Steam error ("game is currently unavailable") Battlefield

[Vageetasjn]

I'm getting this error message when I try to load Bad Company 2 on steam. Other games work fine.

It just loaded up fine for me.

when that happens i usually have to close steam and re-open it to work. I assume there was some sort of update to steam that causes it.

I don't play BC2, but it's happened for other games.

Had that happen the other day with Might and Magic Clash of Heroes. The game preloaded, but finished short of the end of the DL because it wasn't officially available yet. I clicked on play to see what would happen. I got that error. I got home from work that night when it was supposed to be available, and it still said the same thing, even though the DL said 100%. I ended up deleting the game and re-downloading it. Now it works fine.

Happened to me two days ago when I tried to play Borderlands.

Followed this: https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=4595-wexn-6831

Mine worked after verifying cache files and restarting Steam.

Yeah I followed that guide last night and #4 fixed it. Thanks for the help, all.
