Thanks to you, I just downloaded and installed Origin and it worked! Thank you. When I bought the game through Steam it lead me to download EA app which didn't work. Now it does with Origin thank to you.

@jsowad345 Its because EA App won't download All Microsoft C++ Files. Origin app does. For me, I just manually installed C++ 2013 x64 from Microsoft and everything worked fine.

@rec0n_1996 Hey dude, It is not working even though i downloaded C++ 2013 x64 as well as all the other versions. I bought BF4 on saturday (thru EA) and still troubleshooting it but not working whatsoever. Any ideas ? I tried everything mentionned on the helps and the forums, and for instance BF3 works fine without downloading anything.
Btw there is no more origin, now it is EA app. Thanks for any help you can provide 🙂
