BF4 Punkbuster kicks me from every server

It just started today to where I get this message every server i try to join... Game disconnected: you were kicked by PunkBuster. Stated reason: PunkBuster kicked player 'KillBox1B' (for 0 minutes) ... RESTRICTION: Service Communication Failure: PnkBstrA.exe. I have been able to play every day with no issues up until today. Any ideas?

    That didn't work...

  • This probably seems a bit late to say, but thanks for the help. I have tried this and according to the tests, some things have gone wrong with punkbuster. Hopefully this works!

  • Hi @Heus_nine96

    This is a common problem in Battlefield 4, it has nothing to do with your account it's just a little corruption in the PunkBuster files.

    In order to fix the issue go to your Origin Library, right click on BF4 icon and click 'Repair Game'

    The repair should fix all the corrupted files

    However If this doesn't work then I highly recommend going on official PunkBuster website to sort things out because PunkBuster is a third-party program

    PunkBuster: www.evenbalance.com

    Hopefully this helps buddy 🙂

  • I know this is old as * but I have 4 of both could that be the problem?
