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

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.
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.
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.

Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake EaterMetal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater is the follow up to Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty. It is the first prequel in the series, taking the series to the year 1964. The player takes the role as the series' original antagonist, Big Boss, then known as Naked Snake.
MGS3 is the first game in the series to take place in a jungle. This unique setting created an opportunity for new mechanics. The player can adapt to the environment by swapping Snake's camouflage, hunt animals and gather plants for food. This iteration in the series introduced a new feature in which the player must apply medicine and perform medical procedures on Snake if he is damaged in combat. Apart from the survival themed features, the controls and gameplay of the game are very similar to Metal Gear Solid 2. Like other Metal Gear games, the focus is on stealth, but the player can go through the entire game like a shooter if they choose to. Throughout the game Snake acquires weapons of all types; non-lethal firearms, handguns, sniper rifles, machine guns, shotguns, sub-machine guns, and explosives.
Metal Gear Solid 3 was the first game to implement the CQC (close quarters combat) system. CQC allowed Snake to beat enemies down to knock them out, or put them in a chokehold to knock them out, kill them, or and/or question them.
Metal Gear Solid 3's health system required the player to occasionally pause the game and treat Snake's ailments. When Snake is shot, there is a chance that the bullet didn't pass through him, requiring the player to use a knife to remove the bullet, apply disinfectant, apply styptic and bandage the wound. This was done through a submenu in the pause screen. Other ailments the player must treat Snake for include: leeches, broken bones, burns, cut, arrow/bolts/needles, stomach sickness, colds, and food/venom poisoning.
Adding to the survival elements of the game, Snake Eater lives up to its name by requiring the player to scavenge food for Snake. Under the life bar there is stamina bar. If Snake does not eat any food the bar depletes, causing various effects. When the stamina bar is low, the player's ability to aim is severely handicapped, Snake's hands will shake in the first person aiming mode. Just like real life, Snake's stomach can also rumble, enemy soldiers can hear this, and will be alerted to Snake's presence.Action Fantasy Historical Stealth Survival Drama
