2142 Battlefield Northern strike

2142 Battlefield Northern strike is a 2006 first-person shooter video game developed by EA DICE and published by Electronic Arts. It is the fourth game in the Battlefield series. Battlefield 2142 is set in 2142, during a new ice age, depicting a war known as “The Cold War of the 22nd Century”, in which two military superpowers – the European Union (EU) and Pan Asian Coalition (PAC) – battle for the remaining unfrozen land during a new Ice Age.^[2]

The game was designed primarily for multiplayer gameplay and allows for a maximum of 64 players on a server or a maximum of 16 players in single player mode against bots on Conquest mode.

It has its own ranking system to keep track of the user’s statistics similar to the one used in its predecessor, Battlefield 2. It opens up new categories of vehicles and weapons not seen in Battlefield 2.

Battlefield 2142 has an unlock system that allows the player to choose a new unlock every time they achieve a new rank instead of forcing the player to purchase items.

A booster pack called Northern Strike contains new maps, unlocks, and vehicles; a deluxe edition was released that contains Battlefield 2142 and Northern Strike.

In 2142, the plot revolves around a futuristic world war fought for control of dwindling food supplies after an ice age destroys most of the world’s habitable land. In Northern Strike, the Pan Asian Coalition leads a last-ditch effort to unseat the European Union on its home soil.

As the PAC prepares to harvest precious resources hidden under the ice sheets of mainland Europe, the EU forces must drive the invaders back towards the sea.
