A team of modders has released the latest version of BF 2142 Project Remaster. The mod aims to overhaul almost every part of Battlefield 2142. It improves the game’s visuals, gameplay, AI, weapons, animations, maps, and overall experience. At the same time, it aims to keep the spirit of the original game intact.
The latest version of the mod is v17. In this version, the team has improved the textures for terrain, roads, static objects, and vehicles. These changes help bring the game’s visuals closer to modern standards.
The mod also adds many new weapons, including sniper rifles, launchers, machine guns, pistols, and more. The font, HUD, crosshairs, minimap, and menus have also been improved for modern screens. The minimap is no longer stretched on 16:9 displays.
The team has also added more realistic explosion effects, with special thanks to the Project Reality team for their assets. The menu audio has been upgraded as well, with a high-quality track made by Cryo Chamber.
The kit customization system and soldier inventory have also been expanded. Each class now has five primary weapons, up from three. The update also adds new sidearms and a new Squad Leader gadget slot.
The weapon pool has grown as well. New weapons include the Skadi MK2 Drum rifle, a magnetic seeker grenade launcher, heavy anti-materiel sniper rifles, and the iconic Bofors rifle from the 2006 Deluxe Edition. The Bofors rifle is now available as a standalone weapon.
The Recon class also gets two new weapons: the Throwing Knife and Smoke Launcher. In addition, the Recon’s Stabilizer gadget is now built into sniper rifles and carbines.
And that’s not all. The AI view distance has been greatly increased. This means massive bot battles can now happen over much longer distances. Maps like Verdun, Suez, Port Bavaria, and Minsk should feel much more immersive.
AI spawn points have also been fixed. Bots should no longer die when they spawn. They are now better at capturing objectives and using vehicles, too.
Bots will also use assault rifle rockets against vehicles. They can now use more evasive tactics that may catch you off guard.
Finally, the Titan missile silo capture radius has been increased from 6 meters to 20 meters. This change applies to all Titan modes on all maps.
We also get some new battlegrounds. The update adds both reworked maps and brand-new layouts.
These include Backstab by Licit and Dnamro, with full bot support; Operation Imra by Licit, a reworked BF2 map for BF2142; Battle for Frankfurt by Kiaksar 2142; Port Bavaria Night by Licit; and Breakthrough at Remagen by Licit, which offers a new layout for Bridge at Remagen.
The update also adds Tunis Harbour Assault by Licit, a new assault-style version of Tunis Harbour. You can also test your gear in the Test Range by Gremlin. And if you want some serious SP/COOP chaos, you can try Backstab with the 32 players.
All in all, this is a must-have mod for Battlefield 2142. I don’t know how many PC gamers are still playing it. Still, this is precisely why PC modding is so cool.
