Multi player keeps loading
Hi Since the Origin update on 2014-07 I can't play multiplayer. It keeps loading but never enters game. Thanks
Nice so time for a new router or net provider if its from them .

Ok lets try this to start with
Latest version of DirectX see this page

Reinstall Microsoft C++

Update your Microsoft .NET framework.

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 check the box next to RUN THIS PROGRAM AS ADMINISTRATOR.
Do the same with BF4_x86.exe as well.
Run Origin as Administrator:
Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin and right click on Origin.exe and go to properties. Then go to compatibility tab and check the box next to RUN AS ADMIN.
Disable Origin in game:
In Origin - Application settings - Origin in Game - disable Origin in game
Origin Cloud Storage turn it off
Origin, settings, General
If all this fails to fix it then try this...
BF4 folder in my documents holds game configs and screen shots even if BF4 is installed on different drive. When you uninstall BF4 it does NOT remove this folder. So when you install the game again you can still have the same issues.
1- Go to my Documents and remove BF4 folder place it on your Desktop or trash.
2- Be warned you do have to set up your in game settings again.
3-Repair BF4
4- When done go test your game.
Thanks man for the swift reply.
I tried all the things you suggested.
DirX said it is up to date and didn't want to reinstall.
.Net said Win8.1 comes with its own version and its not needed so the installer didnt give the option to install.
Did the administrator thing in origin and bf4.exe.
Origin in game and cloud storage is already disabled.
Deleted the "my documents files.
I managed to get into one game but then the same problem continued.
interesting.... what error do you get in event viewer when this happens? And do you get any error from BF4?
- Where do I see what is said in the event viewer?
Once i left the loading screen open and after about 3minutes it said "game disconnected: something went wrong"To find event viewer ... Control Panel / Administrative Tools click on event viewer then go to event viewer local at the top, this will show you your windows errors. I need event id and source to get more of a idea whats going on but lets look at this first so hold off on this just now. Lets look at programs on when you try to play BF4 first as they can make this same issue you have.
Others have said if they uninstall MSI Afterburner issues / crashing is stopped. So if you have this installed remove program and test BF4. Also look at other programs as Fraps, Geforce experience, be sure to turn off the streaming function that is enabled by default ,Raptr, ASRock eXtreme Tuner and xfire are known to make issues as well. And I am sure more programs not in my list yet turn one off at a time and test BF4. Since last patch more programs now give issues :/ in loading BF4
Edit... Nvidia Card uninstall the HD Audio driver you got from the Nvidia driver install as it makes big issues in BF4 for some.
