    If BF2142 was a film it would be Waterworld, as in it was expected to be the new Jurassic park (box office gross) but instead it only just about did OK, that's why people define bf2142 as a flop and not as an utter failure (didn't make its money back) and that's a fact my friend .

      You and your friends define 2142 as a flop, maybe. It didn't do quite as well as BF2, but it still sold very well. If the entire community would have rejected it, it would have been a flop, but I guess the thousands of people playing 2142 every day more than 2 years after release doesn't have a valid opinion.

        If the entire community would have rejected Bf2142 it would of been considered an utter faliure, and the people involved with making that game and losing EA money would of probably lost there jobs.

          It's called English. You're from the UK so it's reasonable to expect that you would be able to speak it, yet clearly this is not the case. How do you manage to contradict yourself in the same paragraph? And you say I need to read before I speak? :laugh:

          Fine. You're comfortable with being DICE's catamite. I'm not. I guess that's where our differences lie (well, that's one of the areas anyway).

          You're right. Better I should be 'useful' like you and just sit back and let things come to me as they may and never have a critical thought of my own. It must be easy living like you without ever having to think for yourself and just say, 'Oooh, DICE knows what they're doing...they always have. This sounds great! If they were to turn BF into an 8-bit side-scrolling platformer I'd still buy it because DICE knows what they're doing. Yep.'

          But don't feel bad, the world needs people like you, too. Mostly televangelists and drug testing laboratories, but at least you have a place unlike useless ol' me.

          You clearly just said, you want to argue black is white because thats what you do? so basically from that little part there, you just renounced all forms of intelligence, and told us all that no matter what it is, your still gunna argue because thats what you do?

          WTF man, words can't describe how much a d!ck you really sound right now.
          But good on you for trying anyway. :thumbsup:

          Where did I 'clearly' say that I wanted to argue no matter what? I'm voicing an opinion, as are you. Our opinions differ. You think it's wrong for me to judge something based on the knowledge I have and then attack my character. I don't mind, because I personally don't care what you think about me, but I do feel it's within my right to defend my position. What we're doing here is not arguing, it's you trying to fling dung and instead just getting your own hands covered in feces.

          'Moaning constantly about something I clearly know nothing about', you say? Let's see...I know it only has three maps, three classes, 24 player online max, match-making servers, no unlocks (even though BF2142 only had four classes, the unlocks gave each class several possibilities), and every soldier class available has the means with which to destroy vehicles. This is called information, and it's something rational people use to formulate opinions. My opinion is that it's not a worthy successor to BF2/BF1942. If it's not supposed to be, then fine, it fits that role. I've stated this several times, that we were promised a big year by DICE, and this is what surfaced. So I judge it based on those two facts because that's all we've been given. Therefore, I have the choice to either be critical of the decisions and voice my criticisms, or grab a jar of vaseline and lube up for whatever comes my way as you're want to do. You've made your choice, I've made mine.

          Odd, though, that you should chide DontKnockIt earlier in this thread for calling someone a twat, yet in this last post you've called me: 'completely useless', 'half brained', 'd!ck', and 'sh!t for brains'. Once again you don't practice what you preach. Do as I say, not as I do, eh? And, to reiterate, I'm the one with the God complex in this thread? :laugh:

          I see, and I like how you waited until AFTER you've called me d!ck and sh!t for brains before taking the moral high ground. It's okay, everything else you've spouted off in this thread has come out the other side of your mouth, so why not this, too? Amusing how your only consistancy lies in your thematic self-contradiction.

              I don't suppose you have the development cost to sales ratio handy? I would genuinely like to know if these claims are true. Preferably with money earned from ad revenue if possible.

                  They are. They only have something like 40-60 staff, occupying I think one or two floors of a building.

                      There is a reason that there is a 6 year gap between the original games of Valve's and their sequels.

                        2142 is superior to BF2 in many ways, but so many people just didn't give it a proper chance it seems. yea people are attached to modern weaponry and familiar settings of present times but dice took what they learned from BF2 and applied it to 2142 to make a game with better balance hence better gameplay. shame people don't see past the "i hate futuristic crap" because it really is a great game.

                          IMO I'd be happy with a remade BF1942 w/ frostbite engine. And I mean same number of kits, all the same maps, maybe even more maps, same armies, weapons, vehicles, etc.

                          But I'd be even happier wit a modern BF3.

                              Are you joking?? Their whole argument is not based on anything anymore. It is just picking at the way each other argue. Not only is it a total waste it is completely high jacking a thread.

                              wolfalmighty

                              paragraph 1: you contradict yourself. + Dont speak your first language well.

                              paragraph 2: our opinions differ

                              paragraph 3: Your not useful because your a sheep

                              paragraph 4: Im voicing my opinions & I dont care what you think

                              paragraph 5: Finally some argument. Which states he is against the game because it is not a worthy successor of BF2. Yes we know this. We know this is not a full on release. But thanks for voicing your opinion about this. Try to keep up.


                              That was such a waste of time. It was an attempt at an ego boost.


                              Anyway wolfalmighty this is not a complete successor game. I am hoping you understand. But if not let me spell it out for you.

                              Its too small. As you state too few maps.
                              Not enough content.
                              Price is expected to be $20, Normal games i imagine are $50?

                              So with the knowledge that this is not a successor to BF2, can you please look at this game for what it really is. A test that is a remake of BF1942. Which if proven successful will have an increase in content, and will further the developement of other games which use the frostbite engine.

                                Well all we can really do at this point is speculate as to DICE's vision with the PC BF franchise. If what's being released is simply an appetizer, I'll take a bite in anticipation for the main course. If this is the main course, then Houston we have a problem. In the last video interview it was mentioned that there's still more to come for the PC (I believe the words 'big plans' were used) so it does give me some hope that we may eventually see a new 64 player full-scale BF game on the PC. I shall remain cautiously optimistic.

                                I'm sure more maps and content for BF1943 would be a great thing, but I still can't wrap my head around the 24 player thing. Personally I'd trade destructive environments for 64 players in an instant, but whether 24 player is Frostbite's limitation or simply the limitation of the consoles on which BC was released I don't know (and they're not sharing). I'm fine with BF1943 and wouldn't even have a problem with the 24 player thing if I knew for sure that it's not going to be the new face of BF. Right now, DICE hasn't given much indication otherwise.

                                Meh, anyway, I'll stick with cautiously optimistic. :thumbsup:
