i still have no idea why some of you guys here on bf2s actually really like 2142.
coincidentally you're all the younger members, too
I liked that the medic packs no longer instantly healed you and they were progressive. I didn't like that LMGs got more accurate the longer you fired though. PK-74 rockets were freaking genius and amazing! Were great eradicating tools but on some 64p servers it would become PK spam fests.
I think the overall ingenuity and creativity that the game offered is what made it so popular. It was very original and fresh. There were so many new aspects like futuristic theme, new weapons, new vehicles, battle walkers, gunships, titans, hover-tanks, motion mines, ECM frags, etc. They all added a new aspect of gaming that otherwise wasn't to be found anywhere. I think BF2142 was the epitome of Battlefield greatness. It combined all the good aspects from the previous Battlefield games and then added some awesomesauce on top, thus making it, in my opinion, my favorite Battlefield game.
And above your tomb, the stars will belong to us.
