just download and install through eadownloader and off you go, no cd key

ok, so how will they connect my "veteran" name I already registered, to the EA downloader account ?

I'm saying so, because much like everybody in here, I bought a retail BF2 game !

I don't think it's quite as easy as that otherwise what's stops you from downloading it on multiple computers?

I do believe that the file comes down encrypted and then you will be supplied with a key (your key) to install it on the 17th. I may be wrong though.

It probably matches it to your EA account. As for your vet. status, just login with the name you registered.

Vet status I think you need to do the same as if you were retrieving an account by email in BF2. Just log in with your EA/Gamespy account email address and I think it'll retrieve the name you reserved.

Sounds reasonable anyway..... what's the bets I'm wrong and lots of people are gonna find the names they reserved and then told everyone about have been squatted.

EXACTLY as I suspected @&#%^*#%^*#

My BF2 username is rouvio. This username was given the "veteran" thingy.
I tried to login using this username to the 2142 demo servers - USERNAME NOT IN DATABASE  or something close to it..

Whats up with that ?

You instead use your gamespy EA login and password. Not your BF2 login.

Any one going to upload the Demo to the BF2S FTP Section for general consumption?

Right for the full game because you have to download it. Hence you get the key via email. The demo shouldn't require a key.

It doesn't. When you order BF2142 from EA DLer the demo's file should be located toward the bottom of the DLer's application. Look there.
