Well, apparently you can completely uninstall Avast, reboot, and it should work again. Otherwise, wait until they fix it on their end..

Well, I'm running Avast as well, but there's no way I will uninstall my virus protection, to be able to run a game. Bohemia will need to find a fix for this, not the other way around, that's just ridiculous Edit: https://feedback.dayz.com/view.php?id=28694

I have the exact same problem. I have not changed anything to my system, and since yesterday I can't start DayZ SA. I can see BattlEye start, and in the CMD box it says "Game Launching", nothing happens. There are 3 processes starting when I start DayZ. - dayz.exe *32 - dayz_BE.exe *32 - beservice.exe I can stop the BattlEye services, but not dayz.exe ( even though as soon as you stop dayz_be.exe, Steam doesn't show Dayz running any more. Even after removing the game files from Steam, dayz.exe still remains running in services. With dayz.exe *32 running in the background, I cannot restart my computer. I have to hard reset it with the reset or power button. I usually play Experimental. It worked great with update #2 0.59. Last night was the first time I tried playing in a week, and can see that update #3 0.59 changed something to my whole system ( update 18 nov 2015 ), but reinstalling DayZ doesn't make a difference ( to try and play live, instead of exp.). I also have 2 Steam accounts, and have 2 DayZ SA licenses, and can't play on either now.

Seems like all exp. servers, except for 2 servers in the US, are offline?

I'm not a bandit, nor am I a hero.. I am a survivor. The only times you'll see me in populated areas, I will be on the lookout for a new kitchen knife, a new axe, or something else that got broken along the way. I spend my days in the woods, always near cities with mosin+lrs+comp., picking off zombies from 600+ meters. One shot, one kill, move to new location. I kill animals and cook them. When my bag is full of food, I will go to known "bambi" areas, and leave an improvised bag on the road with food, drinks, and usually a pistol with a few rounds in them, for a bambi to pick up. You won't see me, you won't hear me - and if by luck you heard me shooting a zombie and did find out where I was, you'll have a tough time finding me there, because I will be gone. I'm not friendly - I'm not social - I'm alive because I choose to be. alive for 3,5 - 4 months now Oh, and if I see you with a mosin on top of triple yellow, looking down - I will shoot you, just because we all know why you are there

Been playing 0.49 for a few hours now with a friend, and we have the same issues. - servers with persistance "on" have weird loot tables. Hundreds of chemlights and flares, close to no useable melee weapons and even less rifles/attachments - servers with persistance "off" have about the same loot tables as 0.47, but with new items included. Also, weapons / attachments and ammo seems to be more spread out over buildings, except for the military loot, which ( with the occasional exception ) is found in military areas. - servers with persistance "off", seem to have admins who like their "restart server" button... :S Some of the melee weapons seem to work better on zombie-slaying than others. What works best for me: + firefighter axe ( 1 hit to kill ) + splitting axe ( 1 hit on head, 2 hits on body to kill ) + Farming hoe ( 2 hits on head, multiple on body to kill ) + Pickaxe ( 2 hits on head, multiple on body to kill ) - shovel ( useless ) - baton ( useless ) - bat ( useless ) - wrench ( useless ) I choose to use my fists on zombies if I dont have any of the useful ( top 4 ) melee weapons, seems to be quicker to punch them out in first person view hitting them in the head until they go down - and then run for safety. As for weather effects, it's been said by someone before, but this is what I / we found Rain: Gurka coat, Rain coat Cold in towns: Woolen coat Cold in mountains: Downen jacket ( and if they're damaged/badly damaged, repair them to worn..! ) Whenever you get to close to lakes/rivers, and you get instantly soaked - wring out your pants, you will go from soaked to wet to damp. Find a place indoors, light a fire and get warm. Not sure if this has been said before, but find a pristine kitchen knife, so you get the most meat out of a shot animal when you quarter them. My 2 cents: I'm not having any issues with this patch, when I play on servers with persistance "off". Except for the loothappy admins who restart their servers while they're looting and can't find their AK's. It's a different thing on servers with persistance "on" though, where it's almost impossible ( my experience, might be different for others ) to find a splitting axe, which is really needed to be able to survive the cold and stay out of towns for survival in the woods. But with the massive amounts of chemlights, at least you can have a disco party at green mountain :D ( edit: grammar )

On stable?

