New game mode (Titan)
New unlocks
New vehicles/weapons/etc.
Field upgrades stuff to promote people to form squads

Dislikes:
Players goes wobbly or shaky when in the titan or near the walls of the inside of the titan
Commander toys on the ground looks weird
Grenades won't bounce off walls
Grenades isn't thrown so far
Weird camera positions when dead inside Titan
Dead bodies sliding all over the place in the Titan
Progress bar on the main screen is a bit messed up

Turning off camera shake in the options should fix that (i'm sure your computer will thank you for not vomiting on it).

<3's: Just about everything

No <3's: The inability of EA/DICE to produce a game and get it right first time... or maybe second, at least.

I hope this is some sort of market research... 2142 stats... website...

in English, bf2142 will have spy-ware (stuff that tracks your internet behaviour) so you can get "useful ads" in-game.

I like it.
3 Favs:
-good points system
-very good hit registration
-game is balanced well so far

Least favs:
-Amount of lag
-Not enough vehicles on many conquest maps (infantry only is getting annoying after a while)
-Too short delay between orbital strikes in conquest (it doesn't really kill you, but it creates lag, and you are getting tired of it's sound)

But I think that the game is good overall

I love realism so I usually stay away from futuristic games but this is not too bad.

I quite like the titan mode, it's a lot more fun than conquest even though it can be a bit messy inside the titans. It's really hard to see if one is friend or enemy at close range cos the name tags are so high above the head and uniforms don't differ much. Suddenly someone runs by me without shooting so I think "wtf who? ahh friendly" and then *bang* he'd put explosives at my feet Still fun though.

I wish they could bring back some old classic guns like a G3 or something, that would be nice. I hate how the biggest chunkiest sniper rifle ever is bolt action lol. The main reason for a sniper not to choose a semi automatic rifle is that a bolt action is usually lighter since it doesn't have the same feed mechanism so why would anyone choose the standard rifle in this game but yes it's just game... Otherwise the guns are quite OK, it's nice to see a few weapon designs that have been inspired real guns like G36, MP7, etc... oh and I hate eu's pistol. A revolver

Big plus is much faster loading times than BF2 and not near as much lag in the beginning of new maps.

Seems to be some problems with the stats... again. Didn't they learn from BF2?! Only points and unlocks are updating. No pins, ribbons, etc. and no stats in all those diagrams.


That's about what I can think of for now.

Seen a few other bugs which I hope will be taken care of, does anyone know what the first patch fixed?

Like: It got the spit shine it needed since the beta. New awards are a nice refreshing hook.
Dislike: The ever-present "battlefield dance" on any surface still exists and drives me NUTS on the titans. The plane/chopper monstrosities are aweful.

Overall, I'll hit up a game once in a while, but I'm probably going to stick with BF2 more often than not. I just think that in 150ish years, we ought to have some f'ing lasers (if not with dolphins).
new awards ?

Played last pm for the first time. Like it but don't love it. Still need more time to make my list. Love the hover tank though. Makes me queezy!

Sniper scope acts up at times (I will right click for scope, and sometimes, it will zoom in, then out really quick, then in again...that's very annoying.)
I get that in BF2 too, pain up the ass bug.

EA hit a home run!  I had no lag . . . none, zip, zilch, nada.  Not one CTD, no red bug, no squad bug . . . no problems at all.  And the combat was 10 times more intense than BF2 on the 64 player server I was on.  The EAX sound puts you right there where the bullets are flying. Field upgrades are sweet and allow you to try out the unlocks so you know what to pick when you rank up.  And no logging out to pick your unlock.  You can pick it right away in game as you rank up!  Bravo EA!

LIKES:
Infantry, (compared to BF2) the maps, hovertanks, jeep boost, and titan mode.


DISLIKES:
The stat system, (you have to have points for unlocks or your toast) lack of vehicles, and horrible air combat.

I still didnt played 2142 and i wont buy it in the upcomming future.I only watched a few in-game trailers and i think that UT 2K4 can do nearly the same.Why do i say this ?

