Will Battlefield 1943 be like the original Battlefield 1942?

I love all the freedom 1942 had. Will 1943 be like that too?Will Battlefield 1943 be like the original Battlefield 1942?
1943 will have 3 maps (at release), it's only multiplayer, and based upon the new bad company engine. The gameplay and graphics look incredible. I cant wait for it myself. Then later this year, BC 2 will be out.
