    I get to play like… not much.. and tonight i have had to deal with this….

    sometimes i get..


    Game disconnected: you were kicked by PunkBuster. Stated reason: PunkBuster kicked player ‘Cha0s3ngine’ (for 0 minutes) … RESTRICTION: Service Communication Failure: PnkBstrB.exe driver failure (PnkBstrK.sys) ffab

    and sometimes…..


    Game disconnected: you were kicked from the game.

    there’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..

    Yea, 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.

    hmm
    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 :mrgreen: ) 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)

    Nope, 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)

    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.
