What platform is this game on? PC?
Edit: Nevermind, bit of a stupid question considering it's the PC and MAc Chat chat section. :$

My PC would probably blow up if I tried to d/l it. Hopefully it'll be on PCG's disc's next month :)
How long did the demo take to download? I could play later on my bro's PC when he goes to work :)

lol i downloaded at 20kbs all dayyesterday its about 1.3gb but it was some crappy server hosting it.
the game is amzing if your pccan run it by it the onlyreason im here is because it crashed mypc, its buggy.
ok this is battlefield back to its best and were it belongs the pc,
each team hasa massive mover ship called a titan your objective is to blow the titan up and this is reallyfun.
you got the battlefield part the end battle is the battle on the titan.
so on the battlefield you got to capture the missile silos, the more you got the quicker you know the enamy titans shields off and then you can nboard and destroy the core, you get tanks, apcs, jeeps and mechs. in the air so far ive flowen 2 hover planes their likea cross between a chooper and a jet, oh yeah and they flyvery nicly you can do sweeping fly overs or line up and hover over your target.
and its out on the 20th im ordering it now as its super great online

^ they could port it easy it could control well on controller for instance the tanks and planes would control better.
the thing is that they release a very crap version of bf2 on the 360.

Well, I've played the demo. To be honest, the map showcased is pretty uninteresting, and there really isn't any improvement as far as graphics or gameplay are concerned over Battlefield 2, which to be honest... doesn't look that fantastic any more. Even the in-game interface is more or less identical.
The soldier classes have been condensed since BF2. That's not necessarily a bad thing given the generally superfluous amount of classes in BF2, but it seems pretty nonsensical to have the assault trooper with the medical equipment, for example.
The new Titan mode is also not particularly great from what I've witnessed. From the games I participated in, the combat seemed very confused as sporadic in these games, like either side didn't quite know what they were doing.
With any luck, the single player AI will be overhauled from the dire AI in BF2... but I'm doubtful.

I noticed... since it plays when you first run the program. Still doesn't stop the Titan mode being lame, though.
The walkers are pretty sucky, too. What's up with the dopey way they fall over when you kill them? :P

I didn't know I owned a screw and a hit, but cool.
What I'm getting at, if I didn't make it clear enough the first time round, is that the actual way in which the walkers collapse is a little bit silly. From what I've seen, they don't so much fall over as sort of... float gently to the floor.

Yeah- despite the vehicles looking slightly better, and the guns looking slightly more detailed, the graphics really aren't anything particularly special. In my opinion, BF2 and BF2142 both look inferior to anything using the Source engine- which in itself has been knocking about for a fair while now.
