Iwo Jima in 1943 was goated
Hell, all the maps in that game were great. Guadalcanal, Wake, Iwo Jima and Coral Sea

[@kevinkibble8342]

Iwo Jima was my favourite from the original base BF1942 game. However my favourite all time BF1942 map is Monte Cassino from the Road to Rome expansion. Night time, fighting your way uphill under constant artillery fire, it's just epic. I'd like to see you do a video on that one.

[@GravityBFTV]

Wow! Someone that remembers Monte Cassino. Unfortunately, I am not sure I could even make a video on that map. Even my experience Is limited on it and i have no real way to check how it plays anymore. Plus itll be impossible to get footage for.

@@GravityBFTV You can get the Road to Rome expansion free if you google it

Great use of the Vanguard soundtrack. Only good thing to come out of that game to be honest

[@niichhe]

ever considered of making episodes dedicated to mods like forgotten hope, desert combat, etc?

[@kevinkibble8342]

I would absolutely love that. Forgotten Hope (and its successor Forgotten Hope Secret Weapons) have endless maps that put vanilla 1942 to shame.

[@Austin-138]

Would love to see a video on BFV Pacific Storm. Plays great on breakthrough imo.

[@RHG_Music]

I want another good WW2 BF

[@julienm5880]

you got BF1942 Portal its great

[@Umbra3357]

This map is better than the one in bf5 just by looking at it...

[@jonoboio1233]

I feel the BF5 map was definitely made with Breakthrough as it's main focus. Its great in that but its still ok for conquest in my opinion.

[@user442fd31]

0:35 How is BF5´s Iwo Jima a disappointment? I mean yes, the Conquest Layout isnt that great, but like, its hands down the best Breaktrough Map ever made in my Opinion
