Let's play Battlefield 2142 - Games

Holy fuck, strike at karkand. Installing as we speak.

Wait wait wait. I'm confused--is 1.51 out of beta or not?

[QUOTE=JoeSibilant;27946575]Wait wait wait. I'm confused--is 1.51 out of beta or not?[/QUOTE] The beta is now the final since nothing needed to be fixed between the two.

[QUOTE=matt54;27946495]Holy fuck, strike at karkand. Installing as we speak.[/QUOTE] Wait what? ... HOLY SHIT Karkand 2142! Playing all tomorrow.

[QUOTE=credesniper;27939690]If you run certain BF games with steam(startup through steam) it'll give an error. You can have steam running, just don't play 2142 through it.[/QUOTE] My copies of both BF2 and 2142 are dvds, not steam. It's weird because they worked fine until about 3 weeks ago. I'll try disabling my firewall

Should I install the 1.51 patch or just 1.50 patch for now?

[QUOTE=philo737;27950092]Should I install the 1.51 patch or just 1.50 patch for now?[/QUOTE] 1.51 as this is what all servers are running now/will be running in the next few days

[QUOTE=luckyg;27950101]1.51 as this is what all servers are running now/will be running in the next few days[/QUOTE] Alright, cheers

Reinstalling this game. Loved it so much back in the day. [editline]9th February 2011[/editline] What the fuck? No widescreen support? 1900 x 1080?

No widescreen support? 1900 x 1080?[/QUOTE] There's widescreen support but they forgot to add it to the settings menu, you'll have to use some launch options. Here is mine for 1440x900 res: +widescreen 1 +szx 1440 +szy 900 So yours should be +widescreen 1 +szx 1900 +szy 1080

Since when is 1900x1080 a standard resolution? [editline]9th February 2011[/editline] Did the 1.51 patch really come out. I saw like 3 different patch versions, and the one i downloaded from some links Baza showed only give me 3 servers.

Meant 1920 x 1080. And thanks [editline]9th February 2011[/editline] It looks good, except the text looks like shit. The game looks good though.

is page 13 not working or something

Just got out of a great round. Loving Northern Strike so far, Bridge at Remagen is an awesome map. [URL=http://filesmelt.com/][IMG]http://filesmelt.com/dl/screen002.png[/IMG][/URL] Curses!

We spent this week fixing them and have verified everything is working with some of the RSP's (thanks XFactorServers.com and ArtOfWarCentral.com). The official release of BF2142 v1.51 will be on Tuesday 15th Febuary. This does mean there is another patch file which EVERYONE will need to download and install. If you have v1.51 installed already you will need to go into Regedit and modify version number from 1.51 to 1.50 before running the install file. [/quote] Also: [quote=Bazajaytee]We will be running this update for a few weeks before we look at STEAM for BF2142.[/quote] To be honest I don't really understand why you wouldn't release it on Steam. It would be an opportunity for EA to make a bit more money off the game since I doubt that they're making much off sales at the moment.

I still have no idea which patch is which. On the EA forums I find like 5 "Official" release topics for several 1.51 patches.

Oh god now I have to buy it again, on Steam. It's too much hassle to download patches nowdays. Hope it's $10 or something, with BC2 being $20 I can't see it still being that high. Battlefield 2 is, though :(

I would pay $20 for this since it's such a fantastic game, don't think I'd pay any more than that though. I can't really compare the price to BC2 though, since that's $40 in Australia..

I got it a few months after I began playing BF2142, and I loved loved loved it. It's still the only game I've liked enough to buy an expansion pack for, though.

A few WEEKS until it comes to Steam? Uhgg, why not just release it now and update it later. I'm tired of waiting for this game to go up.

So the patch finally came out, but only like 5 servers come up. I think people are still confused about it. [url]http://blogs.battlefield.ea.com/battlefield_bad_company/archive/2011/02/15/Battlefield-2142-update.aspx[/url]

I'll just stick to 1.5 then

So the jump to 1.51 has finally come. I hope it brings in more players.

As soon as this hits Steam, I'll pay for it.

Now there are about 35 servers, only 2 are full. I played a reeeally long round of 2142 Karkand, and god it was fun. Full teams, neck and neck, I went 42 and 15 I think with the sniper kit on EU, 2142 seems to feel like it hits more compared to BF2 in general. Will play tomorrow if you all want to.

oh mgtygod it's out!? [editline]18th February 2011[/editline] Im so excited right now [editline]18th February 2011[/editline] Too bad all the cool kids are playing Planetside right now :( [editline]18th February 2011[/editline] [url]http://forums.electronicarts.co.uk/battlefield-2142/1347259-battlefield-2142-v1-51-installation.html[/url] Install the game, install 1.5, then install 1.51 FYI.

I remember playing this a lot, then I lost my account for some reason. Bought a new copy recently, if anyone's playing I'll join in.

Awesome, Falcon support.

If your resolution isn't in the dropdown list: +widescreen 1 (assuming widescreen, else use +fullscreen) +szx 1920 +szy 1080 <- your res, this is 1080p

Anyone still playing this?
