Boomtown has now offers the leaked official 1.4 patch for Battlefield 1942 (27MB). It includes tons of cool fixes and additions and should push BF1942 to new heights. For a starter you will notice that sounds have been improved considerably in 1st person view such as increased volume of impacts, louder grenade explosions and a new sound for the Axis Assault rifle STG44. The scoreboard has been enhanced as well and now shows current server's name, IP address, map name and each player's ID number. Surprisingly there's also a blood effect for additional feedback when you are hitting another soldier. Until now BF1942 was quite conservative in that respect. Other changes include a fixing of the Tank Repair exploit (tanks will no longer be able to make repairs in the airplane hanger) and other cheats as well as two new guns: The DP 1928 and the Type 99.

It has come to our attention that a non-final version of the 1.4 patch has surfaced on the web. Please note that this is NOT the final version of 1.4, and it WILL NOT be compatible with the final version of 1.4. We strongly recommend that you do not install it. If you have installed it, our suggestion is that you reinstall BF 1942. Stay tuned to the official Battlefield 1942 website for our regularly scheduled community update this Friday.

Every once in a while a mod comes out of no where. Well, today one of those such mods has let the public know they exist! Say hello to Battlefield: Pirates and their first alpha release! Now is your chance to be a Pirate on the high sea's and wage battle with other Pirates. Here is a bit about the mod itself:

Please be aware that this mod is probably a little different than what you're used to. Pirates hate being on land, they hate being in the air, and they hate newfangled contraptions. If you're looking for another mod full of running and gunning, dive-bombing, and blasting away with tanks, this probably isn't for you. If you get excited about the idea of sailing uncharted waters, searching the fog for rival ships, and maneuvering into the perfect position to lay iron unto your enemy before he can do the same to you, then you've come to the right place.

This mini mod strips certain maps of everything except the aircrafts (i mean everything!). This mod also features one of the coolest spawning. When you spawn, you are placed in your aircraft that is 'suspended in midair over the battlefield. These "suspended planes" line the sky of the map. Trust me, its pretty cool!
