    Happens on Any Server❗
       ... Does NOT matter if the Servers is Running , 1 DLC or 3 DLCs or All DLCs❗



    I've Clearly Stated Before , here  :

             BF3   —   BattleLog Error | EA Forums - 12204326

    ⚠️th*ssh*t Happens when the Server is running a DLC Map :

       🅰️ Insta-Kick on Join , when Servers is running a DLC Map❗
       🅱️ even If I was playing fine on a Base Map , as soon as the Server  rotates to a DLC Map , I'll be Kicked❗




    .. and here , ( In Response to your Other Question .. )  :

             BF3   —   BattleLog Error | EA Forums - 12204326

    I found these Discussions :

             Battlefield 3 Missing Content | EA Forums - 6249927
             can't use premium content neither i cant join a premium server | EA Forums - 6276109

    ... Mine was also Missing  "InstallerData.xml"  @  "Battlefield 3/Update/Xpack1"
             .. which I Added & Edited ,  [ Back to Karkand ] ✅
                      ... However this Did NOT Fix the issue❗

    I noticed the Subfolder "Patch"  @  "Battlefield 3/Update/Patch"  ,  is also Missing  "InstallerData.xml"
             ... the Problem is , I dunno WTF is the actual Name of this Patch , ( in order to Edit the File ) ..
             ... Or the Writing Structure of it , ( Is it similar to the DLCs or Not )




    Issue with Licenses , ( whether due to Failure during Installation or Something Else ) ,
       ... has Plagued Both  BF 3 & 4  since their Launch , ( back @ 2011 & 2013 )



    However I think ,
          ( based on what I've seen from Others , Suffering the same Issue .. )
          ( ... and the Absolute Joke responses , given by Some EA-Support Staff )

    the whole EA Play Subscription
          ( whether Directly @ EA App  .. Or ..  thru ,  GamePass / STEAM )

    ... has made this shi*tty Situation , going from F*CKED to FUBAR❗

    Thus , the Only way to Solve this ,
          ( w/o me Re-Purchasing  BF  3 & 4  , each for the 100th time , on the 100th Acc )

    .. Requires , EA / DICE staff to Delete & then Re-Add my DLC Licenses & Premium Status❗

    Hey there REDAKTED__42​ 

    Sorry to see you running into this.

    Just a couple things to check so I can try and narrow this down a bit.

    Is this happening only in specific servers using specific DLC maps or every server?

    Can you double check in the install directory that all the maps are indeed present?


    This just helps us narrow down if it's having an issue recognizing the presence of a specific DLC or all DLC.


    Thanks ragnarok013​ for bringing this to our attention.

  • EA_Failroader​ Can you assist the OP? He's having issues with BF3 expansion packs which started affecting the community a few years ago and was exacerbated by the recent transition to the "EA App".

    If the mentioned methods did not help then you should talk to EA support.

  • danisoff​ Absolutely NOT❗

       .. I've already Repaired & Re-Downloaded the entire Game 5times❗
       .. it requires an EA/DICE Staff  (e.g. EA_Atic​ ) to check my Account , to do Whatever they should .. similar to here :

    Re: ‎Game disconnected: you are missing content from this game.‎ | EA Forums - 6264835



    Also these did NOT fix the Issue , Neither

    Re: Battlefield 3 - Game disconnected: you are missing content from the game. | EA Forums - 6264628
    Battlefield 3 DLC Not Working [PC] | EA Forums - 6173744

       ... (as deleting the file in Question, does NOT Fruit Any Different Result ...
             .. instead causes Repair Pop-Up on Each Close , since it does'nt even  Re-download the file at all)

  • Hello REDAKTED__42​,

    You should try reinstalling the game, since you already own all of the DLC. The issue is most likely caused by the game not properly recognizing the installed DLC.
