As the Battlefield Nation Holiday Contest #2 finished, we had more debates over the winning caption.  There were e-mails being sent, instant messages being fired off, downloading of pictures, and uploading of pictures, and debates on the #bfnation channel.  After all that, a verdict has been reached.  The winner of the Caption Contest is BillyPilgrim (aka tikitoker), for his very humorous caption.  For his efforts, he will receive a copy of Battlefield 2142, courtesy from Electronic Arts.  You can view all the entries here.

Got a witty remark? Think you can name all Santa's Reindeer? Create a worthy caption to Electronic Arts present CEO Larry Probst "in the wild" picture and you too might get something slightly warmer than coal this Holiday season.

As we at Battlefield Nation begin our 2006 Holiday Contest Series, we felt the need to start off with a bang.

You are probably aware that the news media has taken the liberty of sensationalizing the holidays with what is referred to as the "War on Christmas". Instead of sitting on the sidelines, we decided to jump right into the thick of things. As Santa and his Army take over Wal-Mart and the capitalists they are, we are pleased to announce our Battlefield 2142 "Nativity Scene" photoshop contest.

We hope you join us in celebrating the Holidays as we throw this "politically correct" nonsense out the window and with open arms welcome the holiday cheer. As this is a public contest, we respectfully request that the photoshop edits be made in consideration of all ages while keeping good holiday spirit in mind.

Winner will receive a sealed copy of Battlefield 2142!



For more information, check out the Holiday Photoshop contest thread in our forums. Rules and other information can be found there as well. We look forward to your entry's. Be creative and have a great Holiday.

We're finally up and running on our new server, hosted by PingCity.

The site should be a lot faster, and we've also moved our forums from phpBB to vBulletin,
which should make the forums faster aswell, while providing a lot more features!

Let us know in the forums if you encounter any problems with the new site!

Got a bad case of the Monday Sunday blues? There's only one cure - a new episode of The Weekly Urseus.

If you've missed any of the previous three episodes; fear not - they're all in the archive.

It's Friday, so that can mean only one thing - the weekend is almost upon us! Oh, and it's time for a new episode of The Weekly Urseus. I guess there's two things then, eh?

If you have anything to say about the feature, please let us know in the forums.

Our own urseus is at it again with his new episode of The Weekly Urseus!  This week's episode is NRRC Hanzel & Gretel and shows urseus at his funniest and promises even better ones in the future.

Comment on this and other episodes in the Articles forum.

So I actually forgot that we had a weekly poll on this site.  Then I was staring blankly at the front page, like I do so often, and it hit me; what if we had a poll about Battlefield 2142?  And here we are, five weeks later and I've decided to follow through with the idea.  So what do you think of that latest Battlefield game announcement? Are you stark raving mad, or still confused as to why they never fully fixed BF42, then abandoned BFV for BF2.  Only the future knows what BF'06 (Battlefield 2142 in EA Sports style) will be like, so lets complain about what we think it will be like!
As always here is the other poll:

Here at BFNation, we pride ourselves on being a little bit different. See that messy HTML? We do that on purpose. And the occasional bug? Ditto. Well in keeping with this fine tradition, we're proud to present a new feature to the site - The Weekly Urseus.

Every Friday, BFN's very own urseus will be dispensing a few words or even pages of wisdom, depending on how many Apple-tinis he's had. This week's episode is known simply as "Drinking" and can be found on The Weekly Urseus page.

We'd love to hear some feedback, so if you have any thoughts please let us know through the Articles forum

Would you believe it? BF Nation turns four years old today!
That makes us the oldest Battlefield site on the net!

Back in April 2002, we were still waiting for the Battlefield 1942 demo to be released, while a select few of us were lucky enough to be playing the beta. Dogfighting above the Wake Island airfield, tank rushing the front at Tobruk, TNT-jumping with jeeps on Market Garden.

4 years and numerous game releases later, we're now waiting for the release of Battlefield 2142. I'd like to say a big thanks to our lovely community for sticking with us for all this time. While people have had mixed opinions on the games and patches, I can safely say we haven't had mixed opinions about the community. You guys are great and you're what keeps this site online today.

We're happy to announce, on our fourth birthday, that we are going through some changes again at BF Nation.
Firtly, BF Nation becomes BF Nation Incorporated - with our friends at EA holding a majority share!

Secondly, we're going to be moving to faster servers soon, which I'm sure you will all appreciate :)

Thanks again for sticking with us!
- The BF Nation crew

You may have noticed it's been pretty quiet around here as of late. Well have no fear, we have hundreds of monkeys clustered together coding new features for BFNation on their little typewriters. Hopefully you'll be seeing some of these finished very soon.

Additionally, we've been "thinking outside of the box" and "shifting paradigms" and stuff to bring you some new and interesting features. One of these is The Weekly Urseus, which will be released once a week, and written by Urseus. Honestly, that's all we can say without having to kill you right after.

