Shouldnt be all that more than BF2 i would think anyway, as far as i know its an update of the engine with luck it could even be less or the same as BF2.

Just played the BF2142 beta for the first time and I played it on exactly the same specs as my BF2 (half medium, half high at 1024x768) and it ran exactly the same. The only problem I had was that I could only connect to European servers, strange.

Where do i get this Beta.

[BlackPandemic]

FilePlanet sent me an email saying subscribe now to get access to the beta! They had a beta open then they closed it due to lack of keys. So you can check man but they might be gone already

Keep a weathered eye out!

The only problem I have is that I can only get into European servers. If I try to connect to an American it says "Please join a server with the same modifications as yourself" (of which I have none). Strange.

it looks really good but i doubt my comp has the specs, maybe lowest settings idk. i got a sempron 3400 900mb ram 128 video but intergrated which is dumb but w/e maybe ill have a better comp

same specs as bf2. still some hefty specs.

Gameplay.

I like BF2 better. I enjoy the change of scenery and the new Titan mode is pretty cool but I don't like it that much. Just not a big fan of the future business you know?

It's one of those love it or hate it games I think. It was okay, but I probably won't buy it.
