Getting things started on a good note, Digital Illusions have just released a new BETA patch (v1.4) for their hit multiplayer shooter, Battlefield 2142. Coming in at 99megs, this update features a brand new map called Highway Tampa and includes the following bug fixes and gameplay tweaks:

• 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.
• 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.

You can grab this sucker from the official downloads page, the FileShack or WorthPlaying. Rock on!
