Genres:Shooter

Story:Having placed their previous online shooters in WWII, the Vietnam War, and modern day settings, Battlefield 2142 took place in a future where a new ice age had thrown the world into a panic.
The soil not covered by ice can only feed a fraction of the Earth’s population, and players choose to fight for one of two military super powers in an epic battle for survival: The European Union or the newly formed Pan Asian Coalition. Introducing a futuristic art style, science fiction weaponry, and the asymmetric game mode Titan, Battlefield 2142 still has a hardcore following that doesn’t want to leave the future behind.Show more

BF2142 is awesome! It has full mod support, bots, Titan game mode, interesting lore. I've been modding BF2142 for many years and would absolutely love to see it brought back from the dead. Such a shame EA let it die like many other Battlefield titles.
Oh man, BF2142. This game haunts my nightmares. I had the original CD but for some reason I could never manage to get the patches working, so I was not able to play online back in the day. I did however play a lot of the singleplayer with mods and I have a lot of fond memories. Fast forward some years and here comes the revival project. Man, when that was around I caught up to the online and what a game this is. I already loved BF2, and this is that game on crack. Titan mode is truly peak Battlefield and it's a crime that it never really came back (the mode in BF4 isn't really the same). Since by then the people playing were all fans of the game, the teamwork was pretty good and really elevated the arcade but tactical gameplay the series had at that point. They don't really make games like this anymore, it's either balls to the wall action or super tacticool games where you absolutely need to get a good squad to survive. I crave a game like BF2142 again, and while that doesn't come back, I would love for it to be easily accessible again. Maybe we can't get a new master server, but at least people would be able to get the software and join fan made ones more easily if they can get it in an official manner.
out of all the Battlefields i ever player from Battlefield 1942 to 2042. This one...Battlefield 2142 is by far the best one of them all. Titan Assault Mode was the best experience anyone will ever have in a battlefield game. They tried to recreate it in BF4 with Carrier Assault but it was not the same at all.
I still have this and still play it from time to time. This is a must to release on here, regardless of the amount of votes. It is vital this game stays alive and somehow in some way bring servers back.
This is the Battlefield I compare all subsequent Battlefields against, and I have been left wanting. No game has quite scratched the same itch. Whether playing as a squad leader, commander, or general foot solider, the varied maps and vehicles really brought this near-ish future game to life. While not impossible to run in the modern day, it takes a few hoops to jump through and it would be a good game to have a home at GOG.
BF 2142 was a way ahead of its time. Titan mod was a masterpiece. Still playing multiplayer/Project Remaster with bots sometimes, so much nostalgy in this game. Waiting for BF 2143, if EA gonna do this, that might revive BF
Would love to see this game get rereleased especially given OpenSpy provides a drop in replacement for GameSpy servers, this was one of the first FPS games I played and is a shame it's not longer sold.
The most underrated game in the entire Battlefield series. Futuristic settings, with asymmetric sides. Unlockable weapons and gear that didn't require a battle pass, and giant freaking mechs. I spent hours playing this game. Currently it's only playable on a handful of underground servers, it would be great to see it brought back.
2142 is unmatched in futuristic warfare theming. Although this was the worst selling Battlefield title, all players can help the team win by simply running around capturing points or transporting troops to locations and expert players master of their class or vehicle of choice. This game is currently unpurchaseable which also means lack of player discoverability. There are currently a few servers but that causes issues when admins get ahead of themselves so more options of server hosting would be nice. There is a remaster mod too that is in development which could get more attention if given the chance.
L.A. Noire: The Complete EditionL.A. Noire is set in Los Angeles in 1947 and challenges the player, controlling a Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) officer, to solve a range of cases across five divisions. Players must investigate crime scenes for clues, follow up leads, and interrogate suspects, and the player's success at these activities will impact how much of each case's story is revealed.
The game draws heavily from both the plot and aesthetic elements of film noir, stylistic films made popular in the 1940s and 1950s that share similar visual styles and themes, including crime and moral ambiguity. The game uses a distinctive colour palette, but in homage to film noir it includes the option to play the game in black and white. Various plot elements reference the major themes of detective and mobster stories such as Key Largo, Chinatown, The Untouchables, The Black Dahlia, and L.A. Confidential.
L.A. Noire is notable for using Depth Analysis's newly developed technology MotionScan, whereby the actors portraying the game's characters were recorded by 32 surrounding cameras to capture facial expressions from every angle. The technology is central to the game's interrogation mechanic, as players must use the suspects' reactions to questioning to judge whether or not they are lying. L.A. Noire was the first video game to be shown at the Tribeca Film Festival. Upon release, the game received wide acclaim for its advances in storytelling and facial animation technology. As of February 2012, both PC and console versions had shipped nearly 5 million copies combined.
In addition to the original full game, L.A. Noire: The Complete Edition for PC will include a multi-use code to access all the previously released downloadable content from the console versions, including the “Nicholson Electroplating” Arson case, the “Reefer Madness” Vice case, “The Consul’s Car” Traffic case, “The Naked City” Vice case and “A Slip of the Tongue” Traffic case.Open world Action Historical Thriller Warfare Sandbox Mystery
