Improve this question. Steve HHH. Sounds like something on your computer is blocking PunkBuster from communicating with the server. Thanks fbueckert. Disabled it, and spent several minutes in a game before being kicked again with an error about PnkBusterB. I'm closer to a fix.
Are you sure that you put in the BF3 disc before you stared to play? I also have had same problem but when playing with the disc wasn't kicked. Show 1 more comment. Active Oldest Votes. This assumes you have installed Punkbuster, and added Battlefield 3 to its games list.
As Steve himself pointed out, it might also be the Windows Firewall blocking the Service. Improve this answer. DrFish DrFish 14k 11 11 gold badges 70 70 silver badges bronze badges. Thanks Bora. I was able to get into a game for a few minutes before getting kicked with an error about "PnkBustrB. Thanks chak that worked. Originally posted by FireFox :. I finally got it to work, so what I did was launch steam and origin client.
I opened up internet explorer and logged into battlnet and launched the game from battlenet and it worked. Make sure that nothing is open on steam and origin such as chat windows as well.

December it may be your antivirus software is stopping punkbuster working here is all the info you should need to fix punkbuster problems.
This can fix errors like the "ignore query" and "kicked because punkbuster stopped responding" and "key packet loss" and "punkbuster is out of date" errors. It can also correct some issues with random disconnects and drops without any error message.
That doesnt mean that punkbuster is responsible for all the disconnects and drops, but it is one cause. Punkbuster is the anti-cheat used by Battlefield since BF2. Thats what DICE has chosen to use. Punkbuster has had the exact same issues since day one with its update system.
There is no better system out there and until there is, this is what we have to work with. DICE does not make Punkbuster nor can they make a patch for it. There is no point in crying about how bad it is. For those that want to fix your punkbuster issue, keep reading. Punkbuster requires communication from your computer to the server and the server to other databases in the background. In order for this communication to work, two things have to happen: 1. Punkbuster must be in sync with your computer and the server.
That means your client must be the same version or higher than the server and communicating with it as well. The data from punkbuster has to make it out. That means Windows firewall, antivirus, your router firewall, other background programs, and even your internet connection can cause punkbuster to stop working and cause kicks.
This link is the player manual for Punkbuster. This includeds files as well as what is active in your computers memory. I'm telling you this because you could have a program running that Punkbuster might see as a violation of some kind, though it is not, and it will cause a kick.
Types of programs that have done that in the past have been overlays, like Teamspeak overlay and Xfire, and more recently the video enhancers people have been using. That sucks, but that's how it is. You might have to turn it off. I have wrote this post in sections.
For those having constant issues and have tried a number if things, I recommend you go through this entire post step by step, regardless if you already did these steps or not. You may have done something wrong or left something out. Its easy to do that. Youre internet router is usually running a firewall of its own and its not necessary to have Windows Firewall on. I have found that turning off the windows firewall with it still enabled can still affect programs.
I guess thats good Microsoft programming at work, I dont know. Now you may be thinking "But Crunch, Im scared that Im going to get hacked. You will then see them added to the firewall list. It may be different on 32bit. Antivirus causes lag anyway because of all the scanning it does. Because of all the different antivirus programs out there, you are going to have to Google on how to disable your AV while playing. Some AV also has a "gamer" mode.
