Ive heard people have tried clearing their origin cache and it doesnt fix the problem. As I said, I dont use Origin so I dont know how to work around that. But the problem is in that online saved game data that is out of date. If you can find that and delete it youre fixed. It may be that the fix isnt working on Origin because its then automatically updating your next round data and then stopping - which means you fixed the glitch and then it came straight back on. If you disable your game saves that are uploading onto Origin's online cache - as Blueberry suggests above - that will probably be a permanent Origin fix. Can you try it and let everyone know if it worked?
I hope the guys posting on this after me who use Origin can work the problem out and provide a fix - and some seem to be doing that. Good luck!
ps just to let you know, since i deleted my out of date online BF5 saved data 5 days ago I havent had a single infinite loading screen.
@Tileux no it did not work i have tryed everything in this entire thread. nothing works the game is broken

Youve disabled your online saved games as @EA_Blueberry suggested in post 722?
You have saved game data on your harddrive and online. All youve got to do to fix this is delete one of them and disable one of them. Then there is no conflicting data when the the rounds load.
Since its the online data that is not updating you should delete that data and then disable any more online saves of game data. That is what is causing the problem and thats the fix.
Technically, the problem isnt in the game. Its in the online saving interface with the various platforms.

Have you tried clearing your cache AND disabling the online save games, as @EA_Blueberry suggests in post 723?
You have saved game data online on your platform (in your case Origin) and in your harddrive. The problem is caused because that saved game data is inconsistent. All you have to do to fix the problem is delete one of those sets of data and then stop it resaving. Because its the online save data thats not properly updating you should delete your online game save data and - at the same time - disable your online game saves. That way the conflict disappears and it shouldnt reoccur.
Technically, the problem isnt in the game. Its in the online game save interface with the various platforms - PS4, Xbox, Origin.

For PS4 I guarantee that fix. Its probably that easy on xbox too, although I cant guarantee that because I dont use an xbox.
Ive explained what the problem is in my post 719. Someone with a PC should be able to run with that info and work out a fix for Origin. If I used Origin I might be able to do that but I just dont use it. Havent for a long time.
By the way, I just looked in my Origin system (I have Origin but havent used it for years). Did you try the Restore Last Local Saved Game option after you disabled the cloud saves? Thats just below the option to disable cloud saves. To find that you go into your game library, right click, go into the Game properties and then choose the Cloud Saves tab. Not sure if that will make any difference but its worth a try.

Why there is no option (a button) in Origin platform settings, which let you "Delete previous Cloud Saves" , currently, the only existing control you can do to the cloud saves is that button called "Restore your last local save files", but it sucks, because it's not the true local save file, it actually is also a cloud save file, just a previous version one, among your cloud saved files. Why EA not adding this convenient one button to delete or refresh your cloud data, but asking players to learn those tedious workaroud ? I realized that many cloud service's logic of syncing data is , if your client side has any data changing, then the cloud side will only update the changing part, not by changing or uploading the entire new local file. Now, with cloud syncing service easily occurs inconsistent sync, then I think a function or button that allow update/refresh your cloud data not by usual patial change, but by deleting entire old cloud data, and not partially, but re-uploading entire new local file, is important. Also, provide several more previous editions of your cloud save filed is important, too, so that you will have more options to choose which version of the data to recover/retrieve from, and possibly one of those versions would function well.
Also, player's scoreboard statistic data shouldn't ever be deleted, it should be recorded in other servers side, but not store in this kind of cloud save data which should only store and affect your game settings or configurations. ( Yes, the stastic data also somewhat need to generate or store on your local and cloud side , for example, your level of rank or data of unlocked items, but it shouldn't be missing even if you delete both your local and cloud data, because I guess there should be another sever dedicated to record and store your statistic data. These important statistic data should only be reset or deleted by either an account ban/delete, or you specifically send a request/command to order the server delete your statistic data, if you want to re-play the game from scratch.)
