    Hi All

    I did the below and it works fine now!

    Some Xbox 360 players have been successful in resolving these issues after going through the following steps:

    • From the Xbox Dashboard, head to Settings, then System, and select Storage 
    • From Storage, select your hard drive, then Games and Apps, and find your Battlefield 4 file folder 
    • In your Battlefield 4 folder, delete all game updates (except for the title update 6MB) .
      • Be careful not to delete any other game data, such as your expansion packs or profiles saves--unless they are corrupted, at which point you should then delete and redownload them.
    • Once you have deleted all your game updates, return to the Storage menu, highlight your hard drive and Y to bring up Device Options 
    • In your Device Options, select Clear System Cache to run maintenance on your console--this should last about 20 seconds at most. 
    • Once your system cache has been cleared, you should be able to play Battlefield 4 without error
    • When launching your game, you will be asked to again download the March 4th game update, titled  Update 8.

    I had this problem and the above fixed it!!!

I also have this same exact problem and I have tried all of these steps to help fix it but they have not worked at all. I have an Xbox 360 S so is there any way you could help me out?

    Also be sure to install both DVDs to the 360's HDD and if at all possible play using a wired connection instead of using a wireless connection.

    cronikcraze, just to be sure, you have the 250 or 320 GB internal 360 Slim HDD correct? if not Bf4 requires this internal HDD to function properly.
