Battlefield Bad Company 2 PC beta gets automatic update

The release yesterday of the multiplayer beta for Battlefield Bad Company 2 wasn't without issues. As we reported earlier this morning using the beta's server browser for the upcoming first person shooter caused the beta to crash to the desktop. Now a new automatic update to the game has solved that problem.

The small patch (which is also available to those players who downloaded the beta via Steam) also fixes a couple of issues with running the game on Windows XP as well as dealing with mouse sensitivity issues. Again you can download the full beta client right here at Big Download.

Battlefield Bad Company 2 PC beta swamping download sites

The release today of the Battlefield Bad Company 2 PC beta client happened on schedule at noon Eastern time. However publisher Electronic Arts decided to give the beta client to a select view download sites around the world ahead of time. The result? The client has been nearly impossible to download thanks to a massive surge of traffic by gamers who want to play the beta tor the multiplayer shooter from Digital Illusions.

The Battlefield Bad Company 2 web site has a list of mirrors for the multiplayer beta but they are all experiencing heavy traffic at the moment. There's no word yet if EA will open up the mirror list to allow for more download sites.
