How much time will there be till BF2 will not be played so frequently, and its popularity will drop? Since 2142 soon will be out will players drop BF2, and start all over with 2142. Or would a lot of people stick with it like the case with CS.

I'd have to agree, but I reckon that people will play both - just look at CS again

Those new games will be the BF2 mods i'm guessing. FH2/PoE2 etc..

The Sci-Fi wankers will go to Quake Wars or 2142. Good riddance.

Well how about 1942? Most of them are DC, but there are stil 1942 servers around.

Trouble is it's now very hard for new players to get 'into' BF2, without being killed so much they give up. I've seen several posts on other forums where people buy BF2 but give it up within a couple of weeks, and without new people buying the game it'll struggle when 2142 and Quake Wars come out.

I pretty much fear for BF2 and 2142. I think neither will last much long. Sadly.

I think that some reasons that CS is that bigger than BF2, is that it is a lot easier to begin with, and that the concept is so simple and easy. It is kind of sad that a game like this, will not survive so long.

I think both games have the concept of firing a gun... not that involved.

Yeah, and you don't crash when you join a server, and you don't get killed for the awp, and you don't need $200 in RAM to play it...

Among other things.

I do not agree with you. The choices in BF2 are much bigger. For instances. The levels are bigger. That will provide you with more area of tactic, and the vehicles. Also look at the different weapon types. There are many things to master. So all around I find BF2 a much difficult game to master.
And do not forget the enormous systemrequirements that BF2 have. That scares alot of people away.
Not everyone wants to buy a bunch of new hardware.

T:V is fun, my clan plays it, but because of the very small following a lot of people are elitists about it and a new person trying to join the community is extremely hard because half of them are jackasses.

Go try and make a new thread at tribalwar forums as your first post. I dare you.

If the 2142 demo/beta is any good, I'm going to stop playing ASAP.

However, I'm going to have to be lenient in my judging of the beta. Damn

I just hope that the 2142 demo soon will be down-loadable, so we could see how good it really is.
Well it should be soon august. Perhaps on Friday.
