I just bought BF3 from the origin.
Successfully downloaded it, and correctly installed it.
I can launch the game from the battlelog also and manage to play it.

But SUDDENLY, I was kicked by Punkbuster after 30 secs of playing BF3.
That is my problem. It really making me sad, and annoyed me.
I spent my money just to get kicked by the Punkbuster.

Can you guys help me to find the solution?
Thanks in advance. smile.gif

p/s: Refer my attachment for clearer info.

Edit: Forgot to mention. The Punkbuster telling me the reason of kicking me is 'Losing Key Packets 9003'
Why oh why? Sigh. sad.gif

Uninstall your current PB and reinstall. Done.

have you updated BF3? go origin and try to fix / repair game.

I just did what you said. But still, failed.

I don't think so the problem is from origin nor bf3.
I guess its the punkbuster problem. It such a bad anti-cheat software.
Kicking out players for no reason. And I even have the lowest ping during gaming.
But then, the punkbuster kicked me because of 'losing key packets 9003'
Sighh.

VAC is wayyyy better than PB.

I just did your solution, and still not working. sad.gif

Hm, can you test your punkbuster service and post the log here?
I want to compare with mine, and wanna make sure does the punkbuster is the problem.

Arghh, hate this. I can enjoy the panorama of the bf3 map for 30 secs only.
And then the PB kicked me. T.T

PB used to be way better, til crybabies who got caught for hacking complained alot...and PB being probably related to Dice...went and made PB not as effective as before...just like how Dice waters down rifles etc cos of crybabies.

anyway, the 9003 error i had it one time.
cant remember what i did, but i think it was uninstalling / updating pb...repair game via origin etc...and reboot modem tongue.gif

I cleaned format my OS hdd, and the problem gone.
It was my OS hdd fault actually.
Maybe the registry was messed up.
Anyway, sorry Punkbuster for saying bad things about you. Haha. biggrin.gif
