I personally hate the idea of Battlefield 2; placing the Special Forces add-on and same game in the same map to give people that bought the add-on an extra advantage is just plain crappy.

4/14/2006 10:01:14 PM

it is like 20 bucks for the add on. It is a business. I am just glad they continue to support it and release patches and add-ons rather then just dropping it on the market and moving onto the next game.

4/14/2006 11:12:48 PM

i wish they would... battlefield 2142 could be awesome

^ I can think of dozens of situations where that would put you at a pretty bad disadvantage

4/27/2006 6:13:54 PM

I still wish I could transfer points I've spent unlocking some weapons into some of the newer ones...

Anyway, is the word about new classes of fighters true?

4/28/2006 2:52:14 PM

new fighters?

"Battlefield 2: Armored Fury will add three new maps, all set in the rural heartland of America where the US forces defend their homeland from Chinese and MEC forces. This Booster Pack will also introduce two new vehicle classes: Attack Jets with the ability to use rocket pods and cluster bombs, and agile Scout Choppers which will reveal nearby enemies. "Midnight Sun" takes place on the Alaskan border, where Chinese forces make landfall. "Operation Harvest" will take the player to the vast open plains of Pennsylvania where only the expert use of air and armor will assure victory. "Operation Road Rage" sees all-out tank warfare on the freeways of America."

Information about the latest addon, as reported by Gamespy and IGN.

4/30/2006 3:15:45 PM

hot shit, no more friendly fire due to missiles.

thank god.

CAN I CONTROL MY JET WHILE I MOUSELOOK THOUGH??? NO!!!

4/30/2006 5:45:30 PM

Hell yes. I already enjoy hunting vehicles from the air, but the A-10 is just the creme de la creme.

5/2/2006 9:56:11 PM

just got a 7900gt and i can play bf2 at 1600x1200 4xaa and everything high perfectly. it's so fucking sexy!

5/2/2006 10:13:07 PM

i may have missed this in the list of fixes in the patches but do grenades from the the assault weapon grenade launcher now bounce off Humvee's? cause i was just playin and i lost track of how many times the damn thing would just bounce off the surface of the vehicle and go in other directions.

5/3/2006 3:23:28 PM

I wish someone would do a "civilian" mod where innocents are running around the streets with their hands over their head running between cover.

You'd lose points if you capped one, like if you teamkilled someone.

5/3/2006 3:53:13 PM

That would be pretty cool for some of the more urban maps. It would be kinda redundant for the Dalian Plant and others.

5/3/2006 4:17:24 PM

yeah I'm talking Mashtuur, Karkand, Sharqi here.

5/3/2006 10:00:14 PM

i dont feel like going through this whole thread

but how do i upgrade my sniper rifle?

obviously i dont play this game much...

5/3/2006 10:25:37 PM

get points, get a rank of lance corperal or higher, get promoted, re-log in, select unlock, done

on that note however I think something is funky with EA's servers about unlocks today.... several ppl including myself have been getting 'undefined' as our unlock choice, and that's it, accept and it repeats indefinatly, cancel and it goes away, no way of selecting any weapon... very odd

5/3/2006 11:45:10 PM

I am here to officially say that I suck at sniping.

I've always been the "rambo style" fps gamer, and this sit back and plink away shit sucks... but I still need to get my basic sniper badge to get to the next rank and its proving to be very difficult.

5/4/2006 9:44:10 AM

So, let me raise the question once again about good servers. I'd love to find more which run Euro Force maps, but so far the only one I know of is ICUS. Also, I know I'm in the minority, but I am WAY beyond sick and tired of Mashtuur, Karkand, and Sharqi. Are there any good servers which don't run those...? (Or at least not as every other map in the rotation.) No planes = no fun.

5/4/2006 10:00:04 AM

Axelay,

I'll tell you, when I'm playing by myself, I fly the planes because I feel that I have the biggest impact in one.

However, once I started playing with teammates and talking on TS, its ALOT more fun to ground pound with them.

