Battlefield 2142: Getting in on the action with 1.40 Beta Patch

While you're all distracted with that other beta, don't forget your old favourites. We just got a late-night email from DICE letting us know there's a new, beta, patch out for Battlefield 2142. You remember, don't you? That game that was the Next Big Thing before the next Next Big Thing came along?

Anyway. The patch, 1.40, is available either as a Standalone or as a 1.25 -> 1.40 Upgrade - and it is in beta only - please back up your files and install for "testing" purposes. I think "wanting to play Highway Tampa" constitutes "testing", there.

PLEASE ONLY INSTALL FOR TESTING PURPOSES AND MAKE SURE YOU BACKUP YOUR FILES

=================
XIII. UPDATE 1.40
=================
- Fixed an exploit that would allow commanders to call Orbital and EMP strikes before it had fully recharged.
- The Clark RDX Shotgun can now detonate other nearby explosives.
- EU Assault Rifle recoil and deviation have been slightly reduced.
- Bianchi and Shuko LMGs recoil reduced.
- Clark Shotgun rate of fire increased.

FEATURES
- Added an autosave to kit customisations. After you customise a kit and spawn in with that kit, the customisation will be automatically saved until you change it and spawn in again. Note that you must spawn in with a particular kit for it to be saved.
- Added a new map, Highway Tampa.
