I see.... Come at me brah! do you even lift faggot?

Is swearing in context allowed? i.e "How the f*ck am I meant to get BattlEye to work?"

I am sorry officer. My attitude on this forum comes from BB. Next time I'll watch what I say.

Yeah sent them an email and so far i've got nothing yet. Kind of glad when DayZ becomes standalone the anti cheat program will be vac instead of battleye

I totally agree man, It's either fix my battleye now or wait till dayz becomes a standalone game i've spent three days trying to fix this shit and it's just driving me crazy.

australian dollars are different to euros plus i bought arma 2 & OA for $60 for both in june, 2012. i forgot my steam acc and hotmail therefore i had to make a new account and had to get the game again hence why i paid $120 for something that is obviously a piece of shit. gtfo fggt, don't assume shit you tard. 1 euro = 1.28 AUD

can't run arma 2 in compat mode cause i bought it off steam.

1 file missing and will be reacquired :( I'm over this, i reinstalled Arma 2 and OA today.. just tried to reinstall battleye for arma 2 and still it's popping up with the message. doesn't it automatically replace the file?

will do my friend also do you think the Failed to start game (missing excutable) message i get on steam could also be a problem?

Download DayZ Commander, Six was giving me problems aswell. You need OA to play DayZ

Ok so not only is my Battleye stuffing up; Reinstalled Arma 2 & OA. Updated Battleye to Arma 2 & OA on Steam. Manually Reinstalled Battleye to both Arma 2 and OA. I had some trouble with Six launcher so I downloaded DayZ Commander. I've updated my DayZ mod & Arma 2 to the newest update. I've run Arma 2 as Admin and still nothing.. But now steam feels like just doing me over. Every time I try to reinstall battleye via steam for Arma 2 it does this Failed to start game (missing excutable) but doesn't do it when I reinstall the Battleye on OA. I'm pretty angry right now because I bought Arma 2 & OA for the second time in a year for $60 AUD (total cost: $120) and reinstalled Arma 2 and OA yesterday. I'm on the verge of giving up.

OP i'm having a similar problem, I've done everything you've done and more, yet everytime I join a lobby I get "battleye initialization failed" I've bought Arma 2 & OA for $60 AUD and DayZ was the only reason why... I'm very pissed off right now. I couldn't spent that on a better game that wouldn't fuck me over in the long run.

Nah man it didn't work hey. Kind of pissed off with this battleye bullshit.

yes I did man. Just tried it and still nothing

Ok, so I haven't played DayZ since July and had zero problems. I recently have wanted to play DayZ as a couple of my friends have it. Every time I go to join a lobby I get "battleye initialization failed" So far I've; Reinstalled Arma 2 & OA. Updated Battleye to Arma 2 & OA on Steam. Manually Updated Battleye to both Arma 2 and OA. I had some trouble with Six launcher so I downloaded DayZ Commander. I've updated my DayZ mod & Arma 2 to the newest update. I've run Arma 2 as Admin and still nothing.. I'm seriously about to destroy my computer, I payed $50 so I could play DayZ and now Steam is pissing me off with this battleye bullshit. I spent 24 hours downloading Arma 2 & OA. I've looked through other threads and done what they've stated and yet I'm still getting this Battleye pop up. Please help me out..
