After you install the Update 3,
you need to go to
control panel_Programs-Add or Remove Programs (in win XP)
or
Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Programs and Features (in win Vista/7/
find the Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2012 Update 3 in the Program list, and click the "REPAIR" button.
Repair the Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2012 Update 3 ,
REBOOT
start PR and game on.
We are not sure why this is occurring with the update 3, and it's way outside of our control.
To install or download the .NET Framework from the Microsoft Download Center, follow these instructions. You can also use the links in the table to download the .exe files directly.
1.
Open the download page for the .NET Framework version you want to install:
◦
.NET Framework 4.5.1 for all operating systems (web installer or offline installer)

I have tried absoulutley everything. Downloading the patches in certain orders, rebooting, trying again. The Mod is broken and unplayable, which is such a let down for me. I was so exited to play. someone please help
I'm having the same problem, I have windows 8.1 64bit and installed the visual c + + 2012 x86 and x64 but it did not work, please is there any way to solve it??? I'm desperate to play!!
You need the x64 version if you are on
Windows Vista 64 bit
Windows 7 64 bit
Windows 8 64 bit
Windows 8.1 64 bit
You then install it, then re-launch the installer and choose repair. A restart is unnecessary. Blame MSFT for the double install to fix the registry entries.
I got it to work with other means. If somone is having the same problem and none of the other fixes are working, it will help to try this -
Step 1. Uninstall Visual C++ 2012 off your computer, using the control panel so you can check if you have two versions of the same one. Other years can stay on
Step 2. Mount the PR game installer. This is downloadable off the PR website, hope you saved it from earlier
Step 3. Go to the Dependencies folder that is on the PR iso.
Step 4. Install the proper version of vcredist
Neither of the two methods worked, even installing from. Iso of the game or from the site, this problem happens only with those who have windons 8.1? Someone who has windons 8.1 could play without problems?
I have Win 7 x64
I just bought BF2 on a sale for this mod and Im trying everything so this mod to work for hours
none of the methods above have made a change it still asks for the update
