  1. Game Refuses to Launch


    I tried to play the game this morning hoping that EA and DICE have finally gotten their sh*t together, but NOPE. The game won't even launch, it keeps going to that rain picture and after a few brief seconds it kicks me out to the Home page. I'm beyond done
    with this game.

    :)

  5. I have had the same problem and tried to find some solution. I had the game load after I unplugged my console and let it sit

    for few minutes. XboxOne BTW. Fired it up and game loaded but no servers I can join WTF!?!

    I also have this issue and quite frankly it's ridiculous. A simple solution I've found though without the need to turn off the console. If you have a game that's a digital copy (FIFA for me) just launch that first, when it starts loading quite simply go
    back to the home screen then press the button with 3 lines on it and "quit" the game. Then launch BF4 and it should launch just fine. I've no idea why it does this, it's crazy.

  7. I'm not sure this issue is with BF4. I had the same thing happen to me once a few weeks ago and then just a few days ago I had the same issue with Dead Rising 3.

  9. I had the same issue earlier and then after a few attempts it worked. I also was finally able to find a game by just selecting the gamemode I wanted. The only issue was the lobby I found had nobody in it and after 20 minutes only 2 other people had joined.