I think that after 1 year of bf2 players still like to play it and enjoying the "todays" army and vehicles.There are players who have fun,chill with friends..so not hardcore playing and statspadding like "Cool i finished bf2 and i reached the highes rank and i got all medals"
So i will still sticking with bf2 and maybe....maybe or prolly i buy 2142...but not now..in 1-2 years maybe.
For the ones who will start to play it i say...have fun and plz play some bf2 also so dont uninstall it

And as some of you guys said.....just a mod of bf2....I say just another "Booster Pack" lol

False They will ad ads in the game, the only reason they do those cookies is to locate you in wich country you live in, for example if you live in France your ads will be france.

You don't see Formel F1 drivers complaining about the ads or the hockeyplayers and fotballplayers. Do you think they bother the player, no.

This expresses one of my big dislikes ... I have to pay for it.  But here's my list:

Dislikes
(1)  Questionable Value.  I have to pay for a game that I'm not sure is worth the money, and the demo did nothing to convince me that the game is worthwhile.  Plus, from what I'm seeing on these forums, once I use it then I cannot resell it if I'm disappointed with it .... spyware ... disabling Windows security features?   This is horrible engineering.  At this point, I'm going to see if this is another EF unless I got the game as a gift (maybe spawnofthemist will give me one of his licenses  ). 
(2)  Unrealistic gun inaccuracy.  The guns of the future are horribly innacurate.  Bullets were coming out of the gun at 5 degree angles?  In the future, I would expect all guns to have aimbots, yet there is no accuracy improvement in the guns since BF1942... even the sniper rifle seems like it is drunk.  This inaccuracy takes me out of the fantasy of "being in the game" because it becomes unbelievable.
(3)  A walker that can't do its job.  The mech walker can't get over 1-2 foot obstacles ... isn't that the point of a walker?????????????

Likes
(1)  Titan mode
(2)  The flexibility with the custom kits and unlocks ... that is absolutely the best!
(3)  The hover tank is wicked cool.

well my opinion about this game is that its OK, but it just misses the action from BF2 vanilla the vehicles all steer like whales so slow and the guns are way too inaccurate when i played the demo it felt wrong like if something was missing, that feeling when everything went so smooth in bf2 unlike in b2142 he runs pretty weird and the walker is way overpowered and well too many bad things, i guess it was just a big hype and EA screwed up now i wish they had just sticked to normal bf2 and made it better instead of launching a new bf2 while regular was still being patched and stuff, too bad EA it looks like a lot of people will return to regular bf2 and play that.   *puts bf2 CD in*

my 2 cents

Have not played it, don't intend to.  I don't like futuristic games.  I'm looking into ArmA though.

Like:
1: Mechs
2: unlock idea
3: neat squad leader stuffs

Dislikes:
1: Spyware
2: Security vulnerability
3: Dying and going underground or under the titan
4: Sorry but the accent the game has when it talks to me.

If EA had not tried to play maker and grab all the cash they could it would be so much better.  Now I have to research a port blocker (looking at EMSA Port Blocker I think this will do what I need)  so I can see if anything erroneous is being sent from my PC and be able to STOP it(spyware).  Oh and if you scan 2142 for spyware you will not find anything because it is not a known spyware.

I've played the demo.

I like the newness.
Titan mode is cool, same feeling about the uniforms being a little hard to tell apart.
the expanded kit choices are cool.

All in all, kinda not that excited.

-Stabbing people nets your their dogtags... (I forgot my kit even had a gun when I did that)
-A clean headshot with a sniper rifle is a one hit kill...
-The air vehicles are not overpowering. No more crybabies complaining about air jockeys ripping them a new ass on the ground.
-The sounds and graphics are awesome
-The menu interface is very nice once you get the hang of the multiple layered system.

dislike
-the new helicopter/jet abomination takes a bit of getting used to. Cannot kill jack shit in it because the throttle on it is very touchy.
-the machine gun and the assault rifle are the noob spray weapons of choice.
-cqc with another player results in glitches, and a bunny hop crouch game of cat n mouse.
-knife animation is a bit misleading when trying to kill another player with it.
-the tv missle system has some mean lag on it.
