A friend had a Ghillie suit and lost it on login (had civilian clothing), but nothing was lost on his inventory.

Went back into the test server, did my best shooting every single zed I came across (not sure if that helps making more respawn). I fell down from a chimney and after passing out (shock, broken leg, bleeding, 2K damage, seemed low damage btw, I fell down from a chimney, 15 m. maybe?) the game volume got really really low but never recovered when shocked status went away. I consulted with other players and some guy got shock and passed out on login and had the same audio issue (no broken leg or bleeding). Permanent low volume after passing out with shocked status.

OK, I joined and tried a bit. I went as close as 5 m. from the side of zombies crouch running uphill (they were at the top), they were two and I approached by their 4, no aggro. I had 307 - 328 ms in that server, and understandably was choppy, but it was the same choppiness I had with 1.7.1.5 at 150 ms. With 1.7.2 (other server) in a 150 - 180 ms server the game runs incredibly smooth now. EDIT: Forgot to mention, when I joined the server, I got the stat table you see when you die but no "You are dead" background, then appeared in debug lands, then back to where I was, absolutely nothing in the inventory and my dead body right next to me with all my stuff intact.

This is usually plagued by what's not asked in the main post, but still. Just confirming the FPS and lag (fix) improvements, I play with 140-190ms in USA servers with a decent PC (i3-540, HD 5850 1 GB, 4 GB DDR 1333, GA-h55-USB3 Mobo) and had problems finding servers that allowed me to run the game smoothly, when 15-20+ players were around it would always get choppy no matter the server. I just tried 3 different servers with 140, 156, and 187ms, with 10, 15 and, 25 players and I just experienced smoothness all over my delicious screen.

Date/Time: 04.July.2012 - 1:10 GMT -3 What happened: We got teleported to a concrete structure full of water for half a second then back. A friend didn't fall on water and saw multiple people in the same place, lots of bodies and players fighting with hatchets. Where you were: Stary Sobor (2 people), Elektro (1 person). What you were doing: Walking (me) and checking a dead body (friend next to me). Current installed version: Beta 9444 Server(s) you were on: OCN Miami Florida Server. Your system specs: Intel i3-540 (2.9 GHz) - AMD Radeon HD 5850 1 GB - 4 GB RAM DDR 1333, Gigabyte GA-H55M-USB3 Mobo. Timeline of events before/after error: After leaving Stary Sobor military camp, we go NE, once above the hill we found a dead player, my friend starts checking it and the teleporting happens. Friend across the map (Elektro) experiences the same. He tells me it happened before we joined the server as well. Haven't had that issue in other servers so far. We disconnected right after fearing a character loss.

I can't thank you enough for this. Works perfectly, I don't need Six Launcher anymore (which was causing servers to show false, inflated pings or unresponsive) and incredibly, the game ran smoothly for the first time (sadly that didn't last long, after dying a few times it got really laggy). Again, thanks a lot!

The problem is that is the easier way for someone not familiar with Arma II (like me, bought the game just for the mod a few days ago) and it's even the recommended option in the mod front page.

Hello, I use the beta with Six Launcher and Steam (copying the beta executable to the main game folder), I think this is were the problem started; my settings are not getting saved. Every time I start with the default settings for video and controls. The game is not crashing on exit and the cfg and profile files are not read-only. When the game starts I get this error window: No entry. 'profilePathDefault'. After the error window the game starts, but with default settings every time.

This is a problem with Six Launcher when interacting with the Steam release and the beta update. The problem arises when the beta executable is replaced for the main executable (stable update) in the game main folder. Even tho this is the way is 'supposed' to work according the instructions given by Six Launcher itself, is what creates the problem.

OK, so the problem lies when using Six Launcher with Steam. Something is not working or is badly setup. Simply not using the Steam (under Options in Six Launcher) solves your problem immediately, so something about the path settings must be off. Weirdly enough, the game is still launched and playable.

I've tried 2x Left Ctrl and Right Ctrl + R and none works. The character only seems to 'change stance', but the hatchet stays in his hands resulting in an inability to sprint and having movement speed greatly reduced since it carries the hatchet in a ready-to-attack position (over the shoulder).

I just started the game (2-3 days ago) and I'm not completely familiar with controls yet. I was wondering if I was doing something wrong. Thanks for clearing that up.

Is not borderless, but just to add info, to get the window the size you want you need to modify Arma2OA.cfg in \My Documents\ArmA2\ (Win7). WinX=0; WinY=0; WinW=1920; WinH=1080; WinDefW=1920; WinDefH=1080; Source: http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?131165-Any-way-to-run-Arma-at-quot-windowed-full-screen-quot

Same problem here. Steam version. Problem started after replacing the beta exe file for the main armaoa.exe.

Oh, good to know. Gonna try server hopping to see if I can find one that works. If it's not much to ask, where did you find this info? I couldn't find anything.

Same issue. HD5850 1GB i3 540 @3.0GHz 4GB DDR 1333 The game was running fine on stable patch/1.7.0.

DISCLAIMER: Not whining, I'm eager to try the new difficulty, so far I haven't been able to. I gotta ask, new player here (2 days). I'm in the middle of the woods, no clearing, it's raining, using a green chemlight and the I can only see 3 feet forward, and I gotta look down, so I can only see grass. Is that working as intended? Is because the green chemlight is too weak? Besides nightvision (and I guess road flare would be a lot more powerful light source) is there anyway to deal with this? I just went into a nighttime server, tried to walk but I really couldn't do anything so I just drank a soda, ate some beans and logged off.

Same laggy issue. Remember that the BattleEye 16 error is serverside, you can keep trying until you connect or wait for the admins to fix their servers.

I'm a new player and I'm so excited about this update but BE error 16 doesn't let me :(
