Now we've all had a chance to pound on the games we were waiting for all year, its time to of course start looking for the next new thing to talk about on messageboards, read up on the latest releases of information on, and generally get all round excited about!
Battlefield 2, due for release sometime around March is looking like it might be a great game, building on the huge open environments, massive 64 player servers, and awesome vehicle physics and action that made Battlefield 1942 so successful online, all with the popular Modern warfare action made popular by the developers of Desert Combat mod for BF1942. Thats right folks, we're done with WW2 games, FINALLY!@!!
Check out
this video showing some of the fantastic graphics and action that will be seen in Battlefield 2 in 2005.

I liked the effects on the water, the reflection of the sun on the water when looking down from a helicopter and the ripples behind the boat when it was racing down the river. The trees up close looked a little dodgy but that may be the encoding on the video.

Personally I'd like to see mega beefed up explosions that are done on the client side. When you smash a vehicle, the shattered hulk of it could be handled by the server, so the carcass can still cause damage to wayward pedestrians and other vehicles, but surely doing massive visual debris just on the client side would look frickin' awesome!

The Parachute Animation is looking pretty dodgy (it just appears) and the peaple seem to bounce a fair bit :/
Would have been nice to see the RTS view that the overlord commandery guy gets. Looks good though.

edit: grass was awesome in BFV, I had much fun proning in long grass and smiting people from afar with my sniper rifle of doom - until a chopper flew over me and could see me easily :(
