Got the new punkbuster downloaded, but don't have a clue where to put it. Can't even find the waw.exe program thx to W8 useless search funtion. No idea where the program files are. Punkbuster bounces me from the Modern Weapons server, and all servers that use Punkbuster. Irritating. Can anyone help? Thx.....Harland_Wolff

I play on the custom map server every day with no issues. When I try the modern weapons server, I get a punkbuster message, and get kicked. I used to play there with no problems. I'm Not using any hacks, and have added/subtracted absolutely nothing since buying the game. Anyone have any suggestions? Har

Running 8 on a new Asus comp. Hated it at first, getting used to it now. Old comp had XP. Quite a change, and there is definitely a learning curve. I can run COD 5 with no problems. Unfortuntely Windows 8 is the way of the future unless you go Mac. Guess we just gotta live with it.

Too funny Dean. I've been slashed so much I feel like a venetian blind, but I don't mind, its actually very funny. Its all part of the experience. Har

I can relate to the "spot" thing, I use it frequently in Spearhead, and your right, its not a hack, its just smart gaming. Given the complexity of the COD maps, its not surprising that a newbie would wander into them, and not be able to use them. Time and experience will settle that issue. Ditto on the ping situation, I do know very well what the effects of low/high ping can produce. Guys, I really appreciate all the "inside" info, it really does enhance my experience level. Thanks to you again. Har

Thanks guys, you really have an excellent outfit. Very supportive. I've felt Dean's knife more than once, and your right, he's a ghost! I actually knifed him once, I think he felt sorry for me.....lol. If it weren't for your support and useful information, I might have given up on the game by now. Now I realize the challenges, I'm in it for the long haul. Thanks guys....can't say it enough. Har

Many thanks for the reply, I now have a much greater understanding of the game and how it works. I just have a lot to learn, and I am learning every time I play. I want to say again that I am totally happy with the admins and how they keep things in check, they do a wonderful job, hands down. Its one of the reasons I game exlusively on the XI servers. Top flight all the way. Again my thanks to the XI guys, simply great. Har

Been playing on the servers for about two weeks, had lots of experience in other fps WW II games, been at it for over a decade, had my own clan etc etc. Been working my way up through the ranks, and the additions are helpful, no doubt. I have a new fast comp, plenty of ram, and a 25" HP HD monitor. I feel like an absolute idiot at times, going 1-20 etc. Seems almost impossible, but maybe I'm wrong. Others with my same rank and weapons are cleaing up regularly. Gets a bit frustrating. I'm new to COD, and am wondering how many hack mods are out there being used. I've heard that punkbuster is a joke when it comes to stopping hackers. I mean really, when I'm hidden well, someone always pops me off at a distance without me ever seeing them. Seems like a few know where I am even when I'm behind walls, and come out blasting. My reaction time is just fine, never had this issue before playing COD. I am Not, repeat Not blaming the guys on the server, or the clan in Any Way. Want to make that very clear. Love it here really. So....am I just that inexperienced, or are the hackers running the show? Many thanks from a frustrated Har.
