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.

buddamen124 I've been Getting more than my fair share of connectivity issues and crashes for bf4 on xbox one, not to mention I got the game 2 days ago. Disappointing to say the least.


Battlefield 4 has been a complete mess since release. I own the game on Xbox 360 and have played it on PC and i have experienced an array of issues on both versions. From crashing and progress wipes to not being able to connect to EA's servers all together.


Either way, the game is amazing and way better than Ghosts. Only issue I have on my PS4 is when quick searching for games. Most of the time I join a server and it errors out. Just use the server browser to get into a game. Nothing we can't handle until everything is fixed at last.


love how you throw in that better that ghosts part. shows how much of an absolute fanboy you truly are. and id rather play "unicorn power 3" or some retarded game that i can actually play with my friends than be playing the campaign on battlefield over and over and over again. so no. ghosts is way better than battlefield. i dont even need to actually compare the games bc i can just say one you can play. the other you cant.

i love how you trow in the "ghosts is way better than battlefield" did you just call the other guy a fanboy for saying the opposite? so what does this make you? and you can play BF4 just fine im actually playing as i type this so STFU fanboy

slayerz43 Not having extreme issues with the connectivity but whenever i search for a quick match it puts me on TDM all the time. Like what? I was also in the middle of beating the Campaign on Hard about a week or so ago and all my progression and collectibles had been erased. EA should not have pushed DICE to release the game so quick. Extremely disappointed as i am a fan of the battlefield franchise :/


i agree completely and i cant connect to pretty much any severs but im just hoping it just gets better from here!

Plug Hope they fix this, really enjoy this game.


So do I. I really like the game mode Rush. But right now there are so many issues that I'm not putting it into my disc tray.

The servers on Battlefield 4 are horrendous. It'll search for a game, kick you out to main menu and tell you to fix your connection. -_-

BF4 had had so many issues it's pretty ridiculous considering all of the hype there was for this game.
