Here are the dreaded screens that i have been getting lately

First one is "unable to connect" why ? so i can only play in unranked servers now

Image

Second one, I managed to connect and then this ! "You have been disconnected"

Image

Lastly, when i manage to get on a server... dam punkbuster is playing havoc !

Image

They really need to release a patch asap otherwise this game is going to be placed in the shredder... When i do manage to get on-line the gameplay is okay, just a real shame the whole "connecting and staying in a server is pants"

Yea, those disconnect are very annoying... The same situation like when FC1 came out...

Make sure you update PB using the latest version of PBSETUP. The PB installed 'out of the box' is old and will cause you to get kicked occasionally.

Other FC2 Related PB info can be found here: http://evenbalance.com/index.php?page=pbsetup.php

The game needs a patch that restructures MP - as it stands now we have a decent SP game, a great map editor (my 'bango river' map is taking shape) and a really shite MP that is taking the shine off the game as a whole...plus the odd bug (keybinds, fov, etc).
The best defence against software piracy is producing a game worth buying.

Is this the error message that your anti virus pops up saying the file has a Trojan. If so it's part of the registration process for FC2 and you need to allow it.
