Default bf 2 euro forces problem

when i bought the game battlefield 2 the user name "badcompany" was already issued to a user....so i used goodcompany

so the game bf2 and special forces works fine

when regestering with ea games the name "goodcompany" had allready been used too but not by me

so used a user name goodcompany7 "thought nothing of it"

BUT NOW downloaded euro forces had to use goodcompany7 name for download ..paid for via visa "the new upgrades wont work "

so am i fooked ?? as it says ive got the downloads on the pc but the new maps wont work

have i just paid for a bf2 users upgrades but not me

You still have to install the game from the EA downloader. Start up the downloader and see what it says. Failing that you can do a manual install if you have it on your pc.

Goto

C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\EA Downloader\cache\YOUREAUSERNAME\eagamesbf2-2006online_map_contentbf2euro

All the Euro Forces setup files are there. You can back them up to CD for future use.

So when it asked for your GAMESPYID you used 'goodcompany' not 'goodcompany7' right?

When using the EA downloader for BF2 there are two accounts you need:

- an EA account (this is in no way related to BF2), this tracks your purchases
- your BF2 ID, which they refer to as GAMESPYID

If you get the latter wrong, it can be changed within your 'EA downloader'.
