Hi, these 'tricks' can get most people playing the game when they try them.
And they don't damage your computer (where you got that crazy idea from I don't know!)
Most of the time people cannot connect it is because of badly installed Punkbuster (despite people saying that they have installed it 'correctly'!)
Always check in your TASKMANAGER and go to PROCESSES to see if PnkBstr!.exe is running. If it is not then you have not correctly installed Punkbuster and will be unable to play multiplayer correctly.
-Reinstall Punkbuster.
Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Battlefield 4 and select pbsv.exe . Choose 'reinstall'
Install advice for Punkbuster https://help.ea.com/uk/article/punkbuster-technical-issues
Besides the Punkbuster reinstall these can also help get you back in the game:
- make sure that your firewall/anti virus isn't preventing the game, Punkbuster or Origin from launching.
Also check the quality of your internet connection.
-make sure that you've updated your drivers to the latest version (or if your failure to connect only developed after a recent update, then reinstalling a previous driver can also fix it - note always do a clean install)
-Do a repair install of the game in Origin. In origin right click your game and from drop down choose repair install.
The following will usually fix Battlelog servers issues:
- Make sure you download and install the latest Battlelog plugins
First uninstall old Battlelog plugin by going to "Control Panel\Programs\Programs and Features" and removing "battlelog web plugin".
Then log in using Origin and go to battlelog page where you'll be prompted to download latest web plugin.
After you have installed it you should clear your cache, exit your browser. Then restart your browser, and then re-login to Origin to ensure proper install.
If this doesn't work then you should try a different browser (Chrome/Maxthon/Firefox, etc)
-Make sure that you have latest version of flash installed http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/?no_redirect
Its always best to do the following:
-Run the game as ADMINISTRATOR.
Go to the Origin games folder (C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Battlefield 4) and find Bf4.exe. Right click it and go to PROPERTIES, then COMPATIBILITY and tick the box next to RUN THIS PROGRAM AS ADMINISTRATOR.
Do the same with BF4_x86.exe as well.
-Disable Origin in game.
In Origin - Application settings - Origin in Game - disable Origin in game
-Run Origin as Administrator
Right click on Origin.exe and go to properties. Then go to compatability tab and tick the box next to RUN AS ADMIN.
If I help then give an XP.
