In this post, we will be discussing various methods to fix the Battlefield 4 server issues on Xbox consoles. This first-person shooter managed to grab quite a lot of positive reception for its multiplayer mode, gameplay, and graphics. However, at the same time, it is no hidden secret that it didn’t manage to meet everyone’s expectations in the multiplayer domain.
And every now and then, it shows an unfortunate glimpse of the same. Since the past few days, a slew of complaints has lined up across the Reddit and EA Forums regarding different types of server issues. While a few aren’t able to locate any in-game servers, others are able to atleast get hold of the servers but couldn’t connect to them. They are rather stuck in the queue and aren’t able to join any empty servers.

Some users are also complaining about receiving the “Unknown Error Code: 1″ issues while trying to connect to the Battlefield 4 servers. Along the same lines, a few complaints are also regarding the “Failed to join the game as its current state does not allow for a connection” related to the Battlefield 4 servers. Even when there are zero filters applied, only a few servers are available in the Server Browser.
In some instances, a few servers do populate in Favorites or the Recently Played list, which is much more than the Server Browser. So since the users are only witnessing a handful of servers in the Server Browser, they have no choice but to choose from the Recently Played or Favorites section. This then leads to overloaded servers which leads to high waiting queues.
So what’s the EA stance on this? Well, they are pretty much aware of it and have taken note of the same. But as of now, they haven’t released any fix as such. With that said, there do exist a few workarounds that shall help you fix the Battlefield 4 server issues on Xbox consoles. And this guide shall make you aware of just that. So without further ado, let’s get started.
How to Fix Battlefield 4 Server Issues on Xbox
As of now, there seems to be just a single workaround that has worked out for many users. Here’s what you need to do:
- Head over to the Manage game and add ons section.
- Now delete the reserved data as well as delete your data just from the Xbox.
- Then relaunch the game and click Quick Match.
- Finally, load into the game, quit the game, and then go directly to the server browser.
That’s it, it should fix the Battlefield 4 server issues on Xbox consoles. The mileage for this fix seems to vary, while it had worked with full efficacy for some, others weren’t able to taste success. Do let us know in the comments section if you were able to rectify this issue via any workaround.
