    I would kill for a ressurected battlefield 2142. I know there is a community one out there but I wish it made a comeback as a remaster or something.

      SO MUCH. I got so hyped for a brief second there a while back, until I realized it was “2042” and they missed the “1”. Then I was like “Aw c’mon for real?”

      The aesthetic was really cool, and Titans mode was awesome. Although I’d like if we could solve the problem where every server owner froze titans in place because they’d crash / slow down the server if people moved them! 😂

      I even got that preorder version that gave you a flashdrive that looked like one of their dogtags. THAT was cool!

      But we need a good smaller studio to basically create a spiritual successor. Definitely wouldn’t trust EA with this anymore! It’d have some rootkit-style windows-only anticheat and a storefront baked in.

      It’s right up there on my unlikely wishlist along with “Sims 3 but allow more RAM and multithreading.” 😂

      Actually know what tho? Titanfall 2 fills that 2142 niche somewhat closely. That game’s incredible. I’m glad we seem to still have that, at least.
