I have this exact problem. Tried everything that Chris tried and nothing worked. I also cannot connect to those exact servers but every other server works perfectly.
Here is two screenshots to show you what i mean. http://i46.tinypic.com/2hy7zwh.jpg From that one above you can see the version number in the bottom right corner and on the top right im sure that i have the right text there. http://i48.tinypic.com/15s7qz8.jpg And from that screenshot above you can see my problem. I have put a rectangle around the version numbers. I dont know what to do i have reinstalled arma2 and arma2 OA about five times to try and start fresh. I have the games backed up from steam. Each time i tried a different method of installing but none of them worked. I did run the games once before i tried to install the mod and beta. I ran EVERYTHING in administrator mode. I tried running the game from each of the different exe's and .bat files but i get the same problem. Please help i really want to play with my friends.
I have this exact problem! Someone please help! I have the steam version of Arma2 and Arma OA. I have tried installing the mod and the beta so many times with so many different methods(incl, six updater) but NOTHING IS WORKING! I have been trying for three days. I need to install the latest beta for arma2 OA in order to join my local server but each time i try join it just says 'connecting failed'. I have followed so many tutorials TO THE LETTER and it installs fine and i can join the servers that are not running the beta. In the menu of arma2 OA in the bottom right it says that i am running v1.60.93825 which is the correct version that i need BUT when i enter the server browser it says my version: 1.60 Needed version: 1.60.93825 I am desperate now. Please help. Like i said i can join the servers that say version: 1.60
