Introduction:

Battlefield 4 Community Operations is separate from the upcoming Fall Update
INFANTRY FOCUS
The valley is infantry-focused with limited access making the use of agile vehicles, such as RHIB’s on the river and quad bikes for fast transportation, critical for success. Includes hallmark game modes such as Conquest, Rush, Gun Master, Chain Link, and many more.

OPERATION OUTBREAK
The battles takes place in the map Operation Outbreak. Fight inside the abandoned medical research facility, lay down fire at an ancient temple next to a lush waterfall, or completely destroy and level houses when the enemy tries to get cover in the overgrown ghost town.

COMMUNITY BUILT
Developed alongside the community as Battlefield 4 players provided feedback, suggestions, and voted in polls to shape its final form. The result is a dense infantry-focused jungle map called Operation Outbreak.

Before You Create A Thread / Question:
If you create a thread about an installation issue / error with the summer patch please do so following these guidelines:

Try not to create duplicate threads
Make the subject text as descriptive as possible like this: "[PC] Error #123456 during install" and "[XBOne] Error #654321 during download"- not "HELP", "BF4" or something similar vague text.
Mention in detail: what system / setup you have, your location, error messages, step by step instructions about what you did and and what you have already done / tried to solve the issue.

Most Likely Solutions:
[ALL PLATFORMS]

Patience. The update will reach all but not necessarily at the exact same time although that's the aim.
Turn off all your equipment (console, pc, router etc.), remove power for 5 minutes, reconnect power and turn on.
