LEts not talk about boosters here. Just tell us about a vehicle of your dreams that you wanted to se in 2142.:rolleyes:
All I need in 2142 is fighters and bombers on big 5 maps, where the TITAN mode is. These maps are big, like ZATAR WETLANDS and GULF OF OMAN from BF2, so planes of 22 century would be awesome. And besides - thats why my nick is "SkyRaptor" - I use to be a predator in the skies. But Doragon and Talon are only gunships..:cry: :cry: :cry: - no ace combat dogfights and bombing

Mobile anti-aircraft. Like they had in BF2.

The guns on top of the tanks and the walkers are just not powerful enough, and don't fire fast enough. A flak-type AA gun would be better too. Unless your aim is perfect, 90% of your shots just sail by the stupid gunships.

YEs, I would also like to see that vehicle in the game.

- Heavy Transport Truck slotted between the FAV and APC; carries 1 squad
- One-man motorcycle or trike
- One-man jet-pack or glider
- One-man speedy walker

I'd also add something like the Goliath, but they have that covered.

Oh yea, and a pretty fragile radar jammer vehicle that killed sat scan, UAV, Otus, and Pulse scanner sensors within a certain radius.

I'd also like to see some jets in the game, but I think that DICE would have a hard time keeping them balanced with the rest of the game.

It wouldn't be hard. They just need to keep a good balance and separation between the air battles and the ground battles.

As a simplified example, the fighters jets in Desert Combat only had A2A missiles, and you had to fly a bomber/attack plane to really terrorize ground troops.

I'd like to see a few walker variants. Perhaps a heavy walker, slow, lots of firepower and armor. Smaller walkers, faster, lower firepower and armor, perhaps even cloaking capability.

I don't think a bomb toting jet in 2142 would be as dangerous as in BF2. Here we have EMPs and AA pulse guns to take them out.

I too would like to see a heavier truck. the Hummvee and the Gaz were good trucks and transported 4 guys; they were really great squad vehicles.

In 2142 there isn't much room for new vehicles since they merged many from BF2. Like the walkers are part LAV, part bradley linebacker; the APC is also part LAV but with an added machine gun and EMP launcher; and the gunships are part helicopter, part fighter.

There's really no niche for a new vehicle unless it was a truck with an anti-armor weapon.

exoskeletons or light mechs.

Commander droppable field guns.

Nuke Cannon (think CC Generals)
Bring back the Navy!!!
Fighter jet and massive bomber (think bf1942)
Some type of mobile artillery

Hell, lets just make more walkers! I want a modern Mechwarrior game too!

I'd say some submarines for mobile spawn points... this could be kind of cool on a map that takes place on a body of frozen water, and the sub drivers could make their way to holes in the ice to drop off their troops all over the map.

give them torpedoes in case they spot an enemy sub, and put a couple fixed LMGs on the outside so crew can man them and give covering fire while everybody piled out in case that hole in the ice was being camped.

Best of all, there'd be no ramming with this one to take out tanks and walkers. ;)

I decided to look at the tiberium sun vehicles to see how Westwood (now a part of EA and therefore EA owns all the C&C vehicles) did the whole mech thing. I think two vehicles that would be cool to have here would be the Wolvernine Heavy infantry mech and the hover MLRS (Mult-Launch Rocket System). While the MLRS is as its name applies, the wolverine was just a humvee with two legs. It was armed with just dual machine guns. Actually, now that I thnk about it, the original concept mech (shown in C&C 1) had a laser and machine gun.

I would say two different walkers instead of the one we have now. A light walker which can sprint and jump but has weak AV weapons and a moderate AI weapon that overheats at the rate they do now, and a heavy walker with no sprint ability but with heavier AV weapons and a weaker AI weapon that overheats slower.

mobile artillery, (like can shoot across the freaking map artillery) that is targeted and shot through the tactical map, (so it will need spotters) has 3 second reload, is pretty dang fast, can take NO punishment, and has sensor dampening electronics.

some form of mobile radar suppression truck, (that can also send out UAV scans)

dedicated AA missle launcher, SAM site on treads

some form of dedicated ground attack vehicle, like a helicopter, not as fast at helojet, but can dish out serious hurt to ground targets. (attack chopper? no defence against other air craft and extremely vulnerable to AA guns)

aaaaaand...possibly some form of light attack vehicle, has an automatic 20mm cannon, 2 missle tubes for AV, plus a LMG mounted next to the main gun, think the M2A2.

Do you really think that the retards at dice can actually program something like that??? :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

A huge titan. One with loads of multiple floors, and corridors and weapon control panels and stuff, and more than 4 entry points.

Motorcycle, to leap off rocks and go really fast on :p.

Jets and anti air vehicles like bf2 has..... and of course boats but lets get some jets and AA first

a 5 man heavy bomber that drops mini-nukes, and has 3 gun turrets and one SAAW turret.

now that would be ace... though it would be hammered by EMP missiles on a regular basis :P

Destroyer class mini-titans mounted with battleship style cannons able to damaged Titan shields and hulls.

Enter fleet battle mode.

That would make me :D

Jets wouldn't really work too well with the emp from AA, you couldn't really fly fast and low as the moment you get hit by emp your in the dirt

id add a gummie j10 that can bounce all aa off its body and just rape the spawn points relentlessly, it would make 2142 feel more like home.....

1. field guns that are deployable by commander or squad leader, imagine a .50 caliber machine gun as a deployable commander asset!!
2. Navy ships and a map that allows for comined ground/sea warfare, maybe even submarines.
3. Mobil AA vehicles..... desperately needed......
4. The A-Team Van!
5. Airwolf!
6. Tesla Tanks (for all you CC players)

Knife kills 'n road kills in one tidy package!

Or... someone mentioned mobile artillery... and someone else mentioned heavy walkers...
Why not both?

Nothing, nowt, nada, zilch. BF game in finely balanced shocker.

If forced at red hot poker point though, I'd say more light vehicles. But you'd have to make up for it by giving the Ganz AP rounds that could penetrate the soft skin.

In fact, that Ganz should have AP ammo anyway...

Maybe a weapons platform which you could change which weapons it had, e.g. AA cannons for gunship hunting or artillery for far away bombardment.

Eh? Salt water freezes, why would you think that it doesn't?

Depending on the type and concentration of salt, the actual temperature at which it freezes will be different, but salt water always freezes at a lower temperature than that of freshwater. But it DOES, in fact, freeze.

I've never had a strong desire for new vehicles. But if I had to add something in, I think a "light-walker" would be cool. Its weapon load-out would be relatively modest, as would its armor, but it would be smaller and more agile than its big brother (jumping and strafing might be cool). Still, they did such a good job balancing 2142 I wouldn't want to take any risks.
