Because everyone uses it! They think its better and the only situation where it really stings out is when you run around a corner and a guy with a VOss pops up in front of you, he will score the kill. But as soon as you are a few feet away, he fails.N00bkilla55404 wrote:

The Voss is at a disadvantage versus the other ARs unless there are like five guys all closely grouped together at close range.

- BF2142 1.5 patch on the way! Public Beta soon.
Well lets hope it's a good patch and the servers don't crash running the extra content. If they can acheive that I might have to come out of retirement.

New content... hmm, you guys got any suggestions/predictions?
- 2 New Maps: Strike at Karkand and Wake Island 2143.
They said new experiences. Which is why I doubt they'd do that. Wake and Karkand are not new experiences to anybody on the planet. I really hope the new maps (assuming there are new maps) will be completely unique. If it's just 'a large vehicle map and an urban map' i'll be disappointed.

- Futuristic jets to accompany Wake Island. These jets will also be intergrated into Titan Mode.
I don't want jets. They ruin BF2 vehicle maps. Maybe some sort of huge slow gunship/bomber type thing would be good though.
Yes, manned by 6 people - pilot, TV gunner, and 4 support guns, LIKE THE GOLIATH LOOOLZLALAOOLSpidery_Yoda wrote:

Hmm a flying Goliath. With auto repair and everything. I think it would be unstoppable.
Hmm what could there be. Maybe 1 man vehicles. Flying ones. Jetpacks

lol i think a map or 2 along with other stuff
A new Titan would be awesome.
A map based around a single Super Titan. Iron Gator style.
It would be an incredible map. The Titan could be airbourne or crashed. Either way it would be great.

After the crash you need to fight your way in again (with the added bonus that the corridor campers need to hurry back after bailing/dieing) to finish it off.
I'd hit it!

Fool#1 is no more
Fool#2 is no more
Fool#3 is no more
Fool#4 is no more
Fool etc...
Or...
Super Titan [Roflpwncrashed] Everyone
I'd really like a proper night map, not that dusk-type scenary from Liberation of Liepzig. And Spidery's idea, holy shit that'd be immense. The PAC uncap on a desert island, with an EU Titan in mid-air over the Pacific Ocean. Control points include the back of the Titan, each of the 4 consoles, and the Command room at the front.
Holy shit that would be epic
If EA want to revive 2142, they should release a full Expansion Pack, just like BF2:SF!! Imagine the Special Forces of 2142 - with their storylines of being without men due to the weather conditions

They'd charge money if they were going to add a new faction, and upgrading graphics is practically impossible without upgrading the game engine.
HAHAHHAHAHAHA
Africa? Yeah that would be cool, a bunch of guys running around either half-starved to death or dying of AIDS. Lookout, here comes an HIV-Missile!!!
Haha HIV Missile rofl.
A big Airmap like 1942's Battle of Britain, with super big Titan's that have UAV/commander toys on top. Using the gunships (unlimited respawn of them) players can blow up the toys, JUST LIKE STAR WARS BATTLEFRONT II
A team can invade the other team's Titan and vice-versa. As well as normal AA guns on the sides of the Titans, there will be two or three TV missile pods, one on top of the Titan and two controlled from the inside

make the titans actually fall, rather than explode like hell.
I heard from a reliable source that the 'new experiences' are designed to give commanders more to do...
The Titans will now sport a "robotic invasion shaft".
Recall the amusing 'Titan Humping" glitch? Rather than fix it, DiCE has decided to incorporate it into regular gameplay. When one commander positions his titan close to and behind the opposite titan, a "robotic invasion shaft" will descend from the Titan "pitcher" and slowly make it's way toward the Titan "catcher". At that point, there will open a minigame whereby the Titan Pitcher will maneuver the invasion shaft into the Titan Catcher's exhaust shaft. All the while, the Titan Catcher will squirm and shift and try to avoid invasion. [Try to picture the process whereby fighter jets refuel from C130's in mid-air... just like in the original NES Top Gun game!]
The Pitcher will have 2 minutes to complete his mission. If the Pitcher is successful in positioning the Invasion Shaft properly, loads of soldiers will discharge into the Catcher's Core, allowing immediate attack. If the Catcher is successful in avoiding rear invasion, the robotic invasion shaft will break off and fall to the ground, leaving behind a large gaping hole on the Pitcher.
I know it all sounds ridiculous and unreasonable, but I heard it from a reliable source on the internets.
And FTR - the African HIV-missle will be deployed on all EU and PAC gunships.

I bet it´s nothing special. They probably just expand the assault lines mode on the other conquest maps. Which would be cool.
So true. Assault Lines is probably the best Battlefield gamemode.Sisco10 wrote:

I was just playing 2142 this morning. Didn't take me long to remember why I hadn't touched it in months. It totally sucks. It's slow, jerky, and to be frank, piss boring. I can't understand how it was spawned from BF2, which is still in my opinion one of the best FPS games out there.
All I can hope is that this patch sorts things out a little, but I would have have much preferred to hear about a new patch for BF2. After all, as has been pointed out, many more people are still playing that. Rightly so IMO, as it is by far the superior game.
I'll check out the patch when it comes out, but I don't have high hopes It'll need to be quite the overhaul. I'm thinking that BF2 will continue to be my FPS of choice, and when I fancy something futuristic, I'll be leaving 2142 exactly where it is, and reaching for ET:QW every time.

Will be interesting seeing what they are gonna change. Think i might pick my CD up again when it comes.
@ the comments on Voss it´s a very forgiving gun allowing unexperienced and poorer players a good chance dropping their targets, larger mag, good sight low recoil, high ROF. Press the button point at your target empty your mag and a kill. The other AR:s are as said by some better imo too but that´s also very personal.

Voss doesn't pwn so much anymore, I go for krylov or SCAR and then the shotgun is making it really hard for Voss to win. Most medics i meet with Voss are dead in one shot.
Slow and boring? BF2 is the same for me, with choppers and jets taking the fun out of being in apcs or tanks, only choice left is ground infantry. But then you will run in to tanks, APCs and other shit so the only class for survival is AT kit with a shitty range weapon and only good close combat weapon only to find out the shot fail to register half the time leaving you dead for any medic. Then half the team don't wanna be AT kit because of the shitty weapon and the rest don't feel like it and hope the jets and chopper take them out. So the only one having fun are the jets and choppers fellas where there are only 2 jets and 1 chopper. AA turrets do shit against them and taking them out is somewhat easy if they don't know where you are but if they know you are fucked. All big maps have jets to, making your life a living hell from getting to flag to flag. IO is the only thing that is fun now and Sharqi without IO. The rest maps are to anoying to play now.
