as far as I know the only benefit we would have is getting the atst/atat to work much better. however if that is worth it, I'm not really sure. it would probably mean a lot of converting time, and I personally don't want to port over to bf2142 since I think that game is lost, and won't be much fun at all.

Hear Hear!

And dont assume that because theyre both technically sci fi the audience is the same.... I know many BF2 players who like me abhore the generic cash in sci fi crap they are making with 2142 and quake wars, but I really like star wars...

Remember, for every Star Wars, there is a  galaxy of battlestars! (and quake, doom, bf2142, etc)

For every Beatles, a barrelfull of Monkees!

I agree with the last wookiee poster on SW lasers. Remember Galactic conquest? Believe me, I nailed quite a few people unsuspectfully from behind, the lasers are way too fast and deadly for them to react.

However, lasers make a lot of noise, so when fired close quarters they will alert people. Is there anything wrong with that? Absolutely not.... means you have to be smart enough not to fire your laser until youre going to hit the person....something anyone would figure out trying to be stealthy.

Yeah and ak101's are loud but people don't seem to notice when they're getting shot at by one of them.

Re: 2142

Heh, I like shooting people with the ak 101, but not being on the receiving end. Seems like it and the DAO 12 are the only guns that werent nerfed. G3 aint bad, but not as good as ak 101, thats for damn sure.

Lasers make a loud, distinctive sound however. In bf2 the sound of an ak101 is easily drowned out in a large map by the explosions, radio, etc etc going on.

I always hear people shooting at me, and have never been snuck up on.... so even louder lasers should be good.

Re: 2142

omfg why does everyone have to be so hateful toward the mod?
dont u freakin understand that bf2142 will make modding the walkable at-ats and crap easier?
and make the whole freakin mod more fun to play?
i understand that u guys are thinking that now the whole coding and texturing and stuff has been thrown out now that they're moving it to bf2142, but dont think that.All they are doing right now is pausing the game development for bf2142 to come out so they can go on with their modding.

Re: 2142

No, they are not pausing the mod developement. I could make a texture or model for an object in bf 1942 and use the same texture and model for an object on bf vietnam. BF 2 and BF 2142 use the same base engine so everything should be easy to transfer. This is why they say moving to BF 2142 will not delay the release because they are still working on it.
