Battlefield 2142 Press Release and Screens

Re: Battlefield 2142 Press Release and Screens

2142 is to BF2 like cs is to halflife2.

2142 is essenitally a modded game thats been officially released. I'd imagine they've fixed and tweaked some of the hardcoded code however, but essentially thats what it is.

Some people love CS, some people hate it. Some people will love 2142, some will hate it. We'll all have to wait for the demo to actually decide how good it actually is. But from what i've seen in the screenshots it does look good. However, as i've said before, and will keep saying. Take the information we've been given so far with a large handful of salt, many of these cool features are under the 'possible scrap list'. So be careful on what all of your expectations are.

Re: Battlefield 2142 Press Release and Screens

I dont think im going to buy it. Its just some new models, thats all it is. Maybe some new invsible soldiers. WOW. They havent changed the gameplay, and they never will. It is just new models, they didnt even improve (at least it looks like) the engine, the same old engine. Until they start fixing BF2, that will never be on my computer.

This is a an Alpha build, they already said that and it will have engine and graphical enhancements... and it's still at least 6-7 months away. Your loss I guess.

This is bullhs!t with EA will give no more support for bf2 and just make this game, this is why we got a peace of **** game uncompleted all because they were working on something else, diverting resources iam sure. While no support to the Mod community, well we know why!

You dont like my answer to this, then dont read it! FRAK YOU EA!

You obviously didn't read this.

We're developing this here in DICE Stockholm while the DICE Canada studio will be hard at work on a 1.3 update for Battlefield 2, as well as the Armoured Fury Booster Pack.

People need to wake up and smell what they're shoveling, man. Read the articles before people start complaining :laugh:

Re: Battlefield 2142 Press Release and Screens

I'm not interested in a fictional game.
I'll not be buying this, the support for the battlefield community has been poor ever since they moved on from Battlefield 1942.

Just my oppinion

The fact that patching has now been left to DICE canada does not fill us with hope. I can see the next patch completely fvcking everything up

Re: Battlefield 2142 Press Release and Screens

bf2 is redicouls. It is very hard for some noob to just pick it up and play.... and if they did... itd probaly be unpatched. The RETARDS at EA chould learn ALOT from counterstrike source and the steam engine

Please read the post over again, then slap yourself, BF2 is the most noob-friendly game ever, it takes NO SKILL whatsoever to do anything, the planes are just fly around like no problem, the helicopters, jesus christ they just flaot and so on.
But I actually prefer the BF2 guns over the CS ones, because in BF2 it's not quti as much based on pure luck.

Re: Battlefield 2142 Press Release and Screens

Well it depends on what version of CS your referring too. Half-Life 1 Cs was far more skillful than the mediocre pap it is now. I too think BF2 is harder to use, the recoil aiming etc is far more authentic.

Cs has basically turned into an arcade shooter. Shame really, i loved cs for 5 odd years.

Re: Battlefield 2142 Press Release and Screens

Ok, so they are releasing a new Battlefield game a year and a half after BF2, whats the big deal? Allot of diffrent game franchises come out every year or year and a half. Yes they are trying to make money, so would you if your owned these companies, yes they want to compete with Quake Wars its smart buisness. The more Battlefield options the better for me, I like the game I will like the mods and I will like the future games, and really there just games people.

Oh and boo-hoo if you "feel" like you have wasted $50, look in the mirror and tell yourself "Self I made a mistake and made a bad purchase, next time I will do a little more research and make a better choice, but until then I take full accoutability for my own failure to choose a good game."
We have all made bad game buys at one point or another, stores just won't let you return them and get your money back like they used to.

If you really can't handle that EA and Dice are making another game then I got a solution for you, go start your own company and make games you want to play, until then deal with it you baby.

Fix BF2 first, then new game....

Re: Battlefield 2142 Press Release and Screens

Uhhmm, no thanks. Why would I pick up Battlefield 2142 if Enemy Territory:Quake Wars is coming out? Quake Wars has a better graphics engine anywho. Not to mention the best part about Quake Wars compared to 2142 is the Human vs Strogg concept. Don't get me wrong, Human vs Human can be fun once in a while but if you have a Human vs Alien/Monster/Creature game it's a way more rewarding and longer lasting experience. Every time you play as a different team it feels like a different game, the Strogg would be a more melee based badass race with their cyborg mech things, spawning in a pod that falls onto the planet. While the humans of course would have their guns, tanks, helicopters etc.

I'll stick with Quake Wars. To be honest, I don't think I'll even try out a demo if they release one for Battlefield 2142, I really don't feel like going through another Battlefield 2 experience.

Another one that didn't read the article. :laugh: They are working on both.

Yes I am sure graphically Quake wars will look phenomenal but if it plays like Doom3/Q4 you will need a Pig of an upgrade to keep up with the MP playability...
I plan on getting both anyways... but I am sure it'll be apples and oranges.

You're being very naive.

You really think they're going to put ANY effort into BF2 when they have a potential profit-maker in the works????

They'll release a gesture 1.3 patch that will probably create more bugs than we've ever seen - perhaps even on purpose so people buy BF2142 in desperation.
- Not that any true Battlefield fans would be interested in lasers, hovercraft, cloaking, blah blah blah.... what a load of rubbish.

Re: Battlefield 2142 Press Release and Screens

It sounds as if it's going to be awfully far off the original BF1942.
So I don't really think it's going to be something for me at all.

I don't like those futuristic games too much.
I prefer WWII themes for computer games, or other historical events.
I've never had any interest in starwars like games. So no thanks I think I'll pass.

Re: Battlefield 2142 Press Release and Screens

The PC gamer artical states you dont controll the support classes "floating pod" its just hovers over you like a big shoot me flag.

Wether or not i buy this game will be determined as soon as i sit in a Mech and no sooner.:)
