Who here has BF 2 and Steam? What I wanna know is if Steam in-game works with BF 2. Also if Steam recognizes BF 2 and tells your friends if you're playing it.

It works on and off. Punkbuster usually kicks me for having a disallowed program (the steam overlay) running. For a few weeks at a time it seemed to work, especially right after steam updates.

So you can browse BF 2 servers using Steam, and set favorites and stuff like that?

No. You can just use the overlay. So other people in the community can still talk to you, add you as a friend, see that youre playing BF2 (But not what server or anything). I thought BF2 allowed you to set favourites and such in game?

Hm, BFBC2 works just fine with Punkbuster and the steam overlay.
