Behind you... Naked!
I have a few days ago, tried to install BF4 from an AMD ATI Grapics card purchase, but I failed massively.

After some messing about, having to download some AMD origin rubbish, and failin to install the game ky, I received an EMail telling me that it is down to an error and that it will be sorted soon, I shal receive my new key and then I could continue.

Anyway, last night, I had an EMail with a new key, I run that origin rubbish and sure enough, in just a few short all night and all day today, I finally had BF4

I dont seem to have had an ISO ( although I may yet find it ) and so, I cannot back it up yet, but I have tried to play it and yet more junk is wanting to come before I can play it.

This is incredibly useless.

I am now no longer liking the game already and I have not yet played it.

Sod this, after almost an hour of fumbling in the dark and getting nowhere, I download a hookie copy, install it, crack it, and away I go.

Nice game.

Why oh why do the makers of these games make it so hard that when you try the legal stuff, you get quite honestly piddled on from a great height, and yet you get a pirated version, and it just works fine.

I think I am once again about to start on a rampage in support of Piracy.
 
Its really easy to install BF4 and get it working fine... You hit install come back then press play which takes you to battelog, pick a server and go.

I missed the Beta, so tried this route to see what it was like, the campaign worked great, for about an hour, lockup, no further progress.

Not bothered, seen enough & went out and bought a physical (legit!) copy.

Don't bother.

Bar trying a single player version of a game (as multi won't work) prior to buying, what purpose does it serve?

BF4 and many other games are all about multiplayer which 99% of bootleg software won't give you access to, quite rightly.
 
actually, im having a ball ache with one of the AMD codes.... says its been used, when it hasnt, got in contact with AMD they say tell the shop... i dont see how its ocuk's fault though.

*sadface*
 
OP you've kinda lost me...
AMD ran out of serial codes for BF4, they've since restocked and have started sending them out.

In order to play BF4 you need Origin installed, an EA provided Game platform/DRM, AMD have no involvement with this software.

In order to install BF4...
Install Origin
Click Activate product
Type in the serial number provided by AMD
This will add the BF4 license to your account

If by the More Rubbish you mean Punkbuster then yes this is the anti cheat program that is used.

As for fumbling around in the dark? It's fairly straightforwards
You not used steam at all? Same principal
As for the ISO there isn't one.
As for Backing up you just copy the Origin folder

Which code has been used?
The AMD redemption key for the AMD rewards site or the BF4 serial?
