If anyone else is playing Bf2142, I use the tag [tE] and player name Landain. I have about 5 or 6 unlocks already and this game is a blast. I love assaulting the Titans!

See my Xfire name to the left. I'm always on Xfire.

Well I can't play PS and I can't seem to play WoW either. I've logged 15:52 into Bf2142 in one week so far and my K/D ratio is 0.5 which is normal for me. In Bf2 it was 0.75.
I've received the Silver Star once, Bronze Star twice, Bronze Assault Service Badge, Bronze Armor Service Badge, Bronze Titan Combat Excellence Badge and 102 total awards of the Combat Efficiency Pins.
I've achieved the rank of Lance Corporal Silver with 7 unlocks.
My Personal unlocks include PFRG-1 Grenades, Staminar 9 (Recovers Stamina) and Sprintcor 20 Enchanced Endurance.
My Squad Leader unlocks include SLSB (Squad Respawn Point), RD-4 Otus (Recon Drone) & SD-8 Accipiter (Mobile Sentry--works like a Spitfire).
I also have one unlock in the Recon section for RDX Demo pack which works like C4 in Bf2. I will be focusing on the Assault Unlocks after I get the 2 remaining Personal unlocks for extra ammo and grenades..

Bronze Assault Service Badge means I have spent 7/15 hours with the Assault Kit. When I get to 15 hours I assume I will get an upgrade to that badge.
Bronze Armor Service Badge = I have spent 5/25 hours in Armor. Surprising because at the beginning of each match I am driving an A-8 Tiger or the PAC Hover tank.
Bronze Titan Combat Excellence Badge = I have spent 15/30 hours on a titan map. Of course Titan is the only map available in the pre-release game. Kind of difficult not to get this one.
102 total awards of the Combat Efficiency Pins = Every time you get a kill streak of 5 people without dying you get one of these pins. I didn't realize I had racked up over 510 kills just for these pins. That count doesn't include the kills that were not successive. I notice I get one or more everytime I play.

The Titan game goes like this. Start from your side and begin "Whack-a-mole" by taking all of the 5 missle silos spread across the map. The enemy is doing the same thing so you spend most of your time fighting them to retake silos that they just took. As a silo is taken it launches a missile at the enemy's Titan. First you must destroy the Titan's shields by launching these missles at it. Once they shields are down, you can either continue to take silos as this will damage the hulls or fire tank rounds at the titan from the ground or send Infantry squads onto the titan to destroy the generator. In order to get to the generator you must destroy 4 consoles inside the left and right corridors of the titan. Once they are destroyed you gain access to the generator room. Then merely fire as much lead into the generator and it will eventually blow up killing everyone and ending the game. Do this with the enemy trying to kill you. I find the titan battles the best. But first to get to the titan you must fly there from a utility helo launched from your own titan. Once on the enemy titan a squad leader can place an SLSB (mobile respawn point) on the titan for others to spawn at. This makes it so much easier to continue the fight. I have acquired 50 wins and 30 losses in the 15 hours that I have played.

sounds interesting I still have to fire it up. BTW gunther if you reinstalled PS for the outfit wars make sure that it did not put a file called "program" in the root directory of where you installed it. It has done that to me before and it keeps you from running other games.
