I disagree with you on this. Dissent should be allowed and mixed with praise. No different than politics. Both sides lobby for a position and a following. Whoever wins the debate wins what gets played nightly.
WAIT! Let me understand... dissent should not be allowed with praise??? Ever hear of sarcasm man? Ever hear of kidding around or busting balls... it is what I do... 😉
Look all I meant is it would have been nice to have CONSTRUCTIVE comments and talk about the new game, not just another F-EA thread thatâs all. That gets real old.
So Duck was being kind of an ass (minor one) for doing such but it did not make me THAT mad and really was not that big a deal for the first time hence the calling him an ass and adding the smiley.
Read busting balls. Do I have to explain this to you sheesh?
Look, I was just trying to keep the thread on topic. I was not unreasonable on this one.

I found good and bad in 2142. I HATE the kits. Why? You have to powerup to add simple shit like grenades or buy ranks? I think thats bullshit. Too much of the mmorph added to the game. Ruins it in fact.
Well to be fair you do get a lot of unlocks early on. I am not saying I like that as much either but they do combine the kits in such a way that you have a lot to start off. AT with repair ability is cool.

I like the look of the game, but the play is no different than BF2. Also its without a doubt built right over the BF2 demo. Every flaw the BF2 demo had, this has. I ran the demo 3x's this week. I had to remap my movement and mouse button keys everytime its started up, same as BF2 until the first patch. Thats total bullshit to leave in 2 year old bugs.
First you meant the demo was built over the beta. Ummm yea.. that is usually how it works. What you think they go and write an entire new engine for the demo after they beta it? THAT is what a beta is!!! Putz! 😉
The fact that the play is not much different than BF2 is a good thing to me. It is like a BF2 mod as people say. That is not a bad thing!!!

Titan mode... well its just gets kinda boring after a couple of hours. I switched to conquest only. Took me a whole round just to get used to the diff in flag hopping.
Seriously? I mean boring how? ALL game types get boring after awhile! This is by definition of anything you do a lot of. I mean in conquest you get flags, in Titan you get silos. Really not much different except the Titan is there and you get to do that stuff toward the end. Just stay on the ground and get silos. and it will basically be conquest 😉

The guns are weak, and its going to take several unlocks to get consistant with your shot, at least for me.
I cannot speak for all kits but the default gun on the engineer kicks ass. I got a lot of good kills with it, works similar to my P90. Just a different look but it basically the same. The other kits guns I did try seemed okay. I never noted anything weird like that.

Vehicles take a bullshit amount of damage. By the time you get a tank to the flag, its damn near ready to blow up 🙁
You sure they are not putting up their shields when you hit them? Instead of smoke you can now put up a temporary force field to protect your vehicle. They do seem a bit harder to take out but if you hit them in the rear they go down man. I think this is a good thing. I have to be honest sometimes in BF2 I take a tank a LONG way just to get taken out fast. I think this is something to get used to and remember all the mines and better weapons are not available until the game ships.

Just for leaving in the key movement bug was enough to put me off. I didn't like how they treated thier programmers either. This company has always taken a big shortcut on quality, but this takes the cake.
I will not disagree here about they key assignment bug, it is BS. I think there is a way around the key error. I have not tried it yet. If it works I will let you know. As for the programmers, I am not getting into the politics of the company here. It is about the game itself. EA is not the first company to treat employees like crap and do that sort of thing. Happens all the time sorry to say.

I'll buy it when its discounted, but not at full price, and not with the cutsey rank up program. Maybe by 3 or 4 patches later, they will have the basics fixed.
ummm you get I think 2 ranks when you sign up through the veterans program. I did it to reserve my name, this is a good thing. If they want to kick in 2 unlocks right off the bat, how is this a bad thing?

Easy on 2142 Lexx, Paladin might think your attacking him.
Thanks for that Duck. So because I like something you do not, it makes *ME* the attacking one?
I am sorry if I gave that impression. I really was not attacking you man.
I am not saying anyone has to like the game or cannot disagree with me! I just would like to discuss point, counter-point, it is called a conversation.
Instead of just a flood of EA sucks, I am not buying this piece of shit game if it was the last game on earth. It sucks.
How is that a discussion or even constructive man?
I simply wanted to talk about the game.
