I’ve recently bought Battlefield 4, and I’m starting to think I shouldn’t. I’m trying to play through the story, but the game keeps glitching me at the exact same part of the campaign mission.

I’m supposed to jump down on the deck (or something) on the battleship Titan and … I just can’t.

First attempt: Glitch through the entire ship.

Second attempt: Complete Game Crash.

At this point haven’t they even fixed their campaign?

The campaign never glitched out for me, if you are in pc try uninstalling and reinstalling the game. It may have not installed correctly the first time.

I’m not sure, that’s entirely up to you, but I play on a regular basis stlll, and i’m having fun. Of course I didn’t buy it for the campaign, and probably wouldn’t be too sad if it didn’t work. Multiplayer is where it’s at!

I have over 200 hours in multiplayer. The single player, while fun, is just a drop in the ocean to what the game actually is.

The game is about its multiplayer, and you must play it to decide for yourself.

Best explanation ever.

The battlefield games didn’t even have a campaign mode until bad company. I wish they stuck with the whole action comedy thing, though. The single player feels like a cheesier version of CoD.

After the ship breaks apart? That is very odd, I can’t really recall any problems like that in that section.

If you’re trying again from your last save, it’s possible that something went wrong with the save file and that starting that level over would work around it.

Either way, my apologies.

I did start the level over because the last checkpoint I was bugged through the ship

There was a “campaign” in 1942. But it was literally playing single player on the same maps you play multiplayer online. I still loved it though. The propeller driven aircraft feel so much more suited to the map size.

I remember the single player from vietnam and BF2. It was just multiplayer maps with bots, probably since back then a lot of people didnt have great internet access to play 32v32 multiplayer.

I’ve played most of the campaign, and it’s pretty good, looks amazing. But the reason I play any Battlefield game is for Multiplayer. Yes being new you will get your butt kicked for awhile, but hang in there, learn the maps, play with your team and be a team player and you will be fine. Look into joining a clan and play with members and use teamspeak. You will thank me later !

I’m not a new player. I just like playing the campaign through at least once.

The campaign is pretty good, but im the guy who enjoys linear cod like campaigns. (I know im weird). But lets honest here, everyone played the campaign for the multiplayer unlocks
