Actually, I have played BF 1942 and found it to be, as we would say in the Army, a complete Cluster**uk.
A disorganized mess that had 4 dozen 14 year olds running around without a plan.
It was not a pleasant experience.
I have come to the conclusion that, unless you are talking about a truly organized League or something, all on-line games with a population of above 32 total to be unwieldy.
I also have real life Military experience and find that the on-line area lends itself to mostly small unit tactics.
But then, perhaps your experience has differed from mine.

I really couldnt agree with you more. The biggest problem with Team combat games like BF1942 and America's army is that unless you play with a league or a clan, the game play is reduced to everyone running around like crazy people. BF 1942 is an amazing game if you have organized people to play with. Trying to play on public servers is a nightmare. Basically the games starts and everyone runs to the airplanes. Jealous team mates will then most likely shoot you down on take off. America's Army suffers from the same draw back. Team games are a nightmare unless team work is used.
