All these dipshits that like to push the boundaries of the game's features. There needs to be a zero tolerance policy. No tweaking, no AHK, no second accounts, nothing. You open the doors to a little visual tweak and people will always push the envelope to try and get an advantage.

It's a fucking free game, go out in the real world and make a difference you narrow-minded twats.

I would check the usual suspects first.
Which means every program that is running in background while playing.

(Antivirus, etcetera...)

Those "Lag Spikes" are caused by hard drive access many times.


You may try "pb_system 0" as well.

type this on console: PB_Sleep 500

have you also problems with other sw on your computer?

i am asking because everything from disk will first be loaded into RAM. so maybe your RAM is not proper anymore.
maybe you can run a RAM-Check ones.

otherwise i have no idea what that could be. you have realy deleted ALL of your aa2 instalations? some folders are hidden, maybe you should have a look at them. and are you running aa3 on the same pc?

can be possible cause, that in win7 at least for me, when army is killed, either by closing it or similar stuff, some service might stay hanging around and punkbuster tries to "bind" into it, thus software itself, is not giving info to PB and cause kick on first server punkbuster scan.

solution = use "fix punkbuster" every time you disconnect/close Army, but just "test service" no reinstall or anything is needed. testing restart punkbuster services and bind em to proper software => youre able to play

People mentioned disk failure but nobody suggested to check your drive's SMART info. Download HDTune and go to the Health tab and post a screenshot of that here.

Pipeline players always know where everybody is

If theres enough interest in an classic server I would like to switch my server back to normal, but for now theres to many players who like shotgun only..
