MADNESS (DayZ)

Is there anything past the black loading screen, with the waterfall sound in the background? I joined my first server, spawned 10 feet from a zombie who started gnawing my face. Next server I joined, can't seem to pass the loading screen. Would love an explanation for why that may be.

It's reassuring that you can at least play the game. Some of us can't get past a loading screen. That's a pretty large failure, if you ask me.

You aren't alone. I just got the game yesterday as well; same problem. If a reinstall doesnt work, I will be seeking a refund with Steam - Not worth my hassle/time to deal with a game mod that's very poorly organized, and very poorly supported.
