Battlefield 4 [PC] won't launch
Hey folks, I recently purchased the digital version of BF4 from origin. It seems to install correctly but everytime I try to launch the game, nothing happens. I've tried reinstalling it but the pr...

I had the same. Nothing happened when I tried to launch the game. I've tried everything I was able to find on the internet with no result. Then I decided to install BF3 and I found the solution. BF3 was not starting too but gave an error message that the game can't connect to Battlelog because of missing application (I had the same already with MOHW) so I've check forums for a solution to that problem and it was very simple: setting Chrome as default internet browser!!! Believe me or not but BF3 launched! Now I've installed BF4 and it works too!!!
Hope that helps for you as well. Good luck!
I have the same problem, posted last week about it with all my specs an tried soloutions. Which is every thing in this thread plus a few that havent been mentioned here. Have not had a response from anyone yet
I have to modify a bit what I wrote last time. It's not setting Chrome as a default browser that fixed the issue in my case, it was installing BF3!. I've removed it after running successfully BF4 for the first time and after that I couldn't launch the game (BF4) like before although it was connecting to Battlelog correctly.
What I've noticed is it's not only installing BF3 but also running the game until it autosaves for the first time. After that I could again launch BF4!
Maybe it has something to do with the 4 files in this directory C:\Users\XXX\Documents\Battlefield 3\settings:
meta
PROF_SAVE_body
PROF_SAVE_header
PROF_SAVE_profile
I don't know, but maybe it will give someone a hint what is actually the real problem.
Thanks to Zorlacc my problem was solved, but I can't mark his reply as a solution for some reason.
If this thread wasn't bumped by chance, I would be out of luck with my problem. Why every other platform has a sticky thread for solutions in this forum, but PC doesn't? This thread contains replies that suggest many relevant solutions, it deserves to be stickied.
WOW buddy. I could not launch the game at all, tried everything mentioned then got to your post and put in Google Chrome as default browser.
and it WORKED!
Big thanks bud :-)
