BF2 - Special Forces - Installation problem

Featured Replies

After i needed weeks to install the BF2 1.3 Patch, i tried to install the addon yesterday.

 

Error Message: "Installation of Patch was not sucessful"

 

I have the same problems installing the addon, like i had, installing the 1.3 Patch.

 

I think i need some more weeks to install the addon.

 

At some other pc the installation worked very well.

You can pre-download it and I'm sure that's what he did. The actual release date is Novemeber 22 (Tuesday).

 

With the pre-download you are supposed to be able to download AND install it ahead of time so that the moment it is formally released you can begin playing.

 

I think that you have a much deeper problem Arnie. May be time to just clean off the old box with a format and reinstall.

I have the addon, believe me. Maybe like Klink said, some Stores in Europe have the possibility to release it earlier. On the 17th i had the game at my home.

 

Two of the single player maps look very cool. Its fun to hunt the enemy as a SAS in the night, with nightvision. There are also some servers for the addon around, but i couldn't play on them, because the pc at my girlfriends home is the only one where the game runs well, but we have only a dial up connection there. And like i said, at my home's main pc, i have the installation error.

hmmmm... maybe something stopping it ; add to folder not seen ; or seen but not required country or game version ; registry messed up from former probs ; something not letting it access registry ?

 

1-xp or other antivirus software preventing folder or registry writes and edits?

 

2-might it need pc online to internet at time but not seeing or firewall block?

 

3-is your game installed to default c:\... folder or different partition?

 

4-could multiple past patch install attempts have multiple registry entries meaning one in use was renamed by windows, like instead of registry "location" it is "location1" ?

Something interesting I found yesterday was that europe and other countries around there, have things way before we do here in the states. This is just an example but the razor cell phone. That has already been out in europe and the surrounding countries for about a 1.5 yrs now. They are usually 1-2 yrs. ahead of us in something such as cell phones, laptops, and other things. So I wouldn't be suprised if they released the game over there before it was release here.

Hey we just got the Razor cellphone here this week. We are behind too.

It's o.k. Europeans have been settled long before us. LOL.

Maybe although you were allowed to have it, you not allowed to install and/or activate it until release date ?
