I know its been said 100 times but i have no one to bitch to so you are it. I have been kicked out of probably a good 20+ matches that i was probably 3/4 of the way through w/ unlocks and good XP to just freeze or server crash. It is getting ridiculous. I know you have to expect issues w/ a new launch but after an open beta and all this time i dont expect it to be this bad. It’s dumb, the game seriously is just hardly playbable unless you feel like pulling your hair out and punching your keyboard. Anway. Just wanted to bitch. Hopefully EA/DICE will get their shit together and get it fixed soon. Thanks.
When I first bought the game it would freeze on almost every single game I’d join. Progressively, it somehow died down to only crashing on Siege of Shanghai. Weird, huh?
I havent found a pattern for me just yet. I am going to try playing 48 and 32 player maps and see if maybe its the 64 player that are having the worst problems maybe.
This happened to me 20 minutes ago and that’s why I’m now on reddit. I was getting my fuckin dick kicked in so I wasn’t too upset about it. But in all seriousness, it’ll probably be like this for another week or 2 then an update will come and it’ll be patched.
hahaha that is the time frame im probably guessing too.
What happened to games working when you paid money for them?
I have no memory of this being the case 
I crashed in 64 just once and decided to just play on 48 player servers. The game runs great, plays just fine…there are some floating objects every now and then but I figured they will fix that. The mayor problem is that after every match, after I get my xp, the map changes…but that changes my screen from the game to RED! Totally red…no blue screen of death…every pixel is ffing RED! After 10 seconds my PC just reboots…this happens EVERY time!

Found this on the EA help site:
Battlefield 4 crashes into a red screen on my Windows 8 PC with an AMD graphics card
Windows 8 players running Battlefield 4 using an AMD graphics card may experience a crash to a red screen when Battlefield 4 changes maps between matches or games, and then must restart their PC in order to play again.
Some players have reported that running Battlefield 4 in Compatibility Mode for Windows 7 provides some help, but may still result in a red-screen-crash in between matches.
As noted above, AMD has released new drivers that should help solve these issues.
Yup, it’s getting old.
Now that I’ve fixed my shit* I haven’t had TOO much issues with the client crashing but it’s still so frustrating being at the top of the server to suddenly crash what seems like always 50 tickets before the end of the game.
*= I fixed a large number of my client crashes by reinstalling the 331.65 drivers from Nvidia with the Clean Install option checked.
nice ill give that a shot! i havent played since i posted this because like you said, when i have unlocks and lots of xp w/ 50 tickets left ill freeze.
Just curious OP, can you describe what your freezes are like? I’ve had a few of the “Battlefield has stopped working” crashes, but with the majority of mine, the game just locks up entirely and the audio loops until I kill it from task manager. Does anyone else have the same sort of crash?
haha yeah. so both you described explain my issues exactly.
- audio loop freeze where i have to kill task.
- BF4 has stopped working freeze
- the server crashes where you cant connect anymore
- actually had this a few days ago and had to google a fix for it…i couldnt connect to any servers because punkbuster said it couldnt connect or something. I ended up having to go to the origin folder/install/punkbuster/ something like that and do the reinstall punkbuster thing to fix it. big pain in the ass. just a heads up if it happens to you.
so yeah all those crashes are same for everyone. Have no fear.
Well that’s some comfort I suppose. Thanks!
This and the fact that your ribbons don’t count towards your EP makes the whole experience somewhat worse. After every round I get reminded that I don’t get rewarded for these ribbons.. It’s just annoying.
LOL agreed.
