[[RC]Hunter]

This is an official reply from Bazajaytee @ DICE about BF2´s Boost Packs activations.

This appears to be a major problem for some people so here is a step by step guide to activating booster pack content on Battlefield 2. This guide is based on a new user with no account in Battlefield 2 or at EA.com. If you have both a Battlefield 2 (Referenced as Step 2) and EA.com account (Referenced as Step 4) then start at Step 5.

1. Install Battlefield 2 and all booster packs you have

2. Load the game and create your account

3. Go to EA Video Games - Play Online PC Wii Xbox PS2 PS3 and DS Games

4. At the bottom of the screen you will see a REGISTER option, click it and complete the details.

5. Go to www.battlefield.com/activate and click on Battlefield 2 Complete Collection

6. Click on the link at the bottom of the instruction guide.

7. Add your install key into the box and submit

8. Log in using the account you created in Step 4

9. Go to https://account.ea.com/myacct/verify...ite=er&skin=er

10. Login with the account you made in Step 4.

11. Click on "Downloads Info" tab

12. Add the soldier you created in Step 2 into the boxes and submit

Your booster pack content is entitled. Go and play Battlefield 2.

This guide is for anyone that buys Battlefield 2 Complete Collection or a booster pack key (Special Forces, Armored Fury, Euro Forces) from a retailer. Buying booster packs from EA Store will entitle your account during the purchase but you will need to attach your Battlefield 2 soldier to your EA.com account (Step 5).

Note: The email address you use to purchase games on EA Store IS your EA.com account.
Linking your Battlefield 2 soldier to any other email address at EA will tell you that you need to purchase the booster packs when you try to play the maps.
