Quoted post: EA AND DIGITAL ILLUSIONS ANNOUNCE BATTLEFIELD 2142 FOR PC

All-new Title from the Award-winning Battlefield Franchise to be set in the Future

Redwood City, Calif. – March 22, 2006 – Fight an all-out war for survival in the year 2142. Electronic Arts (NASDAQ: ERTS) and Sweden-based developer, Digital Illusions, today announced development of the next installment in the award-winning Battlefield™ franchise, Battlefield 2142™. The ground-breaking first-person shooter is scheduled to ship this fall for the PC.

The year is 2142, and the dawn of a new Ice age has thrown the world into a panic. The math is simple and brutal: The soil not covered by ice can only feed a fraction of the Earth’s population. Some will live, most will die. In Battlefield 2142, players will choose to fight for one of two military superpowers in an epic battle for survival, the European Union or the newly formed Pan Asian Coalition. Armed with a devastating arsenal of hi-tech assault rifles, cloaking devices and sentry guns, players will also do battle using some of the most imposing vehicles known to man. Massive battle Mechs wage fierce combat on the ground, while futuristic aircraft rule the skies. When facing one of these new behemoths, players will need to use their wits and an arsenal of new countermeasures like EMP grenades to level the playing field.

"Battlefield has long been synonymous with innovative, best-of-breed online multiplayer action," said Sean Decker, Executive Producer, DICE. "By stepping into the future with Battlefield 2142, the team at DICE has reinvented the rules of engagement for the next century.”

Team play features allow up to 64 players to enter the action on the front lines as part of a formal squad, or work behind the scenes in Commander Mode to direct the strategic assaults of their teammates. With in-game success, players increase their rank and unlock awards, including new weapons, medals and more, delivering the most comprehensive and flexible persistence in the Battlefield universe to date.

This looks almost exactly like Mechwarrior/Battletech in some aspects.

Shouldn't they have the technology by then to make food that DOESN'T depend on soil?

Either way, it sounds interesting. We know they do old and current war well, so I'm interested in seeing how creative they are when it comes to future war

My friend Adam plays it a lot. I am not a big fan of computer games, myself. If I had a controller I could hook up to the computer that was similar to a PS2 or Xbox 360 controller I would probably play it. It looks like a fun game.

Well I'm sure you can use the 360 controller to work with this, I played it until about 6 months ago and stopped myself.

Just wait until Section 8 comes out for the Box. Basically 2142 apparently.

2142 is really fun, and they managed to fix many of the problems.
