I installed battlefield 2, downloaded latest battlefield 2 patch and installed, downloaded project reality and installed, downloaded project reality maps and installed. Downloaded punkbuster and updated battlefield 2. Started the game to play but crashed to desktop when conencting to server, ok, set my graphics to medium, ok, conencting to server now works, getting kicked because punkbuster packet flow, download pbsvc and install, uninstall punkbuster and install again and update again and install all nessesary extra pb files and restart computer. Start game, conencting, getting kicked by Handshake, !"#%)%&#, unisntall pb, installing pb, run pc extra helping files, updating everything. Reboot. Start game, connecting, kicked due Query something. Joining pr forums, and start whining liek a *****.

What resolution are you running at? 800x600? If so, there's a little bug with that right now. The fix is here: https://www.realitymod.com/forum/f26-pr ... -load.html

Also, fuzzhead has compiled a list of PB fixes, the handshaking error a problem listed there, with a fix: https://www.realitymod.com/forum/f27-pr ... -here.html

Mate, i know how you feel. I've had that many problems with Punkbuster its untrue. Finally i though i got it 2 work then another problem. Really pisses me off. Unfortunately its the same for everyone. Its a problem with punkbuster not PR. The dev's work bloody hard on this release and Punkbuster ruins it all. It the worst software to use but its the only one so we just have 2 put up with it. Sucks, i know but thats the way it is. Wud be allot easier if the pb developers wud get off thier lazy arses and fix the problem

I've renamed the thread title for you... I'm in a good mood . Stay calm from now on and listen to the tips the community gives you. I'm sure there's a fix for you. Just don't get too uptight anymore, k?

Thnx for the replies. I was expecting some threadtitles changes and im sorry for that . I usually dont get like this but trust me ive been sitting here now for 3hours and tried to get this to work.

for handshake failure

PunkBuster handshake failure,

If unable to join a certain server, click on any other server and start to load up, cancel the load and retry original server

has worked for me everytime, and the people ive told via ts and stuff seem to agree that it works
