Frontlines to Incorporate Punkbuster Support
Let's hope Punkbuster doesn't screw up much this time...
Developer Kaos Studios has revealed that they plan on adding Punkbuster support for their spankin' new online shooter – Frontlines: Fuel of War; the support will be added in one of the upcoming patches. Here’s word from Even Balance’s (the developed of Punkbuster) website:
THQ and Kaos Studios have contracted with Even Balance, Inc. to integrate their PunkBuster anti-cheat software into Frontlines: Fuel of War. This will be added in an upcoming patch and more details will be released soon.
This is terrible news, according to me! I completely abhor Punkbuster with every drop of gamer blood in my body. It’s not because I cheat, it’s because of the crazy amount of muck-ups I’ve faced due to this extremely crappy anti-cheat system, that’s kicked me off servers randomly and made games like Battlefield 2142 complete un-playable at times. I hope that they do a better job this time, else I’m gonna uninstall my copy of Frontlines before you can say 'RandomDisconnectionsFTL!'.
