Please only post your experiences in this thread, please dont take it off topic.

The aim of this thread is to get together a list of people that are fed up with the current punkbuster situation, where its causing game slike COD4 and BF2 to crash.

They've known about it for months, ever since they introduced the new PB system with the PnkbstrA.exe and PnkBstrB.exe processes

I know I am not the only one who's games crash with looping sound in PB servers. This is especially prevalent in Vista i have found, and no solution.

So please can everyone who has issues with the current version of PB please post here with your experiences so I can show EvenBalance this thread so they might do something about it!

EDIT: Sign this petition if you can, added oomph to the argument

i have both games and they run perfectly and i have no idea what the above is, ive never had issues with software that run the above processes so maybe its just your PC ? **i run Vista here and in my experience its just as stable as xp**

Theres always one! I dont care if yours works, its the thousands of peoples that dont work that im interested in
 
I am having consistent "Loss of packets" disconnections with PB & Battlefield 2 on my #2 PC but none with my #1 PC.

A quick straw poll with my other "Squad members" confirms they have no "evenbalance issues" too.

My Squad. :)

Spongmonkeydeathpig - Colonel
Spongmonkeydeathdog - Lieutenant Colonel
Spongmonkeydeathgnu - Gunnery Sergeant
Spongmonkeydeathtrap - Sergeant
 
problems here on my clans server. its a royal pain having to reset the server roughly every 3 maps

signed even if its simply for my own sanity.

btw evenbalance make punkbuster. its not a program your going to have problems with. PB is the problem :)
 
Yeah I keep getting kicked 3 seconds into the games because of Punkbuster, full retail, latest patch, updated punkbuster ect :(
 
Is there actually any proof that punkbuster is killing your systems?

I know BF2 was pretty horribly leaky and buggy when it first came out, still the same?
 
Its PB conflicting with other programs thats causing it.
Both BF2 and COD4 hardlock at random points - its definately punkbuster as on non PB servers and in singleplayer its fine.
I've tried everything I can but still no fix.
It seems to be affecting more the 8800 series cards so could be an nvidia/PB conflict.
Either way, i know there are a lot of people in the same boat as me
 
Always been a problem for me, but only in Vista. Causes CoD2 and CoD4 to crash, OR not update, resulting in me being kicked from the servers.
 
apparently I'm refusing requests :confused:


Still I've found a few well admined pb' less servers to play cod4 on.

any hackers that do come one don't last anywhere near as long as on pb servers too :p
 
PB doesn't like 64-bit, at least in Crysis. It forces me to play in 32-bit if I want to play on a PB enabled server, which reduces my performance. Apart from that, I've never had any major problems with it.
 
i had to uninstall ET:QW due to constant pb kicks ranging from lost packets to other stuff i can't remember. re-installing and manually updating didn't work so i gave up. i'm on vista 64 with an 8800 gtx
 
i have to manualy update COD4
means i sometimes log on choose a server start playing then get kicked after about 20secs for something thats "automatic" its sucks

If your going to have that sort of attitude to the people that are not familiar or question it dont expect many signatures from the type of people where its fine for them.

If the game works perfectly fine for certain people why should they sign? Its for the people that have the issues not for random people to just sign it for the sake of your benefit (and perhaps thousands of others).

Remember this is a public forum open for discussion.
