Battlefield 3 Bans Gone Wrong?

The Battlelog forums and reddit each feature threads with posts from a surprising number of users claiming they've been banned from playing Battlefield 3 online due to PunkBuster violations in spite of no wrongdoing. Kotaku points the way to an apparent explanation on a site that sells and supports cheats for the game where posts describe a systematic campaign that's currently underway to get innocent users banned to demonstrate the fallibility of the PunkBuster methodology. A recent post to Battlelog from a moderator says: "PB is having an issue at the moment.. DICE and EA are working with Even balance to find cause and fix it asap!" Thanks The Grifter.

"I don't like the "I saw you first I win" style of BF3."

True. Ya gotta wonder where the skill really is in BF 3. I mean where it actually comes into play. I am totally surprised by most kills I get. Many kills are had by back shooting. Many by pure luck. Many by proximity. The list goes on. But I can`t remember 1 kill that I could say "yeah, I got this 1 with legit shooting skillz".

This REALLY makes me miss ARMA 2/Rainbow 6 3.... games that actually have a ballistics system not based on coin toss rock paper scizzors. Ya know the games right? The 1s where when you and a dude meet and he is 3 to 6 feet away and you open up 1st HE dies, not you?????

The games where the dev team doesn`t keep constantly rebalancing weaps on the fly.
