Xbox owners having trouble downloading Battlefield 4 DLC

4.7
Xbox owners are reporting issues downloading the China Rising map pack for Battlefield 4.

A status update on the official Xbox website warns that the "purchase and content usage" service is currently "limited" on both Xbox One and Xbox 360.

Microsoft posted a further message on the page late on Tuesday night, assuring gamers that it is trying to fix the problem.

The statement reads: "Hi Xbox members, are you having difficulties trying to get the new China Rising map pack for Battlefield 4? We are currently working with our partner to get this issue resolved. Thanks for all your patience while we work. We'll update you when work is complete."

Reports also suggest that those who are able to download the China Rising pack are suffering a new slate of game-breaking technical glitches.

Following a troubled launch that prompted a good-will double XP event, new issues with the China Rising DLC have been widespread enough for EA to publish a post specifically addressing the most common problems players are encountering.

PC players being kicked from China Rising servers will have to wait for Dice to issue a fix. "DICE have identified the issue and is implementing a solution to the problem. This fix will take some time to be fully completed, but players should be noticing normal gameplay behavior soon," said EA.

And for Xbox 360 players who are completely unable to join China Rising games, EA said: "We're investigating this issue and will provide updates as quickly as possible."

The Battlefield 4 China Rising DLC launched on all platforms for Battlefield Premium members on Tuesday. Premium subscribers will receive exclusive access to the content for two weeks before it's released to the general public on December 17. China Rising was also offered as a Battlefield 4 pre-order bonus.

It should be all fixed up in the near future. Apparently many people have been able to download the DLC normally as of late

Woof It definitely isn't easy. Try quitting the app, restart etc, whole thing is a bug, eventually worked for me, still a very annoying experience to say the least.


I wish they would have found and worked out these kinks before selling them to consumers.

Jayden- I'm not even buying BF4. Not on a console anyway.

Buying it on a console is just not worth it in my opinion. If I was to buy it, it'd be on a PC.


I don't know why people on console insist on playing games that were created intended for PC.
BF4 on console is only on medium graphics.

They're missing out.


You need to take into account that some people simply don't want to get into PC gaming, like consoles more or don't have the money to afford a gaming PC which can run Battlefield 4.

The game is just fine on console if you ask me, i am having a lot of fun with it.


I didn't mean to come off as offensive.
I apologize.

What i am saying is, if there is so many problems that all people are doing is complaining, why don't they just switch platforms?
You can build a computer for the price of a console that would still be able to run BF4.
