    Questions and concerns

    Hey guys so i bought bf1943 the day it came out, love it so far, really fun game and great dollar value. Although the server issue bothered me they're back up now so it's all good. I have some questions for you guys though, see if you can answer!

    1. Squads, i kind of don't get how they work in 1943. The last BF game i played was BF2, where you would just click make squad and be alpha, bravo, charlie, etc. In BF 1943 how does it work, you just join a random group of people, its weird. There is no squad list to join, or way to make a new squad. I am very confused on this issue.

    2. Artifacting. I am playing on xbox 360 and am getting occasional artifacts on my graphics. My xbox is a fairly new 360 and it is not overheating, strange to see artifacts in my opinion.

    3. The bazooka is kind of weak. I always loved being anti tank in BF2, and in BF1943 I love this class and killing tanks, but it seems like it takes 4 rockets to kill a tank, so i suck at shooting the bazooka or what?

    I would love to hear others opinions on these issues, thanks guys!

    1.) I just played for an hour with Elxx, I found it very confusing but workable. Hit the start button and you will see a squad option. You can create or join an existing. If you do matchmaking with a friend via an invite they and you will join in a squad together automatically. There is no "squad leader" you can spawn on ANYONE alive in the squad.

    2.) are you noticing black squares? I am getting this two on my PS3.

    3.) I have yet to try it I've been holding my M1 very tight.

      My friend said he got black lines flashing on his screen on 360. I haven't seen any artifacts on the PS3.

      4 sounds about right. Isn't that about as many as it took in BF2 to kill a tank as well? That's why I never played AT in BF2 - you'd need like 30 seconds to shoot, reload, shoot, reload, shoot, reload, shoot - to take down a tank. Seems the same in 1943, I use the bazooka to take down jeeps or for last minute desperate suicide attacks on tanks.

            I've had 1 freeze-up on me so far, and in Guadal Canal, I'm also seeing artifacts, it looks like a lot of texture tearing, in which these long ugly line-like figures are all over the place. Reminds me of the issues I used to have on my old ATI radeon card with BF1942.

                I think I was killed with one shot to the back while I was driving a tank I don't remember if I was at full health or not though.

                  Well I am assuming since it is a tank then its weakest points would be the tracks and from behind.
