No, NO , NO and finally NO.

EA is up to their tricks to get more money. 2142 came out in october. WTF is this crap.

fix 2142 and Bf2 then ill buy a booster pack..

2142:

weapon accuracy is horrible
Titan mode sucks and too laggy
battlewalkers are too powerful..

Yeh but in this Booster Pack the walker SHALL have competition - the new Hover vehicle and Goliath vehicle will provide a new challenge.
Oh, and Infantry are usually perfectly capable of destroying a walker, just don't get in its crosshairs, simple enough. When did you buy 2142?

Anyway, I shall be buying this, regardless of if it is sold only on EA Link or not (although I deteste EA Link, but nothing shall stop me buying this!!)!!

1) I see no problems with the weapon accuracy.. Maybe 0.5/100 kills you will miss due to bad accuracy..
Sure it's not your own accuracy that is a tad off?
2) Titan mode doesn't suck.. I think Titan Mode > Conquest on larger maps. But I still prefer the smaller City
maps like Camp Gibraltar, Cerbere Landing, Tunis Harbor.. They're more action packed..
And Northern Strike will feature City Maps in Titan Mode.. I'm looking forward to seeing that, but I fear that
the lag will be overwhelming.
3) Battlewalkers aren't too powerfull.. You just need to know how to take them out.. 3 Rosch shots kills a
perfectly healthy Walker.. 3 RDX Packs will do the same.. 3 Well placed Pilium shots too.. And if you shoot the
Walker's arse, it 'll be dead in no time.. There are also the Motion Mines which will make a walker stop running
around for a while or blow it up..

So I only agree with the "fix Titan lag" part..

It's simple, i need the points, bonuses are big points, silver is the best i can get, and playing normally I'm just inching my way to the next rank, Northern Strike is = new bonuses = big points = next rank faster = me happy.

I will buy it but undoubtingly it will fall the way bf2 booster packs did. Being because its an add on to the the original game not every server with ever player will own it. I cant count how many times i was on a server in bf2 and a booster map came up in the rotation that a huge portion of the server players disappeared by not having the content This is why I dont agree with the boosters to one extent. It will undoubtingly be on ea link.

not sure. I might buy it at the end of my current wish list:

1.Half-life Episode 2 - end of Feb
2.Supreme Commander - end of Feb
3.Crysis - March sometime
4.C&C 3 - end of march

They should keep me busy for a while. It's gonna be a gaming heaven of a first quarter

The earliest release date I have seen for crysis is June, on game stop it says September. March Is too early with dx 10 only being out since Jan 30th. But C&C3 looks to be good. I love watching people bash EA. EA didnt make 2142 Dice did. EA just publishes it.

I really think they should have released the IFV's (the new vehicle type in Northern Strike) in a patch...

I just watched the northern strike preview they released. They forgot to make their hover buggy explode after it drove past the 2nd guy.

No, I don't buy boosters. They apparently are not good enough to put on a disk.

Now, i'm a little bit worried after going back to 2142 for a day. My computer isn't very good and there's all the fucking retarded people with servers that have over 20 players slots. I might not be able to find a good lagless server to play this in and it pisses me off.

i most likely will buy it. sounds fun, and the extra unlocks are really appealing. i'm pretty impressed by the way you have to acquire awards to get unlock points. very cool.

Ill buy it, i bought all the bf2 ones, and although the integration into Vanilla bf2 was a little poor, i still enjoyed them, and from what ive seen and heard about this new booster, it looks just fine, so yeh, ill buy it. O and im not particularly bothered about using EA downloader, ive never had any problems with it.
