Hello @spunkypairofsock,
Check Server Status:
- Sometimes, game servers may be down for maintenance or experiencing issues. Check official social media channels or forums for updates.
Reinstall the Game:
- Since you've already tried repairing, a full reinstall may help. Uninstall Battlefield 3, then download and install it again through the EA app.
Clear EA App Cache:
- Close the EA app completely.
- Press Windows + R, type %ProgramData%, and delete the "EA" folder.
- Go to %LocalAppData% and delete the "EA" folder there as well.
- Restart the EA app and try launching the game again.
Disable Background Applications:
- Sometimes background applications can interfere. Disable any unnecessary apps, especially overlays (like Discord or GeForce Experience) and antivirus software temporarily.
Update Network Drivers:
- Ensure your network drivers are up to date. You can do this through Device Manager by right-clicking on your network adapter and selecting "Update driver."
Check Firewall/Antivirus Settings:
- Ensure that your firewall or antivirus isn’t blocking the game. Add exceptions for both the EA app and Battlefield 3.
Contact EA Support:
- If none of the above steps work, reaching out to EA Support may be your best option. They might have specific insights for this error.
I hope this helps.
Best regards,
