Re: Battlefield 4 Existing player profile data appears to be damaged and cannot be used

Maybe it doesn't work for everyone but, it does for me.

1. Turn on your 360. Do not start bf4
2. Delete your player profile data, and clear the cache.
3. Start bf4, make all of your adjustments. When your done the game should ask you if you want to save the changes...yes you do.
3. Exit the game
4. Insert a USB thumb drive.
5. Find your player profile data file and copy it to the thumb drive (a cloud account might also work if no thumb drive is available. I cannot confirm that)
6. Leave the thumb drive in your 360, and start the game, or turn your 360 off, then start bf4.
7. When the game starts you should be prompted to "select a device".
8. Select the main 360 hard drive. Do not select the memory unit or cloud saved game if you used that.
9. The game should say "loading player profile...ext"

All, or most, of your settings should be in tact, and no more error.

Do not move your player profile data, only copy it. I made all of my adjustments on the test range before copying the profile to my thumb drive.

Again, this may not work for everyone. Good luck...hope this helps at least one person. 🙂

    I was the fool who bought second assault after having so many issues with freezing in China Rising.  I never had an issue with a corrupted profile until I downloaded Second Assault.  This game so far has been more frustrating then fun.  I tried the fix of deleting my saved profile.  That didn't work.  I'm going to try backing up my profile on a USB and see how that works.  EA should give all of us the next expansion free for all this headache.  Even when I was able to play Second Assault the game kept freezing.  Not fun.😕mileyfrustrated:
