A Battlefield 2 players review of Battlefield 2142

I was lucky enough to secure a invitational beta test from EA very early on in the Battlefield 2142's development. Some might say "unlucky enough" but I remained confident throughout the beta testing phase that the games complications would be ironed out in due course. EA/Dice have indeed had a rough ride from the Battlefield 2 community throughout due to Battlefield 2's chequered history, so scepticism regarding Battlefield 2142 was rife with a fair proportion of the community stating "Its simply a mod of Battlefield 2". Indeed Battlefield 2142 does share the same engine as Battlefield 2 although changes and optimisations have been made for improved performance and in game effects which I will elaborate on later in this review. Although Battlefield 2142 is a stand alone game and not a mod of Battlefield 2, comparisons will and are inevitably made as both games share the same engine (albeit optimised for Battlefield 2142 in various aspects) although the reader of this article must bear in mind this is NOT Battlefield 2 and most certainly doesn't play like Battlefield 2.

Gimme game modes! Excluding the blatantly obvious differences between Battlefield 2 and Battlefield 2142 such as the futuristic setting, Battlefield 2142 offers the same Conquest mode familiar with the Battlefield 2 community in which players must secure as many flags as possible, or control more than half the flags on the map to slowly deplete the enemy's tickets to secure a win. Along with Conquest is now a mode called Titan. Titans are considered the motherships of each team and if your team is successful in destroying the enemy's Titan, you are granted the win. Destroying the Titans themselves consists of capping ground based silos. Each time a silo is capped a missile is launched at the enemy's Titan. That same silo will launch missiles intermittently to deplete the enemy Titan's shield, unless the silo is re-captured by the enemy. Once the enemy Titan's shield is disabled from the continual barrage of missiles, the teams have a choice of to continue capping silo's until the Titan is completely destroyed or go for an early kill by boarding the Titan. Players can board the enemy Titan by pod or other means such as flying transport. Once you are within the Titan, your task is to reach the reactor room. Before you can successfully reach the reactor room you must disable FOUR consoles that lower internal force fields one by one, thus allowing you access to the next console respectively. Once all consoles are destroyed the Reactor Room door blows and allows entry to destroy the Reactor. Destroying the reactor can be achieved by weapon fire or explosives to secure a win.

The second tour of Bad Company includes Sarge, Marlowe, Sweetwater and Haggard located in a snow covered valley. This is supposed to be Sarge's last tour of duty. The amazing scenery including snow capped mountains, frozen rivers and snow laden trees provide eerie acoustics for every footfall and gunshot. Words carry on the cold wind as the troops infiltrate a small village and escape into the Bolivian jungle. Mosquitoes whine in your ears making you want to swat them away. The realism of Battlefield: Bad Company 2 Xbox 360 will suck you in completely.

Of course gamers aren't playing Bad Company 2 to enjoy the scenery, they want to shoot, and blow things up. Not to worry, trees, barricades, vehicles, building, and bridges splinter, crack and break as you shoot them or use explosives. But while it is fun to be this destructive, in Battlefield Bad Company 2 for Xbox 360 destruction is part of your survival.

The destruction can also backfire on you when you shoot someone through a window and the panes of glass shatter and fall just to leave you exposed through an open hole so that your enemies can shoot you.

Most seasoned PC gamers would not always expect every game to grant them at least 60 frames per second when set at its maximum settings in 1920 x 1200 resolution. But the thing is, if even the most expensive dual card setups still struggle to run Crysis at its highest setting, then clearly there must be something wrong here. So what Crysis tips are available to our struggling gamers? There are a few and a list is found below.

1. Renew your expectations

There are people who run on an Intel quad-core @ 3.2 GHz with 2GB of RAM but despite that great set up, these people are only able to run Crysis at a consistent 60 frames per second when they use the "low" graphics setting. So don't expect these Crysis tips to make an incredible change, but do remember that even a minor improvement of about 3-5 frames per second can make the game feel a whole lot smoother.
