I'm interested in picking these games up as I had a ton of fun playing 1942 when it first came out and never got to play 2142. I know EA/Gamespy shut the official servers down, but does anyone know if there is still a community playing these? Clearly I don't want to buy them for coasters. :) Thank you for any help. :)

There are three 2142 servers listed on GameRanger right now but they appear to be empty. I'm going to assume that there isn't very many playing it anymore.

1942 was amazing back in the day. I always wanted to play 2142, but it seems I'm years too late to the party.

1942 is the best Battlefield game.
Played it ~4 years back and there were few quite populated servers back then.

I played the Bad Company 2 campaign, but I've never tried multiplayer. Maybe I'll check that out. :)

I loved BF 2142, sadly no one plays it anymore.
That's the problem with developers spamming the market with new games year after year.

that is why they are spamming - you want to play with others, you must buy newer title, get those new shiny DLCs and season passes without which you won't be able to do anything in your full (i mean base) version

btw. where are those days, when full version meant full version (as a difference from demo version), you only had to get addons (but only if you really wanted), now full version is literally full only when you get GotY release

Oh yeah, i had tons of fun playing this. Before all those repetitive yearly broken dlc shit came out.
You had a good player base and they actually cared for the game, not abandoned it after a few month of updates.

better get BF 4 if you dont have it cause EA close servers of old games like they did with NFS and other games

I have 4 and just bought Hardline a couple of days ago, but there's something about the original 1942 that just hasn't been replicated and 2142 looks a lot like it only set in the future. Guess the days of the classic scenarios are gone. :(
