Battlefield 4 Installing Multiplayer Stuck at 29%

So I recently bought Battlefield 4 on PS4 after playing  it for years on PS3. But now I need to install multiplayer, but its stuck on 29% for an hour. What can I do?

    Yes it worked, I am able to play the multiplayer. For anyone else who has this problem, here is the solution that worked for me.
    First clean the cd the best way as possible, first I tried it with the cleaning cloth that a got with the PSVR but that did not work, a simple sock worked perfectly for me.
    Secondly the game started installing, but still froze a couple times. If that happens shut down the ps4 completely and if the ps4 is off I removed the power cable and waited for about 10 seconds. Then I restarted the ps4 and started bf4 and then it started installing again.

    Good luck if you have the same problem!

    I belive this is EA hacking their own game so they could force us to play bf1 theres no logical explanation for this hundreds of people is having the same problem and they gonna blame it in the cd which is really clean by the way ,same thing apple is doing with they iphone so people could buy their latest versions Im stock at 59% on multiplayer

    Before the disk was broken it was stuck on 22%. The solution was to buy a new disc, any vertical scratches or dents in the disk no matter how small can and will mess up the multiplayer install, you can try cleaning the disk, but if that doesn’t work that means the disk is too “dirty” or “damaged” to install the multiplayer, thought I’d give a definitive answer because I did everything these people have said and it still didn’t work (this is also the top search on google when trying to fix this issue). snapped the old disk because it had a tiny dent by the opening in in the middle on the clear plastic part which rendered the entire disk useless somehow, hope it helps

    Hey man, thanks for posting the solution instead of just bailing on the thread. Forums need more people like you :P

  • I've had a hard copy of BF4 since it released. Ran into a bunch of issues recently with the game and PS4. I wiped the system clean and bought a digital copy for 7 bucks on a different account. Finally worked after trying everything else.

    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.
