BF3 PB

Any thoughts on this error that is preventing me from playing BF3 :(

Game disconnected: you were kicked by PunkBuster. Stated reason: PunkBuster kicked player 'TosspoTo' (for 2 minutes) ... Violation (IGNORING QUERIES) #9006

stop ignoring queries!
Download PBSCV from PunkBuster Online Countermeasures and run it. This violation means there is something wrong with one of the Punkbuster services and PBSCV will hopefully fix it.
Tests completed without error!

use it to uninstall everything pb related. use pbsetup to reinstall it.
enter firewall into ur win7 search bar which will open the advanced firewall options. add exceptions
Parent
sounded like he was playing ET
Parent

Parent

Parent
Try to update PB manually using PBsetup

I did that to fix some problems I had, cant remember which :P
I was getting this error all today just after the ingame manager updated, spoke to EA help, unistalled PB reinstalled etc my error kick changed to just 'disconnected from game' Some help ffs!

didnt play for a few hours and now it works and lets me on for longer than 5mins.
Parent
Updated still kicked
Parent
No idea then :( Hope you get it fixed
Parent
Another thing I remember: try to start BF3 (logging into battlenet) from battlefield 3.exe. I have to do that in order to play, no idea why
Parent
happens after the latest patch, delete the path and update your game again. it fixes the issue, worked for me.
Parent
As in uninstall?
Parent
nope just delete the latest patch, and update your game again. if you dont know how to, find out the latest patch's file name and simply remove it from your game files.
Parent
Every server or just one in particular? I had the same problem with one server just after the last patch.
yes, play ET
Is pb allowed through your firewall?
Instead of playing this game you could have been chatting we me on IRC.
Sorry not on IRC on this PC, headed to bed now - but if you want to chat ill be on iRC tomorrow during the day time or let me know a time to be on.

QuoteMost common causes of this particular kick are either;
A firewall issue.
or
Not logged in as admin of your own PC.

BF3 pub play is actually a lot of fun D: (lots of game modes to avoid vehicles if you don't like that side of things).
BF3 matches are a lot of fun as well, playing 4-v-4 squad rush in ESL, has a very ET feel to it with one team defending an objective and the other attacking, co-ordinating rushes, medics keeping everyone alive etc. Lame stuff like IRNV / tact lights / M320 are banned, and of course there's no vehicles ;)
Parent
Nice yeah heard the early comp settings still had m320 etc.
Parent
check network settings ;d
I had the same shit and I just needed to update PB :)
dont ignore queries!
