Servers?

Well I had a test quickly. Used the Origin version to connect to other overseas servers and guess what ?

I got an "Invalid CDKey" error and after that it closed my game, lol. So you can't connect to "old" retail based dedicated servers.

So it appears as if you can only join servers hosted with the Origin version (as it does give you the option to create a dedicated one) but I'm downloading the dedicated server files right now to setup my own server on my dedicated box to do some tests. :)

thats an old problem. i was always under the influence that it happened because there was someone in the game with the same cd-key?i.e. because of a keygen. i always just connected to games until i found one that worked. obviously i can be wrong because i havnt seen this new 'free' version though.
 
The 1s battlefield also still the best if you ask me. Wow this makes me lus to go install it agian when I get home.:D
 
Ok I'm unsure now. If I bought the original and still have it will I be able to play or do I need to download something else?
 
If anyone else encounters the "Invalid CDkey" error when trying to join a server, post here, I know how to fix it ;)
