I've finally got it to work by disabling the firewall of my internet box (router).
After that everything work great and I can now play the game. 🙂
Hello.
I'm stuck in the same boat.
Have also tried most so called "solutions":
What I find strange in my case is that the 40050000 error has not been consistent.
First time I started the game after downloading I got the 40050000 error, closed and restarted the game, no error and connected immediately to the ea server.
But the joy was shortlived, I instead got a controller bug where the car would only turn left and the handbrake was stuck on.
Closed the game once again to google solutions for the controller problem, restarted the game some 25-30 min later and now I once again got a 40050000 error.
Restarted the game and no 40050000 error, but still could not get the controller to work. Closed the game to unplug my controller and try to play with just the keyboard.
Since then I have been stuck with the 40050000 error...
I've also try to install the game on my laptop. It don't work either and show the same error.

DICE TeamGreat news! Thanks for sharing the solution.. 🙂
Turning off a firewall is accepted as a solution? Wow!
Anyway I have tried everything to try and get he game to connect, is it really 2016 and I am having to muck about with ports and firewalls to get a AAA title working on a perfectly normal setup?
I really don't know where to go with it.
Can u please help me on how to disable the firewall for the router.. im using windows 10
