I Just bought Battlefield Bad company 2. Downloaded beta and i wanted to play a game. It does nothing it says connecten lost. or cant find connection but i am connected to internet.

Is this a common problem. How can i fix this?

If you are using Windows 7 make sure you go to the BFBC2 folder and run the bfupdater.exe in Administrator mode. That fixed it for me

If you are looking for a new BC2 clan & you live on the west coast, you can apply for my clan @ vagrantclan.com then click "join vagrant". We have our server already bought and will be hosted in Seattle so we our trying to get as many people to join us on vent. We are focused on being a gaming community rather than a competetive clan so if this sounds good to you we will be happy to have you around, mind you we are 18+ only.

Alright i understand this but i dont know how to go in safety mode to run as administrator. I Got a new computer since one month and never used safety modus.

But i only got 1 account on windows 7 and i think i am the administrator.

When i see my bootscreen wich button do i need to press. Cause i see F10 System recovery F1 Boot Menu and ESCAPE. But none of these getting me to use safety modus.

Just go to the file he talked about and right click on it. From the menu select Run as Administrator. No need to go into safe mode.

No no. Go to your desktop like normal. Open up My computer and browse to your bf beta folder and right click on the icon and click on Run as Administrator

Awesome video on the last page. I love watching a good frag video, and having Nine Inch Nails is definitely a plus in my books :).

I finally got around to playing the beta (PC) today, and good God did I play badly. This is my first Battlefield game since 2142 (I missed out on the first Bad Company entirely) and the years I spent playing DoD, CoD, and TF2 definitely dulled my senses somewhat. I'm slowly getting better, though. I'm playing as a medic quite a bit, since that LMG is really easy to rack up kills with, lol. I'm just making sure that I don't resuscitate people at bad times, as per the comments made a few pages back :).

I was pretty happy to see people working together, though. Seeing a group of infantry move as a unit towards one of the objectives was definitely satisfying. After playing CoD4 and MW2 for so long, I was beginning to forget that such a thing was possible on public servers :).

Ratio is a bit lower, but I've done better that that 2k :D

I posted this already. Doesn't show up anymore though, so I'm posting it again. Combat score isn't all that but the ratio is WIN.

But still. Achieving high k/d ratio is much easier than get a higher combat score.

Especially with a vehicle. Got this without even trying :D :

    • Microsoft will soon allow some users to block Copilot from analyzing their Office files

      This seems backwards. You should have to explicitly authorize files for outside use. It shouldn't be the default.

      Wow you are right, I never even noticed this until you said it! (870E Aorus Master) Before testing this card I had a TP-Link tx401 10GbE PCIe card in that slot (now using XikeStor 310 Thunderbolt to Ethernet adapter).

      Lack of 5.1 makes this a no sale. What I really wish creative would make would be a USB version that supports 5.1 analog audio for speakers, can switch to headphone mode, and matches the specs of their top tier cards. The current X870E AMD motherboards dont have a great option for adding a PCIE x1 card without cutting down pcie lanes to the graphics card.
    • The Microsoft Office feature that time forgot

      By Usama Jawad96 · Posted

      The Microsoft Office feature that time forgot by Usama Jawad I have been actively using Microsoft Word for the past couple of decades in academic, professional, and personal capacities. Although I used it through the perpetual version of Office apps at the start, I have been an active subscriber of Microsoft 365 Family subscription for over five years now. This means that my Word installation is regularly updated with new features, some of which I don't really like, but that's beside the point. As new features get continuously added, old ones that used to be a staple of Word have started to take a backseat. While I was reminiscing over my Windows experiences from my childhood today, I suddenly remember one such capability that I heavily used in my younger years but have not really touched in over a decade, and haven't seen in documents created by others either. That feature is WordArt. Just to clarify, WordArt is not a Microsoft product specific to Word, and is included in other Office apps like PowerPoint and Excel too. However, Microsoft Word is the app that I used Word Art in heavily, while making assignments or other deliverables for school. If you're unaware, WordArt offers a collection of styling techniques for text, introducing 3D effects like shadows and reflections in the text. It used to be one of the coolest things ever when I was at school and me and my classmates would often compete to ensure that our assignment's title in WordArt was truly the best and stood out above the rest. See some examples of WordArt, still present in the latest versions of Word below: Although WordArt is undeniably cool, it has taken a bit of a backseat, and has been relegated from the Home tab to the Insert toolbar, along with a bunch of other utilities, making it very easy to miss. This isn't exactly surprising because WordArt doesn't really have a place in academic and professional documents anymore, and while I have seen some creatives using it while developing promo material, even that sector has gravitated more towards dedicated graphic designing tools in the past years. For the vast majority of us, WordArt doesn't really exist, and that's alright. At least, it's still an option that can allow us to reminisce our childhood or even make some quick text stylization, if we really need it. Perhaps its usage has waned over time or the novelty has worn off, but I haven't even seen children use it in their academic assignments anymore. In fact, many don't even know that it exists. Maybe that's the fate of every beloved feature. What once felt cutting edge eventually becomes a relic, quietly tucked away as tastes, trends, and technology move on. WordArt may no longer dominate school assignments or decorate the covers of classroom projects, but for those of us who grew up with it, it remains a colorful reminder of a time when making text glow, bend, and cast giant shadows felt like the height of creativity. Hidden behind a few clicks in modern Word, it still survives not as a productivity tool, but as a small piece of computing nostalgia that refuses to disappear.
