this game. Nothing better than shooting someone 3 times with a sniper rifle and not only do they not die, but they run full speed at you unhindered and kill you. I would say that at least 80% of the time that I die on this game it is after I shot the other person first. I ended up throwing this game in the garbage. Stick with ravenshield if you expect someone to die when you shoot them.

BattleField vietnam worth 100$

get unreal tournament 2004 instead of this crap.
this game is buggy, poor graphic and the machine guns are just too powerful. on the other hand, unreal tournament 2004 got very balanced weapons that actualy requires skill to shoot.

War Game of the Year

Ok, all these World war II games, and these Tom Clancy swat games. They don't have anything on vietnam. This game is so well planned. With Music, sounds, and areas historically accurate, to the massive arsenal of weapons and vehicles, I believe that EA Games has truly made a game of the year. The only bad part is you definately need a cable modem, because the AI in this game is horrible. But who was gonna play bots anyways, get your butt online and pawn some people across teh globe!.

and you don't need a top end computer. My system is an athlonxp 2000+ , 512 meg of ram, Radeon 9600 All In Wonder. I did have a Geforce 3 which worked fine, but I do video editting and needed an AIW.
