Hey, Ive found some of the weapons possibly used, (Standard base weapons?)

"The squad-based nature of Battlefield 2 was one of the best parts of that game; however, Nielsen said that only half the Battlefield 2 players out there used it, which DICE regards as foolish, since the game is a lot more fun when you're in a squad rather than running around on your own. To fix this in Battlefield 2142, DICE is introducing incentives to play in squads. Basically, squads will be able to collect points faster for special 'field upgrades.'"
Interesting doesnt mean squads will still act as a team thoe.

I think it means that the more you work as a team, the more points you gain
Foook me dead thats alot of money...A mere Shadow|= wrote:

Props to Sarrk for finding this stuff for those to lazy to (i.e. Me...).
Whoa... Can't believe these forums are still kicking.
Wow, i fell much better towards 2142. If it makes me need a new graph card....fuhgetabootit
I was planning on avoiding this game but since reading about titan mode I'm begining to change my mind it sounds fantastic, like a better version of iron gator. when i first started playing sf (bought bf2 and sf at the same time) and saw objectives about capturing submarines and stopping missles launching i though excellent, didnt realise that translated as simply caping flags.
That has actually completely changed my opinion on BF2142, at first I thought ahh here comes the mech whore/raping and this will probobly take place, however the bit that I'm liking the sound of is this
Now to me that sounds like infantry will actually be pretty powerful to me. The progressive unlocks that are offered are quite nice, but it will mean that people who don't buy the game on launch day will be at quite a bit of a disadvantage, as there will be dozens of people running out with super G36E's with silencers, hollow point bullets, scopes and auto lock features. Ok so maybe I'm exagerating a little, but I think you can see my point, people still start playing BF2 becasue the guns they start with are actually pretty good and you don't NEED the unlocks, with this it will seem that you do.Important EA Person wrote:

To fix this in Battlefield 2142, DICE is introducing incentives to play in squads. Basically, squads will be able to collect points faster for special "field upgrades." Even without these upgrades, squads will be more potent. Squad leaders now have the ability to place a beacon that squad members can spawn on. This beacon can be destroyed by the enemy, but it gives the squad even more tactical flexibility if you can place a beacon in a strategic location. Meanwhile, squads can also use the SD-18 sentry drone, which Nielsen described as "your new best friend." The drone hovers along with the squad leader, and it's capable of covering your back and taking care of close-range threats. The downside of the drone, however, is that if you use it, it always floats over the squad leader, which blows the squad leaver's cover, so there's an upside and a downside to the drone, just like with everything else in Battlefield.
Quite interesting stuff, and all-in-all a VERY good excuse for me to start putting together my new gaming rig. May as well do it now, so as to squeeze out a few months of high-end BF2 graphics before retiring for BF2142
GeForce 7900GT, here I come! (No, seriously this time)

it will attract quake players and such as for me I do not like DISCO lasers and plasma guns a little bit too far into future for me
i got those on PC GAMER, the made an article about 2142, have some good info. also theres allready a website about 2142:Sarrk wrote:

Chuy better get prepared for BF2142!
But I agree with what everyone has said, that story made the game look a lot better. It will be awesome to customize your weapons with scopes and stuff.

I am guessing that it will mostly be a digital distribution, so everyone will be able to get it at the same time.Sarrk wrote:
Will 2142 Be shipped globaly at the same time so the americans dont have a leaderboard advantage?
I'll give it a try on Friday when I hit E3. Who knows, maybe by keeping my expectations low I'll be surprised. I'm still not confident that I'll get this over ET:QW at this point, however.
people, there is nothing to worry about. Ea hasn't completely let us down ever, so just relax and stop worrying about it. at least there arent lasers and that stupid shit! we got bullets baby. get some get some. wooo woooo
sounds fucken sweet =] for a futuristic game im looking forward to it .. and i welcome the NO LAZER WEAPONS thing with open arms =]
Thankfully the good mods will be out by the time this crap hits shelves. Titan mode at 32 players max? Customizable kits that mean the more you play the better equipment you get? Automated drones in multiplayer? No thanks, especially after DICE already ruined BF2 with their patches.
Instead of lasers, they've given us mech whoringkessel! wrote:

Look, I like the video very much. I like what I see. I almost want to buy the game. But EA has ripped me off so many times, it makes me wonder if it's worth my money.
-Patches : New features we don't like, no bug fixes
-Add-ons : charging 10 euros/pounds/dollars for 3 new maps, 7 new weapons and 4 new vehicles. THIS SHOULD BE FREE
-Another boosterpack ...money
No custom maps ranked
Someone said, EA promised us fully destructable eniroments. I only see a few barrels flying in the air.
What are all those taunts in the .ini files and stuff that we can't use?
(MANY MORE)
EA won't give you what they promise, ever. That's a shame and I will remember this. Ea, up yours, money grinders.

But will you be able to lean around corners to shoot? hmmm?
Sober enough to know what I'm doing, drunk enough to really enjoy doing it
