whet (DayZ)

On the other thread someone reported he got his key replaced by the german publisher, so if BIS will not help you should try that: http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/55668-cd-key-in-use-issues/

Thats good news, thanks for letting us know. And from the other thread:

I continued the research abit, and beside the keygen thing i found this : http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/40664-server-admins-stealing-guids-for-spoofing/

Yeah, thanks. My key worked for almost 2 months and suddenly this happens :( .

Can you guys pls move over to this thread : http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/55668-cd-key-in-use-issues/. So we can ve all ppl in one thread to link it and stuff.

Iam afraid it will turn out that BIS says our keys are comprimised and its our fault (malware, gave our keys away). Then they wont replace anything and we would have to beg at the german publisher or our retailer, and they wont replace it neither ..... What i can see is , that several people (mostly german speaking region with retail versions) started to have the same problem around the same time, so we did all the same mistake or something is fishy with the arma key system/servers. Either way, its pretty disapointing...

Oh dear , that doesnt sound good, i will try to peter games too over the weekend, but i mean its like 10+ ppl now on this forums....

Well i just installed arma 2 on the ssd since the chernarus map is used, OA is on a normal hdd, works for me.

Well i start to see a pattern here, in the other thread (http://dayzmod.com/f...g-my-character/) theres another german player with this problem, he has Arma:CO retail tho.

Some ppl have the same issue, post what arma version you own in this thread please: http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/55668-cd-key-in-use-issues/

Hey, yeah ive the same problem, got the dvd box of arma x from a german retailer.

Its not just about dayz, i cant play arma online anymore.

Ive a retail dvd box.

Well i get now the "cd key in use" message and someone else is playing my character, surely i never gave this key to anyone....

Okay this is happening to me now too. Seems like someone else has played with my character aswell. Had no problems with my arma X copy before. I contacted BI support.

Forgot to ad that i had ghillie suite on me.

Just spawned today with different gear on another location. Tried to restore my old char and died, didnt worked. Not sure what happend there :\ .

Thats proably not a sniper, sounds like 40-50m away max.

Main menu, corner down right.

Well if you dont have the knowledge it can be very tricky, even for me its sometimes try and error and ive 20 years of experience with stuff like that, you have to have some patience tho. But you are right some ways, a good amount of users have to research more before posting here.

?!?

Not sure about the steam version, ive arma x retail. I had to download the 1.60 update from arma2.com, then delelete the expensoins/beta folder, then update to 94700, and i copied the beta .exe into the main AO folder, because ive sound problems otherwise.

Which patch version does your arma mainscreen state ?

You need the 94700 betapatch for this build.
