After a long break (about a year) I recently started to play BF2 again.

Since yesterday I'm trying to play SF too but I just can't connect to a server. The server list shows a lot of them but if I doubleclick (or select and click "join" or whatever that button is called) virtually nothing happens. There's a short break of about half a second and than everything's as if I had never clicked.

BF2 and SF were still installed from last year, so I installed the 1.41 patch and it works just fine with vanilla. I can even start a SF single player game without any problems, so the game itself seems to work.

Any suggestions?

OK thank you.
I guess I'll try to reinstall it than... whenever I have a good mind to do so (currently I don't fancy it at all ).

reinstall the SF only, then repatch it all.

I have a C2D E6600 and I run BF2 great.  Try reinstalling SF and then repatching like the previous posters suggested.

I have the same problem, only it wont let me uninstall SF so I can re-install it. Gives me the message "LaunchAppAndWait failed with support\battlefield 2 special forces_code.exe". I got the game through the lame EA downloader thing, which only tells me its ready to play, so its not like I can even try and re-install over the top of the existing one.

I'm having the same problem -- when I try to connect to a server in special forces the server browser just blinks and nothing happens.

Has anybody found a solution to this, short of reinstalling?  I've been searching like crazy but no dice.

thanks
