for those of you wondering how good the new game will be I figured I'd ease your minds.

right now, the game is absolutely HORRIBLY buggy and glitchy and has exploits out the yin-yang, but that should all get fixed from the beta test. after those problems are resolved the game kicks some major ass. there are a couple of issues with the gameplay that's actually working as intended that are annoying and are in SEVERE need of change, but those things are getting thread after thread after thread on the beta tester forums, so they should get changed before the end of beta.

in all, it's going to be a game equally if not more great than its predecessors. the game is chock full of new stuff with enough old stuff that you won't get lost. from the start things take a bit of getting used to but it's well worth the time spent. all in all I'd say the game will definitly be worth the money as long as they remove the bad decisions they made in a few areas of the game as the fans are demanding they do.

now, of course, I'm under an NDA, but I figured I'd at least rest you guys' minds about the upcoming game if you were worried it would suck.

I bought BattleField 2 myself. Wasn't impressed. Just isn't for me. I prefer Steam FPS games.
I don't think I'll be buying it, but meh, something will probably change my mind.

I have the demo of Battlefield 2, quite enjoying it so far but I think I might need to upgrade my PC before I even think about 2142

yeah, it's a VERY different style of game.

personally, I like both.

I'm in the Beta and (mostly) loving it. Aside from the frequent server crashes.
