You can get it by EA Downloader ( formerly EA Link - Formerly EADownloader...... )

I'll dig up some links and stick them in here


=================
XIII. UPDATE 1.40
=================
FEATURES
- Added a new map - Highway Tampa.
- Added an autosave to kit customisations. After you customise a kit and spawn in with that kit, the customisation will be automatically saved until you change it and spawn in again. Note that you must spawn in with a particular kit for it to be saved.
- Titans will now spawn up to two gunships per side
- Squad Leaders no longer have to resupply to re-equip destroyed drones

CHANGES
- Exploit Fix: hardcoded the time limits of Orbital and EMP strikes.
- RDX Shotgun now detonates RDX, Motion Mines, AP Mines with minimum of 2 rounds.
- Ported EU Assault Rifle changes to the Best Buy unlock as well.
- Fixed LMG Left/Right Recoil
- Revised EU Assault Rifle Recoil
- Increased Clark rate of fire to match Herzog
- Fixed PAC shotgun attachment recoil to match other Herzogs
- Further adjustment to Squad Leader drones to prevent them accidentally killing the Squad Leader when deployed
- Further fix to prevent "pod surfing". Note that some pod movement will still be possible and is an intended gameplay mechanic to allow the player to have some small choice of landing site and to access rooftops
- Smoke from the CM3-N Radar Grenade deploys more quickly. The Radar range has been slightly increased and endures for the duration of the smoke effect.
- The CM3-N Radar Grenade may now be resupplied.
- The screening effectiveness of all smoke grenades has been significantly improved.
- Adjusted Talon heat source position to improve Gunship missile balance.
- Beta Feedback: Fixed the placement of an AA gun on Highway Tampa
- Beta Feedback: Improved the visuals of the swimming pool on Highway Tampa

>_< thats the point. No-one ever uses it...

thats not true, I've used it before in matches.
SL often use in some of the INF clans to get to the point faster as you do shift ass.
Given it's unlikely you'll us it in a public scenario and I'd personally have it defaulted to heavy but some ppl do use it.

works wonders for that, otherwise no use in it at all :p

I hear the shotgun is unstoppable? I think I'll leave the last 9000 points I need to get Brig Gen if this is true.

Made no difference to me. I played a round of Tampa last night and if I didn't die from the first shotgun shot I took there was still enough time for me to finish off said opponent before they got a second shot off.

Either that or they were crap with it...

In sundays match I found a new talent for shotgun in the face .... Now I doubt i'll be out gunned by running into a voss ...You can fire 2 shots in the time it takes the voss-ier to fire 10 shots off ( that can be enough to kill ... but there are some pretty useless voss-iers

You've obviously never seen me go on a 20 kill rampage with the shotgun without dying, while defending the titan then. Ask Trax about those ;) And I am by no means the best 2142, shotgun using, player! :)

Played BF2142 last night on Highway tampa, what a huge, huge map with outposts dotted around...sort of like Afghanistan. Not sure whether I like it or not - not much thought went into it's design really.

Highway Tampa was a competition win sponsered by Intel, the map was NOT made by EA / DICE
