    2142 Beta 1.5 Released

    [Battlefield 2142] Battlefield 2142 Update 1.50 Beta
     

    Starting today you can be part of the Beta phase of Battlefield 2142 Update 1.50. Update 1.50 is a big step for Battlefield as it is the first time we have included community created maps and included them into an update. Wake Island makes a come back thanks to The Sir. Community and appears alongside a brand new map new to Battlefield created by Jason Brice, Operation Shingle. Also, for those who prefer to fight on foot, we have added a No Vehicle option to a number of maps to allow you to fight without worrying if you’ll come face to face with a Battle Walker. Also, as requested by match broadcasting groups we have separated the Commanders voice volume from the Sound Effects so you can keep the explosions and gun fire without the Commander interrupting the broadcast.

    I created another server today to run this beta.  The ip is 64.34.163.162:15570  I am waiting on a support ticket to have the beta installed on the server. I will keep you posted.

    Some one post how to run both current version 1.4 and the Beta 1.5?

    I am trying to remember from Northern Strike days, but for the life of me I can't.  I believe I had to make a copy of the entire directory structure than run the patch.

    Simblade will post the info on how to install the patch and be able to run the older version without re-installing.  We haven't had an ok for the update yet from Wolf Servers

    It looks like we can't put up that server, yet.  But Wolf might give us one of there servers to run for them instead.  The ip is very close to ours and it would be in Va too.  The only thing we can't do is change the name, but everything else is ok.  So we can put our server addresses and website in the  in-game chat.  Will keep you posted.

     looks great. too small (looking) though. More verticle than horizontal. definately looks too small for walkers, but they added the no vehicles feature so thats really cool. looks like fun.

     looks meh. definately better than tampa, but still looks too small. Looks fun though. maybe a great infantry map though. I will definately give it a try.

     I played both new maps tonight, Operation Shingles and Wake Forest.

     

    AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME

     

    Shingles ... so many different levels to this game, everything comes into play, especially sniping.  Squad play on this map will be crucial in my mind.  Need a squad with one snipe, 2 assault and supply and you'll own this map.  

     

    Wake ... what can I say ... the assault with use of the titan as flag to capture is sweet.   You board the enemy titan ... no shields, but its weapons still work and pod launching still works.  These will be fun maps for sure ... I think everyone will like these alot.  I know I am looking forward to a change from Gibralter and these will offer some great combat.
