This is why warez is good , no where on the ea site during there struggle to get you to buy the game do they tell you what is in the read me of Special Forces addon.
now i know this will be fixed but what good is an addon if they orgianl game doesnt work online afterwards.

Quote:
IMPORTANT MESSAGE REGARDING EXPANSION PACK AND MULTIPLAYER
When Battlefield 2: Special Forces is installed, a new update is applied. However,
with this new content it is not possible to play on the Internet or LAN with
Battlefield 2 1.03 users.

To be able to play together with Battlefield 2 core users, you need to have
update 1.1 or later.


yea, so after checking it out i went to play some orginal BF2 and could not connect. i uninstalled SF addon and updated back to the current 1.03 and still no go so now i have to R&R the orgianl bf2.

Fuck you EA Wonder how soon this 1.1 they are talking about will be ava. are is the 1.1 just going to be for the people that have the sf addon..

im i just an idiot are did this happen to you? and theres no need to reply just to call me an idiot ok.

Crying or Very sad

One silly question, why is it called ADDON instead of Expansion pack or something like that?

Do you have a cracked version? if so your exe and other files have been modified so the patch will fail.

My version is not cracked... that's the thing...
However, i do have patch 1.03 installed - and for that I have only needed a mini image to get the game to work.
Should I reinstall the game without the 1.03 patch?

How typical of EA, releasing a beta version of few modded maps under the name of "Expansion Pack".

Nice addon, installed it and saw that it was "updating" my 1.3 to 1.1? or is it 1.03 to 1.1.
Anyway after installing the game succesfully i tried to start it, black screen x2 the CTD...
Tried going through the settings in the BF2 folders, i know i got some problems before with BF2 but the game still didn't start up.
And that's not all, now my BF2 which is original doesn't work either.
x2 times black screen and CTD.
Tried to patch BF2 back to 1.3 but it didn't help.
Anyone got any ideas?

Edit: Uinstalled both games then reinstalled and it worked, but i still have to patch BF2 with 1.3 to se if it works that way.
Worst addon ever...

The stupid game wants to install the addon to C:\, and requires 4,4Gigs free on the C-drive, that's beyond what I can free up, so I'm scrapping this.


Yes, yes I'm back.
Somewhat.

It doesn't ask you where to install, it just assumes it can unpack everything on your C-drive, and when you don't have enough space, it quits.

Bloody n00bs.
