Following a comprehensive development and beta testing phase, the final version of Battlefield 2142 Update 1.40 is now ready for downloading and installing. This update includes the final version of Highway Tampa for Battlefield 2142, the new tank-fest map developed in co-operation with our partner Intel. You can grab the update from the following locations.
We also have some fairly unique good news for people who already have the Final Beta Candidate installed – you don’t have to do anything. The Final Beta Candidate public test was such a success that, following compatability testing, we’re using the exact same version in this final release. The 1.40 Final Candidate Beta and 1.40 Final Update are fully compatible, you can consider them one and the same and use either on Battlefield 2142 1.4 servers.
Thanks to everyone who participated in the public betas and provided feedback, we truly appreciate your input and patience while work progressed on this update.
