2142 Beta Update and Highway Tampa Now Out

The future Highway Tampa is here! Download the 2142 version of the newest Battlefield map brought to you by Intel and EA DICE then jump into the 1.4 beta. Featuring Titan and Dual Assault Lines this map focuses on classic Battlefield vehicle warfare with a futuristic twist. In Dual Assault lines each team can capture the enemies’ home base by controlling all of the neutral points. Whether you choose to skillfully coordinate your mechanized assault or dominate through overwhelming force Highway Tampa is the newest home of all out warfare.

The Battlefield 2142 1.4 beta update includes the following changes:

- Fixed an exploit that would allow commanders to call Orbital and EMP strikes before it had fully recharged.
- The Clark RDX Shotgun can now detonate other nearby explosives.
- EU Assault Rifle recoil and deviation have been slightly reduced.
- Bianchi and Shuko LMGs recoil reduced.
- Clark Shotgun rate of fire increased.
- Added an autosave to kit customisations. After you customise a kit and spawn in with that kit, the customisation will be automatically saved until you change it and spawn in again. Note that you must spawn in with a particular kit for it to be saved.

This came from the site: Here

Hope nobody beat me officially to the punchline. Anyways guys, cheers!!!

Interesting indeed.

Both LMG's, the SCAR and the Clark are getting a boost.

The Clark RDX Shotgun can now detonate other nearby explosives

Removing motion mines, RDX, APM's? This will actually make it rather useful.
It's oh so pointless at the moment.

The SCAR is already the most well rounded weapon, what more do you want? I just used it in the game, and it is now deadly accurate. Very close to the Krylov now.

I wonder how close you have to be. I mean, if you are just a few feet away from a mine or RDX, would it explode in your face or "poof" disappear?

I think Highway Tampa was what caused the problem in BF2. I am very hesitant to download this patch till it is tried and confirmed to be working, can anyone confirm that?
