im here to ask you: im i wrong to think that this game is unique as HELL for having HELICOPTERS, BOMBERS, FIGHTERS, TANKS, OPEN SPACE FOR ALL THE AIRCRAFT, HILLS AND TREES AND ROCKS FOR SNIPERS TO ENJOY, AMAZING GUNFIGHTS AND APCs ON THE GROUND OVER FLAGS AND CONTROL POINTS ? 
 
sorry for the caps but this game has all that on mutliplayer its an actual modern war with military vehicles and serious aircraft, parachuting down and gunning and diving and booby trapping bridges and and and..... is all that wonder not so unique ??? if not, can you name some multiplayer games that HAVE ALL THAT? 
 
and if it is one of a kind, WHY IS IT SO NEGLECTED??  (i believe im talking about version 1.0 which has mods which are what's super cool about this game.. the new patches are realistic and modless!!!  BF2 = MODS !)
 
EDIT: maybe now that 1943 is out, its got the attention, but until it was released ..................

Battlefield 2142.......

My dad actually plays Battlefield 2. 
 
The game is really good, especially for something roughly 4 years old.

I wouldn't call it neglected at all. There's still (from what I've heard) a strong following to that game.

Is 1.5 out of beta yet? I'm waiting for that to jump back in. I wish they added high res & widescreen support...

Codename Eagle.
 
That also had a blimp, and a mod came out that allowed for flyable rockets in game.

It's a great game but there's really nothing to say anymore as there's basically nothing new coming out for it. "

But he future is now! Stop getting your panties in a bunch. "

what? tones of people played BF2 before BF1943 came out. I bought BF2 back in 2007 and played it for about a year until I moved on to Team Fortress 2. 
 
Also, BF2142 was basically a mod for BF2.

BF2 was regarded as the best PC shooter by TONS when it first came out. Probably the reason it is still not regarded as that is because a large amount of PC's couldn't run the game at the time and when the technology to do so came around to being pretty cheap, the game already flew by people's heads because 1. They were afraid that they will be obliterated by skilled players 2. Battlefield 2142 was already out. 3. The game was just way too in depth for their want in shooters. 4. Still won't get off of Counter Strike's dick.

This topic is older than the internet at this point, but for years BF2 was the go to for shooters on the PC. It wasn't neglected, it was played to death. 
 
Even right now, right this moment, you can log in and play on hundreds of servers, many of which are full of players.

There's a bunch of reasons.  The biggest reason is it's an old game now.  It's also a multiplayer-only game, so people that missed it when it was new won't really experience many of the things that made it great.
 
The community had problems with cheaters, had problems with the leveling system, and it was a fairly high spec game and along with BF Vietnam one of the few games I had to buy more RAM to play properly.
 
A lot of people move on to newer games, and even a lot of the PC crowd moved on when the community got progressively more shitty (but it probably has been balanced for a few years now).
 
Oh, didn't realize this was thread necromancy...
 

I hate the fighter jets in this game, some people are just too damn good at flying them.
