Northern Strike Rant

[m7kf83sf92]

# Tweaked Conquest-assault gameplay (Assault Lines game mode) on all three maps creates more choke points and more heated battles.
# Horizontal podding gives infantry additional ways of moving across the maps quickly

Yay. More choke points. (hopefully not like Camp G 16 or Fall of Berlin.) In Camp G 16, the EU walker invariably defeats the PAC walker unless a really good player gets to it first. They never do. Out of 50+ games of Camp G 16, I have never seen the PAC walker win... And Fall of Berlin. If the EU is good, the PAC never make it out of their uncap...

Epic Titan mode available on two maps, and for the first time in a urban setting, for more intense Titan gameplay.

Ooh. More than one Titan on a map? More gameplay bugs? Great one EA. Oh, right It's a titan on a city map. You didn't need to release a booster pack just to take that one idea out...

Increased persistence. Ten new rewards, one new pin and ten new unlock items at the top of the unlocks trees, available also on core game maps, take persistence to new levels. Unlock credits earned in the booster pack can also be used in the core game.

Don't tell me? The new unocks will beat the old ones? And force everyone to play the booster pack. Good marketing strategy...

Three new maps set in Europe, where snow-covered post-apocalyptic cities and a ridge in the Alps become the new battlegrounds.

Ooh. Haven't we seen snow covered post-apocalyptic cities before. Like Belgrade? Actually I quite liked Belgrade, and the Alps map may be good. You never know...

Only fierce close-quarters infantry battles along claustrophobic city streets and narrow rocky passes will eject the PAC forces from their well-defended positions and push them back towards the sea.

Camp G *cough cough* Belgrade *cough cough*.

I dunno, this booster pack has lowered my expectations of EA. Before it was 1/10 (1 being EA's standard, 10 being most other company's standard (Creative Assembly, Steam, Novalogic...)). Now it's something like -10...

In fact, I don't feel like ranting now. This just makes me sad. Depressed. In fact, it's more depressing than the (excellently set) Belgrade map. EA just raised our hopes and let us down again. I gotta go... I think I'm gonna give up and just play Elxx's SBX2142...

General feeling: depressed

[Elinombrable]

14 years old....dont spect more from this people...im 100% sure that you will revoke all what EA do then...why discuss? its better say...yes..of course...if you dont like good bye.

[Elinombrable]

interesting...are you sure you are 18 yo?

[xXSniper1432Xx]

sweet the booster pack's titan mode is in a city enviroment!!!:)

[Elinombrable]

aham...another interesting comment for a 18 years old...try to mature a bit before posting into a forum.

PD: Sorry i cant post something usefull while i try to understand how a 18 yo post comments like this:

"Agreed EA are bastards. Anyone here who actually bought all the other battlefield games needs to get the tumor checked...."

[Elinombrable]

No..you are pathetic. You cant express a comment without say stupid things...mature people express their oppinion with normal words and they offend nobodie...i think you need to learn to do this first. And i still think BF2142 is a great game. Ok it have some bugs (not very important really) but i still have a lot of fun from it.

[Deesies]

I'm just surprised they have learnt absolutely nothing from their mistakes.

[Whiteplague]

heres an idea, grab your own opinion and take it for a a spin dont use other peoples rants and raves to make your own, this will be fun even if it is only for a few weeks but i WILL have fun with everything on it i can tell already

i bought the booster packs i really liked them i just didnt play because none of my friends had them which put down the purpose of playing b/c its mostly for fun with friends

[Deesies]

No..you are pathetic. You cant express a comment without say stupid things...mature people express their oppinion with normal words and they offend nobodie...i think you need to learn to do this first.

You're the only one who's been offending people in this thread >.>

[Cazzy]

Best under 22 thread of the day!

