...Yep. The stats show the number of servers, players in game and players online, so what's wrong?
My antivirus is disabled and my firewall is off.

If the game trys to connect to EA servers, the dinput8.dll is not loaded properly.
Re-downloaed th b564 version and make sure you place it in the root folder of the game.
If it still doesn't work, your antivirus is probably blocking the file.

EDIT: Nevermind, sorry for my stupid question.

Damn. Still not working. What do you mean by root folder? I've just placed it in the game folder (where all the stuff for the game is located). Do you mean I should put it in a specific directory?

The folder where the BFBC2_Game.exe is. If it doesn't work, check your antivirus.

I've got Avira as my antivirus. I haven't had any trouble with it and it's not blocking any files.
