Punkbuster

[Fi$hy]

First off, I honestly believe Punkbuster is a POS, it only defends against exploits that only a stupid fool would try and use (e.g the hacks that are documented and recorded)

Secondly, Punkbuster is what causes that lovely "varifying client data" as punkbuster feels it is necerssary to scan us all before we even enter.

BUT

We do need punkbuster for clan games (unfortunetly I can't use my hallwacks ) last night people were being kicked.

I used to get kicked from server's for punkbuster issues, what had happened is my firewall had blocked the updates, so I had to go to the punkbuster website and download it manually.

However it might be a server issue, but from the fact that it was only 2 / 3 players getting kicked suggests that it was caused by an "invalid" client-side version of PB

What do you guys think?

is there nothing like a program where any of the games files get changed or added the PB just rapes you, no matter what it is?

I tried to explain it ingame after Haven had disabled it.

Basically our version of PB was broken or corrupt or something. It can be fixed easily enough. I'll get on to Haven or KillCrazy and see if they can get it fixed up for us.

Cheers,
