bishop245 Posted December 24, 2011 Posted December 24, 2011 I can't seem to play BF3 because of the error below. Game disconnected: you were kicked by PunkBuster. Stated reason: PunkBuster kicked player 'bishop245' (for 0 minutes) ... RESTRICTION: Service Communication Failure: PnkBstrA.exe I had to reinstall windows tonight, and I reinstall origin, BF3, Dead Space2. Haven't tried any other PB enabled games yet, because I want to play BF3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bishop245 Posted December 24, 2011 Posted December 24, 2011 I will try that, but it did update itself so that's why I haven't yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bishop245 Posted December 24, 2011 Posted December 24, 2011 I am also redownloading BF3 as it seemed like it was messed up too. I couldn't even play the single player without it crashing, so I guess it will be tomorrow before I get to play Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bosco Posted December 24, 2011 Posted December 24, 2011 Punkbuster tends to update without telling anyone. I just leave the updated on my desktop and as soon as I get an error like that I run the update. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
