About a week 1/2 or 2 weeks ago I tried to get on our server on BC2 and the server name was grayed out and wouldn't let me click on it to enter. A lot of other servers are doing that as well. I can still get on a few but not many. I talked to Cannon last tuesday and he said there was a patch or update or something that came out and that's probably why I can't get one now. Well, I looked in every place I could think of online and found that yes, there was an update but yet I can't find anywhere to download this update. I even tried to re-install the game hoping it would update on it's own during the install but no luck. Anyone have any clue where I can get this from?

BFBC2 should auto update when you log in. That's how I got the last patch anyways....I didn't go looking for it, it came looking for me!

Yeah, that's what Cannon said too but it's not updating or asking me to update anything.

Finally got it. I found a bfbc2updater.exe file on my "c" drive and ran that. It updated and everything came up just fine when I got on the game. I'm still not sure why mine didn't update on it's on like everyone else though.

Hey Swampy, I was just thinking that you should look for the bfbc2updater.exe file on your "C" drive and run that to see if it will update for you.