[InFiDeLiTY]

Here is an idea, dislike the game? Dont Play it, dislike EA? Dont Buy their games, Dont want to pay for the new booster pack? Dont get it

Wow simple logic to follow really

[Shada]

Sorry i cant post something usefull while i try to understand how a 18 yo post comments like this

Meanwhile, I'll try to understand what your obsession is with people's ages :/

[Elinombrable]

yes but english is not my main language you know? anyway you understand right? see that when you dont have more arguments then you attack other things like the way i write...tipical of teenagers. Anyway i say the same to you that to the first one... if you dont like then good bye. Isnt the end of the world.

PD: Nah im only tired of young people that the only thing is say no to all EA does... dont matter whatever they do...they allways say no. And when you give them reasons then they say stupid things like :

"EA are bastards"

"Anyone here who actually bought all the other battlefield games needs to get the tumor checked"

"And please shut the F up and go back to working at Mcdonalds."

Things can be explained on a right way and thouse arent right ways...

[Elinombrable]

Things need to be demostrated and i think im demostrating that im at least "a bit" more mature than you. Anyway im not goint to continue talking about this with you. You will be more mature with the time (i hope). I say the same i said before. If you dont like the booster, dont buy it but try to write correctly on this forums...without offending other people, without rude words..

[Elinombrable]

Yes my grandparent have a tumour...any problem with that? now you have started offending people.

PD: New game mode...it looks awesome...titan on urban maps looks very good.

New unlocks : OF course they look good. Unlocks are allways wellcome :)

New maps and vehicles : I loved the new video vehicle and im still waiting for a video were we can see the other one.

[vbl]

Waste of a post.

Whether or not the new vehicles are good it was posted in another thread that the last games has DECREASING amount of vehicles. So they add an award system. Its easy to get the weapons you need so theres really no more challenge then before. It must means they can add more content at a price we shouldnt have had to pay in the first place.

[MrChris_CJ]

judging by the booster pack, EA has learnt **** all from their previous screw ups, stilll wants to squeeze every last coin from us AND still thinks gamers are stupid

[Elinombrable]

Things cost money...this is like al little mmorpg with big databases and servers were all our information is stored. That costs money (not as much as a mmorpg but we dont pay monthly right? ). Free content can be done if the money they win with the game is rentable enough for all the company but when they have to spend part of this money on maintenance (think that this maintenance will be forever until the end of the game) and they still have to pay the employees for making new patches and others then...

[MrChris_CJ]

and your saying EA doesnt have money? look at 1942, EA published that and Dice released tons of patches and maps for that for free, sure they had expansions but at least they were worth buying, not like booster packs

[BFsamchoc]

OMG guys come on... this is ridiculous!
This thread is about BF2142 not about how old you are and how dumb you are!

I don't mind having to pay 10$ for the booster pack since they worked on this and anybody that works on something needs to get paid. I am not going to complaint about the boosterpack since it is not even out yet and nobody played it. :)

Can't wait to try it tho! :)

Kill ya later

Sam

[xXSniper1432Xx]

in my opinion if your older than 13 and still playing video games your imature like me;) SO WHO GIVES A SH!T!!!!!!!

[Adsy]

Guys please remain calm, for all those who aren't getting the pack, stick by your guns, those who are stick by your guns. we've got no need to hate each other over a computer game.

I will be getting the pack, i like the BF series and i want to enjoy it as much as i can. If you don't see that way so be it, no-one is forcing you to get it and you don't have to. But please stop moaning about it, its getting everyone's back up and no-one wants that. If you need to rant please take a (non biased as in "i am a noob, i am getting it") poll first to find out who you are going to effect. And then when you are ranting look on both sides of the story at some point that way you might make it look like a persuasive argument and not a fight.

Oh and yes, if people are getting on at you because of your grammar there is a solution: Right click on the message box and select spell check this field. it won't however ignore 733t so ignore it.

No please no more aggravated abuse otherwise we're gonna need a post lock and vault it because its gone out of control.

[The_Eliminator]

This little boy made me laugh :P

[Elinombrable]

and your saying EA doesnt have money? look at 1942, EA published that and Dice released tons of patches and maps for that for free, sure they had expansions but at least they were worth buying, not like booster packs

1942 didnt have global stats,unlocks, global database....it was like any other multiplayer game on that years...

