Anyone else playing the demo? I'm sure you are, arielus. ;)

This shit is badass. I purposely skipped BF2 when I heard this was coming out, and man was that a good idea. BF2 is good and all, but the sci-fi theme of 2142 is right up my alley. It runs really good too....I've got graphics and sound on high and am getting between 40-70 FPS. If you've played any of the Battlefield series you know what to expect, but the new setting makes it totally better. Wait till the first ime you get into a walker. :shock:

Basically, it's every bit as good as I thought it would be. :RockOn:

Re: Battlefield 2142

I don't know it for sure, but it can't be too far away from the official date...which is 10/18.

Re: Battlefield 2142

actually, i'm playing Project Reality Mini Mod, a modification for bf2. you can find it on [url]www.realitymod.com[/url] i love the recoil, the no health indicator, and other stuff that make the game funnier :)

Re: Battlefield 2142

Man, you really need to check this out. It might be the best game I've ever played. And this is just the demo. :shock:

Re: Battlefield 2142

i played all the bf series. Vietnam i thought was the worst. In any case, I haven't played 2142 yet but it looks so hot. From what I hear though, it's pretty buggy, but knowing EA, they'll release earlier than they should have.

#725447Post 8 of 52

Re: Battlefield 2142

i'll try 2142. you try PRMM (the reality mod!)

deal? :)

#725476Post 9 of 52

Re: Battlefield 2142

I don't have BF2. ;)

I might have to get it though...the clan I'm about to join said they are still going to remain primarily BF2. :what

Re: Battlefield 2142

nice.. want some help? i'm a good commander :p

i tested bf2142 demo today. didn't understand what to do. just killled my enemies and followed my squad leader :D

#726079Post 11 of 52

Re: Battlefield 2142

That's about it at first...capturing silos and healing/reparing/resupplying your squad. Stay in a squad at all times and you will learn things pretty fast. Doing just about anything in a squad gives you a shitload of bonuses.

I've been trying out Commander and it is [B]SICK[/B]!!! You can call down EMP strikes from orbit. :twisted:

[quote=Localizer;388290] Vietnam i thought was the worst. .[/quote]

dude the vietnam one was awesome. with the vietnam era music ect . it was like that show 'tour of duty' if anyone remembers it.

the fact is they are all good.

as for the bf 2142 demo i didnt get a good look at it because its only multiplayer and atm my ping is too high (wireless) why not have a 1 player demo with the bots ffs :evil:

evangelion bf2 is not worth skipping.

BF 214 - B.C is there next project

[quote=dopla;389083]evangelion bf2 is not worth skipping.[/quote]

I played the demo before it came out, so I know how good it is. I just don't feel like starting from scratch this late in the game. Some of the guys in the clan I'm joining are captains and higher. It would take me till the end of next year to catch up.:what

No, I'll start from the very beginning with 2142 and ride that for all it's worth. :lol:

Speaking of Bad Company....have you seen the early screenshots? :shock:

Fully DX10....and it shows.

#726649Post 14 of 52

Re: Battlefield 2142

all the bf games have the same skill set. noone learns a new bf from scratch if they have played it before.

sure there are little tips that the pros know ect but for the most part they are the same..

evangelion where did you get that wicked avatar from? :shock:

and what clan are you joining for bf2142?

don't pay attention to ranks and all that this.

i usually play in a non-ranked server, so i have the lowest rank :p i only bought it to play with my friends and my clan

I honestly don't remember. I think I just did a random Google search for "half-life 2 avatars." :lol:

Killzone Zero aka [KZ-0]

#730247Post 17 of 52

Re: Battlefield 2142

no offence but that clan name sounds kinda gay. the same for all good clans for some reason. killzone zero ? what is that supposed to mean.

dont get them to bounty hunt me in the game for that comment

I'm sure they will lose sleep at night when they hear this horrible, horrible news.

:roll:

[quote=dopla;390638]killzone zero ? what is that supposed to mean.[/quote]

Well....if I had to venture a guess....I'd say there are multiple killzones....and they're numbered starting with 0 instead of 1. Thus...this would be the first one.

That's just a shot in the dark, though....who knows what it really means.

[quote=dopla;390638]dont get them to bounty hunt me in the game for that comment[/quote]

You can rest assured...they will never even know.

#730376Post 19 of 52

Re: Battlefield 2142

I used to play CoD: United Offensive and dominated to the point that everyone called me a hack. I now play BF2 and I love it. Graphics and sound are ace! I got into the game a bit late and Im slowly rising up in rank.

[COLOR=yellow]As for the 2142, I was really really excited but found out that this game is gonna have SPYWARE, which is total fucking weak ass shit from stupid EA![/COLOR] :twisted:

Re: Battlefield 2142

yeah BF2 is the balls.

BF2142 spyware wtf?

your right that is pretty weak

#734296Post 21 of 52

Re: Battlefield 2142

i think that tis spyware is just that punkbuster app, downloading the demo now,

will see how its going to work on my new machine...

#734404Post 22 of 52

Re: Battlefield 2142

I'm yet to see any signs of spyware....I haven't even seen an in-game ad yet.

I think the hysteria over this supposed "spyware" was WAY overblown. :what

#746408Post 27 of 52

Re: Battlefield 2142

I honestly cannot put this game down. The ranks, the unlocks, the pins, the badges, the multitude of stats to follow...it's almost like a first-person online role-playing game.

Anyone else on the East Coast playing? Let's meet up and play sometime.:Bingo:

#746429Post 28 of 52

Re: Battlefield 2142

have you got the full version ?

Re: Battlefield 2142

#747569Post 31 of 52

Re: Battlefield 2142

i would like to play, but i have just the demo, so it isnt really fun to play one map all the time.

i think it came out few weeks ago..

Re: Battlefield 2142

yeah was talking with this guy the other day and he was going on about COD2 release, saying its better than BF2142 and other bf games.

i said he was wrong but havent played COD2 to know any better.

anyway, imo BF series is best fps out there

im going to get bf1942 as well that game rocks as well. how many of you still play that?

I never really did. Played it a couple time...it was alright.

#749408Post 37 of 52

Re: Battlefield 2142

i hope my g/f will let me buy it, when i recieve my paycheck, as i really really wanna play this thing...

if i play demo version, can i see you guys?? just have to wait for another week or so... guys, dont go without me

i will be on line few hours later on, as i am home alone...

#749712Post 38 of 52

Re: Battlefield 2142

A word of advice....start on your badges as soon as you start playing. I got 1500 points and 2 ranks last night by getting 3 badges.

#755833Post 39 of 52

Re: Battlefield 2142

yeh cant play online yet, been playing single player a bit i think the newbie guns are gay but the rest of the game is everything i expected it to be. is there a way you can improve ranking on singleplayer to unlock the decent guns? im not sure why the guns are worse in the future. bf2 guns are so much better at killing than bf2142 guns.

#756020Post 40 of 52

Re: Battlefield 2142

Believe me ...the weapons get way better as you unlock the better versions. The Assault light assault and Recon assault rifle are deadly once you learn how to use them. Laying demo paks and blowing people up as they walk through doors is one of the coolest gameplay elements in any game I've ever played.

And no, you have to play on ranked servers to gain points.
