In year 2047, the alien crystal element - commonly known as "Tiberium" - began blanketing the Earth. As war continued over the past century between the European Union (EU) and the Pan Asian Coalition (PAC), Tiberium fields continued to grow, changing the course of Nature forever. The year is now 2142, and the dawn of a new Ice Age has thrown the world into a panic - a global threat that nobody has ever expected. In "Command & Conquer 2142", the two military superpowers will collide - in an epic battle for the last habitable lands. The math of this war is simple: Some will live, most will die.

Hello to our moddb friends and visitors :D
Hope all of you are doing well! For those of you who're about to have/having exams right now like us in the mod team, we wish you good luck!!!!!
First of all, we're delighted to announce that just about 2 days ago, cnc2142 made it's way to rank #6 / 11042 mods registered worldwide on Moddb! This is truly AWESOME - thank you all for your continued support! ^^
Now, on to our topic of the day, regarding last week's favourite map vote, it seems like "Suez Canal" and "Sidi Power Plant" are still tied for the top spot.. so looks like we're gona have to put BOTH into our first public release! Having said that, we will also have a few of the mod team's favourite BF2142 maps in our public release - so no worries! :P
Also, I've released another 2 CNC2142 screens, one in-game demonstrating our first air vehicle (EU's UD-12 Shepherd), and another screen demonstrating our vehicle upgrades! If you've missed that, you ought to check it out and tell us what you feel about the new releases! :)
Well, thats about it for today's update. Take care!! ^^

Ranked #6?! Awesome.
Minsk would be awsome
Canal* :3 and maybe a Infantry only map? LIike Camp Gibudgilar(Or w/e its spelled D:)
HAHHA it's spelt as gib-ral-tar :P we are definately looking into it, one big problem is potential sniper/recon spam.. we'll keep you guys posted!
I can't wait for this, man. Can't wait to see the sort of infantry upgrades you'll be using, either.
Port Bavaria could be an assault map where 2 or 4 players could play, two under and two on.
If there were a Port Bavaria map for C&C 2142, I think the only way you can get units up/down there would be to ferry them with an air transport, so wouldn't the enemy build loads of AA guns to prevent them from ferrying units THEREFORE resulting in a map which is always a stalemate?
we will definately look into the idea of the map, but yeah, at least if i were playing as a up-hill position, I'd spam anti-air ever so badly on the edge of the cliff haha!
Easy tactic to beat the AA blockade would be to use an EMP strike plus an orbital bombardment on a certain area, then get 'em through the breach.
so true so true ^^
how about Highway peninsula it could be nice map for CnC2142
Whats Highway Peninsula? Do you mean Highway Tampa?
so where are the infantry, I haven't seen any yet
They're working on it, infantry takes a bit more time to model/skin because the game only allows a certain amount of detail (polys etc).
