Yesterday, one of the my friend just got interested in Project Reality due to Squad getting more attentions, but having a hard time to install Project Reality because it seems pretty difficult to find Bf2 since Steam doesn't sell Bf2 anymore and pirating Bf2 feels bit too risky. So is it possible for me to let my friend use my Steam account to get Bf2 and get Project Reality Mod and run perfectly normal? (My friend's computer's Window 8)

I'm pretty sure somebody posted up a BF2 iso link somewhere in these forums.

The only requirement is a legit key, so if he can find a backup copy of BF2 that somebody has posted on the internet and you are willing to give him your key then is nothing stopping him playing.

Thanks I just found a link for BF2 iso, but is it possible to play Project Reality with more than one people, but using the SAME key at once?

Look up Steam Family Sharing if you haven't already. It's a feature that allows you to share your game library with up to 5(?) other Steam users when you're not using it. I don't know anybody who's used it for PR, but I don't see why it wouldn't work. :)

If you do what is said above, I believe you won't be able to play in the same server at the same time. You will be able to play in different servers at the same time, but not together.

Yeah Steam won't let two users use the same game library at once. For that either buy another copy (some places like Amazon still have it) or wait a little bit for PR to go standalone with 1.3. :)
