The First strike mod for BF2142 is now released. Their site so busy, I can't load it even.

Anyways, it is also released on BF2142files right here. (How can I get a hyperlink on "here" actually?)
The file is 878.8 MB

EDIT: Tip, I'm finally on their site, if you look there you can also find a torrent of it. That goes MUCH faster.

Instead of 12 hours download, 1 and a half :D.

And a little space screenshot:

I enjoyed myself, played for a few hours.

It definitely does play like a beta though. Which is fine, but I was sorta disappointed (I don't really follow the mod, I just remembered reading on the site it was released today, and was expecting a fuller version).

Obviously bug stuff/suggestions should go on the First Strike site, but..

Space maps had the potential to be really a blast, but as soon as I got into the big dogfights, my computer would switch to slideshow mode at 10 fps. I can run BF2142 Diet Dr. Pepper near maxed out @ like 60 fps. And some of the ground maps could get pretty nasty aswell.

Also, I had very poor hit registration. Probably a symptom of the lag, but annoying nonetheless.

Definitely has potential though, and the bugs/inconsistency (like how some buy menu pics are big and others small- other small stuff like that)/sounds(few of the gunfire shots sounded anything like I remember from the movies. sorta annoying)/occasional ctd's definitely haven't shaken off my interest in the mod.

I got a problem. When the Mos Espa map loads, it exits out of the Application.

Space is a bit difficult, you always go automatically up like in the normal BF2142 with the gunship.
Because of this you can't keep aiming well. X-Wing Alliance is definitely much easier with it's target locked feature:P , but not better.

I love First Strike, amazing. Endor is my favourite, because its not urban type fighting, and its a new type of gameplay, only problem is all the crashes.
Hmm, i find Space really easy. Yesterday had an amazing battle, 64 players, at Hoth escape (load of GTers of course), shooting every were, really cool.

Yeah the patch works nice. No more bugs or crashes on Endor, I really like cruising with that speeder. :)

Thats the truth, Ooooh this makes me want 2142 really bad.
Did you see those personal deployed shields in the video? Totally awsome.
It looks like America's Army crossed with SW.

Hey I should make a Personal Shield Generator model... alittle transparentcy and...