There is no dev response, that's the issue. However.... You ( and others like you ) just post something, as if stating a "fact", where you have no proof. Don't just assume anything, until it has been confirmed

Are all 108 posts you made so far of the same high quality? If you post something stating a "fact", then also post the source where you read this "fact". Right now, there is a feedback/bugreport about no night cycle being present in the game. The bugreport has been assigned to a developer ( Accolyte ). If it was, as you said, disabled by the devs, the report would have been closed immediately stating that! *cough* common sense *cough*

Source?

Whey hey! Its been assigned to Accolyte!

Amazing that you need to do some digging into this, since its been reported on the feedback tracker on march 25th.. http://feedback.dayzgame.com/view.php?id=10194 I understand you guys are busy, but get some students/unemployed ( DayZ fans! ) to acknowledge and assign reports/bugs to developers and provide feedback to the people reporting issues. There's enough work there for at least a part time job, and it doesn't take a 'rocket' scientist to do it..

Subbed, keep it up dude!

So, lets see the original video's you've made so far then... Your comment was uncalled for, really! At least some people are doing something for others to enjoy, and then there's people like you.. just go away, and come back when you have the decency to say something nice, or nothing at all @ Jigga: Thanks for the video m8, I enjoy watching DayZ videos, and don't have the video editing skills to do them myself ( or the time )

There have been no night time servers since patch 0.42.. Also, it would be nice if a dev/mod would acknowledge this here on the forums, or on the feedback tracker: http://feedback.dayzgame.com/view.php?id=10194 - and if possible a reason why there is no night time at the moment ( Bug or intentional )

Haven't played since latest patch, so this sounds great! Are there night servers again as well, or are all servers still daytime ( even though the server time says after 22.00h..?

If you want to correct someone, at least use proper English yourself, and don't be a jerk about it... There are probably more non-English players here, than there are native English speaking players.Also, your other remark, about getting a better ISP, is just rude and uncalled for. Just because YOU don't have issues, doesn't mean everyone else has a shitty ISP... Get your head out your arse, and come out into the real world, you might like it...

I posted before about joining a night server, but it being daylight ingame. It seems the zombies are "acting" as if it's a dark night, and being unaware of players at some times

I love the current zombie mechanics ( minus the clipping - but they're constantly working on that, so that'll be fixed ). As a new spawn, just outside Solnichny ( or however its spelled ), I managed to run into the woods, without being seen. I found a hoe in a barn somewhere, and a can of spite. It takes about 4 or 5 hits to take a zombie out, and if you keep moving/strafing, taking out 5+ zombies would be no issue. You dont have zombies respawning, if you dont shoot, and you wont have that many chasing you either. I managed to stay alive until now, with no gun equipped at all, for 4 or 5 hours. Going from town to town, staying low, see which way zombies are looking and flank around them to hit them in the back. I have no problems, what so ever, looting complete towns, without even using a bandage... I dont see what all the fuss is about.. Yes, zombies are faster, at least I dont have to wait that long for them to come to me, so I can bash their heads in :)

So, after playing for a solid 6 hours ( on 3 different servers, because of restarts ), here's my log :) - Zombies, LOVE THEM. I love how they spawn when you're shooting one and their speed is amazing. I've nearly soiled my pants several times ( which is a good thing :D ) - New food, new weapons, new hats, all the new goodies basically, great! - Game seemed to run a lot better, until the last hour of playing, where I kept rubberbanding, while sprinting. ( double tap ) Normal running was fine - Police stations ( new ones ) and medical centers are a great addition. Especially since the zombies hurt again, and make you bleed :) What I did notice though, the night servers, were in fact daylight ( all 3 of them ) - tested with 2 friends, who confirmed the time was 22.00 ( or later ), and the sun was hurting my and their eyes

Did you even read the last 4 or 5 pages of this thread?

I'd be happy if they tested it on a few experimentals first for a few hours, before they take all stable servers down...

Hey man, learn to read! Look at who/what you quoted in your post, and who that person was answering... Yes, me! So, even though you think you weren't talking about my post, you in fact were. And still being disrespectul now, to me... Guess that DOES show what your normal attitude is..You get me, dawg?
