it is a match to the hash of a known cheat file
as for it being used in many countries, it just means you are not the only one using it and more than likely will gather another ban
no sense in beating a dead horse
valid bans are not lifted, no matter who has the GUID
you will need to purchase a new copy of the game from a reputable retail outlet to avoid this issue in the future
you are mistaken
valid bans are never lifted
we ban GUIDs, not people
also, that GUID has been used in Canada, Germany, Russian Federation, Romania, Brazil, United States, Italy & India
seems it has been shared/sold all over the world
i have like 70+ games on there. wait, that is on my main account. i have access to 2 more shared accounts.
i think not selling it on steam is almost a deal breaker it itself.
diablo iii will be the only foreseeable title that i will not question, not being on steam
gaming industry has priced themselves out of the home entertainment market as well
used to be you could buy a new game for the price of a 12 pack. don't like it? buy a new one next time you get more beer
at $60.00 a throw, i really think about all aspects of a game before i purchase it
wtf do you do with all the disks?
i have mountains of them.....over flowing boxes of boxes...it is annoying after so many years
may not be a big deal for you. maybe you will buy anything from whatever outlet EA chooses. go right ahead
after the last several years, i am very selective how & where i spend my gaming money.
if you want to cheer just because you are a BF series fan, more power to you.
i for one, will call the good and bad as i see it.
i really would be pleased if BF3 turns out not to be BC2/MoH rehashed.
i would also like the option to purchase it from where i please.
i am sorry if my comment offended you. trust me that was not the intent
i honestly hung up my trolololololl0olo hat a while back

Early today, we posted an article stating that punkbuster will be used in Battlefield 3. This news was taken from a recent podcast with a EA Russia representative. It turns out there was a translation error in this and instead of it being confirmed, it was more used as an example of anti-cheat. We apologize for the mix up of information and as soon as we hear more news in regards to the anti-cheat system, we will keep you up to date.
a French Moderator will respond. your patience is appreciated. i apologize for google translate butchering the French language.
