HELP!!!!   Every time I start BF4 I will get this error message: "Your player profile has been damaged, and some things cannot be recovered." Awards, textures, designs, sensitivity, and all important profile data are locked  -  although I can see them being unlocked at the same time on the PC at Battlelog.com!!!

 

This S****T started happening, I think, after the last update that was done - I want to say maybe a week or two ago.

 

Please, FIX this BULLCRAP error!!! Very, VERY ANNOYING!

Found the solution (xBox 360) for BF4 game:

 

I deleted my user data from the hard drive, and then booted up the game again. I was then prompted to sign into my EA account again.

 

My user data is/was all backed up server side as well as on battlelog.

 

The only problem with this method is/was, you will probably have to set up all your loadouts again. But better having to do it only ONCE more than having to do it EVERY time you play the game.

 

Hope that helps you!

You know I'm really, really struggling with this game. I have played since bf3 so not that long and I have bought premuim but this, this is about the last straw. Everytime i load battlefield four it says that message and then I have to do the screen adjust
thing and set my brightness etc etc then when i join a game every one of my things are reset and I have to go through and reset them and every once in a while it will tell me i have not unlocked anything. I thought at first this would be a one time deal but then it happend again, then a third fourth and fith and so on . It has been maybe four days now . It sure dosent improve my mood either my disc got laser burn so my game crashes and my internet is suckin for some reason (not dices fault ) so i can't play battlefield for more then 15 minutes maybe. I am really, really hoping someone will give me a response as what to do because I am a little bit pissed off and about feed up with this game. Please help

"Existing player profile settings appear to be damaged and cannot be used" ?What? Help!!!

Damaged Profile Settings...  Everytime that I go to start up my BF4 game it goes through the necessary loading until it gets to loading profile, then it pops up an error saying "Existing player profile settings appear to be damaged and cannot be used" I can get past this but it resets my profile and acts like I just started the game. I have to set my vertical and horizontal TV views and all of my options for my game. I have all of my weapons, EXP and stats, but none of my game settings. I spoke with an XBOX rep and we went thru all kinds of procedures from cleaning my storage cache to erasing and reinstalling both my player profile and my latest game update.  This issue only started today so I am completely confused since the download installed originally yesterday. Please help me if you can, I am looking for answers and have no place to get them...
