Featured in this month's Battlefield Newsletter is the Battlefield 2142 Veteran's Program that was spoke about in the previous newsletter. Here is what this new program will give to the community:

As we promised in our last newsletter, DICE is pleased to announce the details surrounding the Veterans Program — our way to reward loyal Battlefield 2 players who are planning to play Battlefield 2142.

Players who have logged time with BF2 will be able to log onto the Battlefield website and reserve their Battlefield 2 name for Battlefield 2142 before lamers can squat on it.

Veterans status will also provide players with several other items including the following:

• An exclusive war dance animation that you can use in-game to taunt/pwn other players
• An in-game notification icon that lets other players know that you had a tour of duty in Battlefield 2
• An instant promotion that will be available the first time you log onto the game.(there you go hyper)

This will let you choose from several weapons and gadgets right off the bat—from a Herzog shotgun attachment to your assault rifle to a V5 EMP grenade available to the support class…and more.

Be sure to check back often for more news surrounding the Veteran's Program so that you can get in on the ground level.

It's great to see that the loyal fans of the Battlefield series will be rewarded in 2142. To read this month's entire Battlefield Newsletter, http://anon.doubleclick.edgesuite.net/anon.doubleclick/cms/ElectronicArts/EAGames/2006/324331/BattlefieldAugNL.html?sssdmh=dm24.91381

It would be very obvious and the cynical route to say it is a shameless ploy to get follow up sales and little about reward, however, it is the only route.

I reckon they should just put in the fingers. I always feel like doing that to tanks.

A war dancing teabag :rnr:

I loved the taunts in the Unreal Tournament series, they always cracked me up.
Sure it's totally pointless in BF, but still think it will be a lot of fun.
