zofo there is a temp fix for your problem.

browse to My documents/bfbc2/gamesettings.ini and find the line that says: "RecentGames="

and remove whatever is there and make it so it reads "GameSettings=EA;"

fixed it for me.

Cool cheers Rocky, I shall try that when I get home, tbh I have been working on a website the last few nights so really haven't tried to tackle this problem all that much

[DevilsRefugee]

np m8 any probs hit me up on steam, working til 8 but ill be on after that

I tried that fix Rocky but no joy, I also tried opening the ports suggested but still no joy

Do you use a wireless router? Have you tried connecting your pc directly (not using any routers?).
Just an idea to eliminate that being the problem.
discussed on steam^

awwww

did you get it via steam?

I will have a look around and report back with anything I find. If you did get it via steam, get a support ticket in whilst i do my research

So on Zeus's advice (cheers dude for helping) I deleted my steam install and d/l the game manually, installed and still the same problems

I will try to bypass the router and see if its a port problem even though I tried all the port forwarding stuff they mentioned on the bc2 forums


I'm reading that people are putting their routers on DMZ to play this, fuckin nutters 



/edit

This is DICEs answer to my problem I think

"Connection to server has been lost"

    * This one is tricky. We have no solution yet.

Thats part of the message I get

[Zeus]

well at least we know its not your EA login as it worked on my PC.

As I said try it on your lappy - if it works on your lappy at home its your PC - some setting somewhere  - if it fails to join on lappy but works on works PC/Lappy its your router.

Its got to be something and nothing!

man i hope you can get it sorted, ive never played with you yet, would be nice to get a frag on.

This beta is not without problems, so roll on retail where 99% of the trouble should hopefully be gone and replaced by great goodness in terms of loads of new maps/modes/weapons and funny glitches!

p.s im making a bc2 promo, watch this space!

ive never played with you yet, would be nice to get a 'stiff' on.

Nothing like getting to to the point hay Rocky

You forget we played UT3 we r use to Glitches  but the game looks pretty polished to me already - Except the 'Zofo bug' ofc
