Unable to join any BF4 Server due to PunkBuster (Not banned)

[JordieDevs]

Heyo,

I've been unable to join any BF4 servers because I'm being constantly kicked by PunkBuster. 

I've tried all of the following:

• Running BF4 as admin
• Re-installing / Checking the PunkBuster installation
• Reinstalling BF4
• Trying different servers
• Completely removing PunkBuster, and downloading the files from the PunkBuster site.

I realised you posted your PB GUID in the log you posted so i checked it with the GUID checker on the homepage of the pbbans website and it says the GUID is globally banned (cached data).

If that's the case then the only course of action is to open an evenbalance troubleticket.

Also tried restarting my PC, and restarting / stopping and starting the PB services.

Try this tutorial..

Its had a high success rate as far as I can gather for those who I have shared this with.

Let me know how you get on.

Good luck

Still didn't work :/

Connect to a pb enabled server using battlelog. Battlelog should bring up the full kick message at the bottom of the screen. When it does copy and paste it here.

Hey @JordieDevs

Have you reached out to Even Balance yet to see if it might be due to an action on your account?

Here is how to contact them: https://help.ea.com/en/help/battlefield/punkbuster-technical-issues/

[JordieDevs]

I have not attempted to contact them, as I thought it may be an issue on my end, but I'll go ahead and shoot them an email.
