PC - Missing in-game ping, can't see server pings, and kicked by Punkbuster

PC:  I can not see my in-game ping, and I can't see server pings, and I get kicked by Punk Buster.  I am all patched up.  When I try to join servers it gives me this error:  ERROR  Game disconneded: you were kicked by PunkBNuster.  Stated reason:  PunkBuster kicked player...Missing ping"  [Admin Decision].

    Its not that simple as its not a punkbuster issue directly. Its the fact that the method DICE uses to determine the ping doesn't work for everybody. In-game you see a "-" where your ping would be. Its funny that BF3 and BF4 are the only games to do this. Some servers have a plugin or the admin just kicks people with in a certain range and since the ping is indeterminate you get kicked as well.

  • bsisko, true its not as simple as this always...but sometimes it is.

    Uninstalling and then reinstalling Battlelog plugins, using a different browser or changing modem/firewall/anti-virus settings can also help...but, until the original poster replies, reinstalling punkbuster 'could' fix it.
