Re: Pretty sad...

Yeah, it is pretty sad. Sad that we put all this time and effort into a mod that some people don't appreciate.
The thing is, we have to move. There is no other way around it. I'm sorry that you have to spend $50 on another game but trust me when I say this, moving is for the best.

Tell you guys what...  don't buy 2142 until FS is released and you've seen some screenshots and maybe a trailer or read the reactions of people on the forums. That way, if it's not something you would like to play, you haven't wasted your hard earned money. We haven't made any money making it so why should you have to pay money to play two games you wouldn't like? big_smile

Re: Pretty sad...

Don't use the 'excuse' that it's a Sci-Fi mod and this is a 'War Based' game. GC was a Sci-Fi mod and they did fine. As I said, I think it's just because you aren't ready.. I'm not disapointed because you all are going to wait til the next game... but for the fact you basicaly lied to us.

Besides, why don't you use ET:QW? I'm not an expert programmer, but I do believe that game is going to be a lot better. It's on the Doom 3 Engine.. which is way sturdier than BF2 engine. You know how EA is with it's patches.. once every in a blue moon... and everytime they release one, it gives more bugs! It's basicaly the same game as BF2142... but on a better engine. Besides, it's being published by Activision which is an awesome company... unlike EA.

Because 1: I, aswell as many others, would not get this mod if it was not on the bf series and 2: If they went to any other game (other than 2142) they actually would have to throw out most of what they have done and it would take another year or two for this mod to come out. Do you want that?

Excuse? Its their baby man, not yours. They make the mod the way they see fit to make it. It will get posted on the internet. If you click on it to download thats your buiseness. How the mod is made is not. Beggars can't be choosers.

Re: Pretty sad...

im sure you dont want to see more chicken walkers on wheels, looked kind of funny though. If you stopped the AT-AT at just the right moment on GC all four legs would be airborn.

How would they do Ion Cannons on QW? without EMP damage from 2142 it would just be another plasma cannon.

Re: Pretty sad...

No-one lied to you ! . A guess was made at the start of the mods life , not actually understanding how much work was involved. It has been said time and time again that it was not a release date or a promise.

Your attitude is that of a spoilt brat , im sorry to say.

At least the other guys , whilst being disapointed , understand.
