Teenage me found this extremely funny, but I think the creator deleted it at some point. Anyone know the video I'm talking about? Or have it saved somewhere?

Edit: I wasn't making this up. I found the exact two lines I mentioned below on a soundboard lmao. 3 and 18: https://www.soundboard.com/sb/milkmanningparttwo

You play a marine expeditionary brigade sitting around on a ship, being briefed on how you'll invade Kharg only for it to be cancelled the next day. Most of the campaign consists of you bracing for impact because a destroyer 50 miles away got targeted.

In between missions (really just blank fire excercises) you shoot the shit with your buddies and try to avoid extra duty assignments.

The going hunting mission consists of dropping 2 bombs and then leaving because the Navy is running out of explosives. There's a second flying mission in an F-35B, but you have to turn back because the radar malfunctions

The Russian paratrooper mission drops you 50 miles off target, your only firefight is with a random truck you mistook for a technical.

When the spetsnaz go to Paris they're just stuck in traffic.

Final mission Blackburn chasing after a random dude he mistakes for the bad guy but it turns out to be a bad PTSD flashback. The campaign ends with a white peace and literally nothing changing.

Really like BF3 but struggling to play it in NA East. All the servers tend to be in Europe or require expensive DLCs that are asking a bit too much for. Any way I can play BF3 comfortably in NA? Or get the DLCs for cheap.

i bought the game a while back when it wasn’t in a sale so i refunded it then and got it again today for way cheaper. i always wanted to hop on the armoured kill maps but i don’t think i ever saw anyone on them. is it still the same?

I saw the game is on sale on steam does the game worth buying?

Hi everyone at EA and the Battlefield community,

It’s hard to believe, but we are approaching the 20th anniversary of Battlefield 2142. Even after two decades, the passion for this game hasn't faded. In fact, there are still dedicated fans and community run projects keeping the game alive today because nothing else captures that same magic.

While we’ve seen many modern and historical shooters, the unique atmosphere and tactical depth of BF2142 have never truly been replaced.

The Legend of Titan Mode

Let’s be honest: Titan Mode was the pinnacle of the Battlefield franchise. Nothing since has matched that level of scale and intensity.

It wasn't just a capture the flag variant it was a multi stage tactical war.

The tension of holding silos while your Titan’s shields dropped was incredible.

The moment the shields went down and the boarding began launching yourself in pods or flying transports onto a massive moving fortress was an adrenaline rush that modern games simply lack.

We don't just "want" Titan Mode back we need it. The industry is full of standard conquest and battle royale clones, but a modernized Titan Mode with current gen destruction would be a total game changer.

The Demand is Still There

The fact that players are still active 20 years later proves that the 2142 formula is timeless. We’ve waited through modern eras, World Wars, and near future settings, but we are still waiting for the true successor: Battlefield 2143.

It’s time to bring back the Walkers, the EMPs, and most importantly, the Titans. Let’s show EA that the community is ready to board those Titans once again!

To the veterans:

What is your favorite memory of boarding a Titan? If you loved and miss the game as much as I do, please Ladies and Gentlemen, let’s make some noise so they can’t ignore us! Drop a like or reaction if you agree. Rebels, assemble! 

We’ve spent 20 years looking at the horizon, waiting for those engines to roar again. The community is still here, the passion hasn't faded, and the potential for a modern-day Titan Mode is too great to ignore.

EA, it’s time to listen to the veterans who built this franchise. Give us the sequel we’ve been dreaming of since 2006. Let’s bring Battlefield back to the 22nd century.

This game was a massive part of my childhood, I literally grew up playing it, i played the game every single day from 2006 until EA closed the servers in 2014.

Man, I miss the golden days! But I’ve said what’s on my heart. I’m out.

This is just a message from a true Battlefield 2142 fan who truly misses this masterpiece. It’s a part of who I am as a gamer.

See you on the battlefield hopefully on the deck of a Titan!

I have an unmodded retail PS3 and a BF3 disc. Word is there are new private servers up for Battlefield 3 on PS3. What steps do I need to take to join them?

So I've been playing a good bit and I can't withstand the strain on my hand. Does anyone know how to setup controller for mulitplayer?

Hi everyone,

I’m looking for some teammates to play Battlefield 3 with. Playing with randoms is often frustrating because many players just sit in one spot, camp, or don’t play as a team.

I’d like to find people who communicate, play the objectives, work together, and enjoy coordinated gameplay.

I’m open to playing with people from any country. If you’re interested in teaming up, send me a message or leave a comment.

See you on the battlefield!

I tried to launch it via the battlelog, it opens the ea app fine but remains on “EA app is waiting” despite it. Tried multiple browsers but only edge seems to support it anyways. Any tips?

So...

I made a new Close Quarters server because I adore the DLC. East coast USA, hosted from New York.

Currently it's set to 32v32 Domination with all 4 maps in rotation.

I'm down for suggestions. I want to make this DLC pop again.

I am down for game mode rotations, I just chose Domination with too many players because it's what I had the most fun on back when BF3 was live.

So I recently got BF3 and BF4 on Steam, I used to play BF3 on PS3 upon initial release until 2013-14 around there. I'm looking to set up a little pack to unlock the Co-op weapons and do the cool shit on Conquest and Rush.

Am I misremembering that this game had voice comms at one point? I reinstalled last week after many years off and I am looking for some to play with! We used to rock some fantastic squads. Anyone have a teamspeak server that sees some action? Maybe a discord?
