For better or worse, they really are different gaming styles. BF2 had some tactical aspects, but overall it was mostly arcade. BF2142 has basically thrown out the tactical aspect and gone full tilt toward the arcade side. The only way that you can really compare the two are in the errors and bugs. In that case, BF2>BF2142 for the sake that the bugs were less destructive and less influential to the gameplay.

This is really the same stuff that we saw with BF1942 and BFV, same engine, insufficient coding (programming time), and more bugs and problems than you could shake a stick at in the 2nd version (BFV).

The face of the monster has changed, but it's still the same monster.
