"Waiting for game to exit"
Since the update i have the problem that i can't connect to any server at all. Everytime i try to join a server i just get the message "Waiting for game to exit" even though it didnt start yet. Yeste...
I have the same problem with Battlefield 3. I've tried Chrome, Edge, and Firefox. However, I did figure out a way to get it to work (though it doe not fix the problem).
Steps:
1) Try to join a game. Let it say "Waiting for game to exit" until it gives up and says "ERROR Could not launch game. Please make sure it's installed correctly" or "ERROR Could not communicate with BF3. Please use the Task Manager to close it down."
2) Once you get one of those messages, hit the yellow "Reconnect" button and then immediately click the "Servers" button that will appear in the same area where the reconnect button was.
After you follow those steps it should say Joining Server > Connecting and let you in.
Hope this helps. Though if someone knows how to fix the problem all-together, that would be great.
this works thanks
