I adminned servers for many years, from TFC to CS to UT to JK2 to BF2, and I have always found the best anti-cheat to be visible admin presence and an active community to report cheaters. This is why VAC is a fantastic anti-cheat system, as the delayed bans create a hesitancy there, especially with the added bonus of losing your Steam account.

LAME! Not necessarily a better chance, but in my experience: - PB causes significant issues for many people (myself included, albeit not in BF3) - Admins are a significant deterrent - Cheaters often look upon PB servers as a challenge - Instant-ban anti cheats like PB are ineffective against cheaters with a brain, as the guys developing the cheats will always be ahead of the anti-cheating software (ala viruses vs anti-virus software). When I see these " players " join the server I'm on, I quickly leave! It's a shame that some choose to use these cheats and ruin the experience for everyone else on a regular basis. Will wait a while and then try that one beacause I do want to use this program for all the voltage monitoring. It was the instalation disk version of Ai Suite 3 I installed and I see there is a newer one out.

It's more trouble than the occasional cheater.Īnd why is it that PB can catch some but not others? I check the PB BF3 ban list every so often and see a ton of aimbot bans, but at the same time, I know there are some aimbots that come and go freely on PB enabled server I go to and NEVER get caught. Even though I own the latest games its only realy BF3 I play so couldnt tell with others. said: said: I always play on non-pb secured servers. It just seems like alot of them wouldn't want to risk being banned if they know they are cheating.Īnd why is it that PB can catch some but not others?

I know PB isn't the greatest as I have been on PB enabled servers and have seen known hackers/cheaters join and play regularly, but I have always though of PB as more of a hacker deterrent. So you think that playing on a non-PB enabled server with an admin or not stands a better chance of being hacker/cheater free? I'll take a no-PB server with admin presence (or even without) any day. LOL.that's funny.where do you think all the " cheaters " go once they have been banned from the PB enabled servers? *BINGO*The funny thing is that you seem to think PB is at all effective at catching people that cheat.

Thanks dude, this helped a lot the other day, when my Punk Buster was acting up in the game and kicked me out right in the middle of the match. This is a very nice tool it works with any game that runs punkbuster. This triggers our anti-spambot measures, which are designed to stop automated systems from flooding the site with traffic. Turns out Punkbuster didn't even install. Some unofficial phone apps appear to be using GameFAQs as a back-end, but they do not behave like a real web browser does.Using GameFAQs regularly with these browsers can cause temporary and even permanent IP blocks due to these additional requests. If you are using Maxthon or Brave as a browser, or have installed the Ghostery add-on, you should know that these programs send extra traffic to our servers for every page on the site that you browse.The most common causes of this issue are:
