check the other threads about this. it is easily fixed with gamemaster. just replace the exe file you can download from their website.

If you are too lazy to download one tiny file, then you don't deserve to play online anymore. Just go play flash games on your web browser. If you want the netplay to function like it used to, download GameMaster https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/5639348/GameMaster/battlefront2_files_v0.1.zip
Unzip the file BattlefrontII_client_english.exe and put this in your Star Wars Battlefront II/GameData folder, and then make a shortcut to it, and you must start the game with this shortcut (very important).

Gamespy servers are down for good. If you watch to use multiplayer check out
http://gameshare.co/gamemaster
or
http://freegst.org/
Both only require you change your exe file in your GameData folder with their own, which just sets it to use their masterserver instead of gamespy's nonexistent one. Check both out, see what servers each version has, pick the one you want. (I currently have both downloaded and just switch between the two depending on what server I want to play on)
If you just dont trust the altered exe's, game master gives instructions on how to simply edit your own.

yea crying on here while saying you dont feel like downloading something makes me wonder why people waste their time even talking to you.

we are not missing much. last time ive checked (last night Europe), there were only 6 people playing.

3 on a locked server (wtf, why?)
3 on a server without cpus (i got kicked for being a jedi)

I think some of the problem with multiplayer is there are four seperate copies I know of:

1. Retail, non-bundled

2. retail, fan favorites one

3. Steam

4. retail, best of star wars (I forget if it is this or battlefront 1)

And I think the all have sperate servers. (becasue I have Fan favorites one pack, and a friend had just plain retail and we couldn't play on a server together.)

Relax not-Brian Johnson. Why not have a look at GameRanger and follow the set of instructions in order to have MP up and running GameSpy already had their servers cut off as it was expected. Problem solved.
