I had the same issue last night! I came across these tips.
here's a list of things you can to try out:
-run the game as administrator(if this does not work try the following below)
-right click the icon>properties>compatability>run with *whatever OS you have*
-tick the *run as administrator* box in properties
-try and run bf3(if this doesnt work, do the following below)
-restart the pc
-go back to properties>compatability>uncheck run with *whatever OS you have*
-go to properties>uncheck run as administrator
-go on battlelog
-try and join a server
another solution:
-go on origin
-right click bf3 in origin
-click on "show game details"
-click on the "cloud storage" tab
-if cloud storage shows up as ticked UNCHECK that bad boy
-restart
-try and load up bf3
In order to fix it for me, I didn't do anything. Just kept trying it over and over until I finally joined a multiplayer game. I realized it didn't work for certain servers. I haven't tryed on those servers today though.
Google Chrome
its not working so far, i will keep trying with differnet servers
Well, it works for me perfectly today. I didn't do anything except wait. Origin/EA really should get their thumbs out of their asses and pay attention to the trash they give us.
ooh man, have you downloaded the Bf3 game manager thing?
Finally got it to work! had to repair the install with Origins stupid tool. thanks for your help guys!
