you got to be kidding bf2142 is so hard, with bf2 you have the ak-101 and just rape the shit out of everyone with one single shot no to mention the vehicle and gunship whoring, and in bf2 you can get 200 points a round easy. The only thing harder in bf2 is ranking up and it takes 1000 hours to rank up all the way and if you do that you have no life wat so ever. BF2142 is far superior to bf2 and so much better.

BF2 was something new and different. BF2142 was basically like a mod to it.

i guess bf2 is a lot more based around your current warfare..so people can somehow relate to it ...whereas 2142 tbh is a load of unimaginable shit ...thts gonna take a while to believe, the guns are nerfed in 2142 completely ...so mucked up, whereas in bf2 its near enough real stuff.

thtswhy i like it more

Everything feels seriously weak.

The gameplay is good, but it just doesn't have that special something that BF2 has.

To those who've said that 2142 is too futuristic and unreal.  Granted there is some tech that we don't have yet, or is in the experimental stage.  But there are no lasers, or Star Wars shit.  The guns fire bullets, you throw grenades, there are stationary railguns, which we have today (still in the experimental stage).

As far as people saying there are too many noobs in 2142.....well.....what can you say to that....except, that in bf2 I find there are too many people who CALL other people noobs.

Oh yes! BF2! The fun off:

- Getting base raped by bombers
- Getting base raped by LAV's
- Getting overall base raped

In 2142 I have witnessed almost no baseraping. Because the Engineer can destroy armor in one shot. Recon that can cloak. Sniper rifles that actually register a head shot.

2142 Titan is such a gameplay advancement over 2, but unfortunately got screwed by EA's crap coding.

About the futurism thát´s a personal preference i don´t have a problem with that but understand it turns allot of people off.

The Pros with BF2 the large maps feels allot more worked through than the 2142 counterparts. Veichles mostly choppers and aviators they are fun as hell to drive.

There´s allot of cons though raping the biggest concern including aviators, choppers, artillery there´s little you can do to counter a great/awesome pilot.

In 2142 you have control i don´t get the 1000 of spawn-deaths. Veichles can easily be countered by a smart player at worse scenario at least you can push a good walker-pilot back. The game is balanced believe it or not hit reg is allot better, i also find the battles to be more intense and teamwork oriented. ( play in a good squad with VOIP 5 medics 1 support you´ll see )


Edit: @ Bern yeah Titan could have been so much more unfortunely it never got reworked and turn into a mess.

Titans are basically a moving map in a map and with all the movement and accumulated processes the engine just couldn't pull it. Maybe it could have worked if they had approached it as a map in a map, making the interior titan a truly seperate map with minimal stream-loading.

I'm surprised 2142 isn't more popular, too.  Runs more smooth than BF2 does today, balance is much better, teamwork is rewarded, none of the bugs that people whined about in BF2 ... list goes on.  I like the weapons themselves better in BF2 because they actually exist, but the gameplay an d teamwork has always been worlds better in 2142.

There's so much more variety of different things to do in 2142 than there is in BF2.

I firmly believe that a lot of people from BF2 took one look at the demo, saw a basic game with no unlocks; saw no jets; saw tanks that could be taken down with one shot.  They saw all the items they could go full-on-uber with in BF2 either gone or (as they would think it) seriously nerfed. They didn't even have a defib or grenades.  They did not do as well as they would in BF2 and ran.   I think a lot of people who play BF2 are great players because they know the tricks, not because they have "mad skilz."  Their tricks were gone, and they did not like the suprise that awaited them.  Of course it can't be because they aren't as good as they thought- the game just sucks.

I dont play 2142 or BF2. I used to play Bf2 ,but after seeing 6-12 months of asswipes, morons, tkers, glitchers, haxors, i just gave up.


2142----- is a mod of Bf2, plain and simple. i avoid that game like i avoid WoW.

Have you even played the game? some of the best and easiest weapons to use are standard rifles... ( allot of league players also play without APM/RDX/Rockets )

I start with BF2, then hoop on 2142 for more than a year, then get back to BF2 now.

2142 pro:
~ well balance on team, class, and weapon
~ titan is fun, more dynamic game play like fight inside hall way, move titan to protect ground console, etc
~ interesting weapon
~ well desige for each class, like combine  BF2 engineer and anti-tank into 2142 engineer

2142 con:
~ No jet, the chopper is not great, the TV missile is useless
~ weapon too power, medic not as needed as BF2
~ no way to get the titan drop point, or I shall ask why we need transport to titan instead pod you to enemy titan
~ walker shake too much, hard to target.

Over all, 2142 is a very fun game but the BF2 game play is just better.  Term really need to work togeter to win in BF2.
Personally, I just like BF2 more.

Medic is just as important in 2142 as in 2 (if not more because of the high amount of teamplay)

What do you mean? do you mean how to get on the titan?, then use an APC/Squad beacon/Transport to get to the titan?
Or do you mean this:

The walkers doesn't shake,, it walks and you just have to stop when you want to shoot accurately or get skills

-not enough change

-Air vehicles completely stripped down and noobified.EMP kills them in one shot anyway so they aren't even worth using.

-infantry game degraded into standing still and firing.LMG users are rewarded for camping because of the accuracy.

-Titan mode is different,but you will rarely get in the damn thing because of the claymores/RDX/wall hacking gun turrets.it's basically Karkand compressed into a 100x100 foot space.

They are noobified and "nerfed" to remove focus from the skies (one of the most gameplay killing features of BF2, it was/is all about WHO CAN GET TO TEH CHOPPA / JET FIRST, the rest will take whatever is left )

Standing still and firering ?   what do you want ? 100% accuracy while sprinting towards your target ? (cuz that would suck)
LMG's accuracy had been nerfed (balanced out) since patch 1.35, and tbh,, a support player should hang back and SUPPORT (yes funny huh?) his team, not run and gun (which is the assault & scout class' job....

Helpfull tool in titan #1: Grenades (yes you can throw your grenades at them too!
Helpfull tool in titan #2: Clark explosive launcher can clear RDX and APM's, so can the Zeller-H sniper and a pack of RDX
Helpfull tool in titan #3: Turrets will target you through walls sometimes, yes... but they can't hit you... use this to your advantage by distracting a turret while your mates shoot it....
Helpfull tool in titan #4: The assault class rocket launchers do a great job at clearing out those pesky campers down the hallway (and they will even damage the consoles if you aim them!)


But you are right, there are too many grenade spamming noobs.. but they will allways be there as long as grenades are in games.. so we will just have to outsmart and outskill them !

i just think its too easy... less variety of play as well.. well they included titan which was fun for like 2 weeks of so then just got repetitive, the way bf2 included jets and choppers and tanks, which included skill kinda... and not just ooo shield up thing

the only fact i liked was the major gen + ranks where only a certain amount of poeple can hold em, but just means that they really had nothing to do or had no life. i cant talk i held major gen for 2 weeks until i quit

imho al that is.. dont care if ya flame or whatever

2142 is FAR better than the 2 series. Way better weapons and kit-combo possibilities. FAR better game/team play. FAR better designed maps. AWESOME vehicles (TY DICE for no jets). MUCH harder to nade spam (shut up if you even THINK about saying ANYTHING along the lines of "nade spamming in titan corridors" because that is just good gameplay and if you don't know how to combat that then you suck.)