[Kalo]

Dont like EA? Blaming EA for your lively problems? Then stop coming to a forum ABOUT 2142!

[The_Eliminator]

Its About BF2142, not EA exclusively.

[Kalo]

They keep bitching about the rest of the series too -.-.

[Dagizmo]

interesting...are you sure you are 18 yo?

Hey can you please calmn down and dont be judging people just because of their age

Returning to topic the booster dosent see bad maybe this time will get something fun and great

PS: excuse my bad english

[Parsaw]

Your 3 years older than me. Grow up buddy and realize that doesn't mean anything. Your not any more mature than me as much as you would like to think you have that quality. Your just more of a ***** and unwilling to actually admit the game is poor, which it is. Compare quality to a blizzard game and it isn't even close.


Hey uhh, earlier in this thread, you told that guy to use proper English, right? I think maybe you should take a look at yours as well. The first word of that post says "your", it should be "you're". Same with the first word in your second sentence, it should be "you're"

I'm sure I can find many more mistake if I examine your posts more closely.

So don't insult anyone else's grammar/spelling when you can't even use correct conjunctions.


[EDIT: You should also capitalize the word "Blizzard", considering it is a proper noun]

[Dextrous]

Sorry im just used to games that have QUALITY. Its clear none of you have played a blizzard game because the quality is about 100x better(without hyperbole). And those games are 50 bucks brand new with expansions that are actually worth getting. Maybe thats why they have the most popular online pay to play rpg ever?

I didnt play the others much but i have 1942 and my friends have BF2 and BF:V and they are all pretty much the same game. Ea is just rehashing an old product and ripping off thousands tbh.

At least the booster is only a rip of $10

[Iwantcable]

Mature/Immature fight ftw!!!! :yay:

Hey <Insert real word here>, earlier in this thread, you told that guy to use proper English, right? I think maybe you should take a look at yours as well. The first word of that post says "your", it should be "you're". Same with the first word in your second sentence, it should be "you're"<Insert puncuation here>

[EDIT: You should also capitalize the word "Blizzard", considering it is a proper noun]

This isn't a bloody dissertation.
The Spelling Police try-outs have a separate forum. You must be mistaken.

[Kalo]

Oh of course! WOW is such a quality game, full of "u noob" or "WaNn cybur?"

100% better quality...

[Dextrous]

This isnt english class bud. I don't have to punctuate all of my sentences. But at least my english can be read. He cant even speak the language. It is 2 different things. Now go write some poetry or something. I just expect to be able to actually understand wtf someone is saying. For him i couldn't. And yes i know the dumb english rules i choose not to waste time on them when i type 80 wpm on forums. I take english in UNIVERSITY. Kay?

[Dextrous]

At least people actually TALK in wow. In bf nobody says anything unless you flame them ingame. Basically its all the silent loner types it seems. Nobody has any conversation ingame. I can have conversation and still manage to rape at the same time. WoW has lots of serious players too. Hell one server of wow probably has more serious players than all of bf2142. Its no shock wow has 8 million subscriptions. The games are not even close in quality.... (and i DO NOT play wow... i rejected it)

Don't be a hypocrite! Kay?

[Kalo]

He cant even speak? that must be why hes talking to you racist ****.

If you cant do proper english dont ***** about someone else not doing it.

And also learn to edit, Whats the problem with people in BF? i dont talk in chat alot cause theres TOO MUCH Commo rose, and when i do its pretty funny.

[Dextrous]

Don't be a hypocrite! Kay?

Blow me kid. When you leave high school talk to me. Or ill just own you in game if you want to be owned a different way.

[Iwantcable]

Screw TV, I get good entertainment right here on these forums.

Do you even know what racist means? I won't even answer to this post because you are possibly even more stupid than the first guy to flame me. Which i didn't think was possible until now. I have not even mentioned race in ANY post. Get your head out of your ***.

