Battlefield 3 PB Issues

[kiwijunglist]

Hi

I am having problems with this one of your servers and this is confirmed by another user.

GetSome:Vodafone | 24/7 Noshahr | 200% Tick | #9

This PB Server Requires (A1386 C2.325) - Error loading pbcl

Can you please update your servers to the latest version of punk buster?
Client: v2.331 | A1386
Server: v1.867 | A1386 | C2.331

Thanks
Kiwi

Still getting the same error.

"This PB Server Requires (A1386 C2.325) - Error loading pbcl"

Current PB version is as kiwijunglist said,
Client: v2.331 | A1386
Server: v1.867 | A1386 | C2.331

Oddly though, when I tried pbsetup my BF was still using v2.2xx ..? Despite having just played on other servers with no problems

How I personally fixed this issue

Your own risk...rarara...

I don't even know if I need to type that or not.

Download this https://mega.co.nz/#!yQpHVBDb!Fi9BdVHV7gP7k1WXLPSEN14L_H9Lp-VjvFLDyzWHh6c
Extract it

Run pbvsc.exe , choose to remove/uninstall punkbuster
Run pbsetup.exe, When it's all loaded up, click add game - > Battlefield 3 - > Show it to bf3's directory, if it hasn't figured it out already - > Right click BF3 (in pbsetup.exe) and click "check for updates".

Just tried it again, worked fine.

That's a good general fix for when your pb won't auto-update. Doesn't help when the server is kicking you for having an update that's too new.

Oh well, it fixed my game when I was having the same problem.

No worries

Hi all... Trying to play on your servers, reinstalled BF3 yesterday with two friends. All of us get kicked after a few minutes playing on all 3 of your servers(and other servers)


We all installed yesterday, so maybe we have a later version of punk buster, i'm not sure.. Looking through google this is an issue for a lot of people, have tried every fix anyone has suggested, even a complete reinstall of origin,bf3 and pb.. EA forums are useless, their online help is also useless and tell me to speak to EvenBalance

I've tried to DL pbsvc and point it to my game and update no luck, followed instructions on https://help.ea.com/nz/article/punkbuster-technical-issues still no luck.. is this an issues for anyone else?

Have you tried manually updating punk buster?

[ekulnz]

Sure have, looks to be up to date(screenshot below)

Also the error message is Game disconnected: you were kicked by PunkBuster. Stated reason: PunkBuster kicked player (for 0 minutes) ... This PB Server Requires (A1386 C2.325) - Error loading pbcl

Cheers

Try these threads for solutions, Not a server side issue I suspect. It happened to me wneh I built my new rig earlier this year, cant remember the exact fix but google did provide the solution.

It may even be posted in one of the many related threads.
