Maps w/ Bots

Vanilla BF2142

Five maps support bots out of the box, all at 16 players:

• Belgrade
• Cerbere Landing
• Fall of Berlin
• Suez Canal
• Verdun

Project Remaster

The best option by far: bot support on many more maps and layouts, smarter AI, better textures and balance, and even partial Titan support in the 48-player layout.

ModDB

Most working maps on ModDB are already in the Reclamation map pack, but these four aren’t, and they’re worth a try. Backstab has full Titan support, and Close Encounter has partial Titan support in its 48-player layout.

Backstab

A faithful remake of the legendary Backstab map from Battlefield 2: Modern Combat. A desert town split by a river, so hold the bridges or get caught in the crossfire.

Molokai Redux

A significant overhaul of the original Molokai map, featuring bot support, new CQ, COOP, SP layouts, visual improvements, and the all-new Deathmatch mode.

GetBF2142

We’ve fixed and tweaked a few maps from the Reclamation map pack so they play properly with bots. Most are custom maps and classics from other Battlefield games.

Note

To install a map, extract it into mods\<MOD>\Levels in your game folder.⁶ These versions aren’t compatible with the Reclamation servers.

Street

A BF2 community map by spfreak, set in a Middle Eastern town: a linear string of control points with plenty of urban cover for intense street fights. Solid bot support makes it a blast.

What’s changed

• Removed the “ghost car”, a broken object that could get players stuck.
• Renamed control points and spawn points for clarity.

Credits: spfreak and TGW for porting it from BF2. The original is in the Reclamation map pack.

Desert Storm

A wide-open desert with strong BF1 Sinai Desert vibes. Every control point is packed with vehicles, perfect for big tank and walker battles.

What’s changed

• Fixed the sky brightness and colour saturation for a Belgrade-like look that’s easier on the eyes.
• More walkers, tanks and AGs, so most bots can jump into a vehicle.

Victory Village

The well-known BF Heroes map, now in vanilla BF2142 with decent bot support. Playable, with a few quirks.

yone’s Victory Village 2142 had bot support but often crashed on newer game versions, while matthysjordaan’s Victory Village (Fixed) loaded fine but lost the bots. We combined the two and added our own tweaks.

What’s changed

• Restored bot support.
• Removed buggy spawn points where bots died instantly.
• Cleaned up unnecessary files and dependencies.
• Both team bases can’t be captured, and the three central points start neutral.

Credits: yone and matthysjordaan for porting it from Battlefield Heroes. The originals are on ModDB and in the Reclamation map pack.

Sharqi Peninsula

The classic BF2 map, famous for its construction-site control point, fixed up for bots.

What’s changed

• No more crash in singleplayer or co-op, as BF2 vehicles are swapped for BF2142 ones.
• Adjusted the lighting so the map isn’t overly dark.

Bots still struggle with the stairs at the last control point, but it’s very playable.

Operation Amos

The popular BF2 map, fixed up for bots.

What’s changed

• No more crash in singleplayer or co-op, as BF2 vehicles are swapped for BF2142 ones.
• Repaired the bridges between the middle control points, so bots don’t get stuck in the water.

Bots still struggle with vehicles at the last control point, but it’s very playable.

Wall of Jericho

Known as Great Wall in BF2, a classic map set around a walled city in China.

What’s changed

• No more crash in singleplayer or co-op, as BF2 vehicles are swapped for BF2142 ones.
• Added bot support using the AI and pathfinding files from the original BF2 map.

Bots sometimes get stuck inside the walled city, so bot play is just okay. It’s still fun though, and a great spot for screenshots.
