In BF2, it only renders undergrowth within a certain radius, say fifteen meters, so sometimes you have situations where players thing they are covered but they are not. Is there any chance of a server-side option to standardize this? Shack: Undergrowth is frequently used for cover, but the amount of undergrowth is dependent on the user's level of graphical fidelity. They have to be balanced, so we're testing them over and over and over for perfection. We've had asymmetrical maps ever since 1942, but we have to have a balance of symmetrical and asymmetrical maps. Kristoffer Bergqvist: Some of the maps are definitely asymmetrical, especially the assault maps. Is that something you'll have more of in BF2142? Shack: In 1942, there were maps that were more asymmetrical in terms of equipment and vehicles.
Kristoffer Bergqvist: It will be a smaller number of points than in Battlefield 2, more in between where 1942 and Battlefield 2 were. Shack: Are you going for the Battlefield 2 type of Conquest with a large number of points, or is it more of a smaller number as in 1942?
Kristoffer Bergqvist: Yes, Conquest is in there as well. Shack: We've seen Titan mode quite a bit. Thanks to the valiant efforts efforts of Shacker alias, to whom I cannot extend enough gratitude, the interview was returned to a semi-comprehensible state and I managed to decipher the following exchange: Unfortunately, my voice recorder had other plans, and turned my wave file into a garbled mess. Since the game mechanics are already fairly well known at this point and there have been numerous previews of Titan mode, I opted to seek out DICE producer Kristoffer Bergqvist to ask some fairly specific questions about the game, many of them suggested by Shackers. Recently, EA also held an event at its Redwood Shores headquarters to give various press and community members a chance to check out the game's Titan mode. Developer Digital Illusions CE's Battlefield 2142 is nearing its planned October release, and some players are starting to get a taste for the latest entry in the Battlefield series as the game's limited beta has begun.
