Just installed today, very first game I played went great, was excited to play more when I got home later. Got home, tried getting in 4 different servers, each multiple times. Starts loading in, Battlefield 4 has stopped working, close program. Finally got into a game that was mid way through, played a little bit, game ends, 20seconds until next map starts…Crashes again. Got into another game, mid way through crashed again. ---

Yes, many players got this problem but hey, it’s just released so we are supposed to face some crashes and this will hopefully get solved rather soon. ---

“some” is an understatement since ive spent more time trying to get in a game, than actually playing. 😕 but if fixes are soon, I guess I’ll take a break until then. ---

Fixes are _assumed_ soon. No official anything on this but to stay tuned. I’m with you. I’ve spent 30 minutes trying to get into games today and played 5 of that. Total of 4 crashes in 30min, shortage of hardcore servers causing a lot of full errors. You got the right idea. Just hold on for a while, pretend it’s not out. You’ll be quite a bit behind the release players but you’ll save yourself a lot of anger. If you do play, stay away from high ticket long length servers. You’ll never get anything out of them if you are crashing. ---

Same here, it’s 10 pm here, and not able to stay in a game for more than 10 minutes. And of course, all stats are lost. ---

This game runs worse then most of the alphas ive seen. ---

> Yes, many players got this problem but hey, it’s just released so we are supposed to face some crashes and this will hopefully get solved rather soon. Fuck me. I remember the days when you actually paid for a game that fucking worked smoothly, not “well, it kind of works so long as nobody does the things we’ve specifically marketed the game on” - my clan server always crashes immediately when the skyscraper collapse on Shanghai is triggered. In most other games this kind of bug would sink it on launch but battlefield is pretty much too big to fail. ---

They say on Battlelog that they are putting more servers in and it can make your game crash or get kicked from a game. It should be fixed soon. Once again it’s a new game, they are bound to have hiccups especially with as many people trying to play online at once. ---

I had this prob - solved it. I uninstalled then reinstalled Punkbuster. The crashes stopped - 3 hrs straight play. Seems the issue (for me) might not be BF4 itself but some of the external software it replies on? Also update your graphics drivers. ---

It works pretty well for me and my friends. A few crashes each night. But it starts back up again pretty fast so we don’t bother too much. Sometimes it feels like the game crashes more often on a particular server or map. There were one server and map were we rotated around in the server because one of us was always waiting to get back in. And that person only got in when one other of us friends crashed. So we had a laugh about who was next to sacrifice himself in order for the person that was on the outside to get back in on the server. 😛 ---

The thing that ticks me off is that it doesn’t save any of your progress. I have had a couple high score games then the server crashes and it is as if nothing happened. You can get 30 kills with a gun but it doesn’t save. ---

You won’t get any sympathy from me, **I haven’t even gotten into a game** before it fucking crashes, I spent ~2 hours today trying to figure out how to fix it but nothing worked. I feel like the only one who’s crashing without even playing. ---

Those “days” were populated by much simpler games that didn’t have as many ‘moving-parts’ as you could say. Games are much, much, much more complicated than they were a few years ago. It really is impossible to get a perfect launch on a game as big as this. ---

I have had so many different crashes in this game, it feels like a beta. Usually the game just goes completely black and freezes after about 5 - 15 minutes of gameplay. Sometimes it goes to Windows 7 desktop and just says “Battlefield 4 has stopped responding” while in the middle of a game. Recently the audio stops working except for my own gun fire sounds and a few random sounds, and after a game finishes with jacked up sound it either just crashes or says “lost connection to server”. ---

Yes crashes for me as well in multiplayer. Haven’t had it happen in single player. I am still able to get matches in online, seems to crash randomly. All my drivers are up to date as well, hopefully they’ll release a patch soon! ---

Always crashing an freezing on 360. You would think dice wouldn’t release a game with such a huge cock in it’s ass. ---

Mine crashed a few times after playing a while. All of my drivers were up to date, so I restarted and now it’s working just fine. [Next page](https://battlefieldforum.co/t/game-crashes-often-anoyone-else-pc/109920.md?page=2)
