:mad: I've been kicked over 10 times in a row! :mad:

Okay so I start up BF2 and I connect to the server. Everything seems fine till I select my kit.. All of a sudden it goes back to the main menu and get an error message saying Punkbuster handshaking failed and heartbeat stopped.. Anyway so I start up the server again! and it comes with the same error message. I just can't seem to play on the servers anymore. Anyone got a solution for this problem? :confused:

Thanks.
 
What kind of account are you using?

IS/SAIX

if IS, is it a local only account?
 
2 options i think.... update Punkbuster, and restart computer....

i get the same thing sometimes... its cause PB has not updated while the game has, and you have to restart the game / computer for it to "register" if u know what i mean...
 
Thanks guys, yea Ajax I know what you mean. Storm I'm using SAIX I think.. Ajax how do I update PB?
 
I also want to know how to update pb.Cos yesterday me and my friend played bf2142 and i also been kicked for no reason:/3 to 4 times.
 
i just click on the PB.exe file and update it there... it is a manual way of doing it, but atleast i know its done...
 
try running the program as "administrator" That was happening to me when I was playing F.E.A.R. online. Just that simple thing fixed it. Give it a try.
 
Joosh you were complainging about warwarden arty in uncap earlier tonight. I see you sorted your problem out :p

I sorted him out too :D

I got the same error after patching BF2. You need to update your Punkbuster. Find and download the Punkbuster Updater and run that, then tell it to update BF2. Works like a charm. I found it on the official Punkbuster website. I think you can also find it on the SAIX games services ftp.

Have fun trying that. I signed up about a week ago, maybe more, and I'm still waiting for one of the admins to wake up and give me posting rights. I sent them an email and got an auto-reply saying it usually takes about two weeks before anyone checks the emails.

I also checked the memberlist, and the last person to join and actually be able to post joined somewhere around early August.

The lights are on, but nobody's home....

Hey Guys,

I had the same problem since installing BF2 SF and did a manual update of PB and everything is working 100% again and i'm not getting kicked anymore...
 
LOL - Razer0 you still missed! :D See you on the servers, looking forward to owning you :D :D .. Yea I still haven't updated PB yet. :p See you on the servers all those BF2 Players :)
 
Sometimes you need to restart the punkbuster service. Start->run, type 'services.msc' hit enter. The services window will open. Find the PunkbusterA service, and restart it.
 
LOL - stoke I'll just c4 you when i see you coming! Can't wait to see you flying in the air lol.. :D Thanks thisgeek I'll try that.
