by EA Digital Illusions CE, Electronic Arts
Genres:Shooter
Themes:Action, Science fiction
Game modes:Single player, Multiplayer
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.

The last pinnacle of the original PC Battlefield titles! I would love to see Battlefield 1942, Battlefield Vietnam, Battlefield 2, and Battlefield 2142 all on here as a Battlefield Origins or Classics Collection!

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.

Much more to say. One of my first online game. Many battle were won, many battle were lost. Over and over again and you are ready to commence. Will it bring more players and more servers? Then I am in.
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.
Those games also need your vote!

Resident Evil Survivor
Resident Evil SurvivorResident Evil Survivor is the first Resident Evil title to be rendered in real time as opposed to making use of pre-rendered backdrops. Levels are explored in first person, and when enemies are encountered the press of a button will bring up a targeting reticle for shooting. As with most light-gun games there is infinite pistol ammunition available, but limited ammunition for more powerful weapons. At the end of each level two doors are presented which both lead to different levels, although all paths eventually lead to the same ending.

Victory
VictoryVictory is a game which you control your Battlestar to destroy an alien force which has overrun your planet. This force has installed radar and quark silos on your planet and use their deadly armada to drop paratroopers to the surface to release the quarks. All is not lost however as your Battlestar is equipped capable lasers and shields as well as the “Doomsday Device”. This game was released by Exidy in 1982 and programmed by Vic Tolomei. Your controls are a spinner and 4 lighted buttons (Thrust, Fire, Shield and Doomsday). The hardware for this game is impressive for its time, containing multiple processors and speech/audio chips which add very much to the game experience. Later, there was an upgrade kit that was sold to convert Victory games to a game called “Victor Banana”, changing the in-game graphics to match a more comical theme.
