Will Not Buy Bf 2142 Petition Thread

Re: Will Not Buy Bf 2142 Petition Thread

I doubt I'll be getting it, personally, I'm not overly happy with the fact that BF2 is only recently turned one, and the official development (patches and expansions) is likely to cease now

2142 doesn't look like anything special imo, sure there are a few features I like the look of (stealth camo etc), but not enough to warrant me spending another £30+ and god knows how many hours playing – supposing they have the ranking system still?

I'm waiting for all the great BF2 mods to come out, these will breath life back into BF2, and when they're done with, it'll be time for BF3 – a proper new game :)

Scort.

Re: Will Not Buy Bf 2142 Petition Thread

I'm interested in seeing if they release the demo with lower video requirements and then force a reflective environment later on, promoting nVidia since the release and trying to force you to buy a new card.

Re: Will Not Buy Bf 2142 Petition Thread

i for one will be buying bf 2142 on the day of the release :)

I bought BF2 after having played the demo. This time, I think Ill chance it and preorder. Woe betide us! WE are teh fanbois!

Re: Will Not Buy Bf 2142 Petition Thread

Let me start of by just saying that i love bf2 this is without doubt the best FPS game i have ever played and there is nothing like it on the market that i know of. But it has its problems the main two problems IMO are the actual people that play BF2 and the hit detection. Now IMO dice has worked its arse of trying to fix the easier of the two problems by nerfing weapons nerfing vehicles and basically nerfing all sorts that didn't need to be nerfed (and in some case like the BH they over nerfed). For example look at c4 theres no problem with people throwing c4 IMO the problems arise when people run around with nothing but c4 in there hand spamming it everywhere and then killing them self the enemy and half there own bloody team (that's what got c4 nerfed IMO).

If Dice wants me to buy 2142 they need to have in place a system thatll guard against the little t***s similar to BFROE and they need it in place BEFORE (or near enough at the beginning) of BF2142 life. Actually what they need to do is make the system much much more harsh first offence they lose there stats second offence they get banned from logging into gamespy for a week, second offence they get banned from logging in for a month, third offence they get cd-key banned. Actually it doesnt have to be anywhere near as extreme as this but a proper system to report arseholes in place from the games release would definitely be very appreciated and hopefully will stop the game getting nerfed stupid (which will happen the little t***s will find something new to p*** everyone of with in a new game).

Also for me to buy bf2142 they need to fix the hit detection or at least improve it as much as possible. Even now in the BETA 2 the knife is either a sword (very rare) or most of the time its a wooden spoon that does no damage you can stabs someone that's not moving and lay down in the back 4 times and they don't die. I know that hit detection is the hard one to fix that's why I'm not expecting miracles but any effort with a slight improvement would be much appreciated.

Another reason for me wanting a BFROE type system in place as well before bf2142 comes out is so DICE doesnt have to tinker with the code anywhere near as much as they have had to do in BF2 because of the t***s exploiting the system. Look at the way the knife used to work it used to be a brilliant weapon Dice hasn't done anything to the knife that i know of through all the patches but changing one thing in the code has screwed up the knife so the less changes to the code the better IMO.

Re: Will Not Buy Bf 2142 Petition Thread

i can't figure out that i'll buy it or i don't....

let's have a look at the bugs etc....

when there are no major bugs in the demo, it'll make more fun than BF2 and i have got good FPS, then i'll buy it...maybe

Re: Will Not Buy Bf 2142 Petition Thread

I have already preordered Battlefield 2142: Sooper Dooper Edition along with the t-shirt/coffee mug/mousepad combo and the temporary tattoos. Also if you place the order before 9/1/06 they will throw in a bumper sticker that says, "I am a bada$$ 2142 pwner!" Chizzle!

Re: Will Not Buy Bf 2142 Petition Thread

Heck, I've only just got decent at BF2, and I'm only a Staff Sergeant...I'll carry on playing BF2 until I get the top rank, all medals, ribbons and badges, unlocks...

...But i'll probably have bought BF2142 before that ^_^ (After playing demo of course).

Re: Will Not Buy Bf 2142 Petition Thread

you guys bag on EA like this is the first time they screwed up. EA is known to do **** like this guys. long before battlefield 2 came into play.

Re: Will Not Buy Bf 2142 Petition Thread

As BF2 stands now, I cannot bring myself to purchase another product from a company that has not adequatly supported the product I currently own, that being said if patch 1.4 fixes the major issues with BF2 I will definitly reconsider, if patch 1.4 fails to resolve the issues, not only will I not purchase 2142, I will not purchase any other titles released by EA or dice.

Re: Will Not Buy Bf 2142 Petition Thread

YES! I will give my money to a company that don't care about the people as long as they get their money. That's what games are all about!

Re: Will Not Buy Bf 2142 Petition Thread

i wont be, had enough of BF to last a life time. It was fun while it lasted, until someone whined and had the game changed from its original incarnation at 1.0 to the joke it is today.

Re: Will Not Buy Bf 2142 Petition Thread

i will buy 2142, take a webcam picture of me making out with the boxart then post it in this thread....just to make you angry

Re: Will Not Buy Bf 2142 Petition Thread

It's interesting to note that they're implementing changes to BF2142 that people were asking for in BF2, friends list anyone? BF2142 is going to have that, oh and check this out...

The truly dedicated Engineer will be able to trade out his original Anti-Vehicle missiles for a powerful Anti-Air missile system. Pilots had better be on their toes when an AA equipped Engineer is on the battlefield!

Wow! an AA kit for infantry!

Re: Will Not Buy Bf 2142 Petition Thread

Protest
LOL...

Bf2 has given me 300 hours of fun and entertainment. I expect the same from 2142 which I will beta test, play the demo and buy on the day it comes out.
Some people need to grow up and realize that worthless little protests like these only draw attention to maybe acouple of hundred people and are soon forgotten, does anyone remember the Bf2 strike that was going to happen, well it didnt happen.
Bf2 sold 1 million+ copys. Where are the other 999500 people.
There playing Bf2 for all it's worth and having a great time.
2142 will own.
The sooner people grow up, stop crying N3RF, grow some balls and pull their heads out of their arse's the better.

To the people crying "2142 Mod!"
Maybe your to stupid to realize that BfV used an upgraded 42 engine.
Using the same engine is a good idea, more time go's into working out bug's and stuff and less time is spent on the new engine.

Re: Will Not Buy Bf 2142 Petition Thread

I'm not going to buy 2142 because of the support thus far...especially after 1.30.

Instead of coming out with a hotfix to fix the server crashes...and implementing an Infantry Only mode that doesn't make sence...and a whole host of bugs and issues that haven't been resolved since release.

No thanks EA/DICE...I'm going to go try Quake Wars.


Here are some solutions to 'fix' BF2:

'Vehicle-lite' ranked map option:

• Replace Tank/APC spawns with Heavy Jeeps
• Replace AA vehicles with Light Jeeps
• Remove Jets.
• Replace Littlebird and Attack Helicopter spawns with Transport Helicopters

'Vehicle-neutered' ranked map option:
Same as above except no guns on the transport vehicles.

'Supply-line' ranked map option:
Flags can only be taken in a certain order

• Fix server crashes
• Fix client crashes
• Drop a boat when doing a vehicle drop over water
• Set number of grenades to 2
• Give an extra bag to Support and Medic kits
• Repair points earned at a x3 rate
• Put +/- 5 meter variance to vehicle drops
• Place barbed wire inside all structures (no one can glitch anymore)
• Add a Buddy List (was promised in 1.20 patch)
• Fix browser issues
• Fix Server Info issues (I want to see the IP/server name again)
