Misunderstanding? You just shot your load right there. Besides the typo on GCW (which is still very clear as to what game is being referred to), I see no other history of a 'misunderstanding' for this lame game.

Well you got right by now, Bounty, but what happens when the game isn't listed on the main page? then you have to go to GameIndex and go in to Battlefield 1942.....

What about using the famous "search button"? As quoted a million times in this forums.

Search! Search! Search! Search! Search! Search! Search!

And make sure you didn't mistyped what you searched for


Then, MAYBE, you can create a thread and ask......

I have to say that i believe Krondike is correct in that GCW has incorrectly categorised Battlefield Vietnam as a part of bf1942.

When you do search, which page does it refer you to?

http://spacetarget.com/games/pc_battlefield_1942.shtml

Krondike is correct in that Battlefield Vietnam *IS IN NO WAY* connected to Battlefield 1942 because it's a *COMPLETELY DIFFERENT GAME* - so why put it in the bf1942 section?

Then, if you look at each patch entry, it's listed as: BF1942: Vietnam v1.0 [ENGLISH] No-CD Patch

...which is again wrong... BFV has nothing to do with BF1942 - it's not an expansion pack, addon, update, patch, or upgrade.


If we take another example, Command & Conquer - Generals,
http://spacetarget.com/games/pc_cc_generals.shtml

why wasn't it added to the other C&C sections such as...
http://spacetarget.com/games/pc_cc_r..._revenge.shtml

...oh yes... because it's a *COMPLETELY DIFFERENT GAME*



...what about grouping Battlefield Vietnam, with Line of Sight: Vietnam (because they have the word Vietnam in the title) - and let's add Vietcong because it's about the same subject... hmm I know why not... because they are *COMPLETELY DIFFERENT GAMES*....

....oooo I know, why wasn't Halo & Conan grouped together... err because they are *COMPLETELY DIFFERENT GAMES*.... can anyone see some sort of trend pattern here...

..so Bounty Warrior, before you ride off on your high horse, claiming all of GCW is infallible, please check your facts, and understand that GCW has many contradictory ways of grouping games together... and that this one is confusing, and more importantly, just plain wrong.

Oh the irony from your first reply to Krondike.

Nice, thanks for the grammar check. I guess you come from that Isonews place. Enjoy your stay here. Exactly what does your first post prove? Krondike already stated before you the problems that people will have searching for cracks for BF. If you dont like it, or are too stupid to find cracks on GCW, then go complain to EMPiRE, not me.

Nice Edit to include that Google Comment. Took you 30 mins to come up with that? Genius.

EMPiRE didn't flame Krondike following a perfectly sensible post, nor did he try to dismiss the concern raised that many people not familiar with bf1942 would be confused by GCWs grouping simply by calling it a 'lame game'.... that was you.

As you're now claiming not to be part of GCW's staff, why didn't you just originally redirect Krondike to EMPiRE? You are a moderator, and I'd have thought you have seen that this post was not your average 'warez crack no worky' post. Or was it just too easy to pick up on a typo, dis a game you don't like, and use the inference of being a moderator to stamp your authority... you decide.

Thats true. Yes.. But think of it like this, when a big game like this gets patched or cracked, how many godamn requests do you think I get via pm or email? Damn right I think its a lame game. Even after the crack appeared on GCW, there was a complaint claiming that the game was being bundled with BF:1942. Like EMPiRE cares.
As far as I am aware, there is no GCW Staff. EMPiRE controls that site by himself. If you dont like me as mod, then ask EMPiRE to remove me. Could not give 2 ****s either way. I get the feeling I have banned 'you' in another life, which is why you dragged this old thread up. Oh well... Life goes on.

LOL, too much energy went into this thread. Or maybe it was steam needed to be blown off anyways.

Buy each other a beer and call it a day.

uhm, first, Bounty calm down!
Second STOP FIGHT!
Third, I've delete the post information.

I think we learn something. I was just giving information about a crapy game, if anyone ask. And people including moderator are fighting like pigs. Well stop it. STOP it STOP it STOP it.

This was just an information, however this hole thing was getting silly, and the reason I didn't delete the hole topic is beucase I needed this line, to be read by other how I feel about this hole thing. SILLY!

So now I said it, and now we can move on.

Nevermind, I and do learned that I never should give out any information or service to other people about GCW... Sorry!

Best wiches and happy easter!

Be loved Krondike!
