My Battlefield 2 Special Forces is stuffed, please help!

[tvitkh]

ok so i recently got battlefield 2 for xmas & now iv got special forces for a birthday present, & i was wanting to ask a few questions about some problems im experiencing with it.

For a start, i can no longer play wake island in multiplayer bcause it says i have modified content,
so does bf2:SF's count as modified content?
because thats all i can think of that would have does it.

& anothr thing is, my batlefield 2 SF will only work on single player, because my multiplayer cd key is wrong/stolen or whatever.

Ive read your main post & tried that too, but however the SF is still an apparent illegal key.

Is it possible that i can use my normal Battlefield 2 key for Special forces too?

so im mainly i was also wondering if it can be replaced please?

If your key still doesn't work, contact Ea customer support and get a new one.

You only need 1 patch, v1.2:

thanks..
& no it was just in its plastic case, no wrapping or anything, they even come from the shop like that tho too..

just the average PcGame, grey, open up-mutiple cd, (Dvd sized) case.

Retail games normally come with at least a small plastic seal/sticker that has to be broken to open the DVD case for the first time.

Gee..great gift

You should contact EA to have that CD key replaced then.

Re: My Battlefield 2 Special Forces is stuffed, please help!

lol, yeah i know..

yeah ok, thanks very much, :)

but do they have an online way of getting in contact with them, other than haveing to write & snail mail?

& does it always cost the money, if you know what i mean, i reckon they should do it for free, we already buy theyre games & then u cant play them because of something that was theyre own fault & so you have to pay more money, also for something that probably wont work :P

thanks tho, dont get me wrong, just that ea **** me off :)
