I'm thinking of buying Battlefield 2 cuz i need a new game and its pretty cheap now, but I'm wondering if people still even play it or not, can someone tell me the approximate average number of players online?

Same goes with 2142, do a lot of people play that online compared to BF2?

Which should I get?

BF 2142 if you like futuristic battles and BF2 if you want modern day.

They both have the same style of weapons regardless of weither or not they are futuristic, but I believe the vehicles, the use of jump pods, and the Titan mode really does make 2142 worth more. It dosent have as many expansions, but that can be interpreted both ways, for or againsed.

Try the demos for each, I belive there are some, and decide for yourself.

Depends what you like, battlefield 2142 is futuristic game and battlefield 2 is modern video game. You should try the demos and see which one you like better.

Don't you just love Futureshop. BTW, you could get the Complete BF2 Collection for i think $40 at Futureshop. I'd go with BF2, more mods, more fun. I bought BF2142, and sold it about 2 months ago. Just got too boring, but definitely try the demos first.

I say 2142 because u can sorta customize you're own shooter... So the more you kill, the more you're rewarded! i didnt like BF2 that much...

what astounds me even more is the fact that this question is even asked....

Do you like team work?

bf2 or 2142 will do

If you like run and gun, then stick to cs,sof2,halo,wolfenstein etc etc

Find a copy of BF1942. It's much more fun than any of it's sequels. BF2 and BF2142 aren't anything more than just mods to the original.

Yea, I agree I played a good amount of time on 2142, i got bored of it. I still play BF2 a LOT right now and its got 3 expansions. so get the $40 collection. 2142 is NOT WORTH THE MONEY.

2142 is great. you just have to find the right servers to play on and it is really fun. i haven't played bf2, though, so i can't really compare them...

vanilla BF2 is terrible now, filled with lamers, hacks and whatnot, Bf2142 is a bit better but I prefer more realism. SO I have Bf2 and play the Project Reality mod for it.
