Title: BF 2142

Confirmed ...

QuoteToday we have some really big news to share with you. The more sniper-eyed of you out there will probably already know, but we're currently hard at work developing "Battlefield 2142", which is scheduled for release this Autumn. As you'll have guessed, this is a departure for the BF series as we're going into the future - something that a lot of you wanted to see happen in the BF universe. We're creating a ton of cool features that you won't have seen in any BF before, including cloaking devices, mines that follow you, awesome new rifles, guns and grenades, and of course, MECHS! We're developing this here in DICE Stockholm while the DICE Canada studio will be hard at work on a 1.3 update for Battlefield 2, as well as the Armoured Fury Booster Pack.

There'll be an "official" press release later on this week but we know that you guys need to know first. Stay tuned and we'll keep you posted on how 2142 is coming along.

Looks pretty but I wonder if they will bother with a CTF mod for it  :eyebrow:

Full game probably, it's all about the money for them.

Am I the only one excited? I've been looking forward to this since the rumours started, and after seeing that teaser I started goddamn dreaming about it last night (still got my tango kicked though, just like when I play BF2...)

edit: also, Benny is a loser. C'mon, it's Mechwarrior with proper multiplayer!  :cool:

I agree it looks quite fun but I dilike the DICE/EA practice of firing out mediocre addon/conversions which you end up forking out another £20 for. At least with bf1942 they were spaced out! With BF2 you hardly have time to read up on the last one before the next one is out! ...or maybe it's just that I'm getting old :ph34r:

I didn't even get to have one game of SF on Meathook so it's a sure fire thing I ain't buying this!  :angry:
