How is it innovative? The original Unreal Tournament had conquest mode, with about 6 different maps and different goals on every one!

I suggest you watch your language in future.

And guys, this arguing is getting very petty, and is pushing it a little, keep it down please.

so I downloaded the demo 'n all and had a go. The vehicles are a great laugh and pretty good fun but as soon as I'm on foot the combat just isnt fun. I am pretty bad at it I have to admit but seriously how much to guns have to wobble around?! Its practically impossible to take someones head off at any distance with a sniper rifle (recon I think its called in the game). Also the assault kit doesnt seem to do any damage, you try and fire accurate shots at people and if they are around over 10m away it takes a ton of shots. So anyway I'm not very impressed.

This game is just pure rubbish, cant agree with all the above comments more.. you know i think this game is a lot like UT2005 with robots in slow motion.

Altho im not suprised i dont like this game because i play infantry only and hated the tank/apc in bf2, so adding robots and floating tanks/apc that cant now move 3x faster much = ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ for me..

Can someone tell me whats good about this game without just saying 'This games amazing' without actually saying why? please

Thanks

I prefer this now to the route UT has taken.

With UT the past few years (and it looks the same for the next game) I've felt it's become more frantic, there's more information to consume, but for me it's lost any sense of tension and submersion in its fury.

With 2142 I get a much more realistic feeling when I'm playing. I know it's virtual but even so it gets me on the edge. It's like I can really play a strategic part whether I'm sneaking around in the shadows with a rocket launcher, or going full on in a walker blasting the hell out of everything I spot. It's also brought back the feel of 1942 for me a lot, which I didn't get in BF2 (which is totally weird considering it's the same engine?).

Yeah i understand but i think people just get that with any 'new' game they play, like when a lot of people play bf2 for the first time they will feel like that aswell.. but after a month or so is this game seriously going to be picked over bf2? because i would rather play Unreal Tournament 2004 than play this pile off..

BF2 was a new engine compared to bf1942.
BF2142 is imo basically the same engine as BF2 yet slightly console-ready.

Innovative, the mode is almost the same as unreals onslaught and how long has that game been out,,,YEARS. EA just competing for that end of the market as Unreal 2007 and Quake Wars enemy territory are out soon and are going to get good sales especially unreal.So a formula from another game which is a couple of years old isn't quite innovative really is it.If you played Unreal 2004 you would know what I mean.I have owned all the battlefield games and most mods and also unreal so its not like i don't know what i'm talking about.

I got that, but it worked when i cancelled and tried again. It seems to happen randomly, but rarely for me.

I cant wait to buy this game, i might even get it on day one and pay £27. But since i enjoy it so much and i have sold all my other PC games, i think it would be worth it.
 
Wooooooooooo

Loving this!!! Cant wait till i get in the post!!!

:D :D

Oh, my in game nick is Draupnir, for anyone that wants to know :p
 
It seems all the retailers selling 2142 are putting it out on the 20th, even though it's released worldwide on the 17th... Hopefully this will be rectified, i couldn't stand the americans having this for much longer than us :p
 
Remember for all those who have pre ordered it and have played bf2 to sign up for vetrancy, i have and just hopw i can choose when to apply the promotion as if its anything like the beta the 1st 3-5 promotions are easy to get can be done in the space of an hour on titan mode.
 
anybody managed to get any unlocks yet ?

also, why does it say my rank is out of 100,000

does that mean there is no way to rank up and get unlocks ? cos im sure ive seen people using guns that arent standard
