Battlefield 2142, Confirmed... somewhat.

See for yourselves. I forsee this to be another half-arsed pseudo-sequel like BF:V, frought with problems upon release that won't be properly resolved until after the BF3 is released.  :doubt:

And guess what, it's being released for PC and '360! Hooray for console bastardisation!!

So it seems. With Earths non-ice covered land mass diminishing there's a fight on to claim the sweet spots.

Good excuse for a rumble really.

???

Did fine because it came out on PC and on XBox, you mean?

You do realise there was about a 3 year delay before the XBox release, yes?

Looks promising. If they manage to capture the gameplay feeling of BF1942 with a good SP stroyline, it might be great. On the other hand, it is a EA game, so I'm not holding my breath.

Dammit. They still haven't fixed the CTD and the Red/Blue Bug in BF2 and they are not only creating expansion packs, which have issues in and among themselves, but a new game with out fixing the last one. True, BF games are very complex, but fix the one before moving on to the next.

wasn't hideously ugly, it was hideously old. it was made before the xbox was even released.

Looks cool....sort of what I figured it might be.  I'm interested.

BF2 is a fun game for me....haven't bought any addons or anything.  Still unlocking weapons...big fan of the sniper and spec ops classes.  Getting used to the engineer too.

Well atleast Trailer looks good, but gotta wait a while until they give us in-game shots but I'am interested to see this game in action.

It does look promising. I have my hopes up for this since I too enjoy BF2 quite a lot -even if it does not sound like that on our TeamSpeak :p - (also own SF and planning to purchase the EF aswell).

The giant mechs looks awesome but the game itself  looks like a reskinned bf2. Besides they just released Bf2 around last year!  I think they should fix the bugs of their older games before they go out and make new sequels.

I have better hopes for Enemy Territories: Quake Wars.

From the trailer...it looks like BF2 style graphics.  I don't see this as a cop out either....BF2 looks beautiful on my old system.  I'm not getting anywhere near the full effects that the engine is capable of putting out.

I'd be more concerned that the interface is optimised and loading times reduced as much as possible. That's my great beef with BF2. It might look pretty but it sure as hell beats your system into submission to do it.

The trailer is over at FilePlanet as well.
