This setup is extracted directly from a physical copy (i.e., game disc) published by EA Taiwan back in 2005. This special Standard Edition contains the following locales:
English, Chinese Simplified, Chinese Traditional, Czech, Danish, Dutch, Finnish, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Polish, Spanish, Swedish, Thai, Russian
Given that the setup only holds an early version (i.e.,
v1.01) of the game, you will have to follow the instructions on the next page to have the game patched to the latest version. If you're new and you don't know what we're doing here, we suggest always sticking to the primary download resources as they're the major references throughout our tutorials.
If you have concerns about the sources we provide, try installing an AntiVirus in advance or downloading the base game from other sources that you trust. It's very important that you feel comfortable with what you're doing here.
Note that this is not really a legit way to download the game. But this is really becoming the only option left to get the game nowadays apart from buying an old second-hand copy from Amazon that doesn't actually allow you to log in anymore.

The resources in this section are already patched to the latest version (i.e.,
v1.51).However, the files and sources here haven't been tested by us, so use them at your own risk.
If you choose to download the game from the following links, you may skip the instructions on the next page about patching the game to
v1.51. However, the cd keys listed in the remarks section that follows are for Standard Edition only, and will not work properly for the Deluxe Edition here. If there're no relevant instructions inside the given .zip, you may search in Google BF2142 Deluxe Edition Keys to apply the correct keys (but hard to find one to be honest).If you're new and you don't know what we're doing here, we suggest always sticking to the primary download resources as they are the major references throughout our tutorials.

The only way to obtain the game legally is to buy a used (i.e., second-hand) copy.
A used copy usually means the product key is already activated or expired.
For that very reason, we don't really recommend buying a second-hand copy, especially after the game's shutdown in 2013.
But you can still buy one if you want to at least show some support to the original buyer, or simply because of nostalgia.
Nostalgia is a good reason though. Many of our core members do have a physical copy just because we love the game very much. Some of us even got the disc in 2005.
As we always say, we are real Battlefield lovers, and that's why we made this website.
