2142 Patch 1.51 - 17/09/2010

I'd install this again but EA Store still doesn't support Vista/Windows 7 x64. Wow.

I remember emailing for a refund because EA failed to make it clear Vista/Windows 7/x64 bit platforms are not supported, but they refused. How can they be stuck in the dark ages when it comes to Windows platforms?

What do you mean?
 
Tempted to reinstall... loved the squad mechanics in 2142 with the orbital drop things :D

Shame it didn't get released on steam for a little revival ^^

I believe it will get a Steam re-release. As long as they don't charge silly money for it i think it'lls ell well. no more than £9.99 I'd hope.
 
Guys I bought the deluxe retail edition a long time ago, how do I go about activating northern strike?

Does patch 1.5 include it or do you still need to activate to play the content?

Oh I see, 1.51 and it includes northern strike! Oh joy

Just to let you know I had a few problems installing 2142.

It wouldn't let me install 1.51 to the 'virgin' game - kept saying the game was already more upto date than the patch!!

Way around it for me was to install patch 1.5 first and then 1.51 - Just played it for an hour or so - seems to be working well although having not played this for 18mth-2yrs I'm getting killed big time :)
 
If you're having trouble with the patch saying the game is already up-to-date go into the registry for Battlefield 2142 and change the 'Version' Value to 1.50

It worked for me.
