View Full Version : WTF!?!? Can't connect to SG's PoE server...?

This happened to both SG's & )-Sin-( TX Killing Spree server's - and I was on them just lastnight!!!

In both server's I first get "Data Differ from Server" error on the first attempt and then on both server's I get "Banned from Server" messege!! - I say again, "WTF!?!?"

I have legal copies of all BF RTR, SW & BFV games and I was on both servers lastnight. I did not change anything from lastnight (except the videodefault.con file for refresh rate tweak & I changed it back to 0 - still no go). I say this because in the old BF days game cracks used to issue this error. Is it the PB crap that BFV has now? How does the PB get updated in BFV? Maybe I have an "oudated" PB install now...?^shrugs^

And what the funny thing is - I can join other servers without a problem! Never have I been banned from any game (if servers would issue a "certificate of banishment", I would frame it and hang it on the wall though).

Maybe I will do a fresh install of BFV. But if anyone has a clue as to what's going on let me know please let me know before I do - thanx :thumb:

NEVER MIND....

Figured it out...it was a bad or corrupt file somehow in PoE mod...don't know how it happened...? I was able to get into any BFV 1.1 game but not PoE. I deleted/re-installed all PoE files. BUT, I am still unable to connect to SG's server - can someone "un-ban" me, please?? I can connect to the SiN server now. Thank you.

You're not on any ban list on our server. I don't know why that error says "banned"...but it's not like one of us admins banned you, nor did the server auto ban you.

???...Well, what ever did it [Ban me] has now decided to un-ban me. No longer get the error(s). Or I just had to wait awhile after re-installing the PoE mod...? I can get in now with no problems...weird. I need a cigarette now...

Thanx for checking though YoSC.

It could very well have been a punk buster issue.

I highly doubt it was for being too good. You were probably base camping with a helo.
