Customer Reviews
Great game but NS activation code is missing!
I'm playing this game since
it came out it's just great, I bought it to play northern strike booster
pack since I didn't bought it through EA Link software.
NOTICE:
theres a major issue with this release, no one that has bought
Battlefield 2142 Deluxe has been able to play northern strike booster
pack because activation code is missing. I were in contact with EA
Support and forums as well a week ago, it's seems no resolution yet for
issue. It's EA fault as usual.
Please be aware that you can play
Battlefield 2142 original maps except NS booster pack maps.
EDIT:
EA told me that I can activate Northern Strike booster pack by using
Battlefield 2142 CD Key which it available on the back of manual, and
it's work for me.
One of the best
Future-based Multiplayer First Person Shooters
This is simply a fantastic
game. I've played BF2, but I love BF2142. An extremely active gaming
community exists centered around this game. The graphics are not
bleeding edge like those in Crysis, but that just means that you'll be
able to play it on a reasonably current computer (even laptops). The
true squad based team play is the best I've experienced to date. The
game is played through four (3) different game types: Conquest Mode,
Titan Mode, Assault Lines Mode. The Titan Mode is truly a new experience
as not only is there a "capture the flag" (in this case missile silos)
type model, but it also incorporates an alternate method for defeating
the enemy faction by assaulting and boarding the enemy Titan and
destroying from the inside by detonating the Reactor Core.
The
gaming community that I've found to be the best is called
"Texas...Teamplayers..." This is an extremely active community site that
hosts several online games, of which BF2142 is one. The site also host
multiple gaming clans. If you decide to purchase this game (and I
strongly recommend that you do if online shooters are your thing) check
out "Texas...Teamplayers..." at http://www.texasteamplayers.com. As I
said, this is probably the best Gaming community site out there when it
comes to Battlefield 2142, Battlefield 2, Team Fortress 2, Counter
Strike: Source, Arm A, Call of Duty 4, Day of Defeat: Source, and the
Battlefield 2: Project Reality modification. All game servers are ranked
and many of the games also have practice servers available for trying
out new strategies and tactics.
Great
Game BUT.....................................
Buyer Beware!!!
This
deluxe edition claims to have the booster pack Northern Strike as well
but either this is not the case or EA has some serious problems here.
Just search the internet and you will find numerous threads on this
issue with the game deluxe edition.
In short, the game installs
fine claiming that you are getting both the orginal version as well as
the booster pack. However, once you are done activating and registering
your account you can ONLY play the orginal BF2142 maps with no issues.
But once you try to access any of the Northern Strike booster pack maps
the game acts like you dont have the booster pack installed and directs
you to EA link to purchase it even though the deluxe edition should have
installed the booster pack already. I have sent lots of emails to EA
but all i am getting are useless automated or cut & paste responses.
As of now there is no real resolution to this issue. If EA helps me out
I will update my post otherwise think before buying.
Other than
that an awesome game. The titan mode is the real winner here. I have
been involved in some serious fights around and inside the Titan for
supermacy. You have 14 maps of intense battles and the game rewards the
players who played the most with more effective weapons as well as armor
unlocks and a persistent talent system. I will however, seriously
recommend all newbies(until you have unlocked some weps and armor too)
to stick with armored vehicles and only try to engage one-on-one if you
have the advantage or are in a group. Otherwise you will be relentlessly
farmed by players who have uber weapons than you for a very long time.
