Can't join any server bf4

★★ Novice

Hi guys! 

Yesterday i started bf4 after months since the last i played it. I downloaded the DLC Dragon's Teeth, and updated the battlelog plug in that i use in chrome to the ersion 2.5.1.

 

I can't join any server, if i join it reach ''Loading level'' but after 30 seconds i get ''ERROR: game disconnected something went wrong'' and windows says to me ''Battlefield 4 has stopped working''

 

I have used the repair tool on origin but didn't worked

Try this...

 

Run the game as Administrator:
Go to the Origin games folder (C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Battlefield 4) and find Bf4.exe. Right click it and go to PROPERTIES, then COMPATIBILITY and check the box next to RUN THIS PROGRAM AS ADMINISTRATOR.
Do the same with BF4_x86.exe as well.

Run Origin as Administrator:
Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin and right click on Origin.exe and go to properties. Then go to compatibility tab and check the box next to RUN AS ADMIN.

Disable Origin in game:
In Origin - Application settings - Origin in Game - disable Origin in game

Origin Cloud Storage turn it off
Origin, settings, General

Make Sure BF4 is set to 64bit if your windows is 64bit
1- open origin and go to My Games
2-Right click BF4 and go to Game Properties
3-Under when launching this game set it to x64 and check off disable origin in game.
4- Hit apply and test you BF4

 

Test BF4 after a reboot 

 

Another thing that may be worth trying: run a Clean Boot: http://help.ea.com/en/article/how-to-clean-boot-your-pc/
This should ensure that no programs are interfering in the background.

 

Disable Mantle if you have it and try Direct X

Others have said if they uninstall MSI Afterburner issues / crashing is stopped. So if you have this installed remove program and test BF4. Also look at other programs as Fraps, Geforce experience, be sure to turn off the streaming function that is enabled by default ,Raptr, RivaTuner , ASRock eXtreme Tuner, Steam, Skype, aero ,Overwolf extra program in teamspeak and xfire are known to make issues as well. And I am sure more programs not in my list yet turn one off at a time and test BF4. Since last patch more programs now give issues :/

Uninstall the HD Audio Driver from the video card driver install add/remove programs. This silly thing makes issues in BF4 for some. Reboot then repair BF4 to be safe.

Another thing to try is re- install origin only.


If all this fails to fix it then try this...

BF4 folder in my documents holds game configs and screen shots even if BF4 is installed on different drive. When you uninstall BF4 it does NOT remove this folder. So when you install the game again you can still have the same issues. Even if its not a new install it is still worth trying as the game cfg could be mucked up.

1- Go to my Documents and remove BF4 folder place it on your Desktop or trash.
2- Be warned you do have to set up your in game settings again.
3-Repair BF4
4- When done go test your game. If it fails reboot your PC and run repair game again and test BF4.

You will require 2 more game repairs. How the repairing game works: first, repair the game on Origin, then reboot your computer and repair the game again, it can help you.

Ok, I know this thread is old but I figured this might help out anyone that comes across this in the future, I tried everything and eventually I discovered disabling 'windows game bar' fixed the issue I was having when trying to connect to Battlefield 4 servers with "unable to join server: error code 1". You can do this in Win10 by going to the settings menu (little cog) in the windows start bar then 'gaming' and unchecking 'record games clips, screenshots, and broadcast using Game Bar'.

I'm closing this thread to stop it being necroed.

If you have any issues with Battlefield 4 please make a new topic about the issues you are having and what kind of steps you have tried to solve it.
