I've been trying out a couple of games thought I'd let you know about. The first game is called Combat Arms. It's a free game and playable only on-line. It's a heck of a lot of fun. The best way to describe it is a cross between UT and BF2. It's fast paced as many kills as you can get but with modern weapons. A lot of the weapons are the same as BF2 with only minor differences. 2 teams in each game , most frags wins. The thing I was most impressed with was ,for a free game , it was pretty well made. There are a lot of boards and I've only played 2. The first was a junkyard. The action was furious as the board was small. The other was a plane crash set in a jungle . Lot of fun. Bigger and more places to hide but still the action was fast. All you have to do is sign up for a free account. Plays well with hardly any issues at all, Maybe an occasional hiccup , no worse than BF2 , maybe better.
I also downloaded the demo for BF 2142.It is very much like bf2 in that the set up is the same for controls and stuff. There have been a few changes though. There is no medic , sniper , or anti-tank class. There are 4 classes. Recon is a sniper class. Assault has a med kit with it for healing yourself and others. Supply seems about the same. The engineer class is the one with all the goodies. He has a rocket launcher and explosives.However the demo is kind of limiting. The game is played 1 or 2 ways . Normal conquest ,IE capture the flag or titan mode where you have to blow up the enemy spaceship ,the Titan. I haven't tried titan because the servers are always full . Maybe this weekend I'll be able to get on.
