I haven't played the beta or the demo of 2142 yet so I am wondering what you all think. How is the game overall? Is it exceeding expectations? Will I still have BF2 withdraws?

 

Hook a brotha up.

I am impressed with the performance of it. I'm running at 1920x1200 with settings on med-high and I get better FPS and less lag than BFV or BF2.

 

I wasn't sure about the whole sci-fi thing, but it allows for better balance due to the fact that they can just "make it up". Finally gone are the completely dominating airplanes...etc.

 

The walkers are kind of cool, but still die pretty fast to concentrated fire. Tanks could use a bit of a boost IMO, they get brought down by pretty much anything in a hurry.

 

At least for now, the lack of grenades is awesome. Too bad they are an unlock. It actually allows for some type of defense since cover provides you with actual protection instead of a blind spot for grenades to get you.

I really like the Beta, and now the Demo. In the Beta, however, we were allowed to "rank-up", and it was nice having the unlocks to play with. It will add a new level when the game is released and we get serious :thumbsup: about playing it.

 

It adds a new dimension to Battlefield, and I look forward to seeing the new maps. Looks like they had a city map or two in the lineup, so I look forward to playing them.

 

The Titan mode seems like it will be the most fun, so we will have to vote as a group to see how run our server. I foresee playing the city maps in the "Conqest" mode, and play the larger open maps ion the "Titan" mode.

 

The in-game buddy system allows us to join our friends without using XFire, because it has the same function. ...very cool!

 

The vehicles are fun, although I get motion sickness in the Walkers, so don't expect to see me riding very often in them. White-Nine found a setting that stops the player movement (swag), so now I can walk without getting sea sick..

 

We have our own server, so we can play what game we want, and what mode we want. Lets see how it goes, and we can discuss many options. The dog tags after a knife kill are great.

Yes it will be great because yours will be the first tags I will run away with Mwahahahahahahha.

THe demos O.K. Once again it takes a full clip to kill someone at far range even though I have the dot right on their head. Up close is good though and overall lotsa fun with the new walkers and the helo things are easy to fly.

1. team play is rewarded.

 

2. vehicles are nicely done and add a new twist to things

 

3. levels are very nice and clean looking (i agree with gator on the titan for the large open maps, although it would be nice to toss in a city map with titan for some chaotic gameplay)

 

4. weapons are well done. still getting used to them but they seem sufficient.

4.a. HUGE KICK ASS REVOLVER WITH A BLOCK BARREL.... *drool*

 

5. Unlocks are (in the words of Peter Griffin) "Freakin Sweet"

Its definitley a more team oriented game, you get more points by really playing as a squad and pushing for objectives. Its hard to play without the unlocks because some things are so vital ie. nades, defib etc...But the default kits aren't terrible. Since there are only 4 main classes, the length of customization is very deep, no two people will probably have the exact same items. I was playing on a regular server last night without titan mode and it just doesn't seem to have fun. Maybe we can run mostly titan mode but throw some conquest in because I don't believe all maps support titan mode.

I think its great game, the only thing is i suck at it so i have to get used to it. There seems to be alot more vehcles, so if ur on foot say good bye cause u have no chance. The tanks have no chance against the walker that is kinda stupid but oh well. I did walk away with 3 dog tags yesterday.

I think there might be one problem with that. From what I remember reading is you can only commit to one game mode either conquest or titan, not both. I could be wrong, but I do remember reading this or hearing this somewhere.

i played last night for about an hour....then when i got back on the play BF2 it seemed rather dull:eek: can't wait for the game to come out! :thumbsup:

That wouldn't make too much sense, im sure you can have some of both. If not, then they better patch that ASAP.

Well I have played on a server on the demo which alternated between titan and conquest every 2 rounds, But that may change when the game is released and its ranked.

 

All in all I think this game is alot of fun, getting bored of the same map but it is still fun . I think titan will be the most popular as it is alot of fun, and I look forward to playing the full game :thumbsup:

So far, so good. :thumbsup:

Not from this time

It works well with my P4-1.8mhz, 1gb pc133 sdram, 100mhz mobo bus, ATI 9600 XT 128mb 4x agp slot = 15-30 fps. No lag yet detected in EA CANADA severs of around 20 players with server ping 70 and my ping in game also 70.

 

Happy with that.

 

That Support soldier gun works best for me so far with high fire rate plus zoom.

 

Those Walkers are awesome for me. Reminds me of where Kol Klink and I first learned to circle strafe. Mech Warrior game. It's cool they walk fast forever and go thru deep water which other's can not. I enjoyed parking one near an AA gun. I jumped out to man AA and shot down aircraft that was shooting my Walker.

 

Should be enjoyable for anyone with as little as my system specs for atleast the change of scenery and activity.
