Some games share the same PB GUID such as Battlefield 4 and Battlefield 3. In older games the PB GUID was based on the CD-Key of a game therefore each game had a unique PB GUID. However today more and more games are generating the PB GUID from an account system such as Steam or Origin. This means if you get banned in one game you will be banned for all games that share the same GUID on servers that enable the Cross Game Bans option. This feature is optional for server admins at PBBans and is not enabled by default. More information about Cross Game Bans can be found at the following: http://www.pbbans.com/forums/enforce-cross-game-bans-t147262.html The best solution is to not buy games on Origin or Steam using the same account that was previously used to cheat in another game.

I blame it on excessive number of stats items being tracked by the server. If you think about it the more stats tracking they add to games the worse they seem to get. The old games never tracked much if anything and they ran much smoother. I'm wondering what the QA guys were up to during testing of this patch. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fNsr7Edq7e4 http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf4/forum/threadview/2979150493816594684/ http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf4/forum/threadview/2979150493816845808/ http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf4/en/forum/threadview/2955064773357917195/ http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf4/forum/threadview/2955065224207238087/ In other news R21 server files contain Second Assault maps (XP0_Caspian, XP0_Firestorm, XP0_Metro, XP0_Oman).

Seems official servers are locked to the max slots that dice defines for a gametype. http://www.reddit.com/r/battlefield_4/comments/1wjne0/server_update_106318/

That was referring to DICE games only not all of EA. Plus EA doesn't own Respawn.

It grabs all the info by looking up the MD5 checksum of the pbss and matches it to the log. Guid info shown on the pbss can be modified so we don't use them when verifying log data.

With the MPi being so big I don't trust it to get the right alias automatically. However I changed it so that if it doesn't find an alias it will put "Blank" in the alias name.

Which may be causing some game issues. New server release is coming which I assume will correct it. I seriously think DICE / EA needs to have a beta channel like many major games do on steam.

Download and extract to your pb folder. It's in the game install directory. Or if you use Windows Vista or later it's located in the user app folder which you can use the following to find. http://www.pbbans.com/info-center-clientlog.html#win7vista

Even Balance has dropped support for Call of Duty 4. The CoD4 section on the EB website has been removed. Streaming support will continue for the time being. http://www.pbbans.com/forums/files/call-of-duty-4-windows-file94.html http://www.pbbans.com/forums/files/call-of-duty-4-linux-file93.html
