And undeniably CTF, but it could be an unranked mini-mod created by some modders given advanced access to the mod tools perhaps.

Encouraging news to the competitive gamming community.

We wern't given access to conquest mode in the beta either, DICE probably wanted this to be a surprise.

SURPRISE!!!!

It is a mod, if ypou read the mini description thing to the right of the video it says how they finished it before the game is even released.

No that wasnt beta quality. On max settings the game looks amazing.

And it hadnt even been optimised in the beta, so wait for the demo :p

bf2 looks pretty sweet on high with my radeon 9600

I just need some more RAM

my xfire is darkshines1942, look at some of the screenies, some of them are on high but not a lot.

The lag annoyed me.

Yes, fans of CTF should be quite happy. I created CTF this weekend, and all of the logic and game events are properly working. I have not added sounds to it as yet, but it will all be finished by the time Battlefield 2142 can be purchased. This means that the day you have the box in your hand, is the day that you can play CTF.

Oh, and my grfx settings are pretty bad since I have to write the code, play the game and debug it all on different monitor displays.... long live CTF.

that's what land mines and othe things are for... besides, my plan is for CTF to support all maps, all sizes on the release day.

Oh ya, someone make sure to send me ALOT of coca-cola, since I am the ONLY person creating this mod... going to be quite a few hours of sleep lost on this one.

How did you get access to the full beta?

When the flag is free standing, any plans to add a poll to the flag or will it just hover?

CTF in battlefield is stat padding central.

if you have played either of the bf2 modern combat for ps2/xbox peopel just go to an empty room, get 5 or so clan mates to join them, then they just take it in turns to capture the flags and kick anyone who joins the server so they cant be stoped.

Well its not official so its not ranked. Which means its not statspadding.

i just hope it stays un official or official but with no points earned through playing it. otherwise it will just get abused and have a bad name.

With the stats system, anything can be abused.

yeh but ctf on bf2 mc was like abuse on steroids, easy 200 points in 5 mins.

to be fair people started disregarding rank on that game after a few weeks since it got screwed up so quickly. but still ctf is the mother of all loop holes statpadding wise.

mods can not be ranked via EA, so there is nno such thing as stat padding, as stats and ranks will not be a part of the game.

I liked CTF on BF Modern Combat, i don't know if id like it in a futuristic kind of game though.

Well now that you have the CTF side working, feel like adding a jetpack? :P

Perhaps a spinfusor as well... hehehehee

Then we can call it Tribalfield 2142 :P

One thing I think would be nice is if the flag capture is squad based. i.e. You need 2 or more people from your squad to take the flag. The SL would then be the flag bearer. If he's killed, it automatically transfers to the squad member furthest from your own flag (to prevent exploitation.) Then the same applies when you want to plant the flag, you need 2 or more squad members present.

I think this would greatly encourage strong squad play. The squad with the flag would change color for friendlies. If your squad gets the flag, protect the SL at all costs. If your squad doesn't have the flag, then do your best to make sure that squad lives to plant the flag. Since the enemy won't know who's in what squad, unless they're shooting at the guy with the flag on his back, they won't know if they're fighting someone in the flag squad or not.

I like CTF, never thought i'd see it in BF2142 cause i just didn't it would look right, but i really like your suggestions. That'd be really fun imo, would certainly spice things up abit.

I have the code finalized, the sounds have been created... as soon as the demo is available, I'll be asking people to give it try and collect feedback for tweaks.

I'm putting my money on that being Conquest. The video showswhat appears to be several "CP's".

I highly doubt that. It's just the name of the person that uploaded it.

NO it's not conquest, it is CTF, CPs are only secured for better jumping off points to launch your attack. Yes, I am part of Point of Existence; however I am doing this one solo atm.
