    If you have downloaded an 800MB patch only then you do NOT have the expansion. Attempts to join a match without the full download will cause you to exit  from the server. This usually means the screen goes black with only the Battlefield cursor soon after logging in to any server. Then the game exits back to the Battlelog.

     

    Logout of origin, exit the application and start it again. Log back in, go to My Games, right click on Battlefield 4. Select Game Properties. Scroll down to the China Rising expansion picture which should now be un-grayed if you own it. Right click and select download. When you have that 4.5GB downloaded, then you are ready to play the expansion.

    You can only play China Rising at the moment if you are a premium member or you have early access. Early access commenced on the 3rd of December and everyone else gets to play on the the 17th. 

    Note: There was a seperate issue with disconnects from the Air Superiority play mode which should now be fixed.

I have 2 or more friends with the same problem, me included. It simply just disconnects us from the server.

 


Turns out with me trying to fix things I found out that there's a another patch to download. You read right after downloading the 800+MB patch You need to go into Orgin, look at BF4, *Right Click*, Show Game Info, Scroll down a bit, See China Rising DLC. Download it.

That's right I was wondering about the size of the DLC, it's 4.5 Gig to download. 

I hope you guys can spread the word. and I hope this fixes the issue quick.

I could not get this fix to work without logging all the way out of Origin and logging back in. Otherwise the China Rising DLC would still show a ghosted icon and could not be downloaded.

    Thanks for mentioning this spiteengine. If you your China Rising icon is grayed out in Origin, please log out, close the Origin client and restart/login again. It should be available then.

    Cheers
