Yep, latest one will patch from any version.

argh i keep getting kicked about 3-4 minutes into mutliplayer games, punkbuster is a load of crap.

Go to punkbusdters website and run PBSETUP.exe and it will update it. Do it a couple of times to make sure.

I now officially hate punkbuster. Ah well, no multilayer for me

What's your error message?

do a punkbuster support ticket, they are usually quite good at sorting issues out, and the new crimbo map is cool!

I'm getting trouble with PB too. Absolutely no point buying this game if you can't go online with it...

WarBird · 25 Dec 2007 at 22:57

update your pb, that's what i did cause i was getting this problem and it was sorted

perox · 25 Dec 2007 at 23:26

Type pb_sv_update in console, that's the easiest way of making sure your pb is up to date.

Did that and it worked, thanks.

The server kicks me out because the Punkbuster exe fails to initialize or something.

Exactly the same problem.

Firewall?

Maybe check your router settings too. Some are quite picky (esp Netgear ones).

Damn, I have a Netgear one

What should I look out for/change?
