  • I have tried restarting my ps4 and I have never played a game of battle field 4 online from my account so I am not banned could you please fix this or tell me something useful so that I can fix this myself 

  • No its a private server admin ban,

    I accused admins of hacking , and got that error, after being booted

    Can you stop posting lies? It's a generic error message that perhaps also shows when one is banned from a server, but it's very clearly not just that. Just today, I've been kicked from many official servers with cheaters (PCs are complete infested, every operation lobby - like 5 at least - I've joined today had a cheater, and every single one ended with the cheater kicking out everyone by the end of match), and it shows the same error message when I tried to join another server through server browser. The only solution at that point is to restart the game.

  • error code 1, is a ban, 

    I have four other accounts with the same ban message, after I start accusing admins

    of hacking on private servers.

    The other servers are OK, and i can join no problems,

    Just the ones I am banned from, instead of giving the

    message, you are banned from this server,

    unknown error 1 comes up.

    so unless, the other accounts have been hacked, ITS

    A BAN.

    guess i banned myself then, because i've gotten that error on my own rented servers. and am currently getting it on a server owned by a friend.

    Hi @egi3dzny13lw, that's not ban, it will say in game that you are banned not error 1.

    @defyreality, @Shion_Michiking have you tried our connective guide and see if that helps? 

     

    Let us know what you tried.

  • Sorry its a sneaky ban.

    I still have old accounts which still come up with error code 1,

    only on a certain server-  that does it. maybe you can tell which server

    you are getting the error on, and i will confirm the people doing it.

    You can try to fix it, by the information given here. or

    accept you upset admins on a certain server, maybe c word was mentioned.

    Its like they have blocked access to the server, and the error code 1, which is

    normally, a bad internet connection, comes up, everytime you try to join.

    Maybe EA, couldnt ask me for the server in question and look into it.

    I've been banned from player run servers mid-match. When I try reconnecting to the server from which I was banned, I get error code 1. So it can mean you're banned.

    You can connect to servers you're banned from in spectator mode.

    I believe that it is a ban, but perhaps it’s not intentional. It’s a phantom ban. 

    here’s why: I play on Xbox on a private server that I am an admin on. Every so often, I get the error code 1. 

    The only way to fix it is for the server owner to remove me from the admin list, ban me, then un-ban me, then add me back to admin.

    Fixes it every time. I’ve used this method to fix other players who get the error but are not admins. My situation is worse because  I am an admin and only the owner can fix it. 

    So banning and then unbanning definitely fixes it. Can’t tell you why, but that is it. 

  • I get an error on both games. Restarted my ps4. I see only a few servers with very little players. It looks like your servers have problems. 

  • Hello everyone,

    I played BF1 for years and never had this error code. After two years of not playing this game, I decided to buy a PS4 again and go for it.

    I’ve never been banned or had any limitations. I keep having the same error code. No matter if you reinstall the game, use the quick match or operations. I keep having the same error code.

    Is there any way of just contacting EA and solve this problem more people have. I read it might have to do with your profile and Origin. What are the stes I could try there to make it work?

    Thanks in advance.

  • If you read the previous original post, 

    the player specified, that he, could not.

    play a server, without getting the error code 1.

    I still have other game accounts, I cannot play.

    because, I mouthed off at hackers. And admins, 

    banned me, but, they did not ban me through the proper

    channels, they, made the error  code 1, to come up.

    I still have two accounts, that i check every year.

    and they still have the error code 1 error.d

    My account has never encountered, that error, and it is not

    a BUG. bug = word bosses say, when they want to gas light

    you.

    Maybe EA, could look into it, for you, they did MAKE THE GAME.

    or under their control, they did. and they cannot tell you , how they

    are blocking your account on their servers, by, alternate means.??

    btw, over the  xmas holidays, i enjoyed playing, with, heaps of obvious hackers.

    thank you EA,

    I have encountered this error many times on the rented server I usually play on.  The only fix that ever worked was getting the owner to ban, then un-ban me.  This was a huge PITA. 

    However, recently I had luck with the method that others have described, which is select Quickmatch, wait for it to say its searching for a game, then cancel the search.  You may need to do this a couple times for it to work. This also works if you are stuck with the "joining..." message and can't join other servers.

    Moreover though, many of the servers are glitched again and its obvious something is wrong with the rented servers.  This hasn't happened for at least six months, but its preventing many people who have paid for rented severs to not be able to use their server.

    EA, PLEASE FIX THE RENTED SERVERS.
