Bah! BLUE FTW!
Listen, I'm no noob here, but I will tell you that I swear by my Baur.
The voss DOES tend to be a noob weapon in my opinion. I think that they should tone-down the accuracy of the gun a bit. The damage also needs to be reduced, too, but only by about 2-3 damage/shell. Why do I think that the accuracy and damage need to go down? Here's why: IT'S A GLORIFIED SMG FOR GOODNES'S SAKE! SMGS DO NOT HAVE THAT KIND OF POWER OR ACCURACY! I know it's called an assault rifle, but I'm going to keep calling it an SMG until you show me a few real assault rifles that have a 40 round clip and are about the size of your typical SMG. It shouldn't have a single shot mode either, in my opinion....
I don't like the voss. I can use it and waste with it, but it's too easy. It's the new g36e. Baur FTW.

In my opinion, all the clark RDX is is a really nerfed underbarrel GL that fires a sticky nade. You aim and fire it just the same. Even if you lay down on the projectile that it shoots, it will still only deal about 70 damage. That's the problem with it. The only redeeming factor of it is that it can shoot the nades a rather long distance.
It's good for lobbing explosives between titan vents, but that's about all.

I prefer the krylov over the Voss, and the Baur over both. The krylov is fun to use at times, though.
Well... there IS an area where you can redeem pre-bought codes in EA link, so that sounds feasible. It will probably go for about 15 or 20 bucks because of packaging (plus it nets them more cash) if it actually happens.Zukabazuka wrote:
That's where you are wrong. Northen Strike will be able to buy in store, but you will only get a code to type it in to EA link. I don't know about if there is a box coming with it or so but that would probably cost more for them so don't expect any. How do I know this? Easy, they told about in the Beta.DaBombadier wrote:
I think it's only gonna be on EA Link...........FOREVER!!!!!!!!
A word from the wise, though: Don't believe everything you read on the internet.
For movement purposes, yes. Keep in mind, though, that EMP also freezes the turrets in place, allowing people to run around it without getting shot at unless they run into a fire lane.
Well.... drop a personell shield and sentry gun if you can. It takes a few nades to kill a sentry, and the shield will block a few of the nades. Otherwise, just go cap a silo or two, then come back and see if they're bored of throwing grenades yet.
Nope, the titan is actually a vehicle model. Remember when you could still move the titan after the shields went down? Remember how people would shift around like [insert colorful language here] sometimes? It's just like, for example, if you were to stand on top of a bf2 vehicle (take an M1). You shift around. Same with the 2142 vehicles, too. The only difference is that the titan just moves extremely slowly (around 1m/s), so it's not as severe.imortal wrote:

Back on topic:
If the repair "pods" can be killed with normal bullets, then a clark-toting support soldier with EMP nades could take them out...
Add that to the fact that many servers have them disabled in the 1st place.Vilham wrote:

I think that high ranking AFK commanders are fun to play against. Easier to grab their tags.
I find it somewhat disappointing that they left out destructable bridges. I mean, c'mon! It's PRE-WRITTEN CODE!
Being that 2142 and bf2 use an EXTREMELY similar engine, there would be minimal/no required changes to the bridge code to make them destructible.

Snow is correct. When you are not online, try logging in. It will attempt to login for around 15-20 seconds, then a little box pops up and tells you that the game could not connect to the EA master server, and asks if you would like to play offline or if you would like to keep trying to connect.
It's happened to me a few times. I believe it has something to do with EA's "fixing" of the drone surfing "glitch" (BASTARDS! THAT WAS THE ONLY GLITCH THAT WAS ACTUALLY FUN AND DIDN'T GRANT AN UNFAIR ADVANTAGE! [/rant]). It usually helps for me (or seems to) if I'm crouching when I deploy the drone.
Oh, and by the way: before you go yelling at me that drone surfing granted an unfair advantage, I'll tell you why it didn't. So, why exactly didn't it? Because EA included in 2142 the ability to (*GASP!*) aim up.

Well... technically it IS his end of the system that's going FUBAR. So.... yeah. Don't rail on the game just because your connection isn't as good as you would like it to be. 2142 rocks.
And what does that have to do with someone ELSE'S stats?
Also, isn't there a forum rule somewhere about not making "2142 sucks! omg i am teh leet!" threads?

Man, someone should really tell EA about this. I see people every day with that hack!
"[2:04] <Riddick51PB> i've got a $7,000 computer by velocitymicro.com."
Wow. Why exactly did you pay that much for a computer again? Considering that it's probably only worth about 3k by now... and it probably only cost velocitymicro about 5k to build... ugh. Some people.........
"[2:03] <Riddick51PB> i have a $5,000 website by IMG. they designed NiP-Gaming.com's, complexityclan.com's, and Pandemic's websites."
Fail. Wait... we're not supposed to say that, are we? Oh well... I don't get the 5k on a website thing, either......
I can understand why they were a bit pissed off, 12 years old or not. You were being a bit arrogant there....

And by the way, for those of you that don't like not being able to hit long/med range targets with the SMG, that's what a guided missile is for. What? You complain about wasting rockets on infantry as opposed to tanks? That's what a suply box is for!
Well, I remember reading somewhere that senrty guns weren't supposed to see through smoke. Honestly, whether that was ever true or not, I think it should be like that. Say that the nade throws up chaff or something.. some reason to distract the sentries.
I have veteran for both.. for conquest, I would go on a 64 player gibraltar or verdun(where I got it) where there aren't many people on...
Titan mode is rather easy, any map should last long enough to get the badge. If required, help prolong the game.

I would think that it is pronounced "ra-pee-day"....
If I wasn't afraid of getting my own stats reset, I would hang out on k&p servers running people over in cars ALL day.
Yes, I have had little moments like this before. Quite funny when you realize what you're doing.
I would personally love to see a small (see: 5 bullets) clip upgrade for the Baur, to bring it up to a 25 round clip. A 30 round clip and you now have yourself a very overpowered gun, which EA will in turn nerf.
The silencer idea for the lambert sounds good, too.

whatWHAT! How about no? The assault class already has a pseudo-auto (as in, you can fire it really fast semi auto) shotgun unlock, it's called the herzog. A jackhammer for assault would be extremely broken. Extremely.Knochenmann_AUT wrote:
Assault unlock: No idea. Maybe a full auto shotgun like the jackhammer in BF2? The gadget: Assault needs to be more deadly against stationary targets, like the defenders in the titan. A attachment to fire arround corners?
Wait.. did anyone else notice that in the movie, they give the lambert the sound of a baur? And during the last part of it, the hachymoto (I think that's what it's called) actually catches on fire while they're riding down the mountain? Odd things to notice, but still..
Hrmm... those may not be aliens. Doesn't anyone remember CABAL?
For those who don't know, CABAL was nod's uber-AI, but it was so smart that it broke off from nod and started its own faction. CABAL's faction colors seemed to be Grey, Black, and an incandescent blue.
Then again, for those of you who played c&c Renegade, there was a big crashed alien spacecraft in the 2nd to last level. Once you get inside it, it looks really odd, and almost JUST like the pattern of those units in the SS.
There's also the mention of alien ships in Tiberian Sun, too...
Oh well, it's probably Aliens, because I think I remember them being mentioned somewhere in the c&c 3 fluff, but just throwing the idea out there.

That's the exact point that I was making in my earlier post. Heavy armor is much better IMO.Elamdri wrote:
I dunno. I can't speak for others, but I have lost count of the the number of times I've walked away from a firefight with less than 5 health. Without that armor, I would have lost those fights.
I started out w/ two (vet's prgm and pre-order) and I unlocked the Defib. and Herzog. Technically, I unlocked the Defib. about 3 seconds before the Herzog, though

I say that because with the sprint upgrades, you can run just fine, and that little extra bit of health has kept me alive/gotten me a few extra kills more times than I can count.
And really Nyte, I believe your posting could reliably be labeled spam.

I got my titan destructor gold within.. probably 5 days of getting the game. Good for me, but that's not the point I'm trying to make.
If the titan shields could be repaired, then the match could theoretically last FOREVER. One missile does 2 damage to the titan, so... repair 10% of the titan (technically, once the shields go down, the titan is at 50 health. Every missile decreases the titan's original HP of 100 by 2.) If one could repair the shield by 10% in one minute (or at all...), well, the missiles take 2 minutes to launch.... that means that the enemy would have to hold the ENTIRE map, JUST to keep your shields down and null the work of ONE engineer. Even in that case, the missiles would have to hit in extremely close succession to bring the shields down for even a short amount of time. Keep in mind that I am only accounting for ONE engineer repairing. If one engineer can keep the entire enemy team busy pretty much indefinitely, then we have some SERIOUS balance issues. Oh, and about the titan respawn idea, well, erm, let's just say that I'm not even going to go there.
Honestly though, Fail.
Not to be an arse or anything, but there IS spell check on these forums.... too bad there isn't a grammar check of some sort...

Go find a conquest server, it seems that most noobs tend to stay titan....... Then again I was playing on a conquest about an hour ago and our team didn't do ANY teamwork whatsoever. I was quite literally (aside from one of my friends in my squad, he did a little) the only one spotting things.
I've got a G7, and I have the side button set to cycle weapons. Once you get used to how many clicks it takes to select a certain weapon, I find it faster than scrolling.
Like.. a J-10!The story could be that the Chinese buried some cool technology below the ice (something that would help a world covered by ice) and both parties are trying to kill themselves over it, so they can be in control of the process.
Well, on my high end system (not on it now), you see many things you don't see with the normal one.
Example:
The Shuko has "nVision" written on the scope when zoomed, and also has some numbers on the left-hand side of the gun on what looks like an LCD screen. I forgot what they were though
There's an icon/picture that shows up on the baur, the voss, and the shuko, near the sights/clip, too.
one of the guns says "DICE Arms Co."
more to come
