not quite sure exactly how to do it - but basicly, if you have owned any previous Battlefield games - you can register somewhere on the EA website & it gives the you the M1.

it says on the moving text at the bottom of the screen when you log in - but of course the master server is still down....

but google 'BFBC2 veteran M1' maybe it might turn up something

----

.:edit:.

visit this link here & fill in the info of the previous BF games owned etc etc 'veteran.battlefield.com'


I'm gonna try that, thank you Freedom. :toast:

Wow yeah EA master server IS DOWN! They are putting out a new update for all servers so there are no more connection issues. This is also on the same day we get the Europeans joining us to cause EVEN MORE problems.

But BC2 has no problems and it's a 9.5 out of 10. All the reviews never reported any problems :roll:.


Sorry, had to. A small minority is obviously in denial.

well i have both,... and right now the hard copy version is running connected to our server we bought... and the other steam 64bit win version i cant connect to EA

Im guessing if they want to do a server upgrade, they will disconnect people... and the easiest way to do that would be to turn off the largest majority which would be steam... they know all those keys... hence me getting booted... whereas the other pc that my GF is using is still connected... was installed off a ran dom physical copy

where did you see that?

Yah, can you link to source? 3AM saturday? Seriously?

I mean if that fixes all connection issues, I guess I am ok with it... but still... I was looking forward to actually playing more than a half hour today for the first time. :(

Ah well... Guess it is time to watch The Office.

What happen is that those in EU, etc got screwed today because this is there release day.
USA Release Day = Game Stopping Bugs
EU Release Day = Master Server offline (meaning no one can get online to play).

I assume that things should improve within the nest 12 hours or so. Hopefully by then all major bugs are fixed (IE: Master Server related). But time will tell. I wonder if those who chose online DRM if they are able to play the single player? Can anyone answer that?

It's being reported in some foreign forums. Here is one link

On another note, anyone know if there is an online leaderboard? I wanted to check how I was doing... I am Rank 14 right now. I was looking forward to making it to 18 before I went to bed tonight.

Last count over on the EA UK BC2 forums were 1200+ users. Then all of a sudden they disabled seeing that feature.

We (the UK) will not allow it... we are spamming the servers for the next 12 hours... give up now it is pointless :)
Resistance is futile... all your base belong to us

taken from a DICE rep off the EA forum...

The EA backend which controls most EA titles is suffering from an outage at the moment. The EA Online teams are working to find the cause and get servers back online as soon as possible.
