[QUOTE=Mr. Gestapo;27237924]The aircraft are pretty easy to fly once you realise that the more thrust you apply, the further forward your jets tilt forward, therefore turning you from helicopter controls to jet controls. If you want to stay hovering you've got to tap the trust key every now and then rather than hold it down![/QUOTE]
Revelation time: Hold reverse thrust and the jets will stay vertical at the throttle needed to maintain altitude. You can apply additional thrust with the forward key while holding down reverse to increase altitude.
Someone add me (ZeroG_181) and let's find a game.

[QUOTE=Dzonintz;27238124]I will buy this when it becomes available on Steam, then I'll join you guys.
Also first post of page 9.
If I remember correctly, I heard that there was map named Belgrade in 2142, and that it's played a lot.
Not sure tho.[/QUOTE]Nobody plays belgrade anymore. It was my favourite map at one point, especially on infantry only.
[QUOTE=ashzu;27237954]I dislike the current team state because In fights there's only around 2-5 people on each side fighting each other. (Unless you play 24/7 Camp Gibraltar)
It's lonewolf most of the time and I hate that.
Also if you spawn at a point and there's no transport anywhere it's such a pain in the ass to walk to the action.[/QUOTE]
That's just the playerbase being stupid has nothing to do with the game. BF2 has nearly the same setup and there's plenty of teamplay there.
Just did a round on Tampa, I scored 14-6 (2 of those deaths being due to baserapists) in a gunship with an awesome guy gunning. We took out 4 enemy gunships, 5 tanks, 2 dropships and two walkers as well as maybe 6 infantry, a couple of whom were rival gunship crew.
The EU revolver is fucking awesome.

I think I may reinstall the game.
My name ingame is xlucidx.
Wasn't there a website that would let you look at player cards and the like?
edit:
v That's it, thanks.

[QUOTE=Mr. Gestapo;27238050]Also that video was 7 clips with a total size of 27 gigabytes merged into one video. Final size was 1.36 GB
People not joining squads doesn't even make sense. If you join a squad you have an additional spawn point available to you, meaning that you could get even closer to an objective or get into an advantageous position. You also get bonus points for completing objectives that the commander or squad leader has set.[/QUOTE]
I agree with you. The people not in squads are stupid and ramboers. But some people are just stuck up and would rather be leader then follower. I see myself as a follower most of the time.
I think it should be more of an all-or-nothing deal. If you join a squad you do it to teamplay, if you're just going to rambo anyway even if you are in a squad you could kindly gtfo so people who actually want to teamplay, can.
And sometimes you might not want to so that's why you don't have to join a squad. Sometimes I do want to lone wolf (mostly after joining several lone wolf squads and giving up) and just don't squad.

brb installing bf2 and bf2142
If anyone has a way to go onto a site like Electronic arts site and find your registered Bf2142 key and it works way before 2010 then i would be very happy!
[QUOTE=Guniv;27234362]
the way i see it
1942 > BF2 > 2142 > Vietnam > Bad Company 2: Vietnam > Bad Company 2 > Bad Company
i'm probably forgetting something oh well[/QUOTE]
Is everyone here one of those "I hate BC2 because it went under the battlefield name"? I don't see what's wrong with it, better than Call of Duty anyhow.
Also, why is BF2 good? The big maps are just lonewolfing/vehicle whoring with no cohesion to the team whatsoever, and the small infantry + light vehicle maps are the same idea. A clusterfuck of people with a very simple outlook on teamwork, mostly just doing their own thing. When does the fun start?
QUESTION. How do i get BF 2142 working again. Every time i insert the disk it brings up some bullshit about inserting the proper disk. I legally brought the game. I can prove it. It just won't run.

Proof i played, i sucked but was a good medic.

Anyone know how to stop the annoying, uncontrollable stuttering which effects every server I join? Apparently it's a Punkbuster issue, but I already updated it to the latest and edited the Services.
I had to run it in XP compatibility mode and give myself full Admin rights upon running the game from the exe. in the game folder.
[editline]7th January 2011[/editline]
Installing now, awesome nostalgia trip in 5.4.3.2.1.

If you were a good medic you'd have a high SPM.
I'm going to go run into a game, if anyone's interested: JaxStrife
Anybody know if pirating a game, and using the Real serial key on the torrent works?
[highlight](User was banned for this post ("Warez" - rilez))[/highlight]
Dunno, should work.
I wish 2142 Wake Island was being added in the 1.51 patch. I remember vaguely being told it was being added in 2007/2008 and if I remember correctly was made by a member of the Sir. Community.

You could just register your serial on EADM?
[QUOTE=BmB;27253171]You could just register your serial on EADM?[/QUOTE]
Maybe. I'm just not So sure about That, since It's a retail game
Well people registered their Steam BC2 keys on EADM back in that scam thing.
[QUOTE=BmB;27253262]Well people registered their Steam BC2 keys on EADM back in that scam thing.[/QUOTE]
I'll try it later today.
So when are we all getting together next?
Pissed my girlfriend off last night, kinda gave her the blow off to play some BF2142.
Maintained a 2+ K/D ratio most of the time.
Was totally worth it.
No bows, been with her for 2 years, one night off isn't gonna kill her :smug:
Fuck bitches, get promoted
Fuck bitches, installing the game. Now to find all the patches.

It's already in the game.
[QUOTE=Lizzrd;27259726]It's already in the game.[/QUOTE]
Since when? I've played the latest patch and the last new map I can remember is Highway Tampa. Maybe I just overlooked it completely. It's on my to play list along with 2142 Strike at Karkand now :)
Are we going to make an unofficial clan? As in, just put FP or something as clan tags, just for ease of co-ordination.
Also dammit I remembered that when EA combined all my accounts under the same email into one account it deleted my main characters for the BF series. Now I am back to private.
