Booooooooooooooo! BETA SHUT DOWN

looks like they pulled the plug! boooooooooo they could have done a demo like 2142 where the servers kept running so much longer even after release (YES I KNOW THIS IS A BETA)! i was playing the demo after Dr Nick put me onto it and this was a good few weeks or months after the release, i guess they will do this but now a week until release....Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. ive got next friday off, so its gunna be a big weekend, except for the cranky mrs!

just shout ya mrs a weekend away to get pampered im sure she wont mind

Bugger, KP's right. "Failed to connect to EA online". Goodbye beta.

Well that was great while it lasted. Im drooling over the new maps. Had a good look at them the other day.

Only a week to go! Did I mention JKS is recruiting decent good team players for BC2????


Sign up now! Get in on the ground floor of something BIG!

I played right to the last moment...

Certainly looking forward to next friday morning when the disk arrives as I too have the day off

Going to have to hammer in to it and unlock some goodies as quickly as possible too.

At least we have had a chance to get used to it and aren't going to spend the 1st few days screwing things up when it arrives.

And the friends list should work. I may even buy a mic yet due to the lack of com rose.

Seen these!

didnt get to play the beta but watching those vids i wish i had, come on 2nd of march!!

yes you should, them maybe you can actually hear us talking to you

"What we know about it scares the shit out of us. What we don't know scares us a lot fucking more!"

Classic line! Is thatr original or from a movie or something?
When did shit and fuck become acceptable in advertising? Not complaining, just surprised. The setting and the way it is said is not offensive at all.

How are some of these server mods with delicate sensitivities going to ban people for bad language when its all over the game?

Heh, poor old WCK won't be able to play. They're so totally puritan.
I'm still banned there on every server for using the name hairymofo even though i apologised and offered to use a different name.

On another note, I am struggling to get back into 2142.

That month on bc2 rush has me hooked. The action is so fast and furious.
The graphics are reasonable, sounds bloody good. I want more, now!

Friday mrning next week, 7 am, MA's store delivers (5am to you east coast aussies) and i will load and play till i fall asleep at the k/board. Then my son will shove me out of the way and take over.

You were abit rusty with the defib tonite....

zoomie knife = 4
Mofo defib = 0

Stay rusty, works well for me

bf2 ftw

A touch rusty though quite a few got the shock.

I'm finding it really hard to get back into now though.

I want a 2143! with updated sounds, engine, gfx with more players and furious action.

We don't need a BF3 Dice....

Second that

2143 sounds great, maybe add a third titan

Three teams of 10 against each other would spice things up.

or each team has 2 titains and the commander decides which silos fire at which ones. That would make it interesting

or what about 256 players per map(like mag for ps3, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MAG_%28video_game%29) titan 10 times the size with 10 consoles and 2 reactors. what about a speeder bike like return of the jedi.

now ya talk'n

aslong as the dead bodies dont vanish. It would be great crawling over
a pile of 50 corpses blocking the entrance to the core.

PC version would be something im sure alot of us would be interested in!!!!!

just imagine the coding that would be needed to make that stuff happen
