The fix is for server logging (log files), not log in/log out system! So stop this racist sh*t! >:(

I think there's a bug causing something like that or you joined a private server which doesn't use the global Hive to save your progress. These servers are usually named "custom hive, private hive, non hive". Just try again with definitely official server.

I don't think it's him and why couldn't a black person be a racist? That's a bit racist dont you think? And the fixed bug means what it says; there was excessive amount of unimportant data written to server logs which probably caused a small performance hit on the server end. It's nothing players should worry about.

If i'm 36 years old, which answer would be right?

Do not buy keys from key sellers! Read this official announcement. If you manage to get a new key from them, it'll probably be disabled in a few days again.

The 95389 beta is still beta not the official patch, so just delete the beta folder in your install directory and apply the 95389 beta again. But the error message is a bit strange; latest beta should be compatible with the previous one. Unless they deny any other version on the server.

Lose the kids or lose the game. So you just got shot at and suddenly your life calls and you have to log out? What an coincidence. Also, I shouldn't be punished if I leave the character in game while I go for a smoke. But you people still shoot me when I'm AFK. That's just wrong. Ie. games have rules, so play by them and you won't get punished. Pretty simple. ;)

There's something wrong with your throttle or expectations. I think helicopters climb with relatively realistic speed. Try take-offs with key Q (or whatever keyboard bind) and compare?

Why the hell would you click left mouse in any situation other than shooting? You need it only on map, menus and inventory, and there you can't really shoot accidentally or you're incredibly clumsy and shouldn't even play the game without adult supervision and a helmet. USE THE MIDDLE MOUSE BUTTON FOR ACTIONS. (since you're already selecting the action with the mouse wheel.)

I'm almost sure the tides are modeled in the game. Can you use the editor to find out? Change date and watch the water level?

According to the developer of Dayz Commander, problem is in the gamespy so everyone is effected. There's nothing we can do about it now. Just wait for an update for commander or gamespy. Have you tried http://arma2.swec.se/server/list for finding servers.

"Well look at the beans on that hacker!", they'll say.

So every legit player can't play on your server anymore and hackers just change their GUID and come back? What did you accomplish? Other than a server populated only by you and your friends?

The mod already breaks single player and everything else on purpose since last patch. So removing single player totally is quite reasonable. No more endless troubleshooting questions why "I spawn as a bird in single player mission?".

I'm sure he actually meant duel weapons and duels. Would make the PvP much more interesting. You meet a pesky bandit at a grocery store and get in a verbal brawl with him over the last can of beans. You'd had enough and throw down the gauntlet and call it a duel. You can't just put a piece of makarov in his ass because of the gentlemans code, so you agree to meet him at the Devil's castle courtyard at dawn. Back to back, under a third-party supervision, with single shot enfield and a crowbar, you take ten steps and turn to shoot. If you DC, you'll reincarnate as a goat.

It would take a good two minutes this way to find out the distance. You think the target would just stand there waiting? (Find the locations of both of you, switch to windows, open the programs...) At least use the in-game map, it has 100m gridlines . It's faster and easier to measure. Or place yourself in the editor with a few weapon crates and AI soldiers in the airfield lined up for example 100 meters apart. Try out different weapons and memorize how tall a person is through the scope. Use mildots and same zoom level throughout. Hold spacebar to see how far each man is. Practise. And if you're into camping as a sniper, while you're setting up your fire position, take your time to measure the distance to a couple of landmarks in your sector. For example, that big tree on the right is 400m away, that rock 700, house 1k. Test fire to be sure. Wait for your prey.

There's no magic cure for low ping. Stop all other programs that are using the network. Stop downloading porn! :) The above registry hack doesn't even work since ping isn't using TCP. It may improve overall performance in game but not the ping. And you shouldn't even do those kind of changes unless you know what you're doing. It might even make your situation worse. But do try that and tell us how it worked out. I'm known for being totally wrong from time to time.

Try different server and disable any cheats you may have on. Do you have legal version of the game? Purchased from steam or bistudio or on physical disk?

Open the Expansions in the game main menu. You should see Dayz in the list. Check it and click ok. If you're mainly playing Dayz, you should try Dayz Commander

I think many people suffer from this randomly. First time it probably was a shock but then your character data got screwed up in the database and now it thinks you're supposed to be in shock every time. Or you're always disconnecting in the middle of a fight? I believe only cure is to respawn and get a fresh start.

Also you shouldn't be allowed to go outside without a helmet. You might mistake an oncoming train for a kitten and try to headbutt it and hurt your head. C'mon guys, there's really something wrong with you if you hit respawn accidentally more than once. Why would you even use options in the middle of the action in a hurry? General rule of life and Arma: 1. Think. 2. Press a button. 3. Think. 4. Press next button. 5. Stay alive.

Yeah, I know, gaming laptops are damn expensive and Arma2 is VERY demanding although it's 3 years old game by now. For $1000 you could get a much better gaming desktop.

Cpu should be more than enough and might compensate for the lower gpu. Arma2 is fortunately very flexible GPU-wise. Like I said, you'll most likely will run the game ok but not with high settings, maybe not even with medium.

650M is a bit bad for Arma2. Probably with lowest settings you'll be able to play but it won't be pretty. Which CPU you have? It makes all the difference in arma. Passmark comparison
