BF2 Help

Post by Major Havoc » Wed Jun 29, 2005 4:21 pm

How to play without an internet connection ?

Whenever BF2 loads up it justs comes onto the Login Screen
Is there a switch I have to add to the Desktop shortcut to play without an internet connection ?

Am I missing something obvious ?

Please Help
Cheers

You're not using the 'Play BF2 online now!' shortcut instead of the 'Battlefield2' shortcut?

Perhaps try ejecting the disc and letting it autorun.

Failing these basics, you're in territory unbeknownst to me...
Don't make me destroy you.

You have to create an Offline account in the "Manage Accounts" option.

Then when BF2 loads up, you can select that account and click "Login" without the need to actually talk to the Accounts Server.
I do it all the time.

Unfortunately, the Offline account ddoesn't inherit settings, so you have to set it up from scratch.
