EA, Origin, and BF

[N00berG00ber]

is anyone else having some major problems with bf3 and bf4?

bf4 keeps force closing on me, and its hard to get into a server. in bf3, there is really NO ONE on... and i cant join games. comes up with errors...

your not using a 3rd party firewall are you? and or have the windows one on uber block everything mode?

nope... nothing special of any sorts. i reinstalled it too. also thought it was my OC, so i put everything back to stock, and still no go.

this is weird...

Try joining servers with at least 3 open slots (BF4) the connection bug seems to be for games with only one slot open.

ya i tried a system restore, and still got errors and force closes. what was scaring me was that one of my other games forced closed too, so i thought it was a bad OC...

 

[Dude]

I think your system is fine with the OC. BF always has had issues

 

[badger906]

have you done the usual and made sure all your drivers are up to date, including and mainly the gpu ones?.

a bad overclock tends to cause instability, such as crashes or blue screens. and often also a machine wont get past post if its iffy.

yuppp im all good. what was weird was that at -120 offset, i was getting a lot of force closing on apps, windows explorer, etc. i uped it to -115 and now nor more errors. so i think a core was just failing despite the fact that it passed prime and IBT.

yea, it keeps crashing mid game...

That could also affect other EA servers ? Yesterday when I was playing Battlefield P4F was some lag. But after it was established.

Have you looked to EA's forum or the game's forum? Perhaps the issue is being discussed there along with some possible solutions.

Sometimes I find going to the game's site yields better results since they specialize in that game. I even point this out in step 17/18 of my http://www.sevenforums.com/gaming/77293-tips-troubleshooting-game-issues.html guide

Good luck.

Unlike most forums, EA's BF forum site is atrocious and you will never get help there

Maybe not but it doesn't mean you can't try. And if nothing else I'm pretty sure there's a tech help section there - Forums - Battlelog / Battlefield 4

 

[N00berG00ber]

ya others are having the same issues, apparently a lot.

 

[N00berG00ber]

i seem to be having a bit of problems with other games aswell crashing. i just clean installed my gpu driver, and re-enabled the wifi and ethernet port in bios, so maybe that will fix it

Apparently you have never been to the BF forums, there is no help there....just a bunch of raging kids. I would not have made that comment if I didn't know how those forums were.

Have you looked at my guide to see if there's anything in there that can help with your overall gaming experience, to include updating you DirectX files?

 

[N00berG00ber]

ya ive done all that. i fixed my crashing problems. it was casue i disabled the ethernet controller in bios. so all good.
