OK, I have to say that I am much more impressed with the 2142 demo than I thought I'd be. After getting to play the beta, I was really on the fence about wanting this game. I'm still disgusted that there are no "true" fighter aircraft, but I think there may just be enough of other things to do that I will still enjoy it. The stock 2142 engineer is a LOT more fun to play than the BF2 engineer (the rocket launcher is absolutely ferocious and the carbine is surprisingly accurate), and I haven't even unlocked any of the nifty new items. I can't wait to see what some of them may be. 10/10/2006 8:35:13 AM |

there's a interview about air power. they nerfed it intentionally to make it more difficult for it to be the über dominating force they are/were in BF2
all unlocks are disabled in the demo version

Yeah, I remember reading about that but I'm still disappointed.
I think the new APC's are extremely valuable since they carry EMP weapons. Shoot something like a walker with it, turn the shield on, then have an engineer or two jump out and hose your target down with rockets. Very useful. Oh, and it's hysterical to hit a loaded enemy transport with an EMP shot. 10/10/2006 12:58:24 PM |

emp and the active defenses are the shit... 10/10/2006 2:40:56 PM |
Axelay All American 6276 Posts user info edit post |
Oh hell yes, 100% agreement.
I still like the Engineer's carbine much more than the Assault's rifle. I just can't wait to see what other unlocks and options will be available in the full version. 10/10/2006 3:11:03 PM |

Someone pointed out to me that the Titans have their own drop pod launchers, and that they are significantly more powerful than those carried on the APC's. I thought I'd test it out, and it turns out that their range is much wider. It's a VERY quick way to get from the Titan to a nearby silo (or simply better and faster than parachuting to the ground), but only if your commander has started to move it toward midfield. I gave it a try and spotted an enemy jeep preparing to leave silo 1 while I was in flight. I steered directly at the jeep, dropped right on top of it... and killed the guy, blew up the jeep, and walked away completely unscathed. It was hysterical. 10/11/2006 12:00:47 PM |

bf2141 is pretty cool... i admittedly like the titan mode more than conquest now 10/11/2006 3:03:32 PM |
Arab13 Art Vandelay 45180 Posts user info edit post |
yeah, titan seems to foster more teamwork, while conquest is still the general cluster fuck is has always been....
in a competitive team setting though I like the conquest aspects. 10/11/2006 3:22:58 PM |

titan mode is pretty fun in the demo, but i'm an infantry guy, so i spent most time on BF2 infantry only servers if i play at all anymore 7/23/2007 9:38:56 AM |
Arab13 Art Vandelay 45180 Posts user info edit post |
i'm mixed on the infantry only deal, imho it just turns into nade spamming... vehicles are sometimes needed to "push" through the oppositions defenses 7/23/2007 11:48:48 AM |

I just really love flying the attack choppers. It takes a while to get the hang of them but once you do, you can wreak insane amounts of havoc with a decent gunner. 7/23/2007 12:07:32 PM |

you guys play SF (the expansion pack) at all?

Axelay All American 6276 Posts user info edit post |
Part of me really misses BF2. That part of me is the part which used to wreak havoc throughout the skies as I ruthlessly bombed every enemy vehicle moving. The other part of me which absolutely despised the infantry combat doesn't miss BF2 at all and has moved on to 2142. I feel that the infantry combat in 2142 is exceptionally fun - especially Titan defense.
I surely do miss the planes, though.
Say, did anyone else play Point of Existence? It was bar none the best mod for ANY game I have ever seen. Think I'll see what their team is up to these days... 7/23/2007 2:46:26 PM |

no haxoring i've seen, hackers get IP banned very quickly usually. haven't seen any in 1.5
downloaded and just finished installing FH 2.2 (finally europe!)
i should eventually get around to installing 2142 again
there are alway 200-400 populated servers online for bf2 1.5
