So, got the EA Battlefield 2142 demo on Monday and installed it. I managed to find a few minutes tonight to give it a go.
Run the demo, watch the cool video….”this is going to be awesome”.
“Create an account”, “ok, I suppose that’s reasonable.”
“contacting EA Master Server”
What the hell.
“contacting EA Master Server”
Dammit. Turn off anything using the internet.
“contacting EA Master Server”
I then turned to the web, having played 0 minutes of another wonderful EA product to find that there are two possible causes.
1. The servers are overloaded
2. The game can’t reach the internet through my network and ADSL router.
I don’t want to grace (1) with any sort of argument. EA is the biggest gaming company in the business, it has billions of dollars worth of hardware sitting around. I’d like to say that it is freakin’ unbelievable, but it is all too believable.
If (2) is true, then again I fail to be surprised. I think BF2 was released way too early, was too buggy and not a quality product. I predicted the same of 2142, and at the blimmin’ first screen the programming broke down.
My browser, email and hundreds of other programs (including BF2) manage to find the web, so there’s is no reason why this program shouldn’t.
All up, it doesn’t change anything. I wasn’t going to buy the game at launch and I’m still not.
EA, you employ some good people. Give them time and let them perform their jobs properly you tossers.
Update: Thanks to some of our commenters we have some information on the ongoing problems people are experiencing related to servers being taken offline for maintenance. Browse down and read the comments for the full picture, but here’s the gist of it:

EVERY Tuesday***** What does this mean to me: The BF2142 gamer? *****
– Basically you can’t connect to BF2142 to play online games.
– If you’re on a server at the time that maintenance is scheduled then you will recieve a “Connection to EA Master Server lost†message.
– Any stats/awards gained in a round prior to the disconnect will be lost. You’ll have to go earn them again.Extracted from (http://forums.bf2s.com/viewtopic.php?id=52141)
