BF3 wont update

Hi,

it could be something has gone wrong while installing the game preventing the updates from downloading.

Reinstalling (yes, even though you just installed) could help solve your problem. To avoid the download of

the entire game you can follow the below instructions:

download and install the latest Origin client (if not already installed)

# Exit Origin

# Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games on your hard drive (or the Origin game map you configure)

# Copy the entire BF3 folder to another location. This will be your backup of the BF3 data.

# Start Origin and uninstall the game then restart Origin to be shure the state of BF3 is uninstalled. (you will be presented with the download button in origin)

# Start the download of BF3 but pause it when it is running (kb's are being received. 100kb will be anough already)

# Exit Origin

# Copy back the BF3 folder (the backup you made) to the Origin games folder and overwrite the existing files

# Log back in to Origin and resume the download.

# After downloading, right click BF3 and choose check for update

I hope this resets the state of your BF3 installation and starts updating.

Best regards,
