That sounds a bit lame, I thought EA Downloader users and hard copy users would be at the same version number after the patch :confused:

"Players who have the Windows security update KB917422 installed may suffer from an application error when running Battlefield 2142. This error can be solved by uninstalling the KB917422 update."

And what does the Windows security update KB917422 do?

well i got it working i had to put the patch on again and its working fine ive played about 3 maps and it only crashed once with a funny sound like a crunchingly sound then a couple of beeps then it froze

ive got sound settings set to ultra high so ull turn it down to high just in case my audigy 2 zs dont support it.

Anyway im loving the game im getting quite a few battle pins about 2 on each map ive got an award for 5 hs in a round and another one for doing lots of sniper kills. ive got a demo pack which i unlocked for getting a medal for ground support, im hoping to get the new sniper rifle today

Bakes i used to get that with bf2 with my old audigy 2zs a crunching sound, that was on high sound.

Psypher5 · 19 Oct 2006 at 15:32

Still nothing for me

Why hast the great internet mail order god forsaken me?!?!?!

Well received my copy today but it seems to not connect to the EA servers so I am gutted. Not sure if any of you have managed to get the game working but I guess I can wait another day. Plus with my free rank ups from the BF2 Vets program and the place I brought it I just can't wait to get into the thick of it.
