BattleField 2142 is a stolen idea.

Re: BattleField 2142 is a stolen idea.

I am trying to say, DICE SHOULD NOT make this game. It wont be fun, and games like BattleFront II have already accomplished the same type of gameplay, while better as well. This game is a waste of their time. They should be thinking of ADDING MORE maps or vehicles, etc. Plus GETTING RID OF THE ****ING BUGS, in BF2

Who are you to say it won't be fun?

Looks like a hoot to me.

You also don't have a clue as to how the mechanics will work. Just because it's got mechs doesn't mean it's going to be like SFBFII, mechwarrior, or Starseige.

Also, relialize that while they are refining the engine for BF2142, they are also likely to find improvements that can be applied to BF2 in future patches.

If you don't like the look of the game, don't buy it.
Making bold and rediculous claims before it's even out is just silly.

Hehe, did you see the gunships?
Rather Orca-like... but that makes sence from a believable design standpoint.

They'll never copy my orcas. NEVAR!!!!

Re: BattleField 2142 is a stolen idea.

Well i understand your post, and i agree totally, but i hope at least you can understand SOMETHING of what im saying?

It's not a matter of understanding...

It's a matter of you presenting a laughable argument.

They'll never copy my orcas. NEVAR!!!!

Hehe... too late consitering Orca's were perty much just Comanchies with the rotar removed 'n engines strapped to the sides.
:p

Personally, I'm lookin forward to flying something orca-like in BF2142. It's a game element I just always wanted ta get a shot at.

And ur laughing right now, as i am :p

I know its an uncanny argument, but it does have a point, in the most obscure way.

Re: BattleField 2142 is a stolen idea.

You complain about BF2142 ripping off C&C, but not battlefront ripping off BF1942/V/2? sorry, not trying to flame, but to understand your viewpoint (which seems fractured to me.)

[General_Han_Solo]

Re: BattleField 2142 is a stolen idea.

And i did say, STOP REPEATING HISTORY. The only games that i have played that REALLY are unique are

PC: Half Life 1 and 2, BF1942, DC, BF2, Jedi Knight II, BattleFont II, Tiberian Sun

Console: GCN; Geist, Metroid Prime 1 & 2, Rebel Strike

Well it is hard to explain. My MAIN argument, stop the repeated process of the same genre.

[Ghilleman]

Re: BattleField 2142 is a stolen idea.

Well, its hard to not copy anything at all, as all genres have several aspects that define them. Although if you're looking for innovative games, try Huxley for the PC when it comes out. its a MMORPGFPS (what a mouthful).

Wow.
Just wow.

Jedi Knight II... original? It's a sequal based on a movie that was a direct rip-off of an old Japanies flick called "The Hidden Fortress" (seriously, Starwars is practically a remake it. Ever wonder why everyone ware's Kimono's?).

Same thing goes for SWBFII except that it's got the additional "creative insperation" from BF1942/V.

HalfLife is arguably a Quake Ripoff with a better plot, but that plot is perty much a rip off of HP Lovecraft's work.

Even BF1942 was directly inspired by Tribes (the devs openly stated as much), but they set it in WWII to avoid a staturated market (and ain't it funny how many WWII shooters followed?).

Methinks you need to look up "original" in a dictionary.

I believe EA has a team working on BF2 improvements and a team working on Battlefield 2142. . .

Re: BattleField 2142 is a stolen idea.

Yea, EA canada is working on BF2 1.3, Armored fury, etc. And EA stockhelm is working on 2142.

Re: BattleField 2142 is a stolen idea.

k mechs arent lixcenced to any partiocular game company, and it actually is just as unique as every ohter FPS online. Think about it how many games are like Battlefiedl 2. If you want to complain about it you would need a stronger point. Yeah but i dont agree

No, **** no, Star Wars is the revelations of whats to come. Read your bible, same thing in Star Wars, same thing happening now.

As for JKII, running around with a lightsaber isnt original?

Half Life is a TRUE original based FPS. Quake wasnt that interesting, yeah just go around blood thursty.

BF1942, is something where there are no limits. You can do "anything" in the game. Thats why it was also original. The WWII games after that did follow, but where are the open, vehicle filled maps?

No thanks, i dont need a dictionary, why not YOU "think outside the box"

Re: BattleField 2142 is a stolen idea.

Weird how no one has realized that BF1942 was just Tribes with WW2 vehicles. It even had a CTF mode. And C&C is closer to Dune 2 than BF2142 is to C&C. The only thing BF2142 has in common with C&C is that it's in the future and there are Orcas. Mechs aren't exactly the most original idea but the style seems to be borrowed from Mechwarrior.

We can't really expect EA/DICE not to borrow from several games, even unknowingly, since EA/DICE need to make money and trying wacky, far-out ideas is a huge gamble when the game costs millions of dollars to make.
