Oh punkbuster you peace of sht.I love how you never seem to work just right. Always something that causes you to flag some bs error. Just when i think i fix you, you rear your ugly head to come back and bug me again. Punkbuster, you are undoubtedly the worst anti-cheat software ever chosen to back a game. I spend more time playing with you than i do with bf2. fu pb and fk the people who created you and endorsed you.
now that my rant is over...
Ok pr community i know im not the only one facing the heartbeats stopped error from pb. Its basically a gamble if pb is going to work right or not. Ive been through many forums from nilla bf2 forums to fh2 forums and everyone has responded the same ol sht. Well obviously its not working.
Things ive tried to fix heartbeats stopped error.
pb_sleep 500
removed pb folder and reinstall/restart/updated
removed pb services and reinstall/restart/updated
checked pnkbstrB is running before joining server
checked make pnkbstrB restart if service failed in services
open pb ports in my router
open pb ports in firewall
disable firewall
changed router
hard start modem
reinstall windows vista
reinstall bf2
restart pc after error
what else is there to do?! DELETE MY PB FOLDER/ SERVICE AND TRY REINSTALL AGAIN...? lolz
