Playing the beta tonight :)
(or trying depending on how fubar'd everything is)
I'm curious how the battle mechs are to control. Oh and tell us more about Titan mode and whether you think it will replace conquest mode.
SWEET you got in! I was too late :( I join servers through Xfire and was too lazy to load the game by itself and go to their website. But, I figured if it appears on the menu screen...it's too late LOL.Quote:

It runs pretty smoothly (unlike BF2).
The support class gun mows 'em down nicely. :cool:
I think I'll pass on buying it, however.
Good show, keep us updated. When is it supposed to be out? (yes to lazy to search:)
Learux
Gamespot has it down for Oct 10th........47 days away!
Well I installed it remotely from work but can't play it at the moment obviously. The install went smooth :)
oh just say screw your boss and play it,lol.
I've got a few things I HAVE to do first and then BF here I come :)Quote:

I'll pass.

The way medic and resupplying is done is hokey and incovenient. You throw a resupply box down and it makes a weird explosion noise. Then you have to wait a while before you can drop another.
It's comparable to BF2 in a lot of ways, but it lacks the fun factor for me.

By the way, 2142 has the same "There is a problem with your connection" crash bug as BF2. :mad:
I'll have to think more about that.Quote:

I tried to get into the beta but i barely missed it. I love BF2, Should i consider buying this?
The mercs mod has no limits on run time..the maps are awesome as well as the weapons.Quote:

Looks like using the same engine gave the hackers a jumpstart :( :

guess what game i'm not buying...
I haven't played it since the day after I posted this. What a waste of development time.
Well, how much of a BF2 fan were you to begin with?
