Re: bf2142 patchyness: woohooo i wonder what this pathc will break???
In short: It's a piece of crap.
In long: How can I describe 2142 to someone thinking of buying it? Picture BF2. You see these lovely environments, with everything bright? Now make everything a bit greyer and darker, well.. a lot darker and greyer. To top it off, let's stick in a stampy robot, and that's how far the developers got with the game.
Now, the game has it's good points. The classes are good, and the weapons look really, really good. I was thinking about such things a while ago when I thought I'd download the latest patch and give it a whirl, when I found out, it didn't patch! I did not see that one coming..
It's the fact EA made it, and have effectively broke it.
