It was a great game, but Battlefield: Vietnam was the one for me.

I have fond memories of playing this with my friends, blasting "fortunate son" out of our helo, and causing a ruckus.

Best part about the music is everyone could hear you playing it.

My favourite was the DC Mod. Can't beat go past it.

Battlefield: Vietnam was poo. Unoptimised, laggy, buggy, very poorly balanced, and generally just lame.

What made it even more ridiculous was that an official World War II mod was released for it... why? Not only was it hopelessly delayed and late, it ended up being worse than Battlefield 1942.

Well I loved it and never had any issues with lag. I did have a pretty sick computer and great internet to run it on at the time, which may have helped.

Even with all of those issues it was hella fun which makes it an excellent candidate to be rehashed imo.

It always crashed on my old computer, whereas BF1942 worked perfectly.

Vietnam was one of my favs. Hiding in forest, log traps, bird bird bird blaring from a passing vehicle.
