BF3 Players being targeted by hackers [1]

Posted by RosietheRiveter on Jan 25, 2012 - 11:11 AM

I know some of you play BF3. Here is a heads up on hackers attacking servers using Punkbuster and players being framed as cheaters.



EA recommends players avoid playing on servers requiring the software.

"We are actively looking into the specifics of this issue and we are confident that we will have a permanent solution in place shortly. In the meantime, if a player's connectivity has been affected, we recommend that in the interim they join servers that are not running PunkBuster. There is a filter setting for this in the multiplayer server browser," an EA spokesperson said.
