Planet Battlefield writes: "Lastly, some people have noticed that as of right now Battlefield 1943 has been set to 90,000 Microsoft points on Xbox Live instead of the usual 1200. Some suspect DICE want to put up more servers before adding more players to the game."
EA: "As we close in on 15 years since the release of Battlefield 1943, and Bad Company™ 1 & 2, we are announcing that their journey is coming to an end."
This reminds me... I have ME on my PS3 hdd. Never really played it, but it was free.
On PC I don't think it's much of a problem but I'm sad to see BF43 being shut down. I haven't played it in a while since it's stuck on PS3, but i preferred it way more over BF3. It was the lack of invisible barriers which made it better for me.
Does anyone play the last BF anymore? I searched crossplay servers and it was 20 people the most on all the servers? Can never find a game

Should you look back far enough and manage to take your mind away from Battlefield: Bad Company 2, what you may well remember is a small, online-only multiplayer adventure that lit up the Xbox Live Arcade – Battlefield 1943."
Great little game but yet again, no offline bots so once the servers went, so did all its players. What a waste.
Game developers should - and can - trust the player to consume their entertainment while maintaining perspective.
I just played BF 1943 and its horrible you cant get on anything at all. You can only do the trainng but thats it so far. Hope these server problems dont affect the ps3 version.
Wow, DiCE are hosting BF:1943 on their own servers? I just wander if they will recieve any of the monthly subscription I pay to play on Live!(Which is basically a peer-to-peer system and a rip off) or if Microsoft will just horde it all.
Atleast this game seems to be pretty popular, I had BF:1942 and BF:2 on the PC back in the day and they provided hours of fun and laughter. Bring it on!
i was gonna get this for the PS3 today, but now i'm a little worry. i'll have to wait and see that this game is working before buying it
Another day, another Live failure or downtime.
Battlefield 1943 works perfectly on PSN and it doesn't on Live.
