Electronic Arts will lift bans that have wrongly received some owners of PCs third version of the Battlefield A few days ago contributed to the hackers after the attack on the Punkbuster program.

U.S. publisher announced on the pages Battlelog services that have been taken adequate steps to unlock unlucky accounts. Increased system security is also to this type of incident never happened did not occur. Wrongly banned so people can count on is that their profiles will soon be restored to full fitness.



Representatives of the group agreed that the main cause unexpected bans are no gaps in the third Battlefield Culprits are assuming more company implements support for servers with Punkbuster. Paradoxically, the software was to make life difficult for fraudsters in the production of EA DICE studio, and as a result of the attack were exposed to honest users.

It should also commend the author for staying true to the original style games. Too many projects of this type replaces the textures for new, not having much in common with the originals, which often gives a very uninteresting results. JeanLuc761 fortunately did not go this route and instead simply increased the detail of the form, so that they present a much prettier.
