Who said this ? We never did. It's a side-effect that BC2 is working without any registry or license: Because it never existed and the CD-check was disabled with patch R11. We weren't involved in that.

Origin and licenses. Another step up. Understood ?

The client got a license check implemented or better the emulator does still check the license file on your PC.


I bought the game so I don't have any problem with that. My questions are:

How can you check the license since you are not part of any EA/DICE team? And most importantly: (and with all your respect for what you've done so far), how can we trust you that you won't hack our legitimate bought license/origami account?

Again, I'm not here to troll: I just care about my origami account.
And please don't answer "If you don't trust us, don't use Venice." :roll:

We don't check your license. Our client is agnostic to your licenses.
However, the game itself isn't, as a valid license is required to even start it.

How does the game check for DLC ownership if the server is running on Venice/Rome's server (If it's actually possible to answer at this stage or at all) or is the version you will release in Closed Beta going to contain only the vanilla maps? I am just asking since I own B2K since I got the LTD Edition and just wanted to know if I will be able to play only Vanilla or B2K as well if I do in fact get accepted :) :)

As previously stated, the client does not perform any ownership checks, that's why the DRM is there for.
By default, all expansions are enabled, but you still need to have their files.

After the submission do we get a confirmation message or straight a confirmation that we successfully qualified for the beta? I just got a message and i dont know what exactly think of it.

Origami isn't even launced when you launch the client with the hook.
