Are you enjoying Battlefield: Bad Company 2 at the moment? The game was released this week in the US and UK, with EA no doubt preparing for a huge boost in numbers during the first weekend since its release.
After spending a few hours with the game today, I have to admit that the gameplay is really enjoyable, loving every minute of it – although I have been experiencing a few problems today with the game.
While I was mostly able to enjoy a stable connection to the game, after a period, I was disconnected from the servers and was then greeted with the ‘cannot connect to EA servers’ message. When it eventually came back up, I found that some of the XP I had earned in the previous game, had not saved, while some other stats had reset.
I have to say that I’m currently enjoying the multiplayer experience better than I thought I would be, that is coming from a self-confessed Modern Warfare 2 nut.

You are not alone, The EA servers happen to be the worst of the lot.
Problems started around 3pm EST i think the server is back up but its unstable major lag spikes. I wonder if this has anything to do with the game releasing in Europe today.
i have been having problems and so have friends, staying connected
.
hopefully it'll get sorted as the time i have had on servers have been a larf
For sure I still can't connect to the server… my stats were completely reset earlier today as if I haven't played a game yet… after about an hour I logged back in and some of my stats were reinstated but not completely, after a little game play I was booted from the game and now i am waiting for the servers to come back up again…a few days ago after playing for an hour or so I was booted from another game and my modem was not able to access the internet for about an hour, I thought it was an issue with my provider but I have seen some others have experienced this same thing too… I like the game but this server thing is getting old
Servers are down. They went up for a little while then shut down again
Yep, I keep trying to get into a game but it gets stuck at the "Searching for Games, Please Stand By" message and its taking a while for it to do "Updating Stats" message and i also when i first turned it on today it took me back to level 1 but then when i reset my xbox it went back to level 10.
Multiplayer wont connect. fail
Same thing happened to me!
I have been trying to play for the past 3-4 hours and have only got into the servers once or twice. I am currently playing on an xbox 360. They have a notice saying that they are experiencing "connectivity issues" and are "working with EA" to solve the problem.
All my stats reset on the 360 back to square one :/
Then i was playing a game with a friend and he was gaining stats while i was not, we left that game and tried again, it all seamed to be working fine, until we were dropped from the game, upon checking the previous players list on XBL it appeared that everybody in that game, was now sitting at the main menu.
What a surprise this is the third battlefield game now i have had trouble with on release, same thing happened with BC1, same thing happened with 1943, wish i had of waited for the game to drop in price like i was planning to do in the first place………..
