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 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.

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.

Gossip I dont think they test it out before releasing it.


This had nothing to do with testing.
This has to do with servers not be able to handle the amount of people trying to download.


this seems to happen alot with companys wouldnt it make sense to just buy more servers then you need so this doesnt happen and they lose customers


I guess they underestimated the support they get from fans.

Lia Seems like a hit and miss issue? It doesn't seem like a lot of people are experiencing this issue.


No, but at least MS // DICE are aware of the issue and will fix it. MS are trying to stay on top of things :)


well DICE has had just about every error possible so far so im sure they are on top of any error occuring. but on a different note, wow. first issue with xbox with battlefield. surprising.

Pretty much this. Either that or an issue with their servers in general

You're one of the few people that are actually having problems.
Most are able to download without a hitch.
