    Preload the Battlefield 2142 demo now through the EA download manager or come back soon to download it first on GameSpot! Check back soon for more details on the release date.

    The year is 2142, and the dawn of a new Ice age has thrown the world into a panic. The soil not covered by ice can only feed a fraction of the Earth’s population. The math is simple and brutal: some will live, most will die.

    The Battlefield 2142 demo features the Sidi Power Plant map and two playable armies, the European Union and the Pan Asian Coalition. It also includes both the new Titan mode as well as the popular Conquest mode.

    Battlefield 2142 will be available in stores on October 18, 2006.

    Think you know all about Battlefield? Then see how you well you rank in our GameSpot's Battlefield Trivia Challenge, and the top 5 players will get a free t-shirt!

    Reckon it be out this week so, usually a week or 2 between it and game.

    its available from 9 a.m. CET tomorrow apparently to those who have pre-ordered through ea downloader, and apparently gamespot have hopped in on the deal to claim friday exclusivity for their subscribers.


    i can't confirm how true it is but see here:http://forums.fevergaming.com/game-communities/battlefield-2142/news/general-news/89912-demo-schedule.html

    This week sees the release of the BF2142 Demo, through several channels and pre-order systems already in place.

    The release schedule is as follows:

    The Battlefield 2142 demo will be available to customers who have pre-ordered the Battlefield 2142: DICE Collector's Edition on Thursday, 5th October for 24 hours exclusively.

    It will then be available on exclusive sites publicly from Friday, 6th October. E.G. The US site for this portion of the release is Gamespot.

    The exclusivity period will end at 9AM CET, Saturday 7th October so please refrain from posting the demo until this time. We appreciate your co-operation in respecting the exclusivity arrangements.

    I will send out messaging on Saturday as soon as I have the file and have placed it up for download.

    Which translates torrent on thursday about 4 minutes after the pre orderers get it.

    As posted in other thread, min spec for BF2142 looks very similar to min spec for BF2. So if your rig' runs BF2, you should be OK ;)
