Battlefield 4 connectivity issues continue across 'various platforms'

4.7
DICE posted an alert on its support forums for Battlefield 4 to warn players of ongoing connectivity issues across multiple platforms. This is the latest update in a string of problems the game has faced since its launch in late October, which has seen multiple patches go live in the past few weeks.

The game's support forums note that the developer is "continuing to monitor some intermittent connectivity issues affecting some players across various platforms." Though no other information is provided in the alert, DICE's Battlefield 4 issues tracker mentioned that it is investigating a bug that is "accounting for a large amount of crashes" on Xbox 360.

Among the other problems encountered by Battlefield players are reports that the game's China Rising DLC failed to carry over from PS3 to PS4, for players that made the switch to the next-gen system. As a result of its constant problems, multiple law firms have launched investigations into EA to determine whether the publisher intentionally mislead investors on the game's state leading up to its release.

-Signed There were issues for me before. But as of now, I'm having no problems. I do notice a lot more campers in this game. I mean the game is created to be similar to real combat, but it just gets annoying. Especially when most of the other team is sniping and they have LMGs near them as well. It gets boring and annoying real quick.


What ruins it for me, is people on Operation Locker getting up in that that one spot by B flag(The railing on the perimeter of B flag.) I play hardcore so when I die by someone sitting up there with ammo and grenades, I don't expect someone to be up there, plus once they start getting squad mates up there, just gets a little much to handle at times.

Honk I cant imagine how much better this game would be than COD if they were no issues. Not saying COD is better than this.


The issues when I first got BF4 is what pushed me away to CoD because I didn't like the issues on BF4 when I first started playing it. Stayed on CoD for a little over a month before returning to BF4. It's looking up and I'm glad they're fixing things now.
