Post your Battlefield 2142 advertisements you find....

[Ipodzanyman]

I haven't seen really any advertisements till now:



-post advertisements that you see, I haven't seen anything else...

@admins if this is spam, sorry....

[Lord_Wyrven]

Ah, in game advertisements you mean? I am usually too busy trying to avoid getting shot at to look at the scenery.

[Ipodzanyman]

Ya, I want to see what kind advertisements they slip into game...

[CarbineImpulse]

nah takes nothing away from the gameplay

[Ipodzanyman]

Did you edit that in, or how in the world did that get there?

[CarbineImpulse]

5 mins worth of photoshop!

[Murdocr]

LOL, nice one carbine' ^^. i havn't seen any yet, but i'll keep an eye out.

[yankeefan05]

It doesnt take away anything from the gameplay.

I think advertisement is smart idea when making mods for BF2142. Of course no1 shall do it excessively. For example what Carbine did is fine and pretty cool.

[Captain_Mazda]

Haven't seen anything other than the default EU/PAC ads.

[Ipodzanyman]

I'm I the only one who constantly sees these Intel ads?

[Delta_57_Dash]

lol... if someone could make a mod so that you see the GT thing instead of ads that would be sweet!

[Captain_Mazda]

I guess EA knows "The Captain" must not be disturbed with garbage advertisements and has wisely left me alone.

[Ipodzanyman]

Maybe it is spyware, I have an Intel Celeron, maybe they are hinting something......

[Captain_Mazda]

The crap that EA is doing with the in-game ads cannot be classified as spyware.
Yes, they do use up your bandwidth to do it but it just isn't spyware.

And it's quite possible they just can't get through my system. Too secure for EA.

[Ipodzanyman]

No I meant maybe they knew I had a Intel chip and were urging me to fork out money....

:evil:

The rumours and utter crap (in some cases) spouted in regards to the in game advertising and "spy-ware" possibly associated with BF2142 are seriously begining to get me down, especially when people keep refering back to generally the same single incorrect article. Try reading some of the provided info from EA.

We would like to provide more information on in-game advertising in Battlefield 2142. To try and help everyone better understand it, here is how it works.

The in-game advertisement is respectful of players' privacy: it never accesses files not directly related to the game, and it does not capture personal data such as cookies, account login details, gameplay behaviour or surfing history. As it is an integrated part of Battlefield 2142 and not a separate program, it only runs when the game is running.

Because BF2142 delivers ads by region, the IP address of the player is used to determine the region of the player and helps serve ads by region and language; for instance, a player in Paris will be presented with ads in French. Note that this IP address is not stored on the advertisement server and is not repurposed for other uses.

A unique ID number is anonymously assigned the first time the player joins a Battlefield 2142 online game. It is stored locally on the PC but is not linked to any personal details.

The in-game advertisement gathers what we call “impression data”, such as location of the billboard in the game or duration of advertisement impression. It helps see how many people have seen an ad – but not who has seen it.

We are also conscious that the advertisement shouldn’t distract the player from the overall gaming experience, so all ads fit in the unique environment of each level in the game. The content of the ads is also controlled to ensure that no offensive content is displayed in Battlefield 2142.

We all hope that this explanation will address recent concerns on the advertisement in Battlefield 2142.

I would like to think that maybe that was the last we'd hear of the BF2142 / spy-ware rubbish but lets face it, it won't be. Ad's are going to be more common place in games (lets face it) so lets get used to it.

What intrigues me more is just how much Intel might have payed EA to have that ad in game.

[Ace_Azzameen_5]

(lets face it) so lets get used to it.

Um. No.

Not unless I get it for half price. . .

Hey, does the EULA say anything about not modding specific things?

I sense that a certain mod for this game may be the most popular mod ever. At least players per purchase who use it.

I'm talking of course, about a mod that replaces the ads with well, realistic non-real ones .

[Captain_Mazda]

No I meant maybe they knew I had a Intel chip and were urging me to fork out money....

3.2GHz Intel Pentium D dual-core 64-bit over here, not a single Intel advertisement. It doesn't send out hardware information, remember that.

[Ipodzanyman]

ok just checking; Celeron R 2.66 GHZ

[squipple]

Can't wait until someone actually does hack that system and put in some offensive material. Sit back and watch the lawsuits flood in.
More likely some gamer will put some "pwned" sign on there or something.
