CoD4 is one of the best games we support (PB wise). Full PB integration, demos and access to server files. I hope they add PB again honestly because I'm sick of the new games with no server files of any kind with bullsh*t reasons and games that don't even integrate PB correctly at all. /end rant :P Public server files alone won't make MW3 PC a hit but it's one step in making other devs realize they are running out of excuses with one of the biggest games reversing it's server policy from only one provider to letting anyone host.

Well if they have internet yes. Not sure if they will have a true LAN option that doesn't require the internet. After all the RSP crap from EA and Black Ops, I'm just happy to see a major game returning to it's roots for this.

It's funny though. In CoD4 I just ran CoD4, nothing else required. To play BC2 I run Playclaw (to take screenshots) and X-Mouse (because in-game binds don't allow two functions on the mouse wheel). So if the same limitations apply to BF3 I will have to run Playclaw, X-Mouse, Origin and Firefox. Disconnect button is replaced with Alt + F4 :P

Added an alternate banlist that does not contain the alias, user ip and ban reason in order to reduce file size for those that wish to use it. The link (called Slim Banlist File) can be found on a game overview page. Also added a Statistics block to the main site

Updated the first post with info of the final release.

We have updated our Terms of Service to add: http://www.pbbans.com/terms-of-service.html Also updated the layout a bit too.

Sadly they are not. It's been confirmed many times now that there are no public server files of any kind for BF3. So it's basically BC2 take 2 for server policies. It's really sad because I was really hoping for unranked server files to help boost the eSports community for lower ping servers and LAN tournaments but now we will be facing this again: http://forums.electronicarts.co.uk/battlefield-bad-company-2-pc/1400041-all-servers-down-argentina.html Speaking of hosting your own server for RO2. The webadmin for RO2 is very very nice. I was very impressed with the amount of control it gives. I think it's gonna make the eSports guys very happy.
