Battlefield Pirates Hoists Mod Mainbrace

Posted by simoniker on from the arr-harrrrrrrrrrrr dept.

Ant writes "The Battlefield: Pirates v0.31 modification for Battlefield 1942 is now available for download. You can be either be a pirate or a zombie pirate (skeleton), and this neat mod allows you to use various boats (e.g., galleons), various guns, cannons, balloons, kegs, grenades, stone throwing axes, muskets, cutlasses, etc - there are screenshots of the Beta on the official site." What other Battlefield 1942 mods are worth checking out?

  1. Desert Combat by HaloZero · · Score: 4, Informative

    Desert Combat is a really good Battlefield 1942 mod. We've had a lot of fun playing it at school, LAN parties and such.

      "Recursion" is a noun, whereas "recursive" is the adjective.

    http://www.dcxtended.com/ Desert combat Extended

    DC_Extended is an extension of Desert Combat for Battlefield 1942. It's purpose is to add certain weapons that I feel would make the game more fun to play, modify existing weapons to compensate for minor annoyances and to modify certain official maps to take advantage of the new weapons.

    http://www.silentheroes.se/ Silent Heroes, its about the Invasion of Norway in 2007

    This mod is about post-Vietnam special operations.
    Special Operations Forces to be included in release 0.1 are the US Delta Force and Task Force 160 helicopter unit (the Night Stalkers), the Green Berets, the British Special Air Service (SAS) and the Australian Special Air Service Regiment (SASR). Opposition forces will include Taliban, Iraqi (Desert Storm & Iraqi Freedom) and Somali troops. In 0.2, we will add units such as the Rangers and Navy SEALS, and many more maps in places like Bosnia, Grenada, Panama and the Falkland Islands.

  3. No mentioning of Forgotten Hope? by swatoa · · Score: 2, Informative

    Forgotten Hope is extremely well-done. Its focus is on a mix of realism and fun. Tons of new maps, and kickass weaponry like the King Tiger, IS-2, and many, many more vehicles, each with distinct handling characteristics (unlike bf1942, where everything feels arcadey).

    I've never gone back to vanilla '42 since. It just seems so weak in comparison. Oh, it's a bit hefty at 1.2GB (!!), and 1GB of RAM is strongly recommended.

    Version mismatch? Maybe the server is running an older version. How does it work just running single player?
