BF4 China Rising Expansion not working
I'm a BF4 Premium member on PS4 which gives me all Xpacs with early access, but also pre-ordered BF4 so my game came with the CR expansion as well.
China Rising was released this morning, so it's out now.
I downloaded CR but it isn't letting me access it, so I deleted it from my notifications list and it's not in my library (I assume it didn't install), so I went to playstation store to reinstall it but couldn't find out where to access it from, so I just re-entered my code (which gave me a prompt stated its already been used), but it gave me the information for the code stating it a china rising expansion code, but it wouldn't let me re-download it...?
When I start BF4, there is no prompt to download china rising, even though I'm a premium member, and also had the pre-order bonus for it. Even if I try to start Air Superiority game it just prompts that I don't have the required expansion and nothing more.
When I look in the Premium options from the game menu, it mentions china rising and gives some brief info, but no option to download.
I can't find the option to download china rising *anywhere*; not on playstation store, not in the BF4 game menu...nowhere.
I've been searching for the past few hours and I have to say it really has me pretty upset, I can't believe this big of an oversight has been made for such a simple thing.
All other game downloads and addons for other games have worked just fine, and I've been able to find them no problem, so I know it's not me just being stupid. Can anyone help me find a way to download it again, or force it to prompt a download for CR?
Thanks in advance!
This is a CONFIRMED fix for Xbox360! If you are having the issue where you try to join a server, and it directs you to the store to buy the expansion, even though you already own it, and have downloaded it, then try this:
-Delete everything related to BF4 from your hard drive, except the game save data if you wish.
-Clear the system cache several times.
-Boot the game from the disk. Do not install it to you hard drive, yet.
-Do the first update that pops up.
-Do the 2nd update that pops up. This should be the HD content install (2gig).
-Do the 3rd update, which should be the most recent multi-player update.
-After this update, it will say that you need to restart for it to take effect. DO NOT RESTART. -> CANCEL.
-Go to the in-game store and re-download the CR expansion. Should be free since you already own it.
-When this is done, DO NOT accept the offer to restart. Instead, exit straight to the Xbox Home Screen.
-Now install the game disc content to your HD.
-Start the game, and your CR expansion should unlock
-Hope this helps!
