Re: Battlefield 4 / cannot connect to EA online servers
Hi Doctor17, I'm facing the exact same problem and tried that solutions you mention too, pinging, repair option, reinstall, resintall ea app, etc etc
When you mean updating pùnkbuster, how did you do that?
I've downloaded a PB updater from their website, the app asks you the desired game to update and the path. Buit when downloading an update, at the middle it stops and says download failed.
Also I've tried pbsvc.exe inside BF4 folder, which has option for Punkbuster services Test which report to be OK, but even that, in the log it says this:
.....
Checking firewall settings OFF
Is PnkBstrA explicitly allowed?
C:\WINDOWS\system32\PnkBstrA.exe NO <----- this
Is PnkBstrB explicitly allowed?
C:\WINDOWS\system32\PnkBstrB.exe NO <-------- and this
.....
Not sure if that is Ok, I allowed pbsvc.exe in firewall and obviously all bf4.exe's available, but nothing...
Also wanted to ask you, when you tried to launch a multiplayer server from battlelog, your screen kept black and with the flashing "-" (loading screen) forever?
I'm quite sure this comes problem comes from EA app. Since Origin replacement for Ea app, BF3 also stopped working (doesn-t launch)
In my case for example I can play BF1 perfectly, so I tried setting EA app "go offline", and launch BF1, well then the same happens there. So I think the link between BF4 and EA app is the problem.
EDIT; I moverd punkbuster files from wow64sys to system32, and allowed them in firewall, now punkbuster test is all green but same problem persists,
