Ok I tried to get help at the Punkbuster website, but theres no support there.. Well nothing that can help me.. So I'm trying here!
My Punkbuster for CoD2 keeps messing up, it seems to randomly kick me for everything and give me temporary GUID bans.
It started when I went in a server (clean - i always am) and I got a GUID ban. wtf?! no reason was given or anything, I dont know if a reason is usually given but it seemed strange. I typed /reconnect and I wasnt banned any more which was weird.. So I just ignored it and played.. Then I got kicked (0 minutes) for No Packet Flow.. What the hell is that? I reconnected again and got kicked for PB INIT Failure (0 minutes again)
I thought it might be the server so I tried another server that Im sure Ive never been in before and it said BANNED by server admin. So I tried another server, which was better, but I got kicked about 3 times for No Packet Flow again.
That was enough 4 the day so I left it. Then today I tried it again, got kicked for No Packet flow again twice and then later GUID ban again. Now Im not GUID banned any more, it lifted itself again. So I tried re-installing the game therefore reinstalling Punkbuster and I got 'CD key in use'. Im not sure if this is anything to do with PB, it might just be a firewall problem or something. I played around with it for a bit and got it fixed, but then Im still getting kicked for No Packet Flow.
Soo, any ideas? and if I get GUID banned again for some reason and it doesnt lift itself and Im banned forever, how can I get rid of that? Its unfair if I get banned when im not doing anything wrong :mellow:
Thanks
edit - Ok now when I go in a server it says *WARNING* PB Reports I am Using an Old Version c1.252
or something like that, but when I go to evenbalance.com and update with pbsetup.exe it says that I am fully updated. After a while of PB spamming the server it kicks me for PB INIT failure again :(
