BF2142 20th Anniversary Event

BF2142 20th anniversary is just around the corner! On October 17, join us on the Reclamation EU & US servers. We’ll be playing vanilla (base) BF2142. It will be a rare opportunity to experience full 64-player matches once again!

Battlefield 2 is going Open Source!

Over these past years I have been working on reverse engineering Battlefield 2 in a way that we stay true to how it was created 20 years ago. Today I'm extremely happy to announce that that journey is almost complete.
The game is playable(on certain maps) and the server is 100% complete(64bit windows build).
The source code is not yet available but will be soon, it'll be under GPLv3 so as long as you keep it open and provide credits you can do with it as you please. Certain mod developers already have access.

Exploits shall be fixed, gameplay shall be improved and the experience of BF2 on modern systems will be enhanced!

Keep fighting soldiers, we'll meet on the Battlefield!

Game is unplayable

I tried every single workaround out there to play whitout crashes but nope. Like everytime i try to tweak some graphic settings or smh whenever i go play it just crashes after a while.

I have tried setting sound to software and hardware, i have set the game compatibility to winxpsp3 and run as administrator, i have tried lowering some graphic settings, i had the 1.5.3+++ and whatnot version....

I am running it on windows 10 x64 bit, i have tried both playing normal game and modded whit AIX2 and both crash sometime after playing a while.

Sadly i don't have a log nor the game atm, i was just thinking yall could gimme a hand here and see if its actually worth to download again, i have a REALLY bad laptop and yet whit some tweaks i could run AIX2 almost perfectly fine in 16,32 and sometimes 64 players map but then it started bothering my ass again.

Does anyone else yearn for modern day bot battles?

For those who dabble in the newer BFs, dont you wish you could set up a match just like bf2? Crank out the bots and spawning of vehicles so you can have a massive true all vehicle match, or something like it?

If feel like that really captures what bf was intended to do... if only you could mod the modern day series...
