Re: Pretty sad...

But 2142 isnt out for a while, and its accepted that modding with the BF2 engine is very difficult. Surely you cant start modding all the stuff when the games not even out, or even the mod tools right.

Does this mean it would be less than a year? Until advanced stuff like space battles are implemented?

Re: Pretty sad...

2142 is due out during Fall, likely early Fall.  The tools will be provided to port over all of the mod material, besides a few small details.  So, they are not starting over, they are picking up right where they left off on BF2, with a more adept engine.

@ the team: doesn't matter what some of these guys think, you are great!!!!!! big_smile:D:D

But PLEASE don't let this mod die!!! I have seen so many promising mods for other games (like Jedi Timeline for Far Cry) and so many of them died!!

Re: Pretty sad...

MOVING TO 2142 WILL NOT AFFECT THE RELEASE DATE OF THE MOD

"Other mods" aren't all sci fi mods, and therefore the game they are modding is perfectly fit for them, the game we will be modding will be perfectly fit for us. Think before you speak.

Re: Pretty sad...

Wasnt the mod supposed to be released before fall? And seeing as 2142 comes out in fall, that seems a logic conflict.

Canada eh...

Re: Pretty sad...

Many people dont realise the fact that by postponing the Mod for a 2142 release is ideal. It means the team can get the artwork all sorted out, the design code worked out (cant be too much different from bf2.... apart from the walking vehicle animations wink ).

If all the hardwork is sorted out and finalised ready for 2142, then the only thing to work out is the mapping and coding..... hence making the mod one of, if not, the 1st to be released.

So yeh..... good choice FS Devs

Re: Pretty sad...

Look at it this way...

in the certain time between our first bf2 map release and now, we will have more done for more maps for bf2142..therefore there might be a chance of a ever so slight delay but the delay is far outweighed by the amount of maps (hopefully 4) we will be releasing .

dunno if i put that right lol.

basically the ratio between time and maps is in favour of the maps with the new format.