5/4/2006 2:08:22 PM

yea i've always played in a good squad and we wreak havoc

but in lieu of the new booster pack thats comin out, looks like i better start learnin how to fly aircraft

if you allready have master seargant you cannot get the next 'subrank' just by getting the awards

5/4/2006 6:59:24 PM

so I'm wasting my time then in futility?

5/4/2006 7:02:21 PM

^ just go sniper jump in a jet and get 20 kills. im pretty sure you will get the badge. i know you could do this with a tank.

5/4/2006 7:27:13 PM

yeah, unfortunatly I think so, I just read that on the ubar site.... i need the knife one before i get to master but then again I think I would prefer to be different...

5/4/2006 7:27:20 PM

^Songhua is a good map to get your knife badge on. Lots of trees to hide in and then rush out stab some ppl. Helps if your sniper too as you blend in better. I would run around the cps and then come up from behind worked pretty well got veteran knife that way.

Well, that's the biggest part of my problem. I really don't have the time to play regularly, so I always wind up playing in pickup/public games. Unfortunately, most of the really high quality servers I frequent are also home to some of the biggest clan stackers I have ever seen. It is very difficult to get into a decent squad unless you wind up on the clan's team, and even then they usually don't let anybody into their squad unless they have the same clan tag. As a result, I wind up doing the air-to-ground support thing about 90% of the time I play. I make for a FAR more effective air support combatant than I do a rifleman.

I swear, I sure do miss Tribes...

5/5/2006 5:18:03 PM

Hahaha that one glitch where you see someone on your team that looks red... it actually helped me out today. I was in that alley in Karkand near the hotel. I had just ran out of ammo and was running when all these USMC guys came out of nowhere (I was MEC obviously). I didn't start shooting at them since I was in the middle of reloading, so I think they thought it was the glitch. I pulled out my knife and started knifing but there weren't any gunshots so nobody was looking at me... I got 6 knife kills before someone noticed and shot me.

5/5/2006 5:44:33 PM

Axelay, we usually play on monday nights... We're always looking for a few more good men.

Hit me up on AIM on mondays if you want to play. We usually start around 4:30, take a break for dinner and then resume at 8pm.

5/5/2006 8:20:09 PM

Thanks for the offer, but I'm always out at Margarita Mondays before 7:00.

By the way, I've been messing with the JSF for over 2 weeks now, and I absolutely CANNOT get it to go to 0 thrust. I have even just sat on the deck and tried to find the "sweet" spot on my throttle which will have it "idle," but not VTOL. No luck, though...

I'm getting so excited about 2142 now. Customizable weapons and loadouts completely do it for me. I also like the greater incentives to be in a squad now. I hope these ideas turn out as well as I am imagining.

5/9/2006 12:33:25 PM

i found this funny at the end of a wake round. never seen a plane just park itself on the bridge b4..lol.

5/11/2006 3:22:49 AM

Who's the admin for this section? I was wondering if we could get them to change the topic to add 2142 so we could just keep this thread going.

5/11/2006 8:01:04 AM

that game is looking pretty interesting actually.... i'm a big mech fan....

5/12/2006 4:15:48 AM

Watched 2 gameplay movies last night and am pretty impressed (even though there wasn't too terribly much to see in them). The hovertank reminds me quite a bit of the one in Tribes. One of the rifles an infantryman was using had a HUGE bluish muzzle flash. That seemed overly distracting to me - it'd make it pretty hard to hit your target when all you can see is the flash.

5/12/2006 8:00:51 AM

does the second sniper rifle unlock zoom in even further than the .50 cal?

i love sniping from really far away, but the crosshairs on the .50 are so fat they almost completely obscure my enemy at times

im also having trouble figuring out how much to lead people when they're running

5/12/2006 4:39:15 PM

i doubt it zooms farther
the crosshairs are thinner on the l96 though and it fires faster than the m24

5/12/2006 4:46:28 PM

well i know the m24 zooms farther than the beginning rifles

5/12/2006 4:49:27 PM

uhhh the m24 is a 'beginning' rifle....

got your view distance set to 100% and geometry at max?
