Hey,
does anyone know how to integrate my BF4 into Steam? Most of my friends have steam, only a few are using Origin so it would be very nice to be able to use the Steam Interface while playing BF4.
Does anyone know how to do that and can help me? Thank you. :)

Battlefield 4 Steam Keys
Because Steam overlay isn't compatible with 64 bit.
You could do it with Battlefield 3 by simply selecting the origin program as the target program, but with Battlefield 4 64 bit that won't work.

I did that with BF3 and now im searching a way to do the same with BF4. Its a shame i cant use the Steam overlay. I really think steam is much better than origin.

I know and i already did this. But i want to use the Steam overlay while ingame. Right now noone is able to see im even playing, so a lot of friends invite me into games i cant see because of the missing overlay.

How do ?

Since Second Assault came out (possibly due to patch fix), you can run the Steam overlay in-game. You can run it in 64-bit BF4 and you do not have to disable in-game Origin overlay, the game will automatically use the Steam overlay instead if its enabled. To enable Steam overlay in BF4:
In your Steam Library, go to 'Add a Game...' in the bottom left and click 'Add a Non-Steam Game'.
In your list of games generated, select 'Battlefield 4 (64-bit)'
Find Battlefield 4 which should now be in your list of games. Right click on it and select 'Properties'
***Very Important***
Change the target to Origin.exe. It will be in your Origin installation directory.
You can now start up your Steam shortcut which will open up Origin but your status on Steam will say you are playing a non-Steam game Battlefield 4. Open up Battlefield 4 in your Origin library to load up Battlelog. Once you find a server and start up the game, you can now access your Steam overlay in-game by pressing Shift+Tab together. Origin overlay will no longer be available, but its not like anyone uses it anyway.
***NOTE***
Once you are done playing and exit Battlefield 4, your Steam status will remain as you playing Battlefield 4. To change your status you can either open up another Steam game or if you want your status to be not in-game, you will have to close Origin completely.

And this where i get stuck, the games list does not include BF4 at all (also bear in mind that my steam is on another HDD than my origin stuff)
Any help would be greatly appreciated

Sorry for the late response but if BF4 is not in the list you will have to manually find the BF4.exe file yourself by clicking 'Browse' in the same list of games
You will need to find your BF4 directory which will be in Origin GamesBF4
In the main directory you will find two .exe files called bf4.exe and bf4_x86.exe
bf4.exe will be the 64-bit .exe file for the game, use it unless you run the game in 32-bit. If you run the game in 32-bit use the bf4_x86.exe file
Then you can follow the rest of the steps
Hello all, I will cut right to the chase. I bought my girlfriend the premium editions of both Battlefields 4 and 1. I did this through steam and so she had to link her Origin account after the fact to play with me, I purchased the games on origin originally. Battlefield 1 works flawlessly but battlefield 4 does not. For whatever reason, Steam and Origin seem to disagree about whether or not she actually owns premium. Both launchers display the game and title card of 'Battlefield 4 Premium Edition' but after clicking install in the steam launcher and completing the installation, the origin launcher still only has the 'download' option available. For reference, BF1 installed through Steam just fine and can be launched from both platforms. When you click play in Steam, the game will launch as the NON premium edition and will glitch and crash the moment she enters a game. In the 'store' tab in the game all of the DLC's say OWNED though. She cannot even launch the game from the Origin launcher as the only option available is, again, just 'download.' When you click it it errors out and says 'Battlefield 4 Premium Edition is not installed on this PC, please install it.' I am at my wits end with this nonsense. I can prove that I purchased the game and its premium content. I gifted it to her on Steam not too long ago. It even REGISTERS as the premium edition but she can not access those items in game and the entire thing just seems to be corrupted and buggy. I tried validating local files TWICE, both before and after a total uninstallation and reinstallation. Nothing has worked. I am not sure what to do about this. Does anybody have any suggestions? Has anybody had any issues with such things before? I would love some help.
Thanks!!
Thanks!!