Over the past few days, you've probably noticed that the BFNation site has been up and down like a .. well like a broken server. There seems to be a problem with our hosting that results in both the web and database processes needing restarting on a daily basis.

Please rest assured that we're working hard to try and fix these issues, even if the only solution is to migrate to another hosting provider. We apologise for any inconvenience caused, and ask you to be patient in the matter, as we hope to have the site running correctly within a matter of weeks.

Allright, so I came up with a new poll idea in the spirit of EA money making madness.  So are you stark raving mad about Euro Force or perhaps Armored Fury?  Or maybe a lil' Xboxing gets you going.  Either way just vote for something, and I don't want any of this hanging chad nonsense.

Lets review last fortnight:  Those bastards indeed.  They get us all worked up about nice little features such as being able to pick up misplaced C4, and then its, No.  Well I say Viva Revolution!  Who's with me?


 Comments

    Allright, the patch delay did bring something good.  It gave me an idea for the Poll of the Week.  So vote now, do you love the fact that the patch has been delayed?  Are you greatly annoyed that the explosive pick up feature was cut?  Do you just not care at all, or are you in a rage of anger at EA for delaying your precious updates?  So do as the guy on the $100 bill said and "Vote or Die!".
    Lets review the last poll results shall we?  Seems as though you think Battlefield: 2 beats the glory days of 1942.  Well maybe I just like running around with a Thompson in the fields of Europe and shooting BF109s out of the sky with my Mustang.  One thing I can't understand, for the love of god, who the hell voted for Battlefield: Vietnam?!


 Comments

    Its that time of the milenium.  Got the old Battlefield blues?  Do you miss the times when Panzers roamed free across the open fields?  Or when you could parachute out of your plane, land on a Japanese carrier, steal a Zero and then proceed to bomb them with it?  Well our new poll asks you which of the Battlefield games is your favourite.  So vote now because this poll will only last until I can think of a new one.  If you have an idea for the Poll then e-mail me navallord@bfnation.net
    We can't forget our last poll.  Here are the results.  Looks like the lot of ya are money hoarders.  Well you can't blame big business for being a big business.  Well I suppose you could if that big business caused your small business to go out of business.

    Right-o, with all this talk about Booster Packs for Battlefield 2 I thought to myself; "Good Lord, thats an ingenious idea for a Picture of the Day!"  Then I relized that there arn't any good pictures for the booster packs, so I decided on doing a Poll instead.  So, this years poll asks what you think about the Booster Packs.  Now I know they arn't out yet, this is asking you to use your mind and say what your impression on the idea of the Booster Pack is.  So get voting.
    Oh and by the way we have the results from last years poll.  Look at all you nerds with your hardware and whatnot.  You should of been cool and voted for "Other", like me.  I got a bomber jacket.


 Comments

If you don't know allready then I'll tell you now.  I have returned from my encarceration!  So now you can all read my whimsicle, sarcastic comments again.  Todays rant is in regards to the Picture of the Day.  Do you like that little picture towards the upper right?  Thats it folks, the infamous POTD.  Under it you will notice some text; "Submit Yours!".  I suggest you click on that and it will take to to a page where all your dreams can come true.  You can have you Battlefied artwork displayed in all its glory on the famous Battlefield Nation website.  So I request of you, submit your pictures.  The POTD has recieved little lovin, and hey, everyone needs some lovin.  So lets turn this Picture of the (whenever the poll gets updated) to a Picture of the Day.

Thank you and good day,
    NavalLord

    So our last poll lasted for more than a week.  So sue me, but just remember this, I gave you time to think.  Now how many other people let you do that?  Not many.  Anyways we have a new poll.  This latest poll asks you what is on the top of your holiday gift list.  Whether you celebrate Christmas or Hannakua or Kwanza or Christmahannakwanzaka, what do you want to recieve this season?  Here at BFN we most certainatly do not limit the holidays to just Christmas, because that would be politically incorrect, even though the mass build up of presents is the result of christmas, and so are all the santas and reindeers and christmas trees.  Fear not though because we celebrate all religious beliefs, so come one, come all, and vote in our latest poll.  Is it a brand new top-of-the-line-freeze-when-its-on Xbox 360?  Perhaps you are a book worm and enjoy nothing more than text on a page.  Or better yet you are the Grinch and want all the money you can get.  Perhaps though, you have been a very naughty person and are only expecting to recieve coal, or maybe you just got a new barbecue and need the coal to cook on it, who knows.
    Before I leave you with this most exciting of events, lets review the results from the last month or whatever it was.


 Comments

Well its been about 5 months since I last posted something, but fear not, I am still alive.  Anyway its time for a new poll.  Our previous poll of the <insert time frame here> asked your thoughts on the 1.03 patch (wait, they patched BF2?).  It seems as though the public wasn't overly impressed with it, but fear not, atleast they are still supporting the game.  Which means that more patches are to come (hopefully).
