BF3 Launch not working

Problem:
When attempting to play BF3, the Battlelog menus do not initialize the game at all.

When navigating the Battlelog Multiplayer Servers UI, I cannot even make changes to selections or filters. I can only view the default options of servers. 

Attempting to play Campaign, nothing happens, no blue notification bar of loading... nothing.

I have tried the following:

  • Bought through Steam, synced Steam account with EA account.
  • Deleting the License files from within Program Data / Electronic Arts / EA Services / Licenses
  • Updating PunkBuster from their website.
  • Restarting.
  • Restarting in multiple different instances.
  • Tried to launch with ALL and ANY other programs ended and closed.
  • Uninstalled and removed EA app. Then re-installing.
  • Checked the files with Steam. Nothing changed, all files are verified.
  • EA app seems to no longer allow an option for repairing, so that isn't an option anymore like it was on Origin. 
  • I've tried to use the Battlelog on different browsers. Nothing changes.

It seems some people have run into Battlelog issues before, but not this specific issue and I'm doing everything I can to bring solution yet I am getting no where. 

At first my issue was getting anything to start, but I found out that problem was because PunkBuster was hiding and I had to find it on my screen to properly install the script of PunkBuster.
Then once Battlelog would show up, now I cannot start the game at all from the Battlelog menus.
