Something did this to me around 3-5 Mountain time. Worked fine before then, came back from bank and PB hates me..
Can you try uninstalling and reinstalling Punkbuster - we've reports that this resolves the issue?
Full details of what to do can be found in this Help Centre article: https://help.ea.com/article/punkbuster-technical-issues
I can't even find the install directory for punk buster any more, so there is no way to install it. I've redownloaded and resinstalled punkbuster several times, updated, followed all those steps and still the same disconnect error.
Hey !
Go to : C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Battlefield 4\__Installer\punkbuster\redist
> Launch pbsvc.exe and Install/Re-install Punkbuster service
If you don't have the pbsvc.exe, go to http://www.evenbalance.com/downloads/pbsvc/pbsvc.exe [evenbalance.com] and download it.
Tried uninstalling/re-installing PB. Ensured PB and BF4 are up to date and cleared by firewall. Still getting the same error after 30 seconds or so of play,
"ERROR Game disconnected: you were kicked by PunkBuster. Stated reason: PunkBuster kicked player 'Manlivs' (for 0 minutes) ... RESTRICTION: Service Communication Failure: PnkBstrA.exe"
Me too. I cannot play for 2 weeks after update!!!
I update it again today. Reinstall Puck Buster! Got the some error. WHY??? Who is responsible for this ???? Why I paid a game that I cannot play!!
