So, I have been trying to download the demo for a few hours, whenever I would download it the file would be corrupt.

I have tried FileFront, Gamespot and Download.com.

Is it me? Or is it something else.

I was going to do that, Harryz, but... I CAN'T WAIT.

Oh, and I think I got a working mirror, thanks to Nofx and Foxtrot.

Bittorrent:

http://www.3dgamers.com/dlexit/torrent/games/battlefield2/battlefield2demo.exe.html

Thats what I am using after failing with all the other sites a couple of times. I am getting pretty good rates and I have cranked my upload rate so other poor saps like me can get it faster.

Delete everything you have downloaded, search for battlefield and delete any demo files, clear your temp internet files, and then try to download from somewhere else.

I think it's working now, I just downloaded it from a link Nofx gave me.

It could of just been those sites.

I thought they were making a mistake when they didnt release it on fileplanet, which probably has more servers then anyone else. I know they have wait times but there bandwidth more then makes up for it. I couldent wait for it to come out on fileplanet though!

Nope, screwed up again at about 50 MB. I will try BearShare.

Try bittorrent man it has been working great I am now only 25 min away from finishing. If I play single player for a while I will leave it on and maybe increase your download speed by like 1kb/s.

Well FP paid off - 38 mins in total (25 waiting, 13 downloading), not corrupt, just about finished installing.

But there is only an american non-subscriber server at the moment

Hmm, I extracted and didn't press OK on teh error. I installed the entire demo except for ONE file.

"Objects_server.zip"

Someone, for the love of god, send it to me!