[Parsaw]

Blow me kid. When you leave high school talk to me. Or ill just own you in game if you want to be owned a different way.

Kid? You're one year older than I am. I wouldn't call that "Kid". If you're so mature, then why are you resulting to petty insults? Like, they hurt man!:cry:

[fshy94]

Blow me kid. When you leave high school talk to me. Or ill just own you in game if you want to be owned a different way.

Now who's disciminating against age? :)

They said the revenue from the in game ads would fund development. Clearly this is a bastardly lie.

[Iwantcable]

They said the revenue from the in game ads would fund development <for the continuation of the Battlefield series>. Clearly this is a bastardly lie.

They didn't necessarily say 2142 :hmm:. But, 'tis EA now is it not?

[Kalo]

Blow me? and i thought i could be good at flaming! by the way, its a game, own only applies in the GAME it doesnt make you god, saying he cant speak english was pretty racist to me.

[Parsaw]

I wouldn't call him racist, just ignorant.

[Dextrous]

Do you know what RACE is? Do i need to quote websters for you to understand? thats called DISCRIMINATION. Your so dumb i think these CAPS help you understand. At 14 i dont think i was a retard but i guess where your from they drink toxic waste.

And yea Parsaw thats right im glad you didnt say yes since you probably suck at the game. But hey i guess your used to sucking...

[Iwantcable]

This thread is the best :D.

[fshy94]

Do yourself a favor. Stop posting. You only make yourself look stupid by going "I will pwnzor all you n00bs ingame! Mwahahahahahha!" If you're going to make an argument, ingame skill is irrelevant.

EDIT: I agree with Iwantcable above me ^^

Alright guys....let's keep things civil please.

[dranoz]

Here is an idea, dislike the game? Dont Play it, dislike EA? Dont Buy their games, Dont want to pay for the new booster pack? Dont get it

Wow simple logic to follow really

Yes.

And if the thing is really $10 and you're going miss that, best to stop spending so much time playing and get out there to mow some lawns/shovel some snow for a little scratch.

[Iwantcable]

Alright guys....let's keep things civil please.

NEVER! You are banished from this thread for the use of the word "civil".

[Kalo]

Nice flaming dextrous.

[fshy94]

O jeez, this thread makes me laugh. More than I've laughed in a while.

EDIT: I wonder what the BFROE people think of my new sig lol...

[Parsaw]

The fact i know how to fight gave me that ability. The fact that i can pretty much garuntee I will end up better educated that 90% of the posters(100% of those who flamed me) is related to my having a better IQ.


You know, using profanity, like you did in your previous posts doesn't make you look smart. It makes you look like you have a low vocabulary, and it also makes people think you're an idiot.

[Iwantcable]

The fact i know how to fight gave me that ability. The fact that i can pretty much garuntee I will end up better educated that 90% of the posters(100% of those who flamed me) is related to my having a better IQ.

[Tokyo Breakfast]

Im glad seeing as thats the only amusement your ever going to get. That and your hand. Zing!

You speak like a man with a lot of experience.

[TheMofficer]

This thread is a reason why we have video games, so we can shoot each other with virtual guns and let out all the built up anger from being a lost little child in the world called the internet. We dont need to flame, just play the game. If you dont like the game, go find another.

[fshy94]

Parsaw i like how you post every 10 minutes. Taking the time to check to make sure you have no grammar or spelling errors.:laugh: :laugh:

I also like how you recently fixed your grammar; it was laughable before. I think someone else is taking time nowadays :)

[Parsaw]

Parsaw i like how you post every 10 minutes. Taking the time to check to make sure you have no grammar or spelling errors.:laugh: :laugh:

I do aguee about most of this.
other then the titan city map part.
I aguee about the weapons in the booster pack being better then the ones we already have. I bet they will be, if not they will just suck.
2 titans is just going to cause lag. It's going to be lag city on any map with 2 of them. Beriln is the worst cont point and Camp G is not any better.
