Thanks guys, my game wasn’t just crashing, it would sometimes connect, but it wouldn’t spawn me and my POV was from under the map, and no options would pop up, so I would have to alt-tab out and close the window to exit it. Seems like it’s working now, but I think this should have been added to the patch notes just so people know without having to search for it here.

Game always worked fine until Feb 25 patch. I saw this coming…i do not have the config file.

Test range wont launch, Battlefield has stopped working.

Game servers, game loads the graphic but stalls on a black screen when it should be entering the game

The game hit the loading screen (the black one, with the white stripes on the top right corner). It takes some seconds, then the game closes itself, and the error message "ERROR You were disconnected from EA Online (1)" is poppin up.

i have exaclty your same problem after patch of Feb 25.

now i cant join any game of any kind. Before This i only crashed on Metro, Locker , Paracel and Dawn, but now is worse.

Win 7 64 bit  
Nvidia GeForce 770 GTX  
8 GB Ram  
HDD

I start BF4 in the Battlelog i choose a server and its starting with the connection. Then the game load the map after loading the map i became a black screen.  
Now i see the mouseicon from windows when i click then came a Windows error Message “Battlefield 4 dosen t work”. I have tried 15 or more different servers but on no one i can t play.

Thanks for the great update. Before i had no problems with BF4 and now i cant play.

I load a Windows update for 64 bit systems.

I hope you will work fast on a change. So i can play again fast or i will forget this bad and buggy game. There are so many fails in the game but the worst fail isn t when i can t play.

I removed the config line AND did a repair install and that fixed it for me.

I said it yesterday and I’ll say it again. Dice/EA are extremely bad at managing their customer’s experience and perceptions. Not a good time to screw up another patch release.

What happened to keeping us up-to-date about issues and fixes?

Players get excited about news the game is improving and becoming more fun to play and can put up with some bugs if they know it will be handled and resolved. No-one really cares about camos/dogtags/battlepacks/etc. Concentrate on stability and gameplay please.
