Hi!Oh boy,I'm soo happy!!

I've got good news for all the German members here:

You can install AF BEFORE the countdown,completely legal without torrent or stuff like that.
It's actually so simple that most wouldn't get it.

Log in into your EA account and change your details from country Germany to United States.
Then log out,open up your EA downloader,log out there and back in and tada: ready for install....

Perhaps to ease the load on their servers. I can't even pull up the EA page.

Yes,the account you have to make if you wanna buy EF or AF,I registered when I got Euro Forces.
The account you need for the EA downloader,where you change your online nick and stuff like that.

Sorry,but I can't post a link at the moment,the site seems to be overloaded at the moment and I don't wanna post the wrong link.

But once you changed those details it all works,I already played one round online and checked out the maps in a local game.From a sniper's point of view these seem to be the best maps ever,I just hope enough heads pop up with all this heavy machinery around...

If you think about it, it doesn't take the load of their servers because you can download it but not install it. Very nice, uh?

Mj.Blindfisch, thanks for the hint i'll immediately give it a try.

The system clock trick didn't work,at least not yesterday.
It changed to install but when you clicked the button you got an error message telling you to set your clock.
Then I heard of a torrent,but didn't want to use it (illegal stuff when it comes to copyright,no thanks) ,then I tested it with changing the EA account details and finally it worked.

Dude, most of us downloaded it already - yesterday
We just could not play it - until someone came up with an excellent solution like this one.

does anybody know if they are gonna sell it via standard retailers, like they did with EF ? Or is it just Paypal/CC for AF this time ?

EDIT: Nevermind, I just found out that they are going to sell it via amazon and other retailers. Official release is supposed to be the 9th, that's tomorrow.

Donwload code only though.
