I bought the $18 Battlefield 4 Premium pack off PSN last night, and installed it, and then went back and downloaded and installed all the DLC packs too. When I login, it shows the Premium logo on the home screen, and a pop up saying all the different DLCs were unlocked. However, the top 3 options in the Quick Match(Large Scale Battle, The BattleFiled, and Close Quarters) were gold text and just pop up a PS Store list when selected. It says Premium is 49.99, and all the DLC say Free. Any help?

Are you able to access the maps / guns of the dlc ? Like have you played on a map , does it load ?  
Thinking its a region problem you have.

I played on one of the other game modes last night and it seemed to work fine. All of the battle packs were unlocked. Do you mean in Join a Server, was I able to see the dlc maps? How else are you to check if the dlc guns/maps were unlocked? Im in the US if that helps.

I havent played a battlefield game in a few years, since like Bad Company 2 on pc..

When you played the other game mode was it on a dlc map ?

No, i dont think so. It was just through Quick Match small scale conquest. I forget the name of the map though…

Go to the match settings and set it to only the dlc maps (select 4-5 dlc maps) or go into any normal map and try using one of the dlc guns like the mtar or etc and let me know what happens

Ok, ill try that when i get home, thanks.  
Normally, should those 3 options be white text in the Quick Match menu? What should happen when i select one of those 3 game modes, ex. Close Quarters?

Or is the dlc just map and gun packs, and you have to just find servers from the server list that happen to be on a dlc map and game mode?

Unfortunately I’m not sure.I know that if your disc and account region don’t match then it won’t recognize the dlc.I bought china rising on a EU account however my Disc was US so none of the guns pop up like the mtar and the maps can’t be selected

Don’t use quick match man. Use the server browser, that way you can specifically filter for dlc maps, plus you don’t want to use quick match anyway. If you find that it’s truly broken call ea support, they are actually very helpful. Good luck

OP I had this exact problem. When you downloaded the game, it only downloaded the base game and the premium activation key. You need to go to STORE from the title screen and select and download each map pack manually. You will be able to join and play them to your heart’s content afterwards. If you put your PS4 into Rest Mode after initializing the downloads, it will finish much faster.

Thanks for the suggestion. I went and downloaded all of the dlc packs from the ps store, not from the in game menu. i wonder if that makes a difference…

As long as they show up in your active Downloads section, you should be fine.
