official Battlefield: Bad Company 2

The PB problem was actually that the master servers were updated to the newer PB version but everyone who runs a server had to update and reboot their server. People kept getting kicked because of a PB version mismatch. As soon as servers are rebooted the PB disconnect issue will go away.

I don't think that's it. I went to the same server that kicked me with the pb timeout after updating mine. It was probably 5 minutes between tries, and the second time worked perfectly. I kind of doubt they reset and got all the players back in that time

Servers went down again ... when I login now it says I am rank 1 and that I need to enter my CD Key again.

WOW. I mean, the times I can play are awesome. But this random disconnection issue/servers going down has to stop.

[Sethos]

Yeah, I was prompted for the CD-key as well, I didn't even give it second thoughts, it was just "Oh, more problems" and I quit the game.

Yeah, I figured it was server problems again so I quit as well. I hope in the next couple of weeks they do something to fix these issues. :(

Same here. I was playing for a good fourty minutes before I got kicked, and now it won't let me log back in. When I tried, sometimes it would give me the "can't connect" message, and sometimes it would ask me to enter my CD Key.

Shame, I was actually in a really good squad. Four people all helping each other in a public server. Can't say I've seen that a whole lot outside of TF2.

How many games do you need to associate through the Veteran system to get the M1, just one?

[DirtyLarry Veteran]

How many games do you need to associate through the Veteran system to get the M1, just one?

Yep, just 1 is my understanding.

[Pheee]

Yep, just 1 is my understanding.

And how does it work, maybe it is server issues right now, but I have Veteran Status 1, but does it just update automagically in BFBC2? or you have to do something wonderful?

[WastedJoker]

The M1 rifle isn't available on every map?

[Yusuf M. Veteran]

It should be available to you as soon as you become a level 1 veteran.

The M1 rifle isn't available on every map?

From my understanding, it depends on the server.

[Pheee]

From my understanding, it depends on the server.

I guess, I will see once servers are running, and when it updates stats again to see if its running.

[Sethos]

So I can confirm through the "Weapons and Gadgets" menu that my M1 is unlocked but I can't select it when In-game, just tried joining a handful of different servers

and it's not there on any classes, odd.

[SMELTN]

I haven't seen the M1 available since Wednesday. I have Veteran status of 4 and the first day had it just fine, all my friends have the same thing. Was available at the start, but has not been available since about Wednesday or so

[Sethos]

It's probably the cause of all the problems :rofl:

[SMELTN]

Stupid sig sites not working either. I wanted to make me a sig dang it

As far as Sethos comment on the worse game launch in history. America's Army 3 is the absolute worse launch ever. immediately after launch they fired the main dev team. The game was rushed to be released by The Army before it was finished (thats why the devs were fired. they didn't want it released till they got the major bugs fixed The bugs were too many to list. 6 months later some of these bugs still exist. even after the 3.0.7 patch. these problems we are experiencing are minuscule compared to the AA3 launch

[John Freeman]

Wasnt AA free?

Notice how I said in my gaming history, it wasn't an argument I made on behalf of everyone and every game.

Wasnt AA free?

Yes, paid for by the American tax payers.

Documents Folder > BFBC2 > Settings.ini > Set Bloom from "True" to "False".

There you can also adjust your Field of View ( FOV )

[Livin in a box]

I was just about to kill someone and it disconnected me. Not been able to get on ever since. Played a bit of the single player instead.

[Sethos]

Kept trying and finally found a server where I wasn't kicked and it was a ... standard server, god non-HC is so poor :|

[Huleboeren]

I love how explosive barrels/boxes take no damage from the 40mm nade that just blew right next to them lol - but one shot with a rifle and they go KABOOM :s
