We WANTED IT, We Got IT!
The good folks at Even Balance released an awesome server tool, Punkbuster. But let's remember, a tool is only as good as the hands that wield it.
There has been a recent flurry of Punkbuster Activity. It makes me extremely happy to see all of these cheaters/hackers being removed from game servers. I know we have been involved in making this game a better place, but ask yourself, Have I Been?
I noticed that there were 809 game servers active in the UBI browser tonight. A check at punksbusted showed we only have around 95 active server admins. Here's my plea to the community,
For the server admin:
Navigate to http://www.punksbusted.com , and sign up to see if they'll allow you to become a trusted member. Besides all the great Punkbuster stuff you'll learn about, I've seen more people helping each other with common server issues from setting up game servers, to having a custom server news program... (Thanks Root 3:16!) And the best thing is, catch a Cheater/Hacker on YOUR server and get them added to the Master Ban List. Help make everyone's gaming experience better by busting those punks.
For the Player:
If you see a person getting removed from a server for a cheat violation, OPEN you're console {"tilde" key} and type SHOT. Or hit the F12 key. The best thing is to hit the Print Screen Key with the console open, then paste it to a photo program. Submit you're screenies of the busted punk, and we'll track down the server information.
I don't know about you, but I don't have that much time to "game". The limited time I get, I wanna have fun! Do you're part to help remove these hackers that ruin YOU'RE fun from the community!
Ubi cares, at least a little. They gave us BulletTooth... http://ubbxforums.ubi.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_frown.gif
OK maybe to get back at us for all of the stuff we say about them... http://ubbxforums.ubi.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif j/k
BUT they did give us Punkbuster!
But PUNKBUSTER only works if WE care. We've BEEN caring, It's BEEN working! Do you're part and let's make everyone's experience fun!
