Battlefield 2142

Earlier this month, word began to spread that Digital Illusions CE was working on a new project. The source was a video clip that appeared to be an internal test reel from the soon-to-be-EA-owned developer. However, instead of the historical and contemporary settings used by DICE's Battlefield series, the clip showed a futuristic setting.

In an interview with Shacknews.com, senior producer Dan Blackstone on Shacknews.com dropped some not-so-subtle hints that the game would be titled Battlefield 2142. That was apparently confirmed over the weekend, when what appeared to be a full teaser trailer for the game surfaced.

Viewable on YouTube, the trailer has all the trappings of a legit game preview, including the EA and DICE logos and the requisite copyright fine print. It also shows off the Battlefield 2142 logo and reveals its release date--fall 2006.

The trailer also unveils some key details about Battlefield's plot, which hinges on a world war nearly a century and a half from now. Following a catastrophic global climate change, the earth is plunged into a severe ice age. Glaciers extend thousands of miles from the North and South poles, burying most of the continents under a miles-thick sheet of ice.

With habitable land in scare supply, the remnants of humanity become engaged in the mother of all turf wars. The trailer shows the weapons used to wage said war, which include the same mechs and hoverships displayed in the previous trailer. Also shown are some Stryker-like armored vehicles and some advanced infantry sprinting around in high-tech rigs.

uz ovo i quake wars vidim da ce do kraja godine pastio apgrejd mashine [^]

a poshto je potvrdjeno da vest nije lazhna izashao je i malo detaljniji info

Battlefield 2142, set 200 years after series debut Battlefield 1942, will take place on a not-too-hospitable Earth. After a new Ice Age renders much of the planet useless, survivors decide to ignore good will and scrap for the remaining inhabitable terrain near the equator with high-tech weapons and vehicles.

There will be two factions to choose from--the fictional Pan Asian Coalition and the European Union. Though land may be scarce, technology apparently isn't. Gamers will be able to pilot battle mechs that rule the ground and futuristic aircraft that watch over the skies. Infantry won't simply be crushed underfoot of said mechs; they'll have some tricks up their sleeves, including EMP (electro-magnetic pulse) grenades to put machines on the fritz and cloaking devices to sneak around the playing field undetected.

EA assures the BF faithful that the story doesn't mean that the popular multiplayer franchise is becoming a story-driven single-player game. "The story drives both single-player and multiplayer modes in the game," an EA rep told GameSpot News. "While we do have a single-player component, the focus is first and foremost on delivering the multiplayer Battlefield experience that fans have come to know and love."

Said multiplayer experience will include support for up to 64 players and character-persistence returns, with success leading to new weapons, medals, and ranks. There will also be a commander mode, which allows players to "go behind the scenes...to direct the strategic assaults of their teammates." EA could not comment further on the commander mode but promised that more details will be available at E3.

Battlefield 2142 is scheduled to ship this fall. EA has not released rating or pricing information for the game.

Vest nije lazna vec neko vreme ... jos od one prve najave kad je DICE nabacio "zagonetku" u vidu narednog dela BF-a. Gledao sam i neki stampani preview (skenirani), i ne deluje to loshe.

Komandanta ima vec u BF2, nije to neka novost kali :)
