Battlefield 2: BF 2142 Demo is out

By: Travis Harshaw - Published October 07, 2006 at 3:32 AM EDT - Writer Archive
The year is 2142, and the dawn of a new Ice age has thrown the world into a panic.



News taken from www.electronicarts.com

In Battlefield 2142, players choose to fight for one of two military superpowers - the European Union or the newly formed Pan Asian Coalition -in an epic battle for survival.

Armed with a devastating arsenal of hi-tech weaponry, including assault rifles, cloaking devices and sentry guns, players will also take control of the most lethal vehicles known to man. Massive battle Walkers wage fierce combat on the ground, while futuristic aircraft rule the skies. When taking on this futuristic armor players will need to use their wits and an arsenal of new hi-tech countermeasures like EMP grenades and smart mines to level the playing field.

Epic online gameplay for up to 64 players drops gamers on the front lines as part of a formal squad, or behind the scenes in Commander Mode to direct the strategic assaults of their team-mates.

For the first time in the history of the franchise, Battlefield 2142 will include a brand new game type to complement the classic conquest game. The epic, new Titan mode challenges gamers to destroy the opposing army’s Titan - a massive, heavily armoured, flying warship - while defending their own. To defeat a Titan, gamers must first take down its shields, board the craft and fight to its inner core before detonating it from the inside. This genre leading gameplay innovation changes the way you play, encouraging both teamplay and strategy in explosive large-scale confrontations.

With in-game success, players increase their rank and unlock awards, including new weapons, medals and more, delivering the most comprehensive and flexible persistence in the Battlefield universe to date.

#6 I got a d3dx9_29.dll error every time I launched the demo, so Ijust googled d3dx9_29.dll and found www.dll-files.com and downloaded the dll from them, put it in windows/system, and it fixed my problem. The demo is pretty fun even though it is a reskin of the bf2.

and then we'll have 2 horridly patched and supported games...

Well, if ur gonna say it is horrible, at least state why.
