Volles FAQ

Is this a remake of Battlefield 1942?

No. This is the original game Battlefield 1942, for the first time available as a digital download on Origin.

How much does it cost?

To celebrate the 10th anniversary of Battlefield 1942, we are offering this full game at no cost. We want everyone to be able to see where it all started.

Does this free digital download version include an of the expansion packs originally released for Battlefield 1942 (The Road to Rome and Secret Weapons of WWII)?

No.

Can I play online against players who have the original disc-based version?

Unfortunately, no. This Origin digital download version can only be played against other players who are using the same version. But since it’s free for everyone, everyone can download their own copy of the game. This version of the game will only show applicable (new) servers in the server browser.

What are the differences between this version and the original disc-based version of Battlefield 1942?

No practical differences. We have done some under the hood work to make this game from 2002 work as a digital download title on Origin.

Can I run a server for the game?

Yes. Run the “DedicatedServer.exe” file that will be visible in your installation directory.

I have problems connecting to online games

Please note that a sudden surge of players into Battlefield 1942 may make online play temporarily unstable. If this happens, please try again later.

Can I use this version of the game together with old Battlefield 1942 mods?

This is untested and we cannot guarantee any mod functionality.

Will I need to patch this version of the game?

No. This version includes any updates needed. If we were to update this version of the game in the future (this is not likely), we will do so via Origin.

I have a question that is not answered here. Where do I go?

Please note that while we are proud to present this game to all of our fans after 10 years, we are not able to actively support it from a customer support standpoint. Please direct any technical questions to the EA Answer HQ forums at this URL: http://answers.ea.com/ where we will set up a specific Battlefield 1942 section.

Sprich: Es müssen auch extra Server für die digitale Version gestellt werden?

Zum aufwärmen:

Schade. Wie sieht es denn dann mit den ganzen Mods aus?

[-=Punkbuster=- 166]

Gute Frage. Müssen wir aber in den News ergänzen. Selbst wenn Mods lauffähig werden, dann nur als "Parallewelt" in Origin. Schade eigentlich.

No.

Schade , hoffendlich kommen die Addons noch als DLC.

[SergejFaehrlich 504]

hmm, sollte bf42 auch ohne origin starten, könnten einige modteams standalones von ihren mods anbieten

die "free-version" läuft sicher ohne keys, ich frage mich, wie das da mit bannen bzw cheatern funktionieren soll? vllt wird auch pro user einfach ne UID generiert oder so, die zeit wirds zeigen

[pnshr 1433]

läuft sicher ohne keys

nö, in origin ist ein key drin.
