What is Punkbuster?

Post by ETc|#.Jay.# »

PunkBuster has been included with Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory. You will have the option to install PunkBuster on the profile screen or from the join server screen.

What is PunkBuster?
PunkBuster is an automatically self-updating Anti-Cheat software system. The PunkBuster system is designed to hold all participants accountable by scanning the game computers looking for known cheats, game hacks, and exploits similar to the way Anti-Virus software would scan a computer looking for a virus. PunkBuster is optional, however, without it you will not be able to play multiplayer on PunkBuster enabled servers.

PunkBuster does not transmit your private data files to any other computer nor keep any type of centralized database that tracks any information about your personal files. PunkBuster basically just looks for known cheats and game-hacks while you are playing online. A PunkBuster enabled game is an effort to authenticate your installation as "clean" for the purpose of consensual multiplayer online gaming.
