First off all i can say is the people who think this looks better than mohaa should lay down the crack pipe. The player models in this don't look anywhere near as good as the ones in mohaa and neither do the rather basic and inaccurate looking weapons models.

Even with the res and options bumped up it doesn't look all that good. The reason being they opted for low poly player and weapons models so they could have more freedom with the size of the maps. The only good looking effect ive seen in this game so far is the shimmering water and even thats not exactly earth shattering.

Infantry based combat is near non existant in this game so i can;t see how people can compare it to mohaa. In mohaa you're using infantry and fighting against infantry, in bf42 you're basically in a vehicle 90% of the time and the infantry combat is quite basic on the rare occasion that it does happen.

The vehicles are good for a laugh but i would assume even that piece of crap tin can commenly called the "sherman" would be able to take out a half track in one shot instead of 3-4 shots.

It can be a good game on its own merits but infantry combat is not its strong point. The lag is another issue, basically every server seems to lag even if theyre local to you or not. The demo also seems to have come with a refresh rate bug which will make your screen black out for a second while it triggers your monitors refresh rate.

All in all this game seems to be devoted more to vehicle based combat. The infantry side of the story is basic and crappy to be blunt about it.

Its yet another game where ea tries to make team work happen but all that happens is morons dive for the planes and kill anyone whos gets in their way just to grab it and they normally crash the friggin thing during or just after take off. mwah:
