Tried again and its going kinda fast now.
Its a biggie at 1,106 MB
Pug where does it put it as it asked for no download location. Also I looked through the EA downloader and theres no downloaded game section etc. So this is kinda like steam?? You can only operate the game with EA downloader installed??
Reason I say this is. If you reinstall EA downloader ( I tested ) It says 'You may not be able to play games that you have downloaded'
Bah!

I used gamers hell under 2 hours to get . you may come across this problem easy to fix just drop file in , i did . EA sent out an email with a message for all those users current playing the Battlefield 2142 demo or will be playing the demo. In an effort to reduce download times the Battlefield 2142 Demo does not contain a DirectX installer. Please be advised that in order to play this demo players must have Directx9 installed and should ensure that the d3dx9_29.dll www.dll-files.com/search.php?s=d3dx9_29 is present in your C:WINDOWSsystem32. We look forward to playing online with everyone. See you on the Battlefield im MrPieuk .

Well when you load it up there are loads of movies and a tutorial vid. We dont wanna see these. So after abit of looking around the folders I figured out how to stop them. Program Files/Electronic Arts/Battlefield 2142 demo/Mods/Bf1242/Movies Delete all 5 in there. Then when BF2142 Demo loads it goes straight to the login page. This will work with the full game aswell. I am Hel1con When I tried to be .04 it says your name contains invalid text. I have noticed something though. It isnt the strain on your PC like BF2 was. The BF2 demo took like 5 mins after closing it down before your PC is usuable. Well seems they fixed that at least. Looks very nice the game if you ask me.

Seems they are working on finding the reason why we get random disconnections from the EA Server.
Happened to me 3 times lastnight.
