Battlefield 3 won't launch from battlelog

[Sir B. Fannybottom]

So I installed BF3 and all it's origin and battlelog junk, I try to boot from battlelog, and it doesn't work so I try with firefox and it still doesn't work... I googled for a good hour and I tried having no oc on my proc and video card, and with the ATI drivers for BF3, still doesn't work. I tried uninstalling battlelog and reinstalling and it still won't work! This is driving my crazy atm, can anyone help?


EDIT: and yes when I press "join server" I can see bf3.exe in task manager come up for a few seconds then go away.

[Sir B. Fannybottom]

Nope, I don't have anything on my battle log saying there is maintenance going on or anything.

Have you installed the updates? have you installed Battlelog browser add on? have you the latest version of origin? Is the ports blocked or is BF3 blocked by your firewall?

Yes, yes, yes and I'll check but I don't think it is.

EDIT: Yes it is.

Hi,

Try uninstalling "Battlelog Web Plugins' from "uninstall or change a program".
Also set f0k!ng Origin and Battlefield 3 to run with admin rights
Get into battlelog again, it will prompt to to install the plug-ins again.
Restart your PC

Hope it works

If the game gets stuck in an infinite loading screen (in multiplayer), start / use the game in windowed mode. It doesn't matter if the window takes up all your screen as long as it is in windowed mode you wont have any problems.

I've spent hours with the useless EA support the game is very very buggy. I am extremely angry with this POS game....

I've tried uninstalling battlelog and reinstalling it a good 12 times now, I am currently reinstalling BF3 It for some reason needs to download the 3.9 gig patch twice :c

 

[Sir B. Fannybottom]

It does now! I fixed it!!

http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf3/forum/threadview/2832654624694860787/ I did that, and I ran BF3 in compatibility mode for windows 7 32bit, I haven't tried to see if it crashes after a while because Im just so happy it's finally over and I can sleep!
