moment so I thought It would be cool to create a FAQ on 2142
The Known Armies
EU(European Union)-The European Union was hit the hardest by the Ice, and seem to be the aggressor of the game, the EU is made up of the Continental America and most of Europe
PAC(Pan Asian Coalition)-Was hit by the new Ice age but not as bad as the EU, they are made up of the countries made up of Russia, Middle East, India
Third Unknown-There are rumors of a Third army but I have yet to find anything out
GAMETYPES
There are two gametypes to be reported Conquest which mostly anyone with bf2 is Familiar with and Titan a new game mode.
About The Titan
The Titan is like a Hovering Aircraft Carrier that both of the current armies use. In this game mode if you get the Commander slot you are actually the titans Pilot now. The titan also spawns vehicles like Battle Walkers, and Gunships
About the Titan Gamemode
Each titan is protected by a forcefield. That forcefield can be removed by shooting at it with various weapons, but it takes a very long time to wear it down. The forcefield has to be taken down first, before the next step can be taken.
A faster way is to secure one of the missile silos. Capturing one takes only a very short time, guessed at about 3 seconds. Once secured (similar to capturing a control point in Conquest) a timer runs down and ervey 2 minutes, a Bloc-2 ATM missle will be launched against the enemy titan. On impact it will majorly damage the enemies shields. So the first stage will be capturing silos, retake them from enemies and make sure your team launches more missiles then the enemy does. It takes roughly 4 - 5 missles to take the shield down.
Once the shield falls, its time for the invasion. Either you land with a vehicle, or you shoot yourself out of an APC with the assault pod on to the titan.
Inside, there are 4 security consoles to destroy. Each console has to be taken out, only then will your team be able to access the nuclear reactor. This is the last goal, destroy the reactor.
There is a bonus for escaping the explosion of the reactor, by jumping off the titan in time, but what exactly the bonus will be is unkown yet.
