Global Conflict

considering the likes of quake wars and crysis r coming out, i think the battlefiend series has a limited life span.

bf2 was just perfect for me, modern weapons, online play, easy to pick up and enjoy. but so far in 2142 i dont like the way anything feels. The guns feel like toys, the gameplay is exactly the same, i just dont see anything new.

I flew a plane type thingy, it was insanly easy to fly. It didnt feel like i was in the air, it felt like i was playing an arcade game.

I hope im wrong, it has been known to happen once or twice

The titan cannons blow. I had to shoot a tank 5 or 6 times in the top of the turret to kill it. I would have been better off podding down behind it and shooting it in the ass with an AT missile.

Tanks, be aware, there ARE weak points, and its very easy to one-shot a tank.

to each his own i suppose... Ive logged 20 hours with it and i love it....

The planes are like a mix of helo and plane... you can hover and fly and they have dumbfire heat seekers (no lock on required)...

Cannon strength will probably be upped before release

some weird bug we encounter yesterday. The round was like 1mins old and suddenly or titan' hull went down in about 10seconds, the 4 pads are gone in another seconds and 5 seconds later we lost the round.

they glitched into the titan..

Prone on the shield and try to enter one of their planes... then get out and walk backwards against walls to kinda go through them then own because they cant get to you while the doors are closed and you are in the core room..

I wanted to try the Beta but since I will not pay for account I will just have to listen to what you guys are saying.

The guns in BF2 don't fire like real guns either, IMO. Outsniping an M95 is a good example of that. In regards to gameplay, the drop pods and unlockable equipment along with the new game mode add some depth to the game from what I can see. Active camo is pretty damn cool. Also with shorter death durations, you won't see as much medic whoring in 2142.

I'll give you that one. They made the flying so easy that it appears to be impossible to do any cool maneuvers. Of course flying in BF2 is also arcade like with some realistic physics.

Well the things you've mentioned are true: weapons and flight are unrealistic and the core gameplay of infantry combat remains the same. The main reason I would consider buying 2142 is that I like the way BF2 plays(mostly) but am tired of the BF2 maps and settings.

Well consider how many firing positions the titan has. Fire once, switch seats, fire again. You don't have to wait on reload like that. Or even better, have other teammates manning those other cannons and you will bring a tank down in seconds.
Also be aware of their countermeasures; It seems that a lot of vehicles can activate a temporary invulnerability shield.

The titan cannons turn so slowly that if the tank is moving at all its near impossible to use multiple cannons to speed up the process. Even then theyre near uesless.

Also the cannons were made almost specifically to take out apcs to prevent them from boarding your titan

good points interfusions.

Like i say, i hope im wrong.

bf2 was about as 'arcadey' as i like my games to be. My norm is the ghost recon/rainbow 6 series of games but bf2 just struck a cord with me.

I cant see 2142 doing the same.
