DICE posted an alert on its support forums for Battlefield 4 (http://www.joystiq.com/game/battlefield-4) to warn players of ongoing connectivity issues across multiple platforms. This is the latest update in a string of problems the game has faced since its launch in late October, which has seen multiple patches go live in the past few weeks.

The game's support forums note that the developer is "continuing to monitor some intermittent connectivity issues affecting some players across various platforms." Though no other information is provided in the alert, DICE'sBattlefield 4 issues tracker (http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf4/forum/threadview/2955065670203355766/) mentioned that it is investigating a bug that is "accounting for a large amount of crashes" on Xbox 360.

Among the other problems encountered by Battlefield players are reports that the game's China Rising DLC (http://www.joystiq.com/2013/12/23/report-battlefield-4-dlc-purchase-fails-to-upgrade-to-next-gen/) failed to carry over from PS3 to PS4, for players that made the switch to the next-gen system. As a result of its constant problems, multiple law firms (http://www.joystiq.com/2013/12/21/ea-finds-itself-in-third-law-firms-iron-sights-over-battlefield/) have launched investigations into EA to determine whether the publisher intentionally mislead investors on the game's state leading up to its release.
