This feature is unique to PBBans but will probably go the way of every other feature we have pioneered by being copied in its entirety by other sites with no credit given, seems to be the way of the world these days :(

That's a very true statement. But we now know where it came from, and that's just one of the many reasons we support you!

Nice feature!

I just hope this time EA support won't help cheaters to transfer their soldiers to new accounts... Posted Image

Good spotting that people have the same GUID across games. I suppose this is a result of the fight that was put up at the beginning of BC2 to base the GUID on the account and not the soldier, which is where the real work to get this done happened.

Bravo.

With more EA games using one standard PB GUID that is shared among multiple games, we have added a new Enforce MBi Bans (EA GUID) option which checks connecting players GUIDs against the MBi across multiple EA games that share the same PB GUID. This currently includes Bad Company 2, Medal of Honor and Battlefield 3.

This means that if you get banned in one of the games listed above you are kicked in other games that use the same GUID.

Simply, Thank you ;)

We have a ban on our server but with no name only the EA GUID. How can I find out the name associated with that GUID or GUID's?

Will there be an option to search for banned EA GUID's ?
Also is there a way to find a players EA GUID from a PB GUID ?

Games that share the same PB GUID are:

- Battlefield 3 and Medal of Honor Warfighter.


Guess we've seen now this is not correct anymore.

Too bad EA / DICE / EB did not listen. It would have been helpful.

Actually they did. The EA_GUID (The one rcon tools use) are the same. It's an issue with PB.

Sharing PB_GUID makes no sense. Sharing EA_GUID does.

Well to me at least.

Sharing PB GUIDs = sharing bans across games. It was done for BC2 and MoH2010 but was also the same for BF3 during the beta. However it changed with the retail release and by the time they wound be able to change it there was a lot of bans so they left it as it was.

Maybe in the short term, but surely not in the long term. EA_GUIDs aren't going anywhere. It makes sense to support them now in their infancy.

The way I see it in my head (though I maybe incorrect):-

PB_GUID = tied to a game
EA_GUID = tied to an Origin account

And as far as I know games don't share PB_GUIDs but they do share EA_GUIDs. Extra layer of anti-cheat, no?

PB can't see EA_GUID's and PB generates a PB GUID based on either the EA_GUID itself or the same id that us used to generate the EA_GUID.

All references to EA_GUID on PBBans refers to the PB GUID in some EA games and not the EA_GUID id that is found in rcon for Frostbite based games. I may rename that soon to avoid confusion.

BC2 and MoH2010 share the same PB GUID.

BC2 and MoH2010 share the same PB GUID.
Taken from the MoH:W documentation:-

Quote

Accounts, soldier names, and GUIDs

Every MoHW PC player has exactly one EA account. The player has exactly one soldier name.

The PunkBuster GUID is tied to the EA account. So is the “EA GUID”.

The PB GUID is used with all PB-services, while the EA GUID is used with any non-PB related functions in the game server.

PunkBuster GUIDs are 32-digit hexstrings.

EA GUIDs are the prefix “EA_” followed by a 32-digit hexstring

Guess we have a definite answer.

Well put singh,I think we all understand what they are and their function.
It does not change the fact however that PB cant see EA GUID's in a context that is useful.

Seems 1.866 for MoHW fixed the PB GUID and it now matches the BF3 PB GUID
