After playing the game, BF2142 seems to be a lot better than BF2, and is one of the best PC FPSes I've played.
The vehicles are interesting and fun to use, but they're not too overpowered. Even the walkers and transports can be taken down by a single anti-vehicle rocket in the right place (Vents on the walker, cockpit glass on the transport) The unlock and customisation system is very good. Each 'kit' has three different weapons, which are all quite different. There is a wide variety of equipment, such as sentry guns and explosives. The only problem is that you have to work quite a bit to get these. The loading times are also far better. They're usualyl shorter than, say, Halo 2 loading times (Maybe it's only because I'm using low settings, which is all my graphics card can support). Spawn points on the titan means you don't get retards camping all the spawnpoints. Titan mode is far better than normal conquest mode, adding a new dimension to gameplay. Other interesting features include podbombing - you can destroy quite a lot of vehicles and any infantry just by landing on tehm with a drop pod. Unfortunately, the game still has invincible parachutes of infinite rigidity, meaning anyone flying into your parachute instantly dies (including teammates), and the ridiculous punishing system. I haven't experienced any lag at all, even on my slow 512kbps connection, including on titan mode, and previous problems with the titan moving (bodies falling through the floor before you can revive them) are going to be fixed with the new patch. However, the hitboxes, especially for the knife are a bit buggy. I haven't had the problem of not being able to hit people while shooting slowly either. It's probably because you're using the Machine guns, which aren't designed for single shots. They're meant to be wildy innacurate for the first few shots, and get mroe accurate as you shoot. It's so you don't use it as a 200-round assault rifle, and actually use it for providing covering fire as you're meant to. Jam it back in, in the dark.
