Help with Bad Company 2 keys!!!

KingPing · Mar 7, 2010

I pre ordered the game and steam gave me two keys,

Battlefield: Bad Company 2 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Battlefield Bad Company 2 promo key xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx

"If you received a 'Promo Key', please register this key with EA as well. The 'Promo Key' unlocks additional items in-game"

Ok, but how?

Thanks!!!

Don't worry, we are sure you would have figured it out eventually.

yea like he said, dont worry about it. i ordered it on steam as well and didnt even know i got the promo key until someone asked if i had those weapons then i felt like a idoit

I figured it out, but I did type it wrong the first time or two. If the code has "-" in it, they are required and you need to enter them as well. Heads up for others. This applies to either the Redeem code or CD key or both.

I hate this online activations, i always feel that i put something wrong and by by 50 bucks!

but now it works

thanks all! :toast:

PS: looking forward to an old school dedicated servers patch for BC2, i dont like this pseudo dedicated servers they implemented. I always have high ping in all games that use this system

do you have to enter the - things for the cd key as well as the unlocks code for the guns? cause i just entered the cd key without any - and there are no servers in the lobby thing

TheLaughingMan · Mar 8, 2010

My last post. Yes you have to use the "-"

Yea same here man, don't sweat it. I couldn't enter my damn code until I figured out I was entering the wrong code!! :mad:

It took me like 2 hours until I got my pre-order extras

I had a problem with entering the VIP code on my sons 360. But after usings capital letters and '-' it worked fine
