PB Kick Issue

Post by woowoo »

DICE released a new patch today and PB is kicking most people. This is the second time this has happened and once again DICE is saying "play on non-PB servers" until they fix it.

I went into the control panel to temporarily turn off PB but I'm unable to do so - the check box is inaccessible. Thoughts?

If you want to disable PB you can't have rank enabled.

Here is what it's kicking me for.

PunkBuster Server: RESTRICTION: MySoldierName(slot #1) [MyGUID(-) MyIP] Corrupted File/Memory [98080696]
PunkBuster Server: Kick Command Issued (RESTRICTION: Corrupted File/Memory [98080696]) for (slot#1)

I tried doing pbupdate on the server and clicking on pbsvc inside the bf3 folder to re-install PB but nothing works. :cry:

Looks like if you set pb_sv_restrictions to 0 the game will not kick you, you can keep PB enabled and it will not kick you.

I'm sorry, I meant the PB kick issue is supposed to be fixed. I have not heard anything about the game update.

I haven't seen anything official from DICE. So can we set our PB configs back to normal?

Is this OFFICIALLY fixed. Our 2 servers have been full 24/7 and I don't want to break it by touching anything until I get official word.

The official word:

For players who were getting kicked yesterday due to corrupt file/memory, this issue was solved yesterday evening and was because of a version mismatch between the updated client and Punkbuster.

And if you get the patch updating error, you have to uninstall the game and download it all over again.

Only took 5 + hrs.

Idiots and their broke ass updates.
