EA and DICE are pleased to announce that Battlefield 2142 has gone gold. Meaning that after months of internal testing and balancing, the game has been handed over to the quality assurance team for final testing.
Excellent news for anybody like me, who is gagging to get there hands on the full, final version. So does this mean that EA / Dice have no excuses for not getting it released intime for my birthday?. I doubt it, but then again i will be far too wasted to switch on a PC, let alone play anything. and i dont wanna get my K/D ratio of to a bad start by being under the influence.
Anyway, here is a message from the head dude @ some company that has somthing to do with BF2142..... yes i have done my research well.... and no i havent just nicked this from somewhere else......
A Message from the Battlefiled 2142 Senior Producer, Marcus Nilsson
As the beta tests for BF 2142 have finished, on behalf of everyone at DICE I wanted to personally thank you for your help with the development of the game. We gave you a mission, and you delivered above and beyond what we could have hoped for. Thanks to your hard work, we've already made over 3000 bug fixes and very many changes to BF 2142, and we continue to fine-tune the game based on your feedback. Some of the forum traffic we've read has asked what fixes we are making, and while there isn't room to list all of the changes, your feedback made us make some major changes to Titan shield layout as well as adding death material to the outside shield, killing people trying to just sit and wait for shield to go down. These changes plus more around the Titan is making the fights even more intense and rewarding.
We have also, based directly on your feedback from both rounds of the Tuning Beta made a number of gameplay changes. The Support class's Machine Guns now overheat slower and cool down quicker when not firing. The Doragon and Talon gunships have received an increase in maneuverability to allow for better dogfights. Additionally, all Recon class's sniper rifles have had their sway substantially reduced and are able to be equipped with a more effective Gruber 5 Stabilizer. Finally, the heavy body armor now absorbs less damage from incoming projectiles, effectively increasing the power of all weapons against heavily armored opponents.
The end result is that when BF 2142 releases next month, we are confident it will be a great experience. We continue to work toward the goal we have had all along in the development cycle, which is to make BF 2142 the best BF release ever.
Thanks again for your help in this important process, we hope that you had as much fun playing as we did. We'll see you on the battlefield soon.
On a Final note.... Vinci76 iz tha bestest eva!! at playin gamez.
