ParticipantI had it as well tonight mate.

Participantthere’s a notice up on the bf3/origin/homepage saying “The “Game disconnected: you were kicked by Punkbuster errors” are being looked into right now.”
so it must be affecting loads of people..

ParticipantYea, it’s been there for the last 14 hours. Although I don’t believe it, I read on the Battlelog forums it’s to do with some hackers who are members of Artificial Aim (A hack development website) who have managed to autoban thousands of innocent players through some punk buster exploit. The other theory, (and much more likely) that there is a problem with the PnkBstrB.exe file that sits in the reg. Either way, the only option for now is to play on non-punkbuster servers, which at the moment are extremely well populated.

Participanthmm
sounds sheite..are the non punkbuster servers ranked?
and are they full to the brim with ghey haxoring 13 year olds (not you max.. you sound like youre older than 13!! haha
) who will rape you till they get bored or get called to have their dinner?p.s. anyone know the cheapest place for a 3TB drive? (looks like Scan is atm)

ParticipantNope, not ranked. And yes, the large conquest servers are full of cheats, however, we played some Hardcore Squad rush last night and it was fine. (Thanks to Paddy, Spunks, Doc & Turks for playing on a non-PB server so I could get a game)

ParticipantOr World’s Slyest hacker
Dumbest maybe..
Just read an interesting post on the issue. Seems that the evidence shows it’s only affecting 32bit versions of Windows. The plot thickens.

ParticipantAhh.. hopefully my new rig will be in place for the weekend.. that’s x64 so I might get a game.

ParticipantI’m having this problem too but atleast yesterday I was able to play. Got disconnected once if I recall right. I am on 64 though.
