We know we still have a ways to go with fixing the game \u2014 it is absolutely our No. 1 priority.\u00a0 The team at DICE is working non-stop to update the game. Since Battlefield 4 China Rising expansion pack was already in the final stages of development by the time issues began with Battlefield 4, we decided to fulfill our promise to deliver it this week, but we&#8217;re not moving onto future projects or expansions until we sort out all the issues with Battlefield 4. We know many of our players are frustrated, and we feel their pain. We will not stop until this is right.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The China Rising DLC launched for Battlefield Premium buyers on 3 December, and along with it came a slew of new bugs. For example, players are being kicked from a server seconds after joining, and PC players are still suffering from a one-hit-kill bug.<\/p>\n<p>You can keep up with the Battlefield 4 update over on their <a title=\"Battlefield 4 Control Room\" href=\"http:\/\/battlelog.battlefield.com\/bf4\/forum\/threadview\/2955065219584248915\/\" target=\"_blank\">Battlelog website<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h6>Source: <a title=\"Polygon\" href=\"http:\/\/www.polygon.com\/2013\/12\/4\/5175588\/ea-halts-battlefield-4-expansions\" target=\"_blank\">Polygon<\/a><\/h6>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">More gaming news<\/h3>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/news\/60790-gt6-micro-transactions-pretty-cars-for-a-pretty-penny.html\">GT6 micro-transactions: pretty cars for a pretty penny<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/news\/60789-itunes-sa-voucher-codes-now-available-through-fnb.html\">iTunes SA voucher codes now available through FNB<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/news\/60783-bethesda-wants-public-testers-for-unannounced-games.html\">Bethesda wants public testers for unannounced games<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/news\/60535-game-to-phone-voip-calls-with-razer-comms-android-app.html\">Game to phone VoIP calls with Razer Comms Android app<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>DICE is forced to halt production on Battlefield 4 expansion packs while they scramble to fix disastrous bugs<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":157,"featured_media":57637,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_sma_x_autopost_status":"idle","_sma_x_autopost_error":"","_sma_x_post_id":"","_sma_x_attempts":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[31,5693,709,813],"class_list":["post-60793","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-business","tag-active","tag-battlefield-4","tag-dice","tag-electronic-arts"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/60793","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/157"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=60793"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/60793\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/57637"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=60793"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=60793"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=60793"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
