So I bought BF4 on the PS4 and for whatever reason the game loads the “press options button to play” screen and then it begins loading this.

And never progresses. I tried loading it offline and this screen never even appeared. I got straight to the campaign selection menus. Is anyone else experiencing this?

Same thing happened to me. Tried restarting my PS4 after closing the app and it hard locked my PS4. Had to start in restore. Kind of hesitant to try and load it up again. Might redownload the game? No clue. I’ll keep my eye on this thread and see what’s up.

Just tried to start up the game again and it got past that screen in 3 seconds. Here’s waiting for the next crash.

I’ve deleted it and installed it again twice. It runs fine if I disconnect from PSN before I launch. But even if I reconnect to PSN once I’m in I can’t get online.

I can say that it is taking forever to install the online portion. It started at 40% an hour ago and is only just now at 68%. I’d say to give it some time in single player for the full game to install.

You also might want to check /r/battlefield\_4 I didn’t realize that was the official subreddit.

I’ll probably leave it on over night to see if it makes a difference.

Yeah, I found it shortly after I posted here. Thanks for mentioning it though!
