mainly because of the lag and bad impact pb had on the gameplay rather than anything else, we didn't abandon punkbuster because it was "outdated", the support for ET was bad however and the fact that we had to suffer pb-lag spikes for months at a time without evenbalance issuing an update, is what made us quit using it all together.
dont know if its related by pb was bypassed, not cracked, dont rly know how it work but every time pb had an update, it detected some cheats, maybe cracked mean it wont be detected for the whole time d:
means they tore it apart.. yeah at one point you could buy a PB blocker from nC that would effectively render PB useless and making you able to run any cheat and do what the fuck you wanted with the game :p
no it wasn't just bypassing (meaning using methods PB didn't detect), it was actively hacking PB to disable all its detection methods -- there's a big difference :p
im not rly into these hack & shit but i doubt cracked is the right therm
dont think we can talk about crack with pb tho
i know what cheats can do, some options were quite nice even if its cheats (talking about how it was bypassed )
right xd
ps: ya bypass pb / pb proof, same sheit
