Will we get the EU Ribbon finally?
Will we get the missing awards?
Will we get the Expert Armor badge time reduced?

1) No - The ribbons are awarded for playing in a theater, not as an army. There would have to be an invasion of Europe for there to be a European theater. This is the same reason the NA service ribbon is only available through AF.
2) I seriously doubt it - The laser designator and SF jets were removed from the game. The LCAC was removed too, so I'd imagine the boat related awards would be nigh impossible to get in a RIB. As for the NV badges and SF kit medals.....I'd imagine it's a bit late to add them in, though it would be nice.
3) I doubt that too.

Venom = hard to please

You just got a patch for a 4 year old game and 2 boosters free. Stop whinging and sit down.

Servers had damn well be throwing in AF and EF maps in their rotation now. Maybe I'll finally get the coveted Euro Force Medal.


Though methinks the few weeks after the initial excitement has died down, things will go back to the way they are now.

The MEC,PLA,AF ribbons are awarded if you play on the maps they are listing. Same would happen to EF as you should play on the 3 EF maps to earn that ribbon. It would be something new for the players who will play EF the first time as the boosters are free now!

Its true that they removed a lot of stuff, but the SF combat medals and the NV badge would be something they should add! We have 3 night maps where you use it. There are still people who buy the complete collection now as its cheaper then 4 years ago!

It would be good if they give some medals/ribbons to those who've bought booster packs earlier. Just because they weren't so popular when they cost money Also I've heard that 2142 1.51 patch will go soon after BF2 update, any info?

Indeed. 2142 has almost no pronespammers as pronespamming is ineffective.

It's not, but not because gameplay suck, but because of wrong attempt to switch battlefield franchise to future thematics, while Battlefield fans prefer XX century and modern warfare. Speaking of gameplay and balance, 2142 is way more superior than BF2, but as I already stated, I also prefer AK or M16 (generiс comparison) over some futuristic crap.

Hmmm,.. I think also 2142 in some vital aspects was a step back from BF2. For starters it lacked a third faction, which makes the game less "deep". BF2 even had a 4th faction added with EF and several other with SF. Other small steps back include, but are not limited to, 22th century APC's spontaneously combusting when in 10 centimeters of water and much less visually varried maps.

The one real innovative aspect of 2142 was Titan Mode, but that was already nerfed to death in 1.12. I've played the (unnerfed) demo and the most intense larger frame strategical started when both Titans had their shields down. Titans were seldom effectively used by commanders, if moved at all, but when one of the shields was down they would often play cat and mouse and when both the shields were down Titans would broadside with droppods. After the patch Titans could no longer move without shields, because it caused too much unresolvable lag. IMO that is really poor game design. Also nerfing the droppods didn't help either.

The sole reason why BF2142 sucks, is because there are no lasers weapons in the game.
Also, in the future there are supposed to be aliens.
And aliens shot with lasers.
First.

Will there be a different patch for those who already have AF and EF? I hate to think I was spending all that time downloading something that mostly includes stuff I have already.
