Yeah, I just bought this game like 3 days ago. Probably one of the best Battlefield games next to BC1. It was practically the reason for buying a brand new computer since I think the PC version is a lot more fun. I haven't been able to log on all day so far. I guess I'll see if it's up when I get off work tonight...
From what I've heard from Steam - somebody was talking to an EA rep and they have said:
"they are working on it right now and will try to have a solution to it soon"
How soon is soon? I'm getting withdrawal symptoms from not shooting anybody :P
- @ctuclifford Yep! I'm getting the same symptoms. I hope they will fix this as soon as possible. 😞
Anyone managed to log in yet? Can someone post as soon as theirs is working?
Not done yet.
Sadly, I remember that day when I couldn't log into online servers (Codemasters) in Racedriver:GRID. It was roumors at the beginning that hackers got access and codies must maintain their security protocols, and... well... it turned out GRID wouldn't come back into their servers at all. Whole community had to install some prosthesis like Tunngle and play this way...
One would think that EA would post something on the net since we are the ones that purchase these games and future games.
i hope they solve it soon ☹️ here in italy the same problem
"soon" meaning 3 days later, that's how long this has been going on for can't log in for 3 days, unexceptable.
Hello. I can't login on my soldier in BFBC!! PLS help me!!
you cant login?? i dont believe you! hahaha
Agree that EA or Origin are dropping amount of servers to possible make room for Battlefield 4.
Disagree! That makes no sense at all, stop rumour mongering!

I hate to "rumor monger" here but I have a few questions.
EA has stated in their official release that a disc array failed. They would obviously have backups for this as any IT department would do. So my questions are if this is not to make room for BF4 then why:
1. Are there no backups?
2. If there are backups, why have they not been applied?
3. Why are chat reps telling people it will be corrected soon when this is obviously not the case?
4. Why hasn't EA made another official announcement on the progress of the "repair"?
5. Why is Bad Company 2 the ONLY AFFECTED game?
Microsoft some years ago had a Database crash and all data was lost for several hundred thousand Microsoft accounts. Microsoft made a statement and had the accounts restored from a backup in 4 hours ('ish). Why is it so hard this time?
The more EA says it will be corrected soon, and the more silence we have from EA, makes a lot of people believe that EA is gearing up for BF4 and had to make room. While this may be temporary, why haven't they said as much? This stinks to high heaven of EA not wanting to spend money on server upgrades so they do what they can with what they have, and if a bunch of BBC2 players lose their accounts then "Oh Well".
Can someone update the wiki page of battlefield 2 BC page about this major crash.
Link below:
- Please link the supposed "official release"? Far as I know all they've confirmed is that they are aware of the issue.
I Wonder if someone messed up some dastardly data migration and didn't copy everyone over,
"I hate to "rumor monger" here but I have a few questions.

will get is at level 100, oops, forgot not have level 100, EA incompetent, simple mistake and hard to fix.
